Is there any possibility this trend is an attempt by filmmakers to mitigate the impact streaming service compression schemes will have on the appearance of their art? Less colors - plays better with something outside their control. I scanned the whole thread here and didn't see anyone suggesting this. I know I've watched titles that really seem to suffer from the effects of compression and others where it's not as horrible. the banding - chunky swathes of mono color that's distracting and needless, imo. Is there a TIDAL style service for video that doesn't use compression, or uses some sort of lossless compression?

it would be a mistake to think leaders are any different than ordinary humans.

any recommendations?

do any recordings exist?

as long as software is based on clumsy "if then else when for" statements and computation relies on binary switches - self driving cars will remain impossible.

because humans have a biological imperative to choose short term solutions

Use the same guiding spirit as the rural electrification project of the 1930's to get this done. Bringing symmetrical broadband service to every address in the US is just as important as electrifying the countryside was back then.

Lynx isn't dead, posted this comment thru the terminal on my mac running lynx.

When the Strava heatmap issue came to light i recall seeing many tracks on military runways and wondered, "who's out there doing laps on the tarmac? So this makes sense now.

be the change you want to see.

no idea, didn't look at it too hard.

ah .. i can see aggregating images from cloud connected dash cams as well.

looks like it's out there - https://www.irbsearch.com/vehicle-sightings.html

So could someone mount these cameras on private property with views of major highways and stand up a subscription service?

cisco umbrella does not like this site.

So are they complicit in the crime then?

I'd like access to every platform, service and channel then only be billed for the amount I watch.

Or aim the laser at another drivers rear window and tell that idiot to slow down!

Returning to ho capitalism functioned during the years of 1930-1980, before the reduction in top marginal tax rates would go a long way towards leveling the playing field.

income in excess of $5million/yr taxed at 91%.

the R A Montgomery books were good, I particularly liked the Trio series, about a fractured America during a future civil war.

Well yeah, if it's not salable what's the point in spending anytime on the research?

Too many people.

I've struggled with the same thing all my life, sleepless nights and foggy days. I once thought about it and determined that there were years where I DIDN'T have this issue and came to the realization that was when I was involved in high school sports or college athletics. If I don't get a 5-7 mile run into my day or 45mins of swimming or weightlifting, etc.. why should I be tired? If all I've done all day is breathe and walk around there's no way I'm going to be able to sleep until like 2-3am. So perhaps absent hard exercise I'd fall into the 25-27 hour day cycle that others have described here in tis thread. but If I want to be on the same clock as most others I'd better make strenuous exercise a priority.

If we want better roads, another space shuttle, the next wave beyond the integrated circuit, etc... most prudent course of action would be to reinstate the internal revenue act of 1954.

employee ownership is a great way to organize.

the war didn't cause that, us exports in the post war years didn't experience a wild surge. it was the progressive tax rates, 90% on income in excess of 400k/yr that forced investment into societal infrastructure, education and research and development in a way we haven't seen in the last 30 years.

Thanks!

I'm planning a road bike tour of old silicon valley offices for next saturday, does anybody know where in Mountain View the offices of General Magic were located?
