You talked about the opening but now you’re linking to endgame tablebases? Not at all comparable.

Seems like nobody else cares about the inability to run Boot Camp on M1 Macs? There’s enough Windows-only software out there that I wouldn’t want to upgrade my older x86 MacBook Pro.

Assuming that it is indeed technically possible, is there any way to do it and not have it be an ethical nightmare?

It will go down to 0% in Germany in several months. Germany is shutting down its last six nuclear power plants and no new ones can be built. Italy, Switzerland and Belgium also want to shut down their nuclear power plants. Shameful, unscien

I wish people would specify how many restaurants they visited in each city they judge. I think 50 is the minimum before we can judge any city as a whole. NYC > Chicago > SF > LA > Miami.

It’s true that C++ is huge but the complaint should be about the lack of epochs that would let us simplify the language instead of about very useful new features such as concepts, modules, or constexpr. If you’re already programming in C++

I think that depends on the field and on your definition of “anyone.” I’d bet against an average 100 spatial/math IQ person being able to get a PhD in math or physics, even if hardworking and patient. They would probably be something l

Awesome to see projects like this! I have music-to-visual synesthesia when smoking pot and making something that shows how music looks to me is a project that I’d like get to sometime also. My problem is that I don’t really care to get high

Unfortunately, I haven’t found a modern replacement and I was searching everywhere about a year ago. Somebody else in this thread just mentioned the new Huawei MateView 3:2 but it’s 28” and it doesn’t seem to be currently available in the U

Your initial statement that job losses led to an increase in homicides is not supported by any data though. You’d have to establish this first before we can talk meaningfully about the financial status of households during the pandemic. Als

Not a strong evidence for sure but the loss of jobs is not a good explanation either since there hasn’t been a similar jump in homicides in other countries.

It’s hard to see why VR headsets with pass-through would win out over AR headsets (like the Hololens) in the long term for such uses. But I suppose if you need something right now, VR would be more available and cheaper.

There are good reasons for buying an EV but this article is not convincing. The author thinks an M3 is a “real sports car” (it’s definitely not), so no surprise that the article doesn’t talk about a big downside that makes EVs less fun to d
