That's exactly what it does, the article states that

> When worn, people could see Morse code-like signals flashed from an infrared LED and tell what direction infrared light came from.

So wearers aren't really resolving an image in infrared, although it does appear to at least be a bit directional.

I truly adore KSP - one of the few games where I'd get so excited about doing something that I'd drag my wife over to marvel at my accomplishment (and subject her to long explanation of why this particular cluster of pixels on a screen should represent an accomplishment).

So I was naturally extremely excited for KSP2, but all-along I had a strong feeling this would happen. What's sad to see is that it's not just a second-system effect of being too ambitious, which was what I was assuming would cause issues, but an even more pathetic failure than that.

The joy I get from games has a really wide variance, and barely any relationship to the actual amount of money I spend on the game. I'd pay $1000 for a truly good KSP2, yet all the games that would actually _let_ me spend $1000 are shallow skins over gambling.

The “just” there sounds polite to me. It apologetically implies that you realise the person probably knows about rsync already but maybe didn’t use it for some requirement not yet discussed, which you’re now asking about so you can give a better answer.

For an anniversary with my wife once I took her on a VR tour of all the photospheres that I'd captured over the years at places like our old apartment or on holidays. Seeing places with strong memories but almost being there felt really meaningful, and she really loved it! So I'll really miss the photo sphere camera :(

Pay for the $1/month version and invert the responses; now you have the $100/month one for cheap :D

I self host it, and I self host both the API and the database.

I've contributed to this repo (and I also self host Calendly) and didn't have to sign anything.

It _is_ a pain to self-host, but unlike claims elsewhere in this thread I do also self-host the API and database.

Sounds similar to a 'jhana' state in Buddhist meditation. My understanding is that there are layers/steps of meditation practice and the higher level ones may allow such states; people can sometimes find themselves temporarilly jumping up a few layers and getting such experiences.

After some articles recently about this on AstralCodexTen I'm reading 'The Mind Illuminated" to try and decide for myself if such "unfalsifiable internal states" exist.

Can you say any company names? I’m an ex-FAANG eng in Sydney currently considering options.

Compared to a visible light wave, the smaller “”faster”” X-rays have more bandwidth/can carry more information for the same band width—so the distinction seems to make a kind of intuitive sense.

I think this was a good interview; I was glad to see Nilay Patel ask about the potentially analogous situation between Apple:Spotify and Spotify:Artists. He didn't just ask and let the answer alone, he followed up too.

Does Chrome have a vertical tabs mode?! Because the primary reason I use Firefox is because it _does_ have a vertical tabs mode, via use of TreeStyleTabs and some userChrome.css hacks.

Yeah I'm also in the CRUD/API/just another web-app space; albeit the "high" end (high salaries, very well-known companies; not necessarily the most sophisticated technology though).

When kids ask about undergrad I say, 'Do a degree called "software engineering" if there is one, otherwise "computer science" is the same thing'. Some unis just have one general coding degree and pick the name randomly out of those two, some have both with either an industry or research focus respectively.

eg in my CS undergrad degree I got some theoretical & research stuff (simulations and queuing models, computer vision being two of the research focus areas), but also some good old Operating Systems, compilers, databases, practical programming, software engineering, etc. Vocational stuff; has been very useful!

Masters students (back then at my uni, and seemingly now too) mostly wrote essays and had the option of doing very, very little coding at all.
