>Using the Qualtrics heat map tool, they were instructed to imagine themselves walking through these areas and to click on the area(s) of the image that stood out to the most to them.
They were asked to click. It wasn't even eye tracking.
Having a young population is also a big incentive for banks and government to invest in relatively newer tech.
Where I live, they search for "watch blabla online 1080p free". Way less time consuming than actually using streaming services or torrenting.
Also, you can easily torrent on Android.
I never understood why a "stylistic" choice requires separate characters. If we don't need a serif and non-serif version of every character and instead leave it to the software, why can't we do the same with the "smart" quotes?
I disagree with this. Anki's power comes from spaced repetition. Spending your time creating cards instead of actually reviewing the material is very inefficient. If high quality decks exist for the topic you're learning, use them instead. I've learned this the hard way.
Fields like medicine and language learning (you will still need to create your own deck for sentence mining but that's different as it's not a time sink) have great decks. For actual "niche" topics though, creating your own decks is your only choice.
For people who are going to create their own decks: check the Anking deck to see how to create "great" cards.
Translation for those wondering.
While that's how it's mostly used today, mipmapping refers to storing scaled-down versions of the same texture along with the original texture. You don't have to load all of them to RAM (or VRAM). You can simply store the mipmaps on a hard drive, and only load the required mip levels to the GPU, thus saving VRAM. This way, you are using mipmaps as texture LODs. Think about satellite images of Google Maps.
>What it does save on is memory bandwidth, because you don't need to sample from the full-size texture
Not exactly. It does save memory bandwidth, because you're sampling less texels and reducing cache misses, not because you're sampling from a smaller texture. You're simply not downscaling the texture on the fly, instead using precalculated downscaled pixel values.
This is an understatement. He was purged from the military and jailed by Islamists/Gülenists/Erdoğan using fabricated evidence and cultist judges, for "attempting a secularist coup".
I don't think it is "essentially" for propaganda. This would happen regardless, propaganda is just a side-benefit. Saying that he's "just a space tourist" would be like calling scientists that go to Antarctica for experiments "polar tourists". It is definitely overblown by the government media though.
Beware, heat from the lamp can also cause a "suntan". That's why checking under the tape is a mandatory step. If even under the tape is tanned, it is caused by heat and the test is invalid.
Then one day one of them blindly followed instructions to remove it so they can access an online newspaper. The only time they could actually follow instructions, it was actually malicious.
How many people actually read prompts? People literally share 2FA codes with scammers over the phone even though the SMS itself tells them not to share it with anyone, including their own support workers.
They failed to adapt. They failed to recognize what made previous sultans so successful. Instead of innovating, they decided it would be better to keep the status quo. When they realized the need to modernize, it was already too late. They had already become the sick man of Europe.
No, they don't. Uterus didelphys is caused by two tubes that normally join during fetal developed not joining. There are still only 2 ovaries. Though the bleeding might be irregular due to physical reasons.
Even if ovaries were doubled, there wouldn't be two cycles as hormones are centrally regulated and wouldn't be able to target specific ovaries.
This is the worst take in technology. The main value of FOSS is freedom, not time or money savings. For many people freedom is more valuable than either.
Also, FOSS and managed aren't mutually exclusive.
