I think he is referring to microscopic magnetic imperfections in the atoms. It's my understanding these can be exploited to apply force on the atom, but we don't know how. Useful theoretically as a reaction steering mechanism.

The companies you would want to sell to may very well just ignore it and make it anyway.

The problem I've encountered in a lot of legal adjacent areas is most attorneys just are not very good. I have no idea if any given attorney is keeping up with the state of the art. Also, a lot of legal curricula are very pro-business,

There's different types of equity that you need to use to frame your answer. Nonvoting equity is colloquially not seen as diluting your ownership because you retain the reigns. How to actually try to set such a thing up, especially whe

Seems like basic legal definitions. How do I structure my equity so that it isn't diluted by braindead investors? What do I need to know to convince investors that they're absolute mongrels who have no idea how to run a business,

I'm not sure you're qualified to be commenting on this. Physicists, electrical engineers, and electricians all do discovery, but not all of them, and when they do, in different capacities. There's definitely a lot of ways t

No, no. A better comparison is like asking a physicist to be an engineer, and they should be reasonably good at that, though are usually lacking breadth of field. A CS PhD only reasons about things you can conceivably do on a computer, so

It depends? One should wonder why no effort was made to suggest he return further east, perhaps to Russia. It is possibly an oversight. But there were other individuals who I think were turned over to Western authorities. From my time with

FWIW hardline tech priests view the machine god as separate from the emperor. Hardline imperium officials view the emperor as separate from the machine god. The official party line is that the emperor and the machine god are the same, with

To wit, inflation only briefly dipped below 0 once , in '08, at -0.38%, possibly a rounding error. The value of money only goes down.

Hydrogen is not something that could work, it already does work. Battery EVs make a lot of tradeoffs making them unsuitable for a lot of workloads. Hydrogen solves them and does not need much development to make it useful for consumer vehic

There's a bunch of weirdness. Lack of USB2 to USB3 translation is one of them, but there's also a lack of USB3 and USB2 concurrency. E.g., if I put a USB 2 device on a bus with a USB 3 flash drive I would find constant stalling du

You might get more useful things from /sys/kernel/debug as well, but you'll need to get familiar with the spec. It would let you know how a device is doing something wrong and can be made better.

Will this actually save time? Not all in-place algos avoid copies.

It's not just a theory. It's real. There was enforcement and everything, and decisions made to increase profit at cost of harm to the consumer. Veritasium did a video on it if you'd like to follow up there, and it's sour

It's not very hard at all. The issue is exclusively licensing fees. Cheapest depends. There are Allwinner parts that are $2? But with the move to RISC-V, we will see costs decrease further, probably so that a Linux-capable part is just

This is a real concern. A lot of these offerings are not useful now because they are not ARM (or, soon, RISC-V). Even with instruction set match, moving between vendors is a huge issue.

Generally a microcontroller has no MMU. A microprocessor may mean the same thing. The industry term for something with an MMU is an application processor (Cortex-A). There are other terms that can be used, but it will need to be specified.

Problem I have seen many times is one engineer can only do so much work. Where in the world is $150k entry level?

As you increase the number of systems in series you increase the likelihood of failure. In this case failure is "there's an exploit." When you have A->B->C it's possible that exploiting B, the middle layer, is both

I said exact reproducibility. Every time you add numbers your neurons likely fire in slightly different ways, but the end result is what is reproducible and useful. He's not totally correct because, like I said, the way we think of ana

I had a relative involved with a study on pesticide removal. Unfortunately, unless you're using a wire brush, the pesticide isn't coming off your fruit.

It's possible, but they are sufficiently regular I think some obvious hand optimization math could get you there. I've seen similar in other fields.

That's hilarious. It was an engineer trying to be fake safe. Losing control over your device is going to be less safe than just letting the user open the door during a clean cycle if the power drops.
