I believe the first and second 20% but you’re saying 80% of completed games are never released? I’m curious why this would be the case if the bulk of the cost is already sunk.

The google photos image search is amazing. The other day I was trying to remember how long it had been since I smashed my toe doing yard work so I tried searching “toe nail” and it pulled up exactly the picture I was looking for.

Ethernet is by far the longest connection out of all of those, supporting up to 100 meters for 10G over copper and over 300 meters for fiber [1] which is pretty impressive. No other commodity interface comes close to that kind of range at

I can relate to this a lot. The one silver lining of the shameful, interminable hell that is procrastination is the random skills that come out of it. I was so dysfunctional at my last job during covid-induced WFH I found time to completel

I have the same problem. I got a the Neo G9 which can do 240hz but if I want 10-bit HDR it’s limited to 60hz on both my 2019 MBP and Geforce 1080 PC because neither supports HDMI 2.1 or DSC. Windows can do 8-bit + dithering at 120hz which

I've been using relational databases for web apps for my entire career and probably would have made this same mistake if using PlanetScale for the first time. The author had two misunderstandings: 1) An index isn't created automat

I was curious about this so given some numbers I found on the internet, an average MRI machine has about 1700 liters of liquid helium capacity and loses 48% of its helium over the course of a year. 1 liter of liquid helium expands to .74m^3

The height that containers can be stacked on sites in Long Beach outside of the Port of Long Beach are governed by the city's zoning regulations. Until today the limit was 2 containers, and all of the sites were occupied so there was

One small caveat, my parents always made a point of showing me the interest my savings account made on the monthly statement and it was like $2 which had the opposite effect they intended. You’ll probably have to offer a really high interes

The effects when vaping were not statistically significant in this study so we can’t say one way or another (according to this study).

According to this study your odds went up from 0.8% to 1.3% so it’s hardly dodging a bullet.

This happened to me. My T-Mobile number was ported to a hacker and they used it to get control of my GMail account. They then tried to use that to get at my Coinbase account. Luckily I had device 2FA enabled on that account so when they

Important to note that these numbers are for graduate level students. Still wild that well over 50% of masters, docs and postdocs in the US are are not US citizens. International students make up around 5% [1] of the undergraduate student

> Even at $500k/yr, it's 20 years—a whole working life—to make it to $10m Just one nitpick here, FAANG companies have 2-5x’d in the last five years so with $250k of equity in this example would have had an actual comp of $750k-

Overwatch still feels highly polished to me (few bugs, great lore, good performance, character design, responsive dev team communication) though new content have been seriously lagging due to OW2.

As someone whose been playing regularly for the past 4 years, 2-2-2 role lock was by far the biggest reduction in toxicity. It removed an entire class of bad communication like “switch off DPS” as well as the stress of convincing 5 strange

Plus Overwatch development has stagnated for the last year or so as their team has been focusing on Overwatch 2, which probably won’t even come out this year.

The idea with this proposal is to avoid browser fingerprinting. Cross site cookies are going away and there are essentially two possible paths for ad networks to compensate: a common approach like FLoC is adopted, or ad networks will conti

I don’t think that’s accurate. Products get resources allocated to them based on how commercially important they are. That’s not narcissism it’s business. Google Music was a solution for a generation where streaming subscriptions didn’t e
