Notice how all of those numbers are substantially larger or smaller, by many orders of magnitude, than a couple of hundred.

Are you intentionally trying to avoid understanding what I’m writing?

Then you should pick a reputable paper like The Guardian and read a chronological RSS feed. Articles that don’t support Lemmys preexisting point of view don’t even get posted here.

Yes, it’s this little thing called context, thresholds, and relative magnitude.

If your brain is only evolved to process numbers up to a hundred or two, then everything 10000+ is similarly processed through abstractions rather than your brain being able to directly comprehend and compare them.

If instead of asking a guffawing question, you actually tried to point out why my reasoning was flawed, you may have realized those basic aspects of how language work on your own.

Being factually incorrect about literally everything you said changes nothing? Okay.

Yeah bruh, it’s this little thing called being pedantic.

If I say wealth inequality is crazy, no one should have 250 billion dollars, and you say ‘well actually Jeff Bezos only has 210 billion dollars’, then I will be factually incorrect and my point will still be completely valid.

That changes literally nothing of what I said. Your brain did not evolve to process those scales accurately. If you think you can, that just means you’re lacking in self reflection.

Because pop science articles often throw out bullshit like “blowing your nose can cause you to expel over 100 germs” because they know that 100 sounds like a big number and will get clicks.

People not questioning the actual context and meaning behind those numbers and how they connect back to something we actually care about leads to a lot of bullshit science reporting.

Lmao, bruh here thinks his brain evolved to process scales of millions and comprehend a nanometer.

Are you a special unique bro different from everyone else?

Til that OP has no concept of what a particle is or how small it is or how many of them there are in any given scenario because our brains did not evolve to process that kind of scale accurately.

Everyone having a FaceTime call does this. Every dash cam does this. Every Ring doorbell and self driving car does this. You can do this with a $10 usb pinhole webcam and an android phone or raspberry Pi.

The problem here is with facial recognition databases, not with people using cameras in public.

Dumb, click bait article.

This is about PimEyes, and databases that hoard facial recognition data, not Meta or Rayban or smart glasses.

Stop spilling your dumb orc blood on Ukrainian soil and watch the deserved anti-Russian hatred melt away.

Note that they didn’t ban ethnic Russians or people of Russian decent, just cowards who still live in Russia and didn’t flee the war.

VSCode & VSCodium are also free for commercial use.

Why learn an IDE you won’t use anywhere else?

Honestly, did anyone take anything at all away from this article?

I’m jacked up about Avowed, and Obsidian remains one of the best studios in existence right now, but it really felt like this article said absolutely nothing of substance. Basically just, “we’re trying to make a well paced game with complex narrative choice”, and it’s like yeah, you’re Obsidian, that’s what you do and have always done.

Did it say Fallout 76 at the time you read it? It looks like they corrected that to New Vegas by now.

Beau Brummel’s influence is the reason, though he would have detested the uniformity of it all.

To directly quote Linus:

Ok, lots of Russian trolls out and about.

It’s entirely clear why the change was done, it’s not getting reverted, and using multiple random anonymous accounts to try to “grass root” it by Russian troll factories isn’t going to change anything.

And FYI for the actual innocent bystanders who aren’t troll farm accounts - the “various compliance requirements” are not just a US thing.

If you haven’t heard of Russian sanctions yet, you should try to read the news some day. And by “news”, I don’t mean Russian state-sponsored spam.

As to sending me a revert patch - please use whatever mush you call brains. I’m Finnish. Did you think I’d be supporting Russian aggression? Apparently it’s not just lack of real news, it’s lack of history knowledge too.

Jedi Survivor is a shockingly good game, so excited for a third one, but sad to hear that the director has left, but then again the rest of Respawn has seemed pretty consistently talented, but he left partly because he felt it was better working with a smaller team during early Respawn which could indicate Respawn is growing too big and bureaucratic like has happened to so many talented studios before it, but the wall running in Titanfall predated him … :S

I’m honestly unsure if they intend the ‘must-ignore’ policy to mean to eat duplicate keys without erroring, or just to eat keys that are unexpected based on some contract or schema…

A summary:

An old proposal (2015, not sure why OP posted it now), that basically proposes to put some more standards and limitations around JSON formatting to make it more predictable. Most of it seems pretty reasonable:

• Must be UTF-8 encoded and properly escape Unicode characters
• Numbers must respect the JavaScript number Type and it’s limitations (i.e. max magnitude of an int etc.)
• Objects can’t have duplicate keys
• The order of keys in objects does not matter
• A JSON file does not need to have a top level object or array, it can be any JSON value (i.e. just a string or a number is still valid JSON).
• It proposes that when processing JSON, any unrecognized keys should be ignored rather than errored

It recommends:

• Specific formats for date-time data
• That binary data be stored as a bas64url string

Honestly, the only part of this I dislike is the order of keys not mattering. I get that in a bunch of languages they use dictionary objects that don’t preserve order, but backend languages have a lot more headroom to adapt and create objects that can, vs making a JavaScript thread loop over an object an extra time to reorder it every time it receives data.

Thank fucking god.

I got sick of the overhyped tech bros pumping AI into everything with no understanding of it…

But then I got way more sick of everyone else thinking they’re clowning on AI when in reality they’re just demonstrating an equal sized misunderstanding of the technology in a snarky pessimistic format.
