Because a language being NP-hard implies it is at least as hard as the hardest NP problems. For any language that is NP-hard, if one had a turing machine that decided the language,…

This doesn't track my experience. I have Ewing's Sarcoma, and my first regimen involved 5 agents: Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Cytoxan, Ifofsfomide, and Etoposide. This [1] appears to…

I thought using multiple therapies for cancer was fairly common, or are you referring specifically to immunotherapies?

According to this [1] wikipedia article, the only feature Sapphire Rapids doesn't support is VP2INTERSECT. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Vector_Extensions

At the time, there was essentially a 50/50 chance it was a lab leak or from a wet market. The issue with saying it was a lab leak at that time is that you are essentially gambling …

Saying COVID-19 leaked from a lab with zero evidence is different than waiting for evidence and then saying it leaked from a lab.

The issue there is that the listens from people who listen to less music would be worth more than the listens from people who listen to more music.

Cern uses cling now ( https://github.com/root-project/cling )

Mark Fairchild, one of the authors of CIECAM02, recently published a paper that heavily simplified that equation: https://markfairchild.org/PDFs/PAP45.pdf If the link doesn't work,…

I haven't gone through the whole article, but it seems to be conflating chroma and saturation. If lightness of a color is scaled by a factor c, then chroma needs to be scaled by th…

Do you live in Canada?

CAM16's hue lines are curved by design. Hue is not linear with regards to xy chromaticity, as evidenced by the Abney effect[1]. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abney_effect

While one commenter had it somewhat right that HDR has to do with how bright/dark an image can be, the main thing HDR images specify is how far ABOVE reference white you can displa…

Cam16 (as opposed to cam16 ucs) is perception based. It calculates chroma, lightness, and hue, and is based on the munsell color system. Hellwig and Fairchild recently simplifed th…

You shouldn't be using JCh_to_Jab with CAM16. The CAM16-UCS J'a'b' is a very bizarre construct compared to CIELAB, as a' and b', when converted to cartesian, output hue and ln(1 + …

My post is mostly referring to children, who even with step by step instructions, may have some difficulty. Look at the stickers on this space shuttle: https://www.lego.com/cdn/cs/…

The biggest gripe I have with Lego's creation of the 18+ tag is that the age suggestion now has more to do with who lego thinks will enjoy a set, rather than who is capable of buil…

I would argue everyone should learn c purely from a linux/free software point of view. So many open source libraries are written in c, and getting as many eyes as possible on that …

Wth aacs, can't new bluray discs revoke older certificates if they are compromised?

Like video, webp uses limited ycbcr, as opposed to jpeg which uses full ycbcr. This leads to grayscale jpeg looking perfect on monitors that use full rgb values, as opposed to webp…

Webp is encoded using limited ycbcr values as opposed to jpeg which uses full range ycbcr values. When converting jpeg to webp, there will be banding. Grayscale limited ycbcr when …

While price per piece may have remained relatively constant, Lego has been pushing out more and more expensive sets. I remember when the most expensive set was the 400 dollar death…

That article you cite, uses this haaretz opinion article ( https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2023-10-20/ty-article-op... ) as evidence for Netanyahu bolstering Hamas. The main po…

The linked pdf states the following: "The percentage of all births to unmarried women was 40.0% in 2021, down 1% from 2020 (40.5%) (Table 9) (15). The percentage of all births to u…

This isn't necessarily true. I tried to measure the PWM of my Cree and Philips smart bulbs, and what I found is that for RGB mode, they used PWM, but for white mode (which appears …
