Is Sicario an adaptation? I can’t find any reference that it is.

Also, Prisoners is technically an adaptation of a short-story, but it’s a not very well known short-story (I don’t even see a name for the story on Wikipedia) from the writer of the screen play, so you could make an argument that the short story is essentially just a first draft of the script.

I do agree that we should just let him continue doing whatever he wants, he’s done excellent work.

What is this garbage? If I own a house/gold/collectable/toilet paper during covid/… and the value goes up, am I supposed to pay taxes?

Yes, you are supposed to pay taxes on that (or on the house specifically). It’s called property taxes.

If the value goes up, you pay more taxes the next year, if the value goes down you pay less.

I’m not sure the ownership situation of the company, but it is also independently in bankruptcy so I think that is being dealt with later

After a few years the orbit will degrade enough that it’ll start to fall back to earth. At that point, the satellite will either burn up completely on re-entry, or partially and the rest will fall to earth.

Either way, each of these satellites will be completely gone from orbit after a few years.

ULA is already a private company. I don’t think the US government has done any of their own work to get to space since the shuttle.

Hi Will!

Now that you’ve tried out directing as well as acting, which side of the camera do you prefer?

Are there any things you’ve learned from the experience of directing that you think will help in future acting roles? Additionally, is there anything you would do differently about directing Kodar if you got to start over from scratch today?

How long did you play BoI for if getting burned out on Hades after 40hrs was fairly quick?

If you’re mixing things up in the kitchen, typically you try to be somewhat precise with ratios.

The difference in this case being that because the actual ratio of the blend is unknown, you don’t actually know how it would crystallize. Technically they could even change up the ratio week to week based on the price of high-fructose corn syrup so you wouldn’t even get consistency from it.

If this actually did lead to faster matrix multiplication, then essentially anything that can be done on a GPU would benefit. That definitely could include games, and physics models, along with a bunch of other applications (and yes, also AI stuff).

I’m sure the papers authors know all of that, but somehow along the line the article just became"faster and better AI"

The above post is referencing/quoting a line from the show “It’s always sunny in Philadelphia”, which is why people up voting it

Why is that weirder? The people writing scientific software are, by and large, less good at writing software than people who only specialize in software development. I’d expect there to tons of terrible engineering practices in an old code base like that

I agree with many of the other commenters that OP debating their husband might not be the best idea.

But if that’s what they want, “Decoding the gurus” did at least one Rogan specific episode, and I think they do a better job covering and dismantling Rogan’s rhetorical approach than the podcasts above.

I haven’t actually read the novel version, just seen the movie enough times to know this wasn’t in it and that there was a novel

Probably the novel on which the movie was based.

Those stats are misleading though. Autopilot only runs on highways, which are much safer per mile even for human drivers.

Tesla are basically comparing their system, which only runs in pristine, ideal conditions, against an average human that has to deal with the real world.

As far as I’m aware they haven’t released safety per mile data from the FSD cars yet, and until they do I will remain skeptical about how much safer it currently is.

Yes, but notably you can design to reduce the risk of leaking hydrogen. If the areas around the tanks are designed to allow any leakage to vent before it reaches dangerous levels, you can reduce the risk. Yes hydrogen is flammable, so tanks of it are dangerous. Jet fuel is also quite flammable, and we’ve used that for a long time.

This is all in contrast to the design of the Hindenburg, which was specifically trying to hold onto a bunch of hydrogen in the flammable regime

I’m guessing that they are (falsely) equating it to the hindenburg, when IMO it wouldn’t be much different safety-wise than current fossil fuel powered planes.

It’s not like they would be filling the wings and luggage compartment with free-floating hydrogen, it stays in it’s tank

It’s optional for beating the games story, but required if you are trying for full (112%) completion.
