I agree and I don't want these incorrect answers to be made more plausible

It would be deeply wrong to use such an algorithm to add detail to blurry CCTV images in order to incriminate someone. I don't think every police force, security firm, security agency etc will agree with me on this and that concerns me. Police in my country are already using live facial recognition in some areas.

Be careful! Are you sure you want an algorithm to produce more black faces if it would be applicable to policing?

The beautiful contradiction of this article is that it's a Marxist critique of a game which represents a reality which is congruent with Marxist critiques of our own. The issue is not that the game doesn't provide an opportunity for paradise but instead that the player inhabits the role of evil without an opportunity for reflection. Games can do this. Brenda Romero's Train is a well-known example where the player is unknowingly complicit in evil until the reveal. While I'm not a fan of the increasing politicisation of games, it seems to me that gamer's insistence of total amorality in gameplay is a barrier to games becoming a serious art-form.

If you're going for a videogame then it could still be Touhou :)

Social media sites shouldn't fact check posts

> some of us work in industries and countries (You know where) that don't fully embrace SI, and mixing other systems with SI is common

That's actually pretty much everywhere since metric and SI are two different things. Use of the litre is deprecated under SI.

Reading Explain XKCD often feels like reading the 'Spoon' Wikipedia page

I was already on the cheapest plan so I'm good :)

Even more reason for someone there to be careful with timezones!

The whole work with the change would still be under copyright

>the book writing is obtuse It could be by translation but I found it quite plain.

Thanks! As I said, I hadn't look too far into it.

The present is made up of pieces of the past, my friend :)

I've not looked too far into it but my guess is that ripgrep being faster is just due to Gnu grep using a slower algorithm (and supporting unnecessary extensions). The Rust regex library excludes look-arounds and backreferences and is openly inspired by RE2. Russ Cox, one of the guys behind RE2, wrote something[0] on the topic.

Reminds me of Gmod cinema :-)

That's not new but probably more jarring since adults are more childish than they used to be

When looking at historical life expectancies, a common mistake is to look from birth. High rates of infant mortality shift the average. The life expectancy from birth for a Roman was about 35 but take it from age 5 and it jumps up to 60-65.

Beyond Xiaomi many of the products you use were manufactured or assembled in China.

That's silly of them. The only problem I've noticed is that images are inverted when they shouldn't be (e.g. on hover or the enlarged view).

I believe this was in regards to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's feet.

It's probably referencing the quantitative easing plan which is being presented as analogous to debasement of coinage.

Nope! Late 90s get rolled in too. Exact dates depend on who you ask and I'd avoid using generational names altogether.

I believe at least doubly so (in addition to postscript you can embed JavaScript)

> where's the copyright?

You would at least have copyright over the recording itself

I would guess that the owner of the Huawei phone was spoofing their mac address

... with the same execution environment

Thanks
