Depends on the circles you run in, but I've heard people distinguish nuclear bombs from atomic bombs, kind of like how atomic clocks are distinguished from nuclear clocks. I don't quite understand it because atomic clocks deal wi

I'd like a progressive or training mode. I'd also like the hex codes and name of the color to pop up somewhere, maybe part of the training mode? I would love to use this app to practice my color name recognition, not just seeing i

Same reason I like Clojure tools.build. Any other way feels a little ridiculous to do it any other way.

There's still a lot of science to be done at home. Analyzing data sets and producing good data are bottlenecks. It's usually less fundamental and more related to recording and analyzing properties of the world though. You can crun

This is one of the most messed up stories I've read, regardless of guilt of the accused.

I'm very surprised to see the Polyurethane construction adhesive perform so well. I noticed it blobbed over both ends. I wonder if the entire blob was helping redirect the load from tension into compression onto the ends. And/or i

Fyi the latest builds of OpenSCAD have a new fast-csg library. My compiling never takes more then a minute, usually it's less than a second. Waiting over an hour to compile a CAD drawing seems untenable to me. https://ochafi

While it's not "easy", I was surprised to learn recently that DIY microprocessors are far more accessible than I thought. Here is BreakingTaps fabricating home made chips, he has a fair bit of equipment though https:/&#

It's possible there were higher spikes in the past, but I would guess that they were all pretty dramatic events, and yes the earth used to be much hotter in the past. This is obvious if you think about it, all that carbon in the ground

Glad it helped, I just now see you are talking beamforming. Beamforming is achieved using phased arrays. I'm not sure if all beam forming uses phased arrays, but one of the terms is just talking about the wave itself (beamforming), whi

I think you could approximate the phased array and frequency multiplexing with a bunch of dish antennas connected to separate radios, but the dishes would need to be connected to motors to follow moving targets. It would also require a lot

by aeonik 2y ago
You can multiplex by frequency as well. Also, modern wireless systems can even multiplex by location, using phased arrays, it will beam a spotlight of radio to your direction, and can noisy data from receiving phase information as well.

The Aurora by itself is usually a once in a lifetime thing. That being said, the sun is projected to do this kind of thing more often long term. So this may be the start of a new trend. Though the solar cycle is around 11 years long, so thi

The software culture in automotive companies is completely different from tech bro culture. Also, some of the graybeards really held back certain innovations like security. Just roll your own crypto (spoiler it was broken). Some of the olde

Software is eating the world, you just need to multi class into the field that software is eating to be of good value.

Chemical and elemental properties of the walls and wall paper can matter though. Leaded paint, Aresenic, flammability, weight (steel walls vs sheet rock). The complexity is still less than software though, and there are much better establis

Depends on the size of the bird. They can definitely go through plane windshields. https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-f40a81ebb9201ba52c7e3...

Not yet. I have been experimenting with different representations of data in Neo4j, Markdown, and Orgmode. I even tried cludging the polyhierarchies into different file systems using symlinks and tagging, I'm still researching for bett

We can do both, birds are incredibly efficient, but I don't think our materials science and flight controls are advanced enough to mimic them yet. Also for transonic and supersonic, I don't bird tech will ever reach those speeds.

Polyhierarchies combined with RAG is the one true way.

Agreed, but I'm still learning it all, and it does a great job defining my curriculum.

I've never programmed in D. I only here good things I definitely agree that stuff is pretty annoying. I guess I've gotten used to it to the casting behavior. Though these days I program mostly in dynamically typed languages.

It's not necessarily just heat. Salt, acid, alkaline solutions could potentially lower the temperature at which hexavalent Chromium appears.

I thought the AR-15s that the police carried in America were semi-auto. More like a sporting rifle than what the military uses. AR-15s are more versatile than shotguns, though less powerful they are more accurate. If your going to carry a l
