This is very impressive! Could not get it to load on Safari for some reason, but worked great on Firefox. Also, have you played with Blender Geometry Nodes yet?

I've been on the prowl for libraries like this, too. https://rete.js.org also looked pretty good.

McDonalds is a symbol of US global hegemony. Exiting from Russia is maintaining that status quo. Protesting an ally of the US, or the US itself, would be a significant political statement, and probably contrary to their interests.

Maybe I misunderstood but pretty sure they’re saying the Reason article got it wrong. I’d like to hear why, and I’m likely to be sympathetic to an opposing view. For example, I disagree with Reason that we should loosen FDA rules on somethi

All you’ve done is offer a contradiction and an ad hom, so why not bring a more substantial argument to the table for discussion.

You'd think so, but things like probiotics, and diet-based approaches to curing disease is still considered alternative medicine. Many doctors are way behind on this stuff, and we'll probably be waiting on a Kuhnian scientific rev

What's most interesting to me is that gut biome can affect the eyes and brain.

Looks like it uses SoX under the hood. It manipulates pitch, volume, and downsampling. Pretty cool what you can do with just a few variables!

Selling a color is not reasonable. Admit it or not, most successful NFTs have artistic merit, and are capturing something authentic. Although the NFT community has been shown to reward irony (especially post-irony), it has not been shown to

The author, thinking NFTs were stupid to begin with, spent a significant amount of time and money creating a reductio ad absurdum project of selling colors as NFTs, but nobody took the bait. A cynic gets his well-deserved comeuppance.

Just to play devil's advocate, he could also reverse that and threaten to promote criticism of China if they don't play ball.

Your second statement presupposes central authorities can be trusted. Some presuppose that they cannot.

One company this worked out really well for was Sphero. Their robot toy had been on the market a couple years, and they joined the accelerator right before the new Star Wars movie came out with the BB-8, which was a match made in heaven. So

If we're relying on Big Tech for our national security, then we are truly screwed.

If I'm understanding correctly, this is binding event handlers "just in time" instead of when a component initializes. Isn't that just a tradeoff between working the CPU at load time vs. working the CPU on user interacti

“First they came for the mosquitos, but I said nothing because I was not a mosquito.” A bit tongue in cheek, but there are ethical issues raised by wiping out species. Next mice, then wild hogs, then on to other “pests”.

This is an aspect of liberalism not democracy. It seems paradoxical until you realize liberalism is anti-democratic. The original intent of liberalism was to protect the private interests of the land-owning class, who were and are a small m

The government grants charters to corporations. Corporations are thus franchisees of the state. The idea that corporations are sovereign rule makers for society and not bound to the laws of the land is misguided. If the government charters

Yo dawg, I heard you like dependencies, so we created a dependency injector dependency for you to inject so you can inject your dependencies. Sorry couldn't resist. The additional dependency is the biggest problem I have with OP's

I try to address the definition in another comment below (to tenuousemphasis), and would be curious to hear your response there. I would add that I think the dictionary definition raises the same issues as the colloquial ones.

Personally, I do believe in a universal reality. Tangentially, I also believe that cannot be justified by an autonomous epistemology. But to the point, humans make mistakes, have biases and incentives, and do not always tell the truth. Scie

I’ll take the opportunity to expand. Say you observe an event directly, with your own eyes. We’ll exclude optical illusions, hallucinations, or the possibility of a demon manipulating your brain in a vat. Is your direct observation a fact?

by programmarchy 4y ago
