Yeah, this is crazy that Apple is only using AAC for their codec and not anything like aptX that can get down to 50ms range. I would expect Apple to do better here and even have different low latency codec specifically…
That's not the only point. You are confusing necessary and sufficient conditions. Being able to do the thing that needs to be done at the right time is a a necessary condition for this success. It's definitely not…
I first heard that advice referenced from Scott Adams the creator of Dilbert. Where he notes that he is not a very good artist or very funny, but combining the two with his background in business is why he was…
Yeah, it was denied. About our new discovery, Daniel J. Bernstein issues the following statement: "https://cr.yp.to/qmail/guarantee.html has for many years mentioned qmail's assumption that allocated array lengths fit…
Note the go compiler is actually fairly immature compared to C++ compilers. It does not have any AVX autovectorization. Any AVX optimization is manual assembly by a library author.
Authors aren't actually incentivized to find accurate results, but rather publishable results, which typically means novel. Researchers also cite articles based on their impact, not their veracity. There are plenty of…
Yeah, it's ingrained into the culture for lower level employees to call out people even in upper management for such minor safety violations as not using a hand rail on the stairs. Also, I assume the complaints were for…
The discussion isn't about university research money and whether that is spent productively, it's about endowments, which are nothing more than investment funds. The question is whether it is productive to maintain…
Error: The value 'ZZZ' is invalid for '<high-value>' That is an awful default error for validating the type. The program knows it failed to parse as an Int but doesn't tell you anything about that. Error: The value…
It was two phone interviews that he didn't want to do back to back after having already completed two successful phone interviews. People can often take a phone interview over their lunch break as it is typically less…
This is such a weird proposal that I think indicates an unawareness of the advertising industry. The reason the internet tracking industry exists is entirely because the first party advertisers don't want to deal with…
No, that does not typically happen and advertisers know that. That is called direct response marketing (think coupons in your free weekly newspaper) and is basically the lowest form of advertising. Advertising is a…
The graph isn't about absolute levels, but income distribution. The point I think they are trying to make is that higher total income countries tend to have a more equal income distribution. The US doesn't fit that…
Wait, I can't believe that I am a "rare individual" who can visually imagine things. Is visual imagination really not a wide spread ability among the population at large? I would think that it is the opposite. That…
What about the case of multiple outputs? It's traditional to have functions that take other mutable arguments to store different auxiliary return values in. So, with this proposal, you couldn't do that and would have to…
That's not a good definition of effective. The advertiser actually cares about ($ spent / additional products sold that would not have been otherwise), which is much harder to actually measure as it involves a real…
Not to burst your bubble, but that is just the vacuum can on the dilution refrigerator and is a standard piece of hardware you will see in many physics labs. There wasn't really any product design beyond slapping the…
This seems to be a general trend in film as well. Look at a recent movie credits (accountants, administrative assistants, lawyers and the like) versus the very short list of people who actually contributed to a film on…
They make Faraday bags (many options) for this purpose. That is where you should store your fob.
Yeah, that makes sense because you need some type to span the address space and that depends on the size of the address space. That is what int is used for in go, though why they chose signed rather than unsigned is…
I thought the consensus was that opening up the primaries outside of party insiders was a considerable force for increasing the idealogical and partisan candidates. When the party insiders choose, then want moderate…
Well to be fair, the 9 year old company is losing $1.1B a quarter with no plans to make any money which would make me very very sad. Also, that revenue growth is half of what it was 6 months ago, which is the dramatic…
Technology hasn't magically decoupled inputs from outputs. You should look into some of the analysis by Vaclav Smil. He has very well researched assessments of the limits of energy.
Note-taking is a learned skill. When I was in school, they actually taught us several different techniques for taking notes and I am not sure that is a universal part of education. They told us that studies showed…
Or they could just be present in the actual social situation they were attending. All of the options you suggest seem preferable to staring at a random glowing magic square in their hands.
