I think the popularity of Twitter is due to people not wanting to express complex or nuanced thoughts. If it weren't Twitter, somebody else would be in that space. It seems to me that the ones who are participating in such networks n

I don't quite know how to feel about this. Perhaps it is my mistrust against Zoom, but I did enjoy the run Keybase had as a semi-independent key and ID manager.

When it comes to TechCrunch's website, there are many more reasons to avoid it besides their cookie wall.

Very much in line with my experience, but in fact for me it wasn't even 'being quite good at,' but just sufficiently managing and exceeding minimum expectations. In my college years that was, for example, studying, working, a

It's still absurd to me that you can get a full account ban for anything , no matter how big or small. Why aren't these bans more fine-grained? Is it so difficult?

Can anybody explain why the researchers are attempting to generate the whole song as a single waveform, as opposed to wiring generated MIDI into some instruments and separately a singing algorithm (perhaps a bit easier than the whole bulk w

I wonder if it can be filtered out, on the other hand. Does anybody have knowledge on audio fingerprinting/watermarking? Or is it perhaps security theater?

Fun fact: iOS app icons are not rounded rectangles (rectangles with 90 degree arc corners) but squircles, which are roughly superellipses with n=5. The linked Wikipedia articles also remark this.

I would go as far as to argue that Factorio is my Animal Crossing. For your average, casual player, Animal Crossing provides rote tasks that engages you with the game world without the added complexity. Factorio, SdV, and AC all ultimatel

Memorised a 14 character (incl. punctuation) password after attempting that, and really didn't take me long, unfortunately.

Maybe the OP was American, they always get a high markup on European foods (see another comment on mid-grade Danish butter).

Kerrygold is not expensive enough that I feel bad about using it to toast my hamburger buns. I also vouch for that, delicious (yet not incredible ).

Has the rise of AMD led to a shift in talent going their way as well? Not sure how the loyalty dynamics are in the chip engineering industry.

I have a question for all the physics nerds here: The surface of the Earth is not quite flat. When you consider the sheer radius of it, it can be approximated as such, but it isn't. Do geographical features (massive mountains and deep

Looks quite neat, I'm happy to see more interest in these markets! Also, "SHA256 encryption to ensure your user's data will always be safe and never compromised." confuses me, as that is a hash function, not encryption m

Currently the compiler gives "not a type" when the brackets are removed; I agree that it might be to disambiguate, but it's confusing and redundant syntax. I expect { } to be used strictly for blocks in Rust.

See Nemo157's response to cerebellum42. He explains why having this in runtime is not the best approach for FSMs.

Quick plug for Miniconomy ( https://www.miniconomy.com/ ), a lighter, more gamey game. It's quite fun, and focuses more on the microeconomic (in fact, nanoeconomic, perhaps?) mechanics of the economy; trading, shops, uni

Honestly, this is simply sci-fi to me. The fact that we have companies providing satellite communication infrastructure, just extremely futuristic. Am I just too slow with the catching up?

I think Rockstar truly took that attention to detail to the next level with Red Dead Redemption 2. Everything is taken into account, down to the animal behaviour. You can even spot birds! https://www.audubon.org/news/bi

There must be a mod for that, flipping the polarising filter already does wonders.

It is quite a large sum of money and if there has been no official statement from the company which did the offloading, then it is said to be quietly.

To me, pgAdmin seemed like a very light header on the administrative (hah) end of pg. Checking which instances are running, and seeing if the databases are healthy etc.

I'm not sure if you're left over from 2007, but practically all Nvidia GPUs since 2008 have had double precision arithmetic. Integers are still compiled to 32-bit, sometimes, but doubles have been standard for quite a while.

Are we missing f64 and other 64-bit integer types because of... JavaScript? Again!?
