I can tell you exactly how I noticed it because it was on my workstation this reproduced originally. I have a Ryzen 9 5950X CPU and it has a crazy fan ramp. Anytime a process maxes out the CPU it will be audible to me when I'm working.

This is so fitting because even if Microsoft is deprecating and giving up on this monstrosity the executable is still sitting there. Serving legacy web apps that should have been abandoned a long time ago...

This thing branched horribly. You had to use instructions to selectively write to distinct memory locations to avoid typical branching because misprediction was expensive. This was Frostbite/Battlefield 3 era. Good Times.

Yes, we're spending the summer in Denmark. If we like what we see this is the best option. It all hinges on how this year's election goes. I don't know why I believe we can change but I hope we bring about something new and s

HDMI is pretty prevalent. I don't see any consumer electronics supporting much else...

You expect some enormous sea monster but all you got was some kind of immortal sea weed. Trees have this thing as well. Many tree organisms are 100 000 years old. There's also some kind of distinction between tree organisms and tree in

It's sounds like you'd be interested to live in my country (born and raised here, I'm almost 40 now and have two kids, happily married etc) but I don't think you know all too much about Sweden. And if you really want to

Sweden, the way I think we should look at it is the discrepancy between what my employer is paying me and what I receive in my bank account. That's 51.8% of what I make. That is the government is taking just slightly more than half of

N=1 isn't an argument either. I'm simply saying what a lot of people in my situation also thinks. It's just sensible that you don't stay because you like paying taxes. You stay where you are because of family and friends

No it's not. I'm currently contemplating leaving my country of residence because absurd tax rates. I'm a productive member of society and high earner but I'm starting to loose faith in my institutions. If you keep on tax

We should all learn from this and understand that if we don't fight for and uphold our liberties they will be taken away from us. Every fight matters and if it wasn't for the US constitution this might have gone down very differen

Politics aimed at making a specific type of energy unprofitable by taxing it to death is not. It's activism. Sweden cannot depend on solar alone, we have plenty of hydro in the northern parts of the country and wind doesn't work d

So, what's your argument? That people won't buy nuclear energy on an open market or that an open market for nuclear energy doesn't exist? In Sweden, where I live, about half of our electricity is from nuclear. It's built

by john567 4y ago
See, now I know you're just lying because the equation isn't at all the same across all countries. Maybe you don't like nuclear and that's fine but you don't have to lie about it.

What county are we talking about here?

Well the messaging should be positive. Maybe we someday can have a public informed discussion on health. I don't think shaming will work too well but we have to acknowledge that being fat is not good. But also that it's a fixable

This is exactly their conclusion. > Our suggestions are very prosaic: Be nice to yourself. Eat mostly what you want. Trust your instincts. > > Diet and exercise won’t cure obesity, but this is actually good news for diet and exerc

??? Fission is incredible profitable. It's the only source of reliable electricity we have (with a negligible CO2 impact). The only reason fission isn't more profitable is politics. Politics are making investment and research into

This must be part of some disinformation effort to streer people away from the simple answer. Their conclusion is that you're helpless if your fat and that's just not true. The idea that this is not in your hands is ridiculous. If

I've been doing this long enough and I know this stuff well. If you want a simple answer there is one. It's all about the nutritional quality of the food you eat. Everything is down stream from that. We can go into all the specifi

Not talking about fortification. Food processing in this context means taking food through some incredible steps in order to create a cheap, "addictive" product you can sell. This often involves adding some kind of sugar.

This is false because everything isn't metabolized the same. I don't like this idea of trying to apply physics. It's not the right model. Simple example, you eat only protein and fat, you don't gain weight. You substitut

by john567 4y ago
Look, Given what you just shared, I'd guess your metabolism is quite high. That just means it takes more for you to put on weight. If you're young then this even less of an issue. For me, a lot of sugar has about the same effect a

If you have to ask, I firmly believe you're overthinking it.

Everything went pretty much sideways around 1960s right about the time the processed food industry came to be. Hmm...

No. It is absolutely not a virus... Most of what you can buy in a grocerie store is bad for you. It has been optimized for profit, i.e. consumption. Then you can of course pile on all kinds of contributing factors but this isn't necess

> And, despite our best efforts, we still don’t have a single good answer as to the cause of obesity’s rapid rise in prevalence. What compelled this person to write that sentence!? I know he's looking for a very technical answer but

According to Swedish newspaper Expressen, this is happening on Monday. I guess it's for the best. I've not really held a position on NATO but the whole point of the alliance is to not allow for the kind of war that is taking place

And nature is messy. And this is a very natural way for us to do things. And much in the spirit of evolution. And competition in an open market. It's a healthy thing though some software projects probably should just go and die already
