How is that even possible? The beam incidence angular calculation (and multi path dispersion) creates insane complexity that must be computed on the fly to even make sense. For instance: a beam hits some material and needs to reflect or w

"A RIVER" looks like oscilloscope output. Maybe something from a more advanced digital scope with high speed differential signalling pattern analysis.

This brings up a good point. I need to buy from the vendor that's doing some good with my money. Sometimes I hesitate to buy from Newegg because I can always find the parts cheaper (Hey! Rent's a killer on the West coast right

I found I could only rotate for about 90 degrees plus/minus. I tried to circumvent the problem by dragging my cursor outside of the window and bringing it back in on the opposite side so I could continue rotating. Strangely, the game

I love that. All that corporate maturity and yet the young gamer lived on. He was the perfect Nintendo president. How are they going to fill those shoes?

I wonder if there's a sort of JTAG port into the neural network to do direct scans of the individual neurons.

A few decades back when I still smoked cigarettes, I really enjoyed simply getting out of the office on a periodic basis to gain perspective. No more cigarettes, but I still stand up and walk around the block. Still works great.

Reminds me of that article about the Sony Aibo dogs ending their mechanical end of life. After 16 years, they are failing and they're no replacement parts. Point being, if Sony had kept going with that incredibly sophisticated robotic

My only question is, is the real time telemetry at a high enough resolution that the exact cause of the explosion can be ferreted out? I'm guessing yes. This is another very important learning experience. One of countless thousands

You bring up a good point. There's no qualification test for wisdom. Is someone a bitter dogmatic psycho? Or are they warm and truly emotionally intelligent? No way to know. One problem is that there is no real regard for wisdom in

In my mind I see this as a social health crisis. The elderly provide an unbelievable amount of wisdom to the next generation. By abandoning them, we abandon our children's future. I think of the elderly as an essential vitamin for c

Is it possible that LGBT marriage rights were officially recognized because it was becoming apparent that the next step was to strip religion out of the discourse? Thereby losing a valuable beachhead in society? Nah. To conspiracy theory

It's more like slave siphoning. Once someone is tagged as a criminal, there are seemingly endless ways to suck money from them, their families, the state, and the federal government. Each American indoctrinated into the criminal just

I wonder the same thing. My code snippet database and the Google references have nearly everything I would need. But that doesn't work in an interview. They want to see you code on the spot with no backup resources including Google.

I was a VB6/winforms expert at one point. Remember ADO? How about RDO? And when I say 'expert' I mean I made VB6 stand up and beg. Full error trapping, NT services, multi-tasking. I've forgotten more than many peop

The bar for "grade A" is REALLY freakin high. I'm not talking about applying for low level dev positions. I only apply for senior or higher positions. Autodidacts like me are no longer interesting to companies.
