You need to fix your domain configuration. smartleaf.com didn't resolve but www did.

True, but is one game in a decade really notable? It was only for a niche market. Compare to the mainstream console/pc/mobile.

They both win if players have and keep both subscriptions simultaneously

Who's left (as large distinct publishers/studios)?

- Sony

- Microsoft

- Electronic Arts

- Capcom

- Ubisoft

- Nintendo

- Konami

- Square Enix

- Tencent

- Take Two

- Warner Brother Games

- Embracer Group

IP license biz model (Disney, Sega, etc...)

I'd include Valve, but they just don't make games anymore

edit: Added Embracer

Even many live performances are put through the tools. It's pretty sad.

Apparently a lot of bible thumpers go to that school and he's probably heard the predestination argument w.r.t. Covid & dying far too often. Him saying grades are predetermined is another way of challenging that viewpoint. The grades won't (or shouldn't) be assigned randomly

Does anyone have ideas for Firefox on mobile? It looks like OP add-on isn't supported on Android Firefox.

Control systems (analog) was one of the courses I did poorly in university. And of course, my first job after school was working on (digital) control systems! It turns out digital is a lot easier than analog (to me, at least).

A couple things I discovered:

- When changing setpoints for your controller it helps to slowly ramp them to prevent disturbing the system. Calculate a (end-start)/steps and apply the delta every loop cycle.

- For integral wind-up, I found it more convenient to re-calculate the integral term when hitting a control limit.

my point isn't so much taxation on inheritance (although that is unfair too - step up etc...)

my point is that these trusts are specifically structure to prevent decendents from exiting their wealth. through poor risk taking, ineptitude, getting sued. nothing will affect the trust

This will change as South Dakota trusts gain more popularity among the wealthiest in America. Perpetual trusts will ensure generational wealth for centuries as long as these aren't legally challenged.

Normally trusts have a cap of 100 years or so before all the funds are disbursed and the pampered beneficiaries can fritter away most/all the wealth as per the article.

These trusts are also: - obfuscated (difficult to 'find' to litigate) - state tax free - legally protected (difficult to litigate) - can designate oneself as beneficiary

America is the new tax haven

Until dynasties with extremely large Southh Dakota in-perputuity Trusts make it almost impossible for wealth to erode in 2-3 generations or even longer. There's a good reason why trusts were restricted to ~100 years but now the world has lost that legal fight. In 100, 150 years, just how much power will the trust holders of these perpetual trusts have over the rest of society?

Because they prioritizing results that make them the most money over the results you want.

Or just take the proven to work vaccine.

Steve Jobs was a pretty weird dude. Among other things, he thought eating the same thing for a week meant he wouldn't stink (he did). I don't know if he's the best example

"I'm sorry, but we can't do visas"

What does this mean? For a TN-visa you only need an letter stating employment, not 'full sponsorship'...

It's not really comparable to TPU. The MIT chip uses analog tricks to perform binary neural network operations. It's probably directly comparable to FPGA DNN, I think.

If home internet speeds weren't so asymmetrical, you could save/stream the broadcast to the cloud to be streamed back later.

Private, secure communication... Until we're subpoena'd.

Glad to see named parameters and introspection on the table

I agree, you are always as slow as your critical path of executions. General purpose code, I imagine, often has very long critical path that no amount of parallelism will improve.

What I want to know is just how silent the pipelines of this design would be under multi-threaded general purpose code.

The article talks about the turning moves being a rational choice to go to the Langkawi runway

That's an interesting hypothesis, one I have not heard discussed yet.

Why does it need to be phoneless? Just don't put a SIM in it

Soft errors are a very real property of low-voltage digital electronics. I personally observed what could only be realistically explained as a soft error in a unit running customer hardware in the field. A single bit was flipped in the program memory of the embedded application and was causing the system to malfunction in an obvious and repeatable manor. We've since added CRC checking to the program memory and some of the static data sections to flag and reset this in the future.

I could see it being tough near cities that give off so much excess light at night anyways. Were you thinking visible spectrum?

Wouldn't it be great if you could have Firefox as the home screen for your phone... Oh wait!

People are just so used to the expected email monitoring from their government. So why not just trust everyone with your communications? Abstract thought not required
