It’s trivial to build your own with some basic soldering skills. I’m curious to see how this shakes down over the coming decades. I built some non-compliant (also non-autonomous) 450g drones before the 250g weight limit. They’re only for ac

This probe is flying through an incredibly harsh environment, and it’s likely tuned for certain brightnesses/wavelengths to show features better. It’s also why a lot of space probes use false color; your eyes just wouldn’t be able to

Wow - that's awesome!

I’m honestly not sure what the difference is. I kind of understand SISO, MIMO, and beam steering concepts, but just the basics from nerding out on my Starlink dish. This is what I’m talking about: https://www.twz.com/f-35-wi

Cutting-edge AESA radar like on the F-35 is incredible. It actually looks like a black and white photograph. I think your guess on antennas is roughly correct based on what we know about modern AESA.

I think it’s just personal preference. A lot of ranges offer both! I enjoy plinking more than clay shooting, but that’s just me. There’s something about long distance shooting that attracts me. Also, if I could afford to try out one of thos

I recently saw an article arguing that waiting for overall LLM improvements actually beats fine-tuning in most cases as well. What are your feeling on this? (apologies that I can’t remember the source)

It’s also in the middle of a massive hype cycle right now probably partially due to a “halving” event coming up soon. The swings have been wild lately.

Nepal can also be a different world for aviation to boot. They have some gnarly airports there.

That’s a good point. Preemptable instance can be insanely cheap. I would guess it’s more efficient for the data center overall to shuttle services around to different nodes as needed.

You’re not wrong, but generally the political friction of deploying a new service to k8s is lower than what you propose as well.

The biggest thing “the cloud” had gotten me is that I no longer have to call a sales rep and wait a week if I need a server. Yes this is a process problem, but for whatever reason it seems to stop being a problem (as much) with companies mo

To each their own, but I’m one of those people hoarding to retire (albeit at a slower burn rate than the original poster). I’m just not built for a 9-5 (or seemingly structured work for that matter). I do enjoy what I’m doing, but I can’t w
