There are multiple factors. There is vehicle related degradation and also weather related. In areas with a freeze that cycle road maintenance has a flat cost component. Someone needs to pay for roads.

There are plenty of longer bridges, but those are multi-span bridges. The Straits of Messina are extremely deep and the area is tectonicly active. So it isn't feasible to build supports in the middle of the strait. If it were feasible

Free Electron Lasers have potential to generate more tunable radiation with higher luminosity. Despite this they aren't a drop in replacement for the current EUV light sources. A free electron laser is 200 meters long, so a single lase

It can be done, but airplane GPS receivers aren't jamming resistant. This is expected to change in the next decades.

Across an application the penalty is normally 1-5%. Most business code benefits from the increased safety. Parsers are an exception, but the large attack surface sometimes makes it a good idea there too.

The article needs absolute efficiency figures to know if this is a good idea. I also wonder if better conversation electronics could make a difference. I'm guessing there is some tradeoff between cost of conversion and volume/weig

The movement has been towards making batteries structurally integral to the vehicle to save weight in the frame.

Yes. The break even is at around 15,000 to 20,000 miles driven for replacing an ICE. This obviously varies depending on electricity source.

Interesting. I think single person RFCs are like most other forms of publication in that there is a long tail of unused ones and a few that take off. But you miss all the shots you don't take.

Context: I am a software engineer working at AWS in Commerce Platform - International Expansion. All opinions here are my own. Also, I am just an fairly new engineer, not a lawyer. Countries in Europe are covered by the EMEA SARL (Except fo

I like how this change was done with no excess drama and that Christoph is continuing to stay involved with Linux. This could be a break for the controversy to cool down and the developers to get back to developing.

It should be fairly easy to upgrade compatible APIs server side from reading the AWS docs. All that needs doing is to accept and ignore the new checksum header. I also expect that taking advantage of the checksum would be reasonable, a CRC3

Can you please point to where on the article documentation is being paywalled? I'm not seeing it. If Amazon removed it can you point to an archive link?

Yes, this article is only talking about asymmetric cryptography. Symmetric cryptography and hashes are based on NP complete problems.This is only when generalized appropriately, most individual hashes/ciphers are fixed so there isn&#x2

No, it has to do with the coupon collectors problem. The key idea behind this algorithm is to do more looking for an empty spot up front.

I might be misreading their algorithm, but from my look at the paper the key improvement is a non-uniform strategy where they divide the array into buckets and focus on different buckets as they fill the table. This increases the average nu

My understanding is that yes, in some circumstances this can help inhibit crack formation. The place where it won't has to do with settlement, where the soil beneath the rose sinks unevenly. This is a major initiator of pothole formati

I'm also looking forward to part 3. A good counterpoint to some of the concerns in the series is https://cacr.uwaterloo.ca/techreports/2015/cacr2015-01.pdf . This article shows "several examples of attemp

The 2.2% is not a "flipping a coin" style probability. It is a "we lack complete knowledge" style probability. So the odds that it drops to 0 with better observations are 100%-2.2% = 97.8%, which is pretty likely. These

The reason linked lists are used is for large enough allocations, there is no overhead. You use the space the application isn't using. In addition, if all allocations are the same size it is O(1), you just look at the head of the list.

No, officials have closed part of the park but the rest of the island is safe.

There was a narrow window where CPUs were big enough to have circuitry for JVM fast bytecode execution, but too small for strong JIT compilation. ARM deprecated Jazelle as soon as that window passed.

There are different types of standards. Car design teams are big organizations; internal standards can help reduce the development effort. Tesla needs to coordinate with their suppliers, so sharing this helps even if it isn't used by o

"Hypersonic" is a misnomer, most long range rockets hit hypersonic speeds. "Hypersonic" refers to steerable hypersonic glide vehicles that can turn to make them harder to intercept. There is no evidence yet that any of t

I think it's fine. It's analogous to starting induction from 0 over the natural numbers. It does feel a bit tricky though because there are two nested foralls instead of just one in standard induction. I think to derive it from st

I went to CMU and was in AEPI fraternity with Brandon Wu. Brandon Wu is exceptional when it comes to functional programming. He was head TA of 15150 for a year, I have 100% confidence in him. He took a break from TAing for some time, and wh
