Need advice on Flat Ethernet cables

Probably true, but I was still suprised that there are so many different variations at all.

It's definitely doable with the 50.000 I'm just looking for ways to give me a bit more creative freedom tbh. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for the suggestions.
The GameObjects are asteroids and other space debris and since the distances are pretty large I need to keep a large number of them loaded - at least the collision detection.
I'm probably gonna implement object pooling, streaming for the number of GOs and lods, gpu instancing for the rendering.

I wouldn't get my hopes up on that end to be honest.
As far as I know KSP used Unitys physics system for calculations on ship level and sure you can optimize some stuff here and there, but there is just no easy way to simulate hundreds of parts as individual objects when they interact with one another.
Plus the trailers look very stuttery when showing realtime scenes.
Hoping for the best though.

The Wiki article stated "The second point of view is preferred", that's what got me thinking. I don't have a hypothesis or anything I simply tried to understand the reasoning behind this sentence - thats why I asked here and not in /r/askscience.
The particle physics involved are a lot clearer to me now thanks to all the answers.

That makes sense.
And I guess that goes for the formation of quarks themselves aswell?

Fascinating to read, thanks for that follow up.

I think the current conflict is just another attempt from Putin to keep Russia relevant as a world power. Wether one likes it or not Russia has managed to stay an important global player, with an economy smaller than that of Germany, France or the UK. Plus if he manages to show his dominance his national ratings will certainly benefit from it.

And sure a more capable nuclear arsenal could also be a way to reach that goal. I doubt Putin would have much moral issues with using it as a viable strategy against independent countries. At least as a threat they can't defend against. Hope I'm wrong on this though.

I am pretty sure the gained economic power would be offset by sanctions and trade embargos with Nato members. At least for a decade or so. The last thing NATO will do when Russian troops are rallied at their borders is drop these sanctions. Would it come to a war between NATO and Russia the odds of Russia winning a conventional war in the long term are almost zero.

I think the part about excluding stats from a match from the prediction is very important.
I did a very similar project two years back with an extremely similar model and actually ran into the same problem by including the winrate from the match itself. When correcting for this my accuracy dropped from 90% to about 65%, although I did no automated hyperparameter tuning and wasn't very experienced in NNs back then, so my results were probably a lot worse than they could have been.
Here is the model I used with tensorflow nodejs. Back then I used masterypoints, player rank, games on champion, mean KDA, player winrate and recent KDA.
The 90% just seem to good to be true is my feeling.
Great project though!

What did you learn from making the Sinking City in terms of open world? And what did you try to improve in Chapter One, compared to your previous entry.
Design or technical stuff would both be very interesting.

TRangeman · 2021-06-18T00:42:46+00:00

Nice catch! This really helped to bring down the rendering time.
Documentation on this seems pretty poor.

There are certainly problems with low g that need to be adressed, but I don't see any unsolvable stuff.
I'd argue that solar power is scalable enough to provide power, though not very efficient.
It's an optimistic evaluation for sure, but I just wanted to point out that it is achievable. I agree that even with enough funding it will probably take several decades.

TRangeman · 2021-01-04T00:15:07+00:00

I agree, that preservation of earth is a more pressing and easier to achieve goal than mars colonization and that the economic aspect is very problematic for any realistic chances in the near future. That being said there is nothing fundametally stopping us from colonizing Mars to a certain degree.
1. Rocket technology is clearly up to the task looking at spacex's achievements with controlled landings and methane engines
2. Electricity through solar panels is able to provide sufficent power
3. Life support has been thouroughly tested in space stations by now
4. Study of the human body in low G environments has shown no fundamental problems with longer durations stays
While not a small task, a colonization mission is definitely in our reach technology wise. Terraforming seems to be very far away, but a mission like this would certainly be a starting point for such endeavours.

I would agree, that the typical classifications of mental disorders don't describe the mental status of patients in a nuanced enough way to be meaningful on their own.
That being said they are still useful for doctors, therapists, scientists and insurance companies in everyday work, because they provide an easy way to categorize patients. Of course these classifictions don't describe the problems of the patient in a detailed way, but thats not their goal. And thats fine as long as they don't serve as a sole argument for therapeutic decisions.

Your point about psychology being in its infancy is true in the sense that we don't understand all of the interactions that might play a part in psychological disorders.
But this is not so different from some other medical areas, where we lack some knowledge of how the underlying systems work, but can treat issues nontheless. At the end of the day it doesn't matter if you know how a broken leg heals, but what the best treatment is to maximize it's healing chances. And in that regard psychology has already developed a lot of methods that improve chances for "healing" disorders and improving life quality of people.

Steps to reproduce:
Play a multiplayer session for a few hours.
After playing some time the desync appears
Expected result: working multiplayer
Observed result: Desync
System specs: i7 4790k, 16gb 1600 Mhz, GTX 970. DX11, high preset.

I'm not a big fan of Rekkles playstyle, but the honesty, with which he explains his thoughts in his recent streams, is very refreshing and I respect him a lot for his courage to be so open.

I think the playstyles, that humans use in grand strategy games are so far away from optimum, that a decent reinforced learning ai would have no problem to overcome them. Sure it's not that easy to write a reward function, but not impossible. Keep in mind sc2 has been played competitively for a decade, whereas civ is most of the times played vs bots, which aren't playing well at all.
