    Let's call it "Westerners blaming China to feel better, while they all get the virus anyway". Seems to be Western-style policy in a nutshell right now. If you call saving millions …

    > The narrative in China right now... Because there's one narrative in China, folks, and this douchebag knows what it is. But seriously, don't buy what he's selling. The only narra…

    Drop the China bashing. If we're going to criticize any government on this issue, we need to criticize all of them. Was there really any government without guilt or incompetence in…

    It's centered on the island of Hainan. I want to know what the center of mass is for that picture, since the humans are not uniformly distributed in that circle.

    I think speed can be improved further, by constructing a parallel version. Possibly, this would be similar to how BLAKE3 used Bao mode to parallelize.

    Really? This one is a 3D sensor. Off-the-screen gestures. Have you seen people making gestures above the surface of their phones? I haven't seen that. Why hasn't it happened yet? e…

    Why has this not taken off? Off-the-surface gestures seem like they'd really enrich smartphone experience. I don't get why this low power proven tech has not been incorporated into…

    Calmly relating my perspective is not bickering. It's not even meta, because I was directly addressing what's written. Maybe some people are not happy with it, but you don't have t…

    Thanks. It brings a smile to my face how discussion forums take themselves so seriously, thinking they're all about robust discussion, but go batshit crazy on some dissenting point…

    There's no lack of charity. I would know, I wrote it. And the downvotes occurred before the community critique. Which also must have hit a nerve. I think meta-questioning "do you e…

    I guess the paradox of killing them all so quickly is it's unlikely the signal of poor quality propagates widely first time I saw it was today and I thought it looked cool. I think…
