At a 500kHz clock rate, with reasonable rise/fall times, the electrical effect of some 0.1" headers is minuscule. "Microstrip transmission lines" are enormous overkill.

Charging a fee based on sales would be reasonable. That's what Unreal Engine does (5% of gross revenue after the first $1 million). Charging a flat fee per installation , even for games that have already been developed and released

Based on this, it seems like Unity's real goal is to achieve perfect price discrimination. For each game that gets sufficiently popular, they can fiddle with their unreviewable "proprietary" metric until it matches whatever t

And even if you assume they only charge for legitimate, authorized installations -- what about free demos? This seems to create a massive disincentive to make those available.

This page implements regex matching , not searching. So in effect, every pattern has an implicit ^ at the beginning and $ at the end.

"Structure from motion" refers to the process of reconstructing camera poses and a sparse point cloud from a set of images (or video). That's the input to the scene reconstruction process described in this paper. As far a

As far as I can tell, the author seems to be trying to simultaneously use two separate definitions of "consciousness": 1. Something which results in "qualia" 2. Something which arises by a non-mechanistic process and the

I'm concerned about the opposite possibility. All the effort will go into tweaking models and adjusting their training data until they generate acceptable output, and documentation for human consumption will be an afterthought.

But what is "misuse", then, if not something that causes a bug? "Misuse" is not a formally defined thing in Java, and the authors never define what they mean by it. > If adding the bugs you mentioned, the buggy code g

I'm sympathetic to the viewpoint that GPT-4 is prone to mistakes when writing code. Unfortunately, the analysis in this paper is pretty bad and doesn't support that conclusion. The authors assume that for any given method under co

Easily. For instance, if a movement portrays itself as being supported by the common people and against the elites, then one possible next step is to argue that the mechanisms of democracy have been perverted by those elites, and therefor

No, you can't. If you'd like an analogy from 3D modeling to see why not: Any polyhedral mesh has an integer called its "Euler characteristic", which is simply calculated by taking the number of vertices, subtracting the

Yes, TSP is in NP. Strictly speaking, the only problems in NP are decision problems, so when we say "TSP is in NP", we're talking about the "decision version of TSP": given a graph G, does there exist a Hamiltonia

If RTSCs turn out to be viable, they would reduce power transmission costs by maybe 10% for our current infrastructure. That's just because we don't build power lines over distances where the losses would be much greater than th

The theory of general relativity says that "gravity" and "distorted space(-time)" are one and the same phenomenon. So it's a question of whether you believe that theory is correct. We've known for a long time t

Although I can sympathize, I don't really understand the point of opening a new issue when all the same information has already been left in comments on the old closed issue. If the new issue gets closed, then it just reaffirms that th

The whole point of the GIL is that even if you use Python's threading or asyncio, you don't get any benefits from scaling beyond a single CPU core, because all of your threads (or coroutines) are competing for a single lock. They

Not in general, no. Docker image layers are just snapshots of the filesystem changes that result from build commands. But there is nothing that guarantees that the effects of those commands are reproducible. For example, it's incredi

It is easy to write a regexp with backreferences that cannot be represented by any DFA. So I'd say the correctness of your implementation is doubtful. For example, the language defined by the regexp /([ab]*)\1/ is neither r

This is sarcasm, right? If not: in general, in the US, it's perfectly legal for a company to just arbitrarily decide they need to fire N people, and arbitrarily choose a particular person to fire meet that "quota". This is tr

Yes, from the Google-cached version, it appears that the thread previously didn't have the app-not-working tag; it was only tagged with "rails". Not going to try and guess why or when that tag change happened. Personally, I&#

There's also a lock icon next to the "App not working" category in the header, which I took to mean that that entire category is hidden from logged-out users (which experimentally seems to be the case).

It looks like all 166 threads with the "App not working" tag are invisible when not logged in. So I'm guessing somebody applied that tag retroactively. https://community.fly.io/c/questions-and-help/a
