Today marks the 27th anniversary of the manga's serialization!! 🎉
We'd love to hear what first made you a fan of the series, along with the one scene that you'll always remember!
#NARUTO
Une autre étude, à paraître dans le Journal of Urban Economics, confirme ce que d'autres ont déjà montré.
Construire des logements pour le haut du marché permet de réduire les prix des logements plus modestes. Ce n'est qu'un jeu de chaises musicales.
Ce qui compte, en première approximation, c'est de construire. Dès lors, si forcer la construction de logements pour le bas du marché aboutit simplement à moins construire, l'effet est négatif pour tout le monde.
The sad reality is that this is 90% of the world. Just pointless misery. And the hard lesson taught to us by colonialism is that even if we step in and run things for 50 years the minute we leave its right back to this. All we can do is look away. We cant save them.
A giant dragon's sudden siege heralds change in the Forbidden Lands, for land & sky. The Expedition steels themselves as familiar and undiscovered Elder Dragons emerge - and a disturbing new threat prowls the land.
The Wilds evolve with #MHWilds#Ascendance in 2027!
Investors like Paul want the immigration debate to be strictly polar because it is the only way their traitorous ideas might seem reasonable.
They paint one side as racist, backwards, economically illiterate absolutists and the other as enlightened, growth-minded cosmopolitian realists. Support for laws that protect American citizens can be dismissed as uneducated, anyone who hires immigrants or foreigners in any capacity a hypocrite.
American law should, and does, advantage American citizens. We should not have to compete on an even playing field with billions of people who almost universally don't share our values or respect our institutions, even if they are "the most qualified" or willing to work double the hours for the same wages. The men running Operation Paperclip did not think Americans should have to compete with the entire Third World, they understood that a carefully controlled amount of highly-skilled expert immigration is net good for America even when allegience is in question.
It is worth noting that even on a purely economic level, ignoring all burdens of loyalty or allegiance to your countrymen and treating America as nothing but an economic activity zone, it still doesn't make sense to say without qualification that foreigners should get any job where they are more qualified than their American counterpart.
As just one easy example out of dozens, about 20% of immigrants return home after less than five years, taking all their savings and vested shares with them. Another 20% will leave within ten years, doing the same. All the while, they will wire, on average, ~15% of their wages out of the United States economy every month. Some occupations and origins average 30%! The idea that this should be completely ignored with regard to employment and immigration policy is rampant among the same people who tell you with a straight face that limits on immigrants will destroy the American economy, that the dumb rednecks need to be saved.
I lean very libertarian and have strongly supported immigration to America for many years with countless public examples. That doesn't put me on the same side as the men who want to sell out America, and no amount of long-past accomplishment obliges any of us to listen to their lectures from the other side of the Atlantic.
Depth-aware light injection in TypeGPU
I got a 448x448 monocular depth model down to ~8 ms on my M4 Pro across ~250 dispatches, which is fast enough to use in realtime :D
Since the inference is written directly in TypeGPU, I can just feed the depth buffer straight into the lighting pass. It never has to leave the GPU or go through any extra synchronization/interop step
Inference, lighting and draw all go through the same command encoder.
