Hey I independently came to this as well! We were performing some migrations to our servers and we weren't sure we had nailed the process down. Automating the procedure has a problem in that I can't just "reset" the serv

>in Wind Waker you must rescue your sister, but in practice the player is running around an island, breaking pots, and doing sidequests. The narrative plot and the play actions are almost totally disparate. If you're looking for a s

Some VR looks pretty good, I think The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners looks great! But of course, good proper unjank VR seemingly requires a 5x GPU power increase. You need 90+ FPS, two screens, high rez, and responsive. It's a prett

I'd never thought about placebo's being a social mechanism. As a bit of a tangent, one of things I've always wondered is "how much pain do animals feel compared to humans?" The null hypothesis here would be that the

I wonder if there might be a way to map all these using t-SNE to discrete grid locations? Maybe even an autoencoder. I'd love to see what features it could pick out. I don't see their data set though. hmmm. maybe I'll just ha

Because the visual difference between abusive telemetry and benign or useful telemetry is 0. Same with disclosures. And we are a very abused culture sitting in the middle of what I hope is peak surveillance capitalism. Beat someone with a s

Your comment I think is on point. The article here makes it sound more... sophisticated than it is. https://www.xda-developers.com/fbi-backdoor-pixel-arcaneos-a... Unlocking the phone with a normal PIN code shows some n

In some vein they kind of do this by letting you like or dislike videos. The problem is almost all of them see this as an opportunity to signal others. Which means that your likes and dislikes are also value judgements, that you may or may

I'm sure if party A doesn't fix it, party B will totally fix it! Definitely. Oh, but maybe you're right, if we all just collectively decided for party C, then things would really work. Huh, I guess party C can't get in b

Well, I think the point here is that you don't become good or evil, or do harm or not do harm, by virtue of being big or small. Yet that seems to be the primary axis on whether legislation pampers its target or not.

If you would like a very silly reason, sometimes I want to copy logs to other devs really quickly from a server, but exporting them to a file and then rsyncing it back is just a bunch of commands and files I don't want to deal with. Be

If you're on linux, Check out Minder, An open source mind mapping tool. It has a task list feature where you can convert sub items to tasks and it's just PERFECT for this style of task tracking. https://i.imgur.com&#x2F

It sure is tempting to think of heat as just energy. I mean it is. Of course. But the kind of device you're talking about is like Maxwell's Daemon. The article is talking about a step towards making an inexpensive thermocouple. T

This is tough. Pretty clearly what's happening here is shot spotter is producing a probability distribution about the places where a shot may have been fired, but they're not showing that information, they're showing a point.

You may enter into an agreement with someone, and you may break it, and you may be subject to penalties. But we don't allow chains to be placed on someone in service of a contract. We don't have debtors prisons. We see the chance

the difference between a mid tier nvme drive and a top tier nvme drive isn't that big. 1.5GB/s or 3GB/s (numbers made up, I don't know the actual specs), That's still crazy fast. The impact here would be minimal.

They're similar in an actual sense. The pretty little UI in front of us is a facade for the reality of events. Having a legal framework that rests atop the foundations of a delusion is absolutely something we should chafe at, and not j

It really chafes me that that somehow "looking at a video on a computer" managed to find itself legally distinct from "downloading it".

It really does come down to the particulars here, but there is serious value in making UI consistent between applications. Every time a user comes to an application they have to figure out the primitives from the ground up. Where things go

I mean, such a system already exists when players do analysis of their matches. The thing that makes a move identifiable as a blunder is that a chess engine evaluating the board before and after the move. It's also worth keeping in min
