Google "K-series Cam lobe pitting". Anyways, nice engines, but you don't need something to be exceptionally reliable to keep it in production for 25 years.

I'm pretty sure that most cases of x86 reordering issues are a matter of the compiler reordering things, which isn't (afaik) solved with just "volatile". Caveat - haven't dealt with this for at least over a year (mu

Would you mind linking some articles or hinting towards techniques used to "coerce" the choosing of ray sample directions so that noise is minimized even in very "specular" scenes? Sorry for the lack of proper terminolog

I always move the taskbar to the right on any remotely wide setup that I have - including my 21:9 main. Had it at the top on my sp3. On my current portable (spectre 13.5) it's at the bottom, since I kind of have to use win11 due to the

Stress hormones. Read up on cortisol's effects. XCM - cross country marathon (MTB race). 2700mD+ - 2.7km of vertical gain. A reduction of inflammation is a general effect of anti-inflammatory drugs, which tend to make you feel better.

Be careful with that feeling and don't underfuel, or at least keep it at "sane" levels. I feel pretty amazing and full after 62km/2700mD+ XCMs as well, as an extreme example... which is at least partially due to the immu

Aren't most UAC bypasses relying on the fact that UAC by default isn't "full sudo"mode - i.e. it allows certain things without prompting?

I guess you meant to say "only the people working on the software coupled to the tooling will use it". It's not just FDB & Amazon that are using something like this, and it is a ridiculously powerful type of tool for debu

Brake torque is far higher than engine torque and can be applied at speeds where tire traction is far greater - at least at the front. The rear makes far more sense for this application - assuming a performance RWD or AWD vehicle, the rear

The major "sudden" failure mode of pretty much all those systems has so far been the (brushed!!!) electric motor eating through its commutator (with the brushes still relatively intact) and stopping relatively suddenly - at that p

I wonder how strong the driveshafts would have to be to handle all the braking torque transmitted through them. Dissipating the heat would also be an interesting problem. Also reduced clearance and/or increased drivetrain complexity an

Not too different from, say, any of Toyota's hybrids (and the TLC100 / GS430 / others using "electronic brakeforce distribution")? Same with almost every EV out there, same with MB's SBC, etc. I really don&#x27

-Rim brakes means ever so slightly bent rim = SOL. -There are some decent internal cable routing setups. The newest fad (through-headset), though... -Comfort has a ton of variables, of which tyre volume/pressure/type/details(

The Prius and other HSD cars (i.e anything with a power-split device of the Toyota variety - input-split PSD) are some of, if not flat out the most reliable and simple ICE cars. Permanent atkinson-cycle engine, no turbos because there'

1.8l engines were always an option.

Sounds like the typical case of people not looking at the core work required in order for the very expensive individual items like tailored nutrition, top-end (and even customized) parts, per-race-specific optimized chains and what not to m

Good LCDs (i.e. native 8-bit IPS) have been available for a very long time. No-compromise gaming IPS's (120hz+, backlight strobing) - for more than 7 years. Decent 60hz ones (and even 76hz - 2209WA with overdrive) - for far, far longer

Regarding what others earn - I've already asked the ones that I know, and on average it's 20-30% more (mobile dev & security... advisor, you could say). About the concern of not having a more senior person around - true. I was
