I would if I could but time, age, and circumstances prevented it. I just think "not having internet" is very low on the list of concerns, and if it isn't, maybe those people need to re-evaluate their situation and priorities.

Yes? These people are supposed to go fight wars for us and defend our freedom... I would expect them to be making a lot of sacrifices, the lack of Internet being a relatively minor one.

My friend got a "Running an Amber" ticket when we were teens outside metro Detroit, MI. I had never heard it called that color before but that small memory is always on my mind when the light changes as I'm crossing.

At least in V8, wasm is handled by the same internals as javascript is. Its processed by the same optimization passes and turned into machine code by the same backend which generates the machine code for js. While I'm not sure how muc

There is research coming out that vertical solar panels are more efficient. I think part of it comes from lower temps allowing for more efficient operating. No tracking or pointing required. Less cleaning as its not a flat surface for dust

I think it's still splitting hairs. Even though I sent my prints out to be printed by shapeways or whatever, I still tell people "I made" those parts.

Honestly, Web3 is partially it now. If you remove the hype and buzzwords, you are left with a bunch of individually addressable contracts that can all be composed and integrated together seamlessly under a single web frontend. I remember ye

This is kinda similar to what Caves of Cud did. Pretty much wrote the entire game from scratch and then used Unity as a dumb renderer/UI handler/multi platform support. When the licensing fiasco happened the creator spent a live s

It seems impolite to make up your opponent's argument and then make commentary about it. Maybe let them respond?

This is how it works around me in Detroit. I know the intervals for different routes and for 15min or less it's not a huge deal to wait. There is a major route that runs only once an hour so I will look up the exact schedule or the liv

Trail cams have to be set by humans. Humans leave a scent. Maybe they evolved to blacklist any area that at any time smelled like a human.

> they have to be specialized in avoiding humans Exactly. What I find even more crazy is how other species of Homo were around until just 30,000 years ago and maybe as recently as 12,000. I find a lot of people have the perception that i

I don't think so? They use voxels under the hood but still render smooth graphics with techniques like marching cubes. I think you are underestimating voxels or don't understand how they are applied in modern game development. If
