No, this is incoherent garbage written by a man whose too fragile to accept and reflect on real peer view (you know something that is actually required for real science and philosophy, or just contributing to the Linux Kernel), and is using

Open comes with the ability to participate, an open door is to let something physical through , not like a transparent window that lets one see, an open market, open auction, or open sports league explicitly implies more than just viewing

There's a difference between being wrong on a few things, and being consistently wrong and so far up your own ass that you have Slavoj Žižek and Sam Harris calling you out and the only response you have is "He's just posturin

But you can't do any of this and expect to get recognized. No ones gonna hire you because you spent a decade and have a half finished game engine written Haskell. All of that freedom is fake and some even in contradiction with each oth

I think the biggest reason is lack of hardware decoding, Lots of people have a device that can hardware decode H.265, which is extremely important for 4k content, my x230 really struggled with software 4k decoding of H.265, so I assume the

We have a building at the local university that has ground at one end level with transitory step between floors -1 and 0, you enter the building through the stair well, and descend or ascend to get to a floor. I wouldn't be surprised i

YouTube's 1080p60 is already at a decimation ratio of about 200:1, then you have to consider how efficient P and B frames are with motion/differences. if your data looks like noise you're gonna be completely screwed since the

If I was to gamble I would say that Analog TV can store more data, compression algorithms usually work at say 1:200 compression ratio, they're extremely destructive, a raw 1080p60 in yuv420p is about 187MB/s, on the other hand a d

You're looking an a macro economic indicator that only politicians seem to care about, Most other countries don't even bother to measure it. Trade deficit is just as much an indicator for foreign sentiment to hold US cash, as it i

If the service gives a 301/308 response, it should in theory rewrite all bookmarks and things like this, but that also opens up security issues especially when it comes to password managers.

The use of "private-key encryption system" here is referring to symmetrical ciphers, It's an odd use of "private-key" that's for sure.

I have this pathological example, I have a 30GB journal dump from bcachefs, and compressed it down with lz4 and zstd to a sata SSD, the compression ratios are 6.8% and 3% respectively (and this with default level 3!), it takes 14s to ripgre

The point of locking the CPU to a specific vendor is to reduce the trusted user base in the cloud. Currently you have to trust AMD, the Vendor, and the data center with your data. The goal of verification of the firmware at such a low level

Most people here don't seem to understand the entire point of this is to stop hardware tampering. The goal of AMD's SEV and other features is that the only way to compromise the system is to tamper the wires between the CPU die an

No one is saying "in an ideal world" that's a strawman. Fact checkers, corporations, the media, the state, and any of the elite are just people and so extremely irrational, Why on earth would you want to give any of them powe

The problem with signal and whatsapp's design with phone numbers is that it's used as your public facing ID. if you give over your number to someone, they put it in their address book on their phone and then Facebook finds common

This doesn't solve the issue of stolen accounts, or fraud. Game companies won't accept a system that has a non-recoverable state like a deleted private key. If you can assign a new key to your account, then the private keys don&#x

You're downplaying how genuinely hard it is to do server side stuff on a game with 60+ players, a lot of this stuff is O(n^2), and the bottle necks is network packet sizes as well where players will start to complain about packet loss

There's no reason to believe this team will do anything. Look at the guys LinkedIn and you'll see the graphic designer is a really bad graphic designer, look at the game itself, it's just an asset flip, they have no artists,

Minecraft wasn't marketed as having "every genre", while showing exactly none in their demo videos. When you design a game you come up with a core game play loop, Minecraft had this, and notch was competent and humble enough
