I don’t believe there’s a consistent difference between ND and NT. Everybody’s handling conflicts differently.

Now I’m holding Z on all 4 controllers.

Flask is a fun framework for making web apis.

Pika is a client for RabbitMQ, if you want to try message queue stuff.

Numpy and sklearn for numerical and machine learning stuff.

Matplotlib for making nice plots of your numerical stuff.

Pytorch for deep learning.

Pillow for image processing.

OpenCV for computer vision.

Pygame for 2D games (maybe a bit old, but I had lots it fun with it when I started learning programming years ago)

It has been known for centuries that you see a different night sky depending on how far north or south you are. A flat earth model has to explain why northern pole star is only visible in some parts of the world, while southern cross is only visible in other parts.

It’s a marketing trick. First suggest an insanely high price. Customer rejects. Then suggest a lower price, but still expensive. The customer will be more inclined to buy, because the new lower price feels like a good deal in relation to the incredibly expensive old price.

If they went with the lower price right away, the customer wouldn’t be as inclined to buy because they don’t have the incredibly insane price as a reference point.

They will just put a ruler on the ground. If earth was perfectly round, then the ruler would only touch the ground in exactly one point. But the entire ruler touches the ground. Hence, the earth cannot be perfectly round, so it must be flat. QED.

He has to finish section 7.2.2 of his book

I get what you mean, but technically Bond existed as books back then (although The Saint has existed as a book character for far longer).

Knuth has also decided that once he dies, a last version will be made which sets the version number exactly to pi.

This could be a useful tool for non native speakers. It’s not always easy to understand figurative speak in a foreign language for example. It doesn’t replace the original book. Books shouldn’t be gatekept.

I would think it was a weird photoshop job.

The lighting doesn’t feel very natural. It’s inconsistent.

Her hair and face suggest a direct sunlight from the left, but the environment suggests indirect sunlight. The background trees should have more direct sunlight to the left.

The tentfire should also spill out some light to the environment.

The tent also suggests the sunlight comes from the right.

Consistent lighting is something AI is currently struggling with. It gives off a Photoshop edit vibe.

There’s still something uncanny about it.

Still incredibly impressive. I wouldn’t believe this was prompt generated just a few years ago.

The numbers I can find of Master System is that it sold between 10 to 13 million units worldwide, so not that much better compared to the short lifespan of Dreamcast.

Mega Drive’s sales numbers isn’t too far off from SNES.

Sega’s only console success was Mega Drive/Genesis. Probably because “Sega does what Nintendon’t”. Sega managed to sell themselves as the alternative for the kids who were too cool for the SNES.

They couldn’t compete with Sony on that front. Sony was the new cool guy. Dreamcast failed because everybody was waiting for PS2.

So I’d say failed marketing killed Dreamcast.

I’m bad at being a good person, so that would make me a bad person?

That’s good to hear. I haven’t touched Eclipse in maybe 15 years and back then it fueled me a burning hatred for IDEs. It felt like a huge confusing mess. But maybe it has become more streamlined lately.

Now I have grown out of my hatred and can’t imagine a day without (non Eclipse) IDEs.

Is anyone using Eclipse anymore? I’ve barely heard anything about it the past 10 years.

It’s not that funny.

Docker is like a virtual machine, but you only run one specific program in it. About exactly what the meme describes.

GNU’s Not Unix Isn’t Much Pretty
