The harder it is to learn, the more it takes you to change your mind. It's hard to see things without bringing baggage Also, the irony of complaining about HN holy wars becoming just another trigger to continue! I'll do my part -

It doesn't have to imply that developers are lower quality for this to be a troubling signal - if you close an existing office that is doing good work to save money, that shows where your priorities lie. And I agree with your sentiment

Yeah that is curious if consoles shipped with compressed audio but not PC. The prevailing wisdom on PC is codecs are easier to deal with due to dedicated audio thread. Decisions like that are not made lightly so now I’m curious what the rea

That’s literally my startup, I won’t get deep into the reasons why good tools for this don’t exist yet, but if you imagine game development is like regular development but with orders of magnitude more chaos you can understand how difficult

Couple of things to note: MP3 is not appropriate for use in real time due to a variable amount of silence added to the start of the sample intrinsic to the compression. You can sometimes use it for music But if there’s any changes based on

On the whole this is right, but over simplified - at least in my experience. I know first hand a bunch of people who lived in dumbo in manhattan 5-10 years before it became gentrified and there was a collective sense that it was just a matt

I still feel it’s a conspiracy theory but Jack Ma is absolutely being targeted. He was beloved by the Chinese media as a motivational speaker as well as a business man, when he started not speaking highly of CCP (which is tantamount to crit

This feels more like “uncanny valley isn’t caused by what you think” rather than “it’s not a thing”. It’s simply easier to get proportions that we are most used to (IE average proportions of facial features across everyone we’ve met) when y

It’s not a conspiracy theory, it’s a very real thing that all the major players do and a bunch of 3rd party startups as well. Logging in from same browser, showing similar habits on the same IP from home, etc. it’s typically part of data en

This is probably it. There are some companies that just can't be bootstrapped, the up-front cost is too high. There are some that would suffer from the high-growth demands of VC. If you've got a plan that starts with high-fixed co

I'm not sure Jordan Peterson is trying resurrect Christianity, but maybe he's trying to resurrect Jung. He uses myths to understand collective unconscious (which is the really interesting part of his work) and then uses those meta

This is a good summary of what I understand about the work, though admittedly I haven't processed the whole thing. It's a fascinating read, though he spends more time talking about what meaningness is not rather than what it is. L

Quick google shows that subset of kexts still allowed. I updated to Big Sur last week and installed kernel extensions for exactly this reason.

Interface is great, I’d pay for “easier OBS” to reduce cognitive load when presenting a dynamic presentation (I’ve used mmhmm for conference talks and sales and investment pitches). Why I don’t use mmhmm is the CPU load, compositing screen

Hukou is what I was referring to. It's not just welfare, but distribution of state money (like USAs census) and in some places required to purchase property in that area. Most ignore the requirement (like they do many rules), so I unde

No, only foreign nationals must register when visiting places. Chinese citizens only must register at the police station when moving - though as if often the case, many people ignore such rules. I just meant that the state is tracking where

I'll read more about it, but the thickness/stiffness of the cochlea resonates at frequencies with sensitivity that matches our ability to distinguish frequencies - it has been removed from the inner ear and resonance tested outsid

In your example saying that the ear doesn’t work as an FFT, I think you’re confusing physical processes (the ear) with perceptual processes (psychoacoustics and interaction between the brain and ear). The cochlea itself is a physical FT, ba

This is bigger than Apple, it would be a massive precedent if they pull it off. And it gets to my major concern with the possible merging of iOS and MacOS. I don't mind curation on my phone, but it's a deal breaker for my PC
