Even more amazing is that there are still people playing that game.

"Everyone seems to increasingly be in it for themselves, not for society."

As human beings, we have an underlying need for belonging and connection. All of us are by default programmed to be connected to our own interests. For many that circle broadens to their friends and family and for a few that broadens to their immediate community. Fewer still feel connected to their country and only some of us will feel connected to the world.

If you read just one article on web3, let it be this one.

I think it's pretty cool that video is getting such a performance boost, however there are more developers than video editors out there that could have used few more general purpose cores on the silicon. If you look at compile times, the M1 MAX is just slightly better than AMD mobile CPUs produced on an inferior process node. Nothing to write home about.

As with anything, we have to ask ourselves why are we offloading the responsibility to the OS providers to solve this, when we really have to determine for ourselves if the risk is even a risk at all on our individual systems. Do I care about this hard to exploit vulnerability on a web server that's streaming video content to the public? No. Does it matter on a DB server with important financial data? Yes it does.

Applying the patch should be opt-in if you ask me. But of course, most sysadmins are hopeless. So then the OS vendors push it out, it's safer than letting the decision to uninformed people.

Looks very nice! Does it support multi gpu training during the search?

There used to be a time when every town had a dairy and also nice men who would deliver it to you in glass reusable containers and perhaps even have sex with your wife.

I remember reading about an ELI5: The "Old Math" in Tom Lehrer's New Math. That post was funny.

If you haven't heard the song, he describes the way they used to do math as follows:

Consider the following subtraction problem, which I will put up here: 342 minus 173. Now, remember how we used to do that:

Three from two is nine, carry the one, and if you're under 35 or went to a private school, you say seven from three is six, but if you're over 35 and went to a public school, you say eight from four is six ...and carry the one, so we have 169.

I wish I could give it a try... I don't have a place of my own yet and no access to a kitchen, but hey! It could be worse. I'll save the recipe for the future though.

The ability to create a docker image from multiple sub-images is pretty useful. I think you could also use Dockerfile multi stage builds for that, but it’s not as clean.

So far in 2020 we have a near-war with Iran, a global pandemic, a locust invasion in Africa, Krakatoa erupting in Indonesia, and now a radioactive wildfire, and it's only April.

Not my comment, but exactly my thoughts:

AI is a buzzword with no meaning behind it used by every idiot that runs a script on a big CSV file, so far outside of IT it can't be any less of a meme. I can already see them "analyzing" these "top 10 compliment beast" listicles and creating "sex in a bottle" and it's going to be Secretions Magnifiques II.

This is an undervalued piece of news. We need to get rid of the remaining autocracies of this world.

Are there better options for $35? I'm fine with the seller being an unknown Chinese company.

Saving this. If it works, it's spectacular. And using it for Revolut, they're horrible scammers.

#1 would be Through The Ages for me, the newer edition. But only if played 1v1 because it's too bothersome waiting for 2 or 3 other people. Also, I don't have that many friends.

Cool logo and domain you got there. I like the idea of using your own Gmail account in order to send the emails, there's no better way that I know of to bypass SPAM filters.

It's not easy to wrap my head around this one. So its purpose is to fund development around Ethereum, therefore the most likely to join it with ETH funds would be teams building dapps on Ethereum, or developing the protocol itself? Or rich people, that are also rich in ETH.

Hey guys, founder of SparkXYZ here. We're here to offer you startup credits (worth $338,023) that you'd usually only get by joining incubators/accelerators. We've built partnerships with 30+ service providers who are winning to offer massive discounts for new customers. Our goal is to reduce founder failure reducing your burn and increasing your runway.

I believe this. I've been very heavily into games before after being very heavily into watching TV shows and movies. I would always try to talk to my gaming friends about movies and shows and they would all basically say the same thing.

"Who's got time to watch that stuff?" They were always so busy playing games that they didn't have hours every day to sit down and watch stuff.

If Netflix could find a way to hook this demographic, they could expand considerably.

Yep. I'm still using pgadmin 3.

Which is why I found this part hilarious: "And there’s still competition: Some markets may have just one cable provider, but phone companies offer increasingly comparable internet access — so if the cable provider slowed down or blocked some sites, the phone company could soak up the affected customers simply by promising not to do so."

As bad as Rogers is, Bell Canada is much worse with regards to NN. And both would like nothing better than than to prevent all the other ISPs from being able to lease the last mile from them.

This is going in the complete opposite direction than what's needed. You definately don't want a single ISP especially if it's run by the government.

You need more ISPs. A lot more. But for that to happen you need to make the last mile neutral and preferably run by an independent third party.

The next best thing would be for the last mile ISPs being required to lease the last mile to other ISPs at a fixed rate. This still has problems as the last mile ISP can pull some shenanigans like prioritizing their own customers for repairs, messing with the other ISPs traffic, etc.

> 200Gbps

I take it you meant 200Mbps. Otherwiae you have better home internet than everyone in the world and not juat the US.

> what Canada does and require ISPs to sell Internet access at fixed wholesale rates

Actually, it's access to the last mile that's sold a fixed rates. The ISPs lease aggregated links to the last mile network depending on how much capacity they need. These ISPs have their own internet uplinks. There are ISPs that are just pure resellers but I'm not sure if this is regulated.

But even this had a net neutrality issue. The ISPs leasing out the last mile access started to throttle certain traffic (bittorrent and VPNs) for their customers AND the customers of the ISPs that leased the last mile.

Recently the fight was over access to the new FTTH connections.

> We can't. It is absolutely not in the public's interest to allow just anyone to dig up roadsides and bury cable

Yes you can. Have the municipality be the one responsible for running fiber from reaidences to common access points. The the ISPs all have equal access and you can change ISPs very easy.

But again, politics and encumbent ISPs will prevent this.

> The fact that some places only have one ISP is because government over-regulate right to pass and instal fiber.

Limiting how many companies can dig up the streets is a good thing. Imagine if every delivery company wanted to pave a road to your house.

Where the government screwed up is not making the last mile common to all ISPs.

I all for the free market at the ISP level if and only if the last mile is run by neutral third party with equal access to all ISPs.

As for corporate control is so acceptable and government control isn't is because the corps control the media and the government. Anytime someone in the government tries to control the corps there's a big media backlash against it.

> 1) Its not the executive branch's job to legislate. 2) The ISP's know whats best for innovation and serving their customers.

Ran that through congressman/senator double speak to english translator and got this:

1) You're unable to offer us election funding and/or a high paying job after we leave office so we're not going to do anything. 2) The ISP's know whats best for themselves and screwing their customers.
