The interesting map will be the subsequent Google searches for "Me duelen los ojos".

Much of the criticism of the Iphone photos is the fisheye effect. This is exaggerated, because you took the photos from different distances. If the Iphone photos were taken at the same distance, a cropped version of the Iphone photo would have identical perspective.

We are? There are games like this in any modern "arcade" like Dave & Buster's.

If you mean why aren't we building highly specialized hardware like this any more, I'd say it's because most of that complexity has moved into software running on general-purpose hardware, which is infinitely more flexible and maintainable.

Those stores also predominantly sell imported products. They are going to be affected disproportionately by the tariffs.

Better on every axis: security, performance, resource consumption, reliability, verification, documentation...

Code is a pure liability that you accept to get a useful service.

Image quality is extremely important for medical image analysis. A flickering low resolution display is the last thing you'd want a doctor looking at.

I rode in a Waymo for the first time last week. The highest praise I can give it is that it's boring. It drives like a careful human with zero surprises.

"The breakdown is dramatic, as models also express strong overconfidence in their wrong solutions, while providing often non-sensical "reasoning"-like explanations akin to confabulations to justify and backup the validity of their clearly failed responses, making them sound plausible."

It's fascinating how much they anthropomorphize the systems and credit them with emotional, possibly deceitful behaviour, in a paper trying to explain how unintelligent they are.

> It fired my imagination. I was always bad at that game but while playingit I was a Starship Pilot!

"Greetings, Starfighter. You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan armada."

Yeah, he designed THAT cabinet too.

It's not better though. The STR template processor behaves the exact same way as all the other examples, and it's the one that all the inexperienced devs prone to this kind of injection attack will use.

With less than an inch of separation, is the sense of depth even perceptible?

But 100mph (or kph) is also a way to describe charging speed.

Even with SQL we recognize that while aggregate roots and ORMS are great for storing and editing single items, they're terrible for use cases where the data is _used_, and you're better off using different query mechanisms to slice it in a better way. Indexing services and caches and transformation pipelines continue that.

I think CQRS is really just a glimmer of DoD in the enterprise world, the recognition that the system of record is generally a terrible resource for actually using the data, and that you need to rethink everything again if you want a performant system.

They did a poor job of qualifying "cheap". They link to a $50 Harbor Freight unit, which is a proper temperature controlled soldering station. It should certainly be made clear that a $20 wand with no temp control is right out.

The free subscription on my 2021 Toyota expired 16 months ago. Remote start still works. (Well, the fob button sequence is as finicky and inconsistent as it always was, but it does work.) I think Toyota changed their minds on that feature after the bad press about it hit.

Why is there a "Jupyter+Git" problem specifically? Why aren't we worrying about the "C+Git" problem and the "XML+Git" problem and the "Python+Git" problem? Because merge markers break, well, every file format.

Is it because Jupyter users in particular don't typically understand that there is a formatted text file behind the notebook, or how merge conflicts work?

You have something against the ladies of Eroticon 6?

A roller-style rotary encoder would work better. And perhaps be a better ergnonomic fit for what I assume is its primary use case, scrolling.

An alternative approach would be to relay the signal on the surface, perhaps using a fleet of aquatic animals with the same communication system mounted on them.

You know, sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads.

The playfield is a moving camera view on a static world.

The bird moves forward constantly, the camera follows the bird, and the pipes spawn at a fixed location one screen width ahead of the bird.

Almost worth it to be able to see a Rat Thing in action. Very briefly.

I figured that it was either an aggregator/search engine for research papers, or a GPT-3 random research paper generator. After reading 5-6 abstracts, I'm about 60% confident it's the former.

They didn't disclose that information that everyone even vaguely involved in the tech and gaming industry knew!

When I was researching my kid's ADHD medicine I was fascinated to learn about its osmotic release delivery system (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmotic-controlled_release_ora...).

What looks like a simple pill is actually a tiny machine that delivers the medicine at a precisely controlled rate over a period of hours.

Why are all of the API clients so intent on storing all your requests and environment config in the cloud?

We would keep a directory of relevant collections and environments inside all our application repos, so they would simply be committed along with the code, be versioned, included in PR reviews, etc. But it looks like all of the popular REST client tools use some hidden cloud services. This is also terrible from a security perspective, since environment variables are likely to include secrets.

So do you jam the chip into the parallel port? Or do you...use an adapter?

I'm more bothered by the omission of "s". The S in teraflops is not plural, it's part of the acronym.

Your computer has 1 teraflop performance? One trillion floating point operations per _what_, then?

The Gravis Ultrasound was a 3rd or 4th generation PC soundcard that came out 7 years after the Amiga. Its claim to fame was basically that it was as good as an Amiga.

Here's a friendly reminder that Sony put a rootkit on their audio CDs to enforce copyright. They brought the term "rootkit" into public awareness.

You need a partner to use its two-man mode!
