NL807

Yeah I can see that being a source of annoyance for situations like yours. However, I welcome it from a privacy perspective. The indicator alerts the user if some nefarious application covertly enables the microphone.

> If you have to explain it, there is zero chance of massive adoption.

Here's the thing, one should not need to explain it no mire. Devices or applications accessing content with an RSS option should present it to the end user through a convenient interface.

Season 1 was great. 2 is meh. 3 is probably the last one I'll watch, as I'm losing interest. The Joe MacMillan dude basically carries the show.

>Those companies will then destroy those clothes, reporting them as sold to consumers.

I think those companies might just actually sell them, and report to the company is being destroyed.

>Native app development is an evil necessity.

I wish people did more native app development.

Dudes must be really bored there

These machines don't really detect what kind of materials stuff is composed of, much of that is just a crude classification based on density. True identification requires broadband x-rays emission with spectral analysis.

>It's about making people feel safe.

It adds stress. I fondly remember flying in the 80s vs today. Travelling back then was more chill.

lol I did this with my mates. Get one of those 1 kV ceramics, give it some charge and bob's your uncle, you have one angry capacitor.

>Like it or not, mods should be free.

Why? If it's original work, and it does not violate existing laws, whoever makes it should have the right to seek compensation for their work, if they see fit. It's basically software like any other. Licensing models have been successfully applied to software plugins in past, mods fall into that category.

CDPR's policy and the law are orthogonal things. They would have to demonstrate that the mod and its business model violates some kind of law.

Documentation is fantastic.

Legends. Open source, create a community of hackers around your products, everyone is happy.

why type, when you can copy and paste text from images these days??

>I get the impression that Garage isn’t necessarily focussed on this kind of use case.

I wouldn't be surprised if this will be fixed sometime in the future.

It's a fascinating topic and i'm still trying to get my head around some of the concepts.

Have fun on your discovery journey.

Here is a good lecture on this subject:

Somewhat related field, compressive sensing, attempts to answer some of those questions (particularly missing data, uneven sampling and errors) using a L1 minimisation technique.

So it's a parser implementation problem, not XSLT per se.

>You imagine that XSLT is more secure but it’s not. It’s never been. Even pure XSLT is quite capable of Turing-complete tomfoolery, and from the beginning there were loopholes to introduce unsafe code.

Are there examples of this?

To be honest, it seems like a waste of copper. The way he did it, might as well use stiff copper wires, or better still - prototyping boards.

Ok, so by that definition a geodesic sphere has the Rupert property, as the sphere is an approximation made up of equilateral triangles. What if we perform isotropic subdivision on the equilateral triangles, such that each inserted point lies on the sphere, centred on each base triangle. We then subdivide each base triangle by constructing 3 new triangles around the inserted point. Thus at each iteration, geodesic sphere of N triangles is subdivided into 3*N triangles. If we continue with the subdivision, each iteration is a refinement of the geodesic sphere, and the geometric approximation gets closer to the shape of a true sphere. As N approaches infinity, the Rupert property holds true (according to the definition). What happens at infinity?

>It would be super hard to detect though.

Would it? I would've thought there is enough dust in the solar system that it would create constant xray emissions. Even if it's faint, it would stick out like a sore thumb on super sensitive xray telescopes.

>IMHO the actor model is great until you need to share something across processes

Incidentally that's what actors are designed for, passing data and being able to mutate their state without use of explicit synchronisation. You either copy or transfer ownership of data from one actor to the next via message passing. Actual sharing should be only done if the data in question is globally immutable.

> I don't expect politicians to be smart. I expect them to be good listeners and be the voice for the people.

I want both. I want them to be smart -- not necessarily domain expert smart, but reasonably smart with making life changing decisions for everyone. And base those decisions on recommendations made by domain experts.

I view touch screens, keyboards and mice as the saddle points in the usability landscape. These kinds of decides don't change much because their designs have converged to an efficient form factor, from a usability perspective. That does not mean there is nothing better, perhaps these devices sit in a false saddle point, and perhaps there is something better that has not been invented yet.

Clever kid

>They’re saying that a crime was committed in their country by the person and they’re asking the foreign country for cooperation in prosecuting that person.

Seems like a loophole for arbitrary criminal accusations of a people living abroad who are not affiliated with the country making the accusations. With this kind of logic, adult website operators should be extradited to some middle-eastern country for violating their sharia law online. It's wrong. Site operators living abroad should not be held accountable for not adhering to arbitrary local laws, unless they are conducting business directly in that country.

I'm surprised they did not use a bunch of cheap sphere-ray intersection tests. It would be more accurate.

Intel dead.
