I only took a cursory glance but a lot of that belongs to the UI framework (svelte)
Similar to react/vue, it’s used to render the content on the page, and automatically update what’s shown on the page when variables change value. This basically replaced jquery and the callback-hell that was mid-2000s web development
It’s a thing everywhere in Canada. Or at least everywhere north of Toronto nowadays #globalwarming
Damn you literally drove OP off the deep end
Yarn isn’t a JS runtime
Things like gradient boosting, supervised + reinforcement learning, NLP (sentiment analysis), etc have been used in algorithmic trading for decades.
Hell, much to the chagrin of statisticians, some people even lump linear regression under the AI umbrella
Also I think you are confusing fundamentals and technicals
Giraffes in shambles
tl;dr - Allegations occurred in New Zealand, plaintiff is a NZ citizen, Gaiman is a NZ permanent resident and lived there at the time. Wisconsin said “go and refile in NZ, we’re only touching this case if Gaiman refuses to accept service there”
Fair - point still stands though - the application only has a single breakpoint defined at 600sp from a cursory glance, the lack of an ultra-wide specific layout is just because it hasn’t been implemented rather than a shortfall of GTK (though I’m not sure you would even want to make the message view wider, as it would impair readability)
That looks like it’s just wrapping a WebView, is it not?
It looks like the CSS is just capping the container class width at 1440px, which has nothing to do with GTK
All this bill is telling industry is “if my product includes an uptime SLA, don’t build new data centers in Texas”, which is ironic, because that’s the exact customer Texas is trying to attract

Sounds like Oracle got them with the good 'ol “buy an even bigger license or we’ll sue you”
Your computer is a bunch of parts that need software to make them work. The “operating system” handles talking to the hardware directly, while the programs you run only talk to the operating system. Talking to the operating system is easy, talking to the hardware is difficult, since you may need to speak a hundred different languages to work with every possible network card, sound card, graphics card, etc.
The operating systems you have probably heard of are windows and macOS. Linux is a 3rd one.
Windows is owned by Microsoft, macOS is owned by Apple, and Linux is developed by the community and (typically) released for free. Since anyone can work on Linux, there are tons of different versions of it floating around, that are all slightly different from one another.
We’re at a point where it’s no longer profitable for individual miners
We have been at that point since GPU mining stopped being feasible in 2014, it’s just gotten worse. ASICs made it so the only people who could profit off mining were people who could place a wholesale sized order of hardware from bitmain, etc. Anyone else who claimed to be mining profitably was likely someone who was:
unless there’s a radical change in bitcoin’s algorithm
The algorithm already does this though. Every 2016 blocks if it took more than 10 minutes per block, the difficulty of mining bitcoin goes down, not up. This is why every halving event you see a radical drop in difficulty, because at a given kWh you are producing half as many bitcoin - meaning people turned off their miners because it’s less profitable. The flipside is the rate of issuance goes down, so there is a lower inflationary effect, and the price of Bitcoin usually also skyrockets (which means eventually these miners re-enter, and difficulty eventually goes back to where it was). It can never get to a point where Bitcoin mining is completely unprofitable unless the price goes to zero, because there will always be a guy with a solar panel and fully paid-off hardware who can mine it for free. Granted, it can get to a point where a lot of people have to take a huge loss on capital expenditures if the price nosedives and never recovers
Miners like Riot Blockchain are operating at a loss
I’m not a finance wizard, but I peeked at their last SEC filing, and first 3 quarters of 2024 they posted a 35m operating loss, but added almost 900m worth of assets to their balance sheet (mostly Bitcoin), which to me tells a very different story
The quote is actually from the article this one paraphrased and linked to, while leaving out all of the actual, you know, information
New data tells us that mining a single Bitcoin or one BTC costs the largest public mining companies over $82,000 USD, which is nearly double the figure it did the previous quarter. Estimates for smaller organisations say you need to spend about $137,000 to get that single BTC in return. BTC is currently only valued at $94,703 USD, which seems to be a problem in the math department.
Bitcoin mining will always be profitable for the people with the cheapest electricity and largest economies of scale. There is a difficulty adjustment algorithm in the protocol that ensures this. When the price tanks people turn off thier miners, difficulty adjusts downwards, and then it takes less electricity to find a block.
tl;dr title is wrong
It’s Google analytics, and the meta/twitter/etc tracking pixels. Almost every site uses them because they provide useful data to the site owner and they are free.
the images in OPs post appear to be designed to match their site theme, meaning umatrix wouldn’t even block them, because they are being served from the sites actual domain/CDN and not from Facebook/Google’s tracking domain.
This explanation is a really terrible explanation - it doesn’t even explain the point of the study or what multiple comparisons are in statistics…

This is what the salmon study was saying - if you did a whole brain analysis with fmri without an a priori prediction you need to adopt a radically more stringent threshold for significance
The salmon in the MRI was a bowl with a million jellybeans in it
