I'm much more interested in the hardware driver. This thing gets digital encoded input, has to decode it, and then multiplex it to 8 million pixels. 60 times a second. Being able to hit at least 4 million different levels (talking abou

The difference between one and two is being able to link two things I did. If you know who I am, that barely affects me. But if you can then cross-check whether I also went ballroom dancing, or went to a golf course, or went to a sexclub, o

Put it in the parental controls feature of the browser. Parents have to turn it on. Parents get to decide if their kids can watch porn. The government helps parents enforce the rules parents want.

The issue is that currently, adding restrictions to what minors can do is expensive, both economically, and politically. It requires the cooperation of a lot of non-government appointed people, and many of them could (locally) sabotage the

Those bans are leaky, and physical. They aren't censorship, and (almost?) Exclusively ban services or sale of goods to underage people. They are also costly to implement, and require a lot of state effort to enforce. These digital chec

Zero knowledge proofs are the solution. The website sends the verification function to the user device. The user device then returns a proof that it knows an input that the verification function accepts. The verification function should inc

Does biochar remain in ground for long? How quickly does it decompose and rot?

Naively, you'd expect the tidal current to be proportional to (tidal range/water depth). Which causes that map to be a lot less informative.

This is a civil matter, is it not? This is the NYT suing OpenAI, which is not a criminal matter.

A type might have a generic parameter T, but e.g. use it as a phantom marker. Then even if T isn't cloneable, the type might still admit a perfectly fine implementation of clone.

Why does it need to be AI specific? This would be valuable for reviewing human code changes aswell right?

On humans, you can generally see the force they apply by looking at strain.

I came here to (wrongly) say that wooden disks were never used as wheels, and that ot all started with spokes. Some checking showed that, in fact, the oldest known wheels have a lot of solid disks. E.g: https://en.m.wikipedia.org

So, the problem was a local voltage oscilation, where the high voltages caused generators to shut off. How do these oscilations start? I understand that voltage isn't necessarily equal across the network, where frequency is. But that o

There's a whole escalation you are forgetting. Iran will retaliate, to which the US wilk respond. That yields a situation where neither side can back out, but neither is putting enough pressure in the other to force them to stop. The w

That is a massive oversimplification of the diplomatic failures on many sides here. You could just as easily say that doing regime change in a country will make them hate you, or that backing out of deals will make things worse, or that Isr

Do you think there will be boots on the ground? It seems more likely to me that Trump will escalate only through air attacks, fail to achieve much, and then either end the war by walking away, or throwing nukes. Quite different from the Ira

It is very likely false that Iran had nuclear weapons, or was within weeks of having them. This was also the position of US intelligence, until they were forced by higher-ups to speak different words. Of course, Iran very much wanted the ab

An other compatible explanation is that they wanted ambiguity about their weapon production. Besides, wasn't this whole thing triggered by a UN report showing they had made a lot more 50% enriched stuff than expected? I.e. the monitori

My experience on the Caledonian sleeper, in a 'room' was quite cramped in all senses (I am over 6 feet tall), and quite expensive aswell. If that had been optimized better, I would have enjoyed it more.

As far as I know, most real screens decided to have different display based on HDR or SDR input. Mostly because on HDR they are more willing to do very high brightness for a very small part of the screen. Most displays have the ability to s

No, you can do it safely. The idea is to have the password renewal process also ask for the previous password. This means the password changing method doesn't need to store a plaintext password, but still has access to the old plaintex

By what authority can they actually use violence to guard these federal workers and buildings? Not the insurection act, and so not at all due to pose comitatus. What can they do to guard then?

That's great for the non Trump side! If the 'theory of change' is we will protest peacefully, get the authorities to violently surpress us to get wide sympathy and show the wider world how horrible the government is. Then you

Nonviolent protest doesn't need to be respectable. It needs the moral high ground. That means you need to goad the enforcement to use violence against you. This doesn't just work by getting the public on your side. It works by sho

Isn't it going to take a tipping point to get republicans to impeach Trump, or at least reign him in? And if Trump isn't reigned in, it seems to me the US will backslide into authoritarian (light) facism. So a tipping point is req
