From your own link: > There’s no proof that ejaculating more actually lowers the chances of prostate cancer. For now, doctors just know they’re connected. It may be that men who do it more tend to have other healthy habits that are lower

I think for media/assets, CC-BY is the equivalent of MIT/BSD for source, and CC-BY-SA similar to a GPL. Anything more restrictive than that (e.g., "NC") wouldn't really qualify as "free". The licensing in

Phones should be banned in school. Really that simple. No serious school/parent that cares about the kids' education would allow phones.

Someone's not grounded in reality. I'm ready to be grounded for this comment.

This doesn't hold at all. Path tracing doesn't "just work", it is computational infeasible. It needs acceleration structures, ray traversal scheduling, denoisers, upscalers, and a million other hacks to work any close to

Except that it isn't like that at all. All you get from the driver in terms of ray tracing is the acceleration structure and ray traversal. Then you have denoisers and upscalers provided as third-party software. But games still ship wi

I thought this was sarcasm, but it isn't. Seems like a very weird choice to me to build network infra on top of Python. C/Rust would have been the more obvious choice since you can then bind to that from any language (at least wit

Investment disclosure? Forcing Chrome to display a search engine choice doesn't even begin to solve the issue. Chrome spies on you regardless, and it also banned UBO and other ad-blocking extensions. It is a product made to deliberatel

It advertises that it runs locally and that it is "extensible" but then requires you to set up a remote/external provider as the first step of installation? That's a rather weird use of "local" and "extens

I think that comment is a copy-paste mistake. If you look at the next code snippet, the comment actually makes sense there. That being said, I've also given up on C++ and learn it mostly to keep up with the job, if that's where yo

You put it well. It should also be noted that the embargos and tariffs will only sabotage the US's own interests in the long term, as if the Chinese were not intelligent enough to make their own in-house technology. Wait until their ow

Well, I can't wait for the day when Microsoft just disappears. All their life trying to stifle innovation and competition, and here we are again, where this time they have essentially been scammed by OpenAI thinking that they could pul

Yeah, that's what I thought. I wasn't tracking what GP meant to imply. Both people and companies have been moving to Austin recently.

Interesting. But the time here is basically "indefinitely", the place one that affects 150m+ people, and the manner the most draconian possible. Not a lawyer, but that seems like overreach to me.

The propaganda works well indeed. People taking sides is perhaps the saddest part of this story since the politics can be well understood with just a little review of history. You put it well in saying that none of the two are on your side.

So you've never worked on a code base with a 3-level+ deep inheritance tree and classes accessing their grandparent's protected member variables and violating every single invariant possible?

As if requirements are set in stone. The parent comment is a bit exaggerated but it still has a point. One needs to be able to predict things and make sure whatever you do today isn't so rigid that it can't adapt to other things i
