Yeah the MLB media team really knows what they are doing. The MLB has long had the best tech out of the big 5 sports leagues in the US

This doesn't really seem that innovative to me -- even the postal service can send you an email of what is in your mailbox.

To take your comment a little deeper despite me knowing you are being facetious, I think that's exactly it: the algorithms cannot communicate to facilitate these types of advantages. They cannot, in essence, be human.

In a world ran and dominated by humans, there will always be an inherent advantage to being part of the race that creates the game. If algorithms perfect a system in such a way that there stands no gain to be made by those at the top, people will simply create a new game to play.

This is awesome, and something I was doing as well for fun! Go's image package has some pretty nice primitives. One thing I think would make this even simpler is you could simply sequence the individual sprites using image.NewRGBA and simply setting the Pix slice to the values to draw the appropriate images, then you can avoid going to the os at all!

I just use a text editor with plugins.

Yep. I primarily use Go, so you are often forced down this way because it uses a simpler regex engine. I used to complain but in hindsight I realized it was a blessing in disguise. Particularly in Go's case, it has excellent character set library support, especially unicode, so those really tricky corner cases with unicode characters are non-existent now as well. I will be happy if I never see a regex with a unicode range again.

It's more likely that technological advances in mining techniques allow us to extract the millions of tons of gold closer to the upper mantle.

Within my own self, I have a dichotomy. When I am on the piano and reading from sheet music, I feel "classical." I am a bit more deliberate and I stumble a few times. When I am on my guitar, I mostly play by ear and feel. I throw on a backing track and just improvise the entire time. Anything accidental slips I have get incorporated into what I am playing.

I have tried to reverse the two (play classical guitar, and improve piano) and I simply cannot, or I look like an absolute beginner.

Correct my understanding here where I am wrong - In my mind, if a leaf of a tree or any vegetation photosynthesizes, it is pulling in air (dirty air by your account which is why those leaves are brown) By the very virtue of that fact, it would be pulling in those small particles as well. The paper I referenced states that this happens to an extent, which is why trees during the leafy season are more effective at reducing PM2.5 than when they are bare.

This may sound like a naive question, but how does this compare to say, trees?
