A redeeming factor is that approximately no one is using the SVT-AV1 decoder, it's almost only for encodes, where you don't care as much since there's nothing privileged in your encoding container besides the current input be

Even if this is obviously true, that does nothing to support the original statement. That's a whole different claim that you had to fall back to. Which is a motte-and-bailey type of argument.

Zero chance, unfortunately. The cause of tinnitus is not with the OTOF gene. The best case scenario is that this wouldn't do anything.

Trying to figure out which melody was which in an emergency doesn't seem like the most human-friendly. Contrast with the GPWS warnings in aviation, which tells you what the problem is (TERRAIN TERRAIN) and what to do (PULL UP) in a pro

The stop condition is that the bots just die miserably after sitting around, because they run out of items, or the monsters scale faster than them, or they run into one of the thousands of funny/stupid ways you can die in NetHack. Ther

That's just any big framework. Porting a large codebase between major releases of GTK (or Javascript frameworks) isn't much better.

That number theory book looks like something I'd really enjoy reading. I assume you must have enjoyed the experience, but I'm curious how easy it is for everyone to move at the same pace on such a technical topic, where everyone m

Only questions are closed as duplicates. Stackoverflow is strict and pedantic to the point of being very unfriendly to newbies, but it doesn't close things at random. If you want to criticize Stackoverflow, there's plenty of solid

Complexity has different meanings. People don't generally go and assign objective metrics of complexity to proofs, besides how long it is. You could try to draw the stack of abstractions necessary to understand the proof and see how hi

It's not useful if you're trying to measure the tradeoff, but it paints a clear picture for everyday use. If I'm just loading a web-page or playing a non-AAA game like Terarria, I don't care whether I get 300fps or 200fp

It's fairly easy to make a turing machine that goes exponential and blows up forever. But the really tricky part to understand is why it eventually stops . After an unimaginably high number of steps.

Or rather, have a reputable source write an article about your work. If you write the news article about your own work and they publish it, the article is still a primary source (despite not being self-published)!

They sure are! I think the parent comment to mine was edited, and now my reply looks weird. This is what I remember replying to: "If you want monetary compensation you should not be contributing to Wikipedia"

That's exactly what almost all knowledge is. When was it that you last verified something by yourself, with an experiment? You didn't test the things you know. You know things because you could see they were the consensus, and so

No. Projects sometimes stop offering the previous license and start using a different one for new work . But if your project is Apache-2, you cannot take away someone's license after the fact. You can only stop giving away new Apache-

I feel like not being able to treat data as code and code as data limits the strategy a lot. You can't read what code is in a cell, you can only read and write data. So you can't do self-modifying code, beyond blindly copying an e

How close is broad ballpark, have you tried chromaprint? It's probably far from state of the art today, but you can get a percentage similarity out of it. I've successfully used it to find similar (or outright duplicate) songs in

There's a lot of truth to be found out there that is useful, technical, and utterly devoid of public attention. But if the truth-seeking you're thinking of is being a culture war truther, that'd certainly explain the woes.
