One possible trick: round down the normal volume size to the nearest 1Gb and encrypt it (who doesn't use encryption today?!?) and use it for non-secret data with a password that you're willing to divulge if pressed. This is innocu

It depends on what you mean by "contribute". Multiple studies put half-life of PLA microplastics at a range between weeks to a month (e.g. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S

But you have a problem when you want to compare two numbers (to see if the particles overlap). Or if you want to divide one number by another. In theory, in classical physics if you start a simulation on a Turing machine, then all the initi

This is also misleading. PLA plastic degrades slowly in the environment because it's highly crystalline and mechanically robust. But once it's fragmented, it's rapidly degraded. So it doesn't contribute to persistent mic

There are people who want slaves/servants and who delight in forcing other people do their bidding. Anyone who worked in a service industry knows this. But fortunately most people are not like that.

To be fair, I don't consider my research all that great. This is not a good methodology because it can be affected by hyperlocal effects. I just used the same approach as in papers that looked at the _benefits_ of bike lanes. There is

by cyberax 3mo ago
Quite possibly yes. But remember that argument when people tell you about the benefits of bike lanes and cite studies about them.

Or maybe the general urbanistic upswing was able to overcome business-killing properties of bike lanes before? If you look at research on bike lanes in American cities (or in other well-designed human-oriented modern cities), they typically

My own research, using business tax receipts following the same methodology as in PeopleForBikes papers. Yes, I'm compiling them into a book.

ALL modern electronics should be banned from regular classrooms, up to and including projectors. We now have evidence that at _best_ it does not help. At worst it's actively harming students. (yes, yes, with obvious exemptions for spec

Well, yes. But I can do that with a nice UI in Mikrotik. Other things: switch port management and bridging, proxy ARP, and so on.

For things like multiple DHCP/PD servers for multiple networks, subnetting (with dynamic prefixes), firewall rules, etc.

That's why I added the word "arbitrary" :) > However, this doesn't mean that TMs can't operate on such numbers. Well, it kinda does. For example, you can't compute the sum of two arbitrary real values in a f

by cyberax 3mo ago
Turing machines can't operate on arbitrary real-numbered values because they require infinite precision. If the universe indeed uses real values, it's possible that it's more powerful than Turing machines.

Mikrotik is really a sweet spot for routers. It's feature-rich and it has a nice Web UI (or WinBox that is now cross-platform). And Mikrotik as a company is just amazing; they still support hardware that is almost 15 years old. Other r

Technically, you don't need to stop. Gravitational lensing does not work like regular lenses, there is no "focal distance". You have to be so far because that's the minimal distance where the Einstein ring becomes larger

I read up on it, and it's not clear to me that it's actual dumping. As in "selling below the cost of production". I would say that China is trying to steer the car makers away from competing locally, as it's going t

One of my personal rules is to ALWAYS suffix the variables and fields with unit names: `timeout_ms` or `rate_kbps`, NOT `timeout` or `rate`. Unless the variable type already constrains it (e.g. Duration in Go).

Nice. I wish it had a bigger screen and buttons, though. Kindle Oasis was the sweet spot for me.

The orbital velocity at this distance is around 1 km/s, so you can fairly trivially (compared to anything else) zero it out. Then you can just hover in place, the solar gravity acceleration at this range is in _microns_ per second squa

Sorry, but you're getting confused. First you want to give car to somebody else, and somehow having built-in shitty navigation (that they don't know how to use) makes it better. Now you're offended by Android Auto making it e
