I want to see that shader. How is sloshing implemented? Is the volume of the bottle computed on every frame? Clearly, there's some sort of a physics simulation going on there, preserving the volume, some momentum, and taking gravity in

"asdf".indexOf("as") is 0 but "asdf"[0] is NOT "as". so there can be no expectation that ""[0] is "". Those two operations are not related to each other. It's more intuitive i

You can get knowledge (e.g. mathematical) without observation. You can't get information without observation.

"Reasonable" is an unfortunate word IMO. An assumption doesn't come out of reasoning. We can't even estimate the probability of this assumption being right because we can't see the future. The best way this word fit

If you're clipped in, why would you keep feet from sliding? Preventing sliding by pushing is how effort is wasted and is a possible explanation why a cyclist might feel much stronger when clipped in and no longer has to push - while at

Those are not necessarily examples of lifting . Those could as well be explained by the contribution of not pressing on the opposite pedal (to keep the foot from sliding). And not pressing doesn't shine any light on the force of lif

Is there a fixed-function circuit that can read a digital value out of a sensor and compare it with a threshold? I'm not dounting it's possibly, but I'd be surprised if it's available without involving a Turing-complete

Does the secure enclave need to be built into the main CPU though? A key store on a USB stick or on a TPM will never allow your keys to be exfiltrated, yet it's not part of the CPU, and it's even removable.

A dream - the code contains a hash which identifies the file. Like ipfs + bittorrent.

It reminds me of the cycle of enshittification: once you have a captive audience, you start bumping the profits at the cost of the user experience. It looks like something similar is in effect here: instead of meeting the different customer

The problem is that it's not an either-or. Adding app operation alongside coin operation would have been an improvement in useability. Replacing coins with apps is just making it suck in a different way.

IMO not every coder is sloppy with use-after-free. Not everyone is slopy with incorrect mutability. [...] Not everyone is sloppy with $THING[N]. But it's hard to consistently not be sloppy in any one of them, and N are so many that alm

Does failing after 10 years count as a failure? Cause living for the next 10 years is not really that difficult, and the relevant people will still likely be around. Sure, the offer might as well be for 90 years, or even 50 years without mu

It's countered by not making the assertion and not being able to make conclusions. You only need a lack of confidence for that. It's orders of magnitude easier to not have knowledge compared to having it.

Cars becoming illegal over night is about as ralistic as popping up infrastructure replacing it over night. It's a complete straw man. In reality, cars can only disappear gradually, with less-car-dependent infrastructure replacing them

I guess you chose your work/housing combo to be only friendly to a car. The alternative in this case is to choose a place where they are not so far apart - hardly impossible.

Perhaps you need a (e-)bike. Instead of taking 15min, you'd take 30min at city speeds. But actually, if cars disappeared, people would have an incentive to work closer to where they live. So instead of living next to a quick road conne
