I can see that the research makes many organoid samples (4000+) mentioned in the paper. This is good to validate the organoid results are consistent.

however, then correlating the consistent organoid attributes back to attributes of a small parent sample group is weaker on small sample groups than larger ones. here the parent group is tiny… and the severe ASD sufferers is even smaller (n=2 or 3 by my understanding)

great foundational research! but surely larger group sizes are required before correlation is confirmed

This is the best I could find of the actual paper

This research has a very small sample size (n=31)

Also indicated by the scatter plots too.

From the research: “total of 10 toddlers with ASD and 6 controls ... In a 2021 batch, we measured BCOs from 10 ASD and 5 controls.“

At last the production reliability of Excel meets the clarity of regular expressions and the simplicity of matrix slices

Pure frivolous anecdote about FF

Whenever I’ve been lucky enough to get Glastonbury tickets it has been on Firefox

When applying I run Chrome as well to cover that base. But for me the Firefox windows are the ones that make it through. YMMV

vim, emacs are the editors you can use both on desktop and remote via ssh sessions.

Then there is the individual preference between vim and emacs

other tools like Eclipse and bash have emacs keybindings to repay the muscle memory investment

The article mentions Red Dwarf… but only in context of Rimmer.

There was a whole Red Dwarf episode devoted to AR. Has Haptics and everything.

Gunmen of the Apocalypse S06E03

Completely hilarious like all Season 6 episodes

Godot WebGL is not production ready. It-kinda-works is as good as it gets.

Godot webgl will not run on MacOS, defeating the whole point of WebGL/HTML5

“Godot 4's HTML5 exports currently cannot run on macOS and iOS due to upstream bugs with SharedArrayBuffer and WebGL 2.0”

https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/export/expo...

Many ways. When you have a reference to something it is easy to add,query, change elements to that something

Even unrelated things can be added this way (RigidBody, Raycasters) whereas Godot needs separate parallel node trees to accomplish the same thing

Unity so much more polished

Unity has Timeline (and Cinemachine)

Unity has Entity Component which is superior for many coders to Godot’s node system

Unity has better 3D

Unity has large bank of answered questions

Unity exports to WebGL

Unity Asset Store Assets are high quality, abundant and cost effective

“Lady Chatterley’s Zombie Lover” coming right up. Probably direct to Netflix

Does it have the sound of Tippex being carefully brushed onto the paper when you hit the backspace or delete or CTRL-x ?

Then blowing sounds as you try to make it solid quicker?

Yes, they deserve payment. I was never going to use them for free or try to circumvent.

Under the old system as soon as I got to $100k revenue all the developers needed a Pro license at roughly €1900 per annum.

(projected)

Phaser cannot do 3D games well.

Also, the Unity Asset store has so many great assets for me to use.

And 3D tools like PlayCanvas are browser based for their editor too. Desktop apps still have a massive edge in productivity.

Unity has Timeline, Cinemachine, Particle System editors which make detailed tasks possible.

Unity takes care of format shifting your assets into a compatible format, saving oodles of time.

And C# is a superior language to Javascript (never use == use ===). Visual Studio a better IDE than debug in browser

I make WebGL multiplayer games using Unity.

The original changes essentially shut me down.

Yesterday, I just found out Unity has changed their definition to exempt WebGL games: a partial relief. I have little confidence Unity will stick to their plans.

In between I evaluated all the alternatives to Unity specifically about WebGL players.

unfortunately WebGL is either impossible or crippled in other engines, frameworks. Further, other engines are like MS Paint versus Unity who would be Adobe Creative Cloud.

Here is my WebGL summary:

Godot uses Node trees instead of Entity Component. Porting Unity scripts almost impossible because of this amongst other reasons. Attempts to weld Entity Component only supported on Godot 4 but….

Godot 4+ WebGL does not work on Mac with no plans to change. Godot is waiting for Chrome to fix something, no comment on Safari, FF, others. One forum poster doing Godot WebGL export noticed that the Empty Scene WebGL export of Godot is 17MB versus 4MB for Unity.

Unreal 5 does not export to WebGL. However you can use UE 4

UE4 WebGL is not much discussed and the pieces you can find imply the output size, and thus customer download time, is significantly larger than Unity’s

Stride does not export to WebGL.

So UE4 seemed the only other option

No mention of WebGL installs

* Do WebGL plays count?

* This could bankrupt indies if too many people click the WebGL games

* What Unity Version is this effective from?

* Will games made on prior versions of the editor be affected?

Too true: I lost access to a really good Commodore 64 chip tune track hosted on youtube

It was a funky(!) version of the Wizardry game tune.

One day youtube purged many “copyrighted” videos and somehow this marvellous version was disappeared forever.

I had been putting it off downloading it because I figured it was too obscure.

Typo domain FakeHub is a leading porn portal, no?

Thank you for your article.

The rubric by definition is going to be inaccurate as you say.

I went over it myself for my project, and your breakdown does shed light despite the acknowledged inaccuracy.

For instance it made me google how many 250+ employee English-language businesses there are. In the UK it is around 8,000. That was useful in itself.

Good suggestion

My personal conjecture is that the Close action had the purpose to kill off your graphical work at that point.

So death for that portion…

Death often being depicted in cartoons (inc. black and white) with an X over both eyelids

I’ve used Dericam.

TS Mpeg stream to a home NAS

I had to wrap the microphone cable in aluminium foil and expand the plastic microphone hole to get decent sound capture. But they’re cost effective and stay in the LAN

Hmm. “Right state of consciousness” makes it sound exotic in a click baity way

It is more like “Experiencing a visual trip compatible with the image whilst also still lucid enough to communicate and remember”

Tripping comes in all varieties of strengths and effects. Often the effects are barely visual. Also you can be so out of it that you cannot speak and perhaps also cannot remember the test image when you’ve come down.

A bit close to the Kingsman (2014) plot…

Happened to me today.

It mostly caused mild exasperation.

I want FF to survive so this gave me mixed feelings.

First off: they are allowed to try things!

Great they are trying to keep the income incoming.

Bad that they don’t know their users enough that they are attempting this tack. It screams of expensive external consultants building a campaign… Depleting the funds for FF.

I agree with you (born 1977). Saw Alien sometime in 80s

Alien would be a solo but forgotten masterpiece like Man Hunter until James Cameron made Aliens.

“Mother” is kept mysterious in Alien, relying too much on 1970s zeitgeist of technology. I kept expecting a Dream Scene which were all the rage in 1960s/70s.

Good contrast with Jaws, I would also add Blues Brothers from the same period. Excitement possible even in those days.

1/2) “Just because you are right does not mean I am wrong”

There is a meme gif that sums this up perfectly

The gif in question has two figures discussing a 6 on the ground which is 6 from one person’s perspective and 9 from the other person’s perspective.

2/2) “I never make predictions, especially about the future” aka Acceptable choices at the time

If you did good work, and operated with as many of the facts that you had at the time, then that is a great outcome.

Not all the facts are known. Even when all the facts are known the choices may be a coin toss. Do not beat yourself up if a choice did not work out

At Glastonbury, the largest line inside is for the free phone charging.

People queue for hours, a tragic waste of festival time.

Wireless pads would make charging times longer and hence the queues too.

Camping / trekking you still want cables for speed of charge

Do not get wedded to that name…

Maersk will be in touch to gently ask that MRSK desist using their trademark.

I see overlong thinkpieces are not dying off and that humble-braggadocio is alive and kicking

And liabilities which may manifest in weird and expensive ways.

Like the London Whale (£3Bn??) for JP Morgan and countless other examples
