Both of you are missing a key ingredient that the article goes over -- fanboyism. “A lot of people just felt that there was value in being able to work on anime that they loved,” Mr. Hirakimoto said. “No matter how little they got paid,

Been trying to build a PC for my daughter for weeks now, waiting for just a half decent GPU to become available. You can't find the 16*, 20*, or of course the 30* line of Nvidia available anywhere (except overpriced on Ebay), it&#x2

Surprised I don't see something about "context deadline exceeded" in there. This error has been plaguing me from Kubernetes 1.5 to 1.18, and nobody has a solid answer for it other than maybe it's Docker related. Soluti

Same -- it's one of the first programs I install. I wish the video conversion was simpler, more intuitive, and provided better feedback. My impression is you have to "stream" to convert a file, and then it just sort of happe

Still sounds better than a FIR. If you consider a big streamer with thousands of users. Users are constantly arriving and leaving, so the keyframe requests are going to be so constant that I can see keyframes being generated much more oft

How did this toxins guy keep getting ahold of Navalny's underpants? First he had to have access to them to put poison. Then he later got access to them again to scrub them clean of the poison. I guess Navalny has no security whatsoev

I smashed my middle toe into a table while play-chasing my dog around the house. I was instantly in enormous pain, but able to hobble around. Later that night, I was in so much pain that I literally could not walk at all. I was laughing a

Strange comments for HN. Elon moving has little to do with California vs Texas. This is totally expected from Elon, who likes to oversee new operations personally and whip everyone into shape. His "dislike" of California has litt

When I take my dog on walks she likes to roll in foul smelling stuff. I think it's poo, but I'm not sure. The resulting smell on her fur is very distinct (bad, but not really a poop smell). The other day she saw (smelled?) a gr

We use an inkjet because we need color. My wife is a teacher and prints often enough that the ink never dries up. What you need if you want to print ink often is an inkjet with CISS (continuous inkjet supply system). You used to have to h

Can you pay for private dentists, or similar, if you need more immediate service? And is the wait similar for major things like cancer, brain tutor, or heart surgery?

No they're not, at least here in California. Maybe you're thinking of warehouse jobs. Several people from my work have come over from Amazon, and we constantly interview people who either take Amazon over us (citing more $), or a

It is antitrust, I don't know why you're getting downvoted. Antitrust isn't just about monopolies, people. You can boil it down to a company having too much power and abusing this power to harm competitors which ultimately h

Amazon is also known for paying high tech salaries. And also known for being a shit place to work. It sucks, but they pay for it.

I'm an avid cloud gamer. I used GeForce NOW at first, but it had limited game selection. I use Shadow now and it is much better. I have full control over the PC/VM, and install whatever I want from anywhere. I'm also super

That title brought back memories of some really old MUDs that would let you chat escape codes (mostly meant to make colorful chats in ANSI color), and you could chat the bell escape code to make everyone's PC beep. But it also kind of

Which is exactly part of my point. I can play DRG for hours at a time, and it's a pretty one dimensional game. So there's no reason why something as complex as CIV can't thrive. His point that players don't have the a

I have hundreds of hours into Deep Rock Galactic, and I still play it almost every day. And I'm no anomaly - and there are plenty of games in a variety of genres that players stick with for hundreds of hours. Maybe Civ needs a little

I think Apple's argument would be it's industry standard. Steam, Apple, Google all do this. Even the Epic store takes a cut, although much lower, but that's a case in Apple's favor (market competition).

Apple has to move against Epic here. If they are acting fairly with all developers (which was one of the questions to Tim Cook), then letting this be would be showing favoritism towards Epic. Or...make a sudden update to their TOS
