Onshape is nice, web based, built by the creators of Solidworks. Free for hobbyists.

How does Nix handle areas with extensive package ecosystems? Python, Node et al? It seems like every distro/super packager has different compromises for this question.

The added cargo env variable pointing to the path of generated binaries is a nice quality of life fix. I think that was one of the first annoyances I ran into with cargo and binaries. It was minor but was like a little splinter that stood o

I think there is little "getting lucky". If they also run an intense detect, test, and trace capability it might be effective. If they rely only on border lockdowns, or lockdown and lackadaisical test/trace then it would like

The irony might be the massive human scale effort the NYT is putting in to gather and vet the data. The most interesting self learning side effort for this, might not be analyzing the data, but trying to automate the data collection from pu

I suspect if you laid transportation networks and commerce centers over the data there would be some alignment.

I had this question of software engineers with maybe access to social data. But I think I posted it at a poor time - no replies. Ask HN: Usefulness of social network data for epidemic management? https://news.ycombinator.com&#x2F

The other thing is that for this area, Boeing the corporation is mostly a brand. The Apollo and Shuttle engineers are overwhelmingly retired or, err, passed. At this point, no company in America really has an edge with experienced employees

B2G for small startups can work out if you can supply something that the government needs under a small business area. Look at SBIR (Small business innovation research) programs. The need for a network/capital depends entirely on the t

My kid's pediatrician always recommended whole milk. Personally I liked the whole milk w/o additives but would compromise on Vitamin D.

Safety, very much like security, needs to be built in during the design phase - or you're trading off the development cost for an expensive retrofit while gambling with the risk of killing the project (or even setting back that entire

I imagine a semi trailer rigged with a battery, grid connection, and a set of chargers for seasonal surges. Maybe even a deployable solar panel array, but I suspect the PV panel would be too constrained to be much more than a show piece.

Sounds like manufacturing struggles. Hope they work their way through them and are able to deliver.

The book contains many references, but it's dense. I thought admin overhead tended to go to 15% because of ACA provisions of 85% spending requirement on direct care? I would likely have to do a fair bit of digging to compare how the s

Prices for care in Japan are basically systematically set by government committees. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_system_in_Japan In contrast, in the US, there are 16 non-medical, mostly billing personnel

The design may call out a specific material and how to manufacture it, say make this part out of 6061 Aluminum, and. mill it in this way. You can look up the standard properties of that material. But depending on how that material is worked

True, the design is one important part, but the design can be 100% on, but the manufacturing and the operational inspections are important to present failures too. Variance from controlled manufacturing conditions can result in parts that b

I don’t know about the legal or other regulatory logistics cost of operating a helicopter, but the physical maintenance requirements for helicopters are likely far far higher than a potential electric vtol vehicle.

What would be nice is a useful mail ML filter which would scan mail flagged spam to trigger a "are you sure this is spam, do you want to delete instead" question.

There were other considerations against musl there. I'd summarize them as targeting a desktop/server with kernel level system, or at least a mid-to-high end embedded system, has different code, memory, and optimization tradeoffs t

Are you trying to do data lifetime analysis in V? I don't see that listed and to me it's pretty much Rust's key feature to enabling a high degree of memory leak and multithreading safety.

If you look at georeference systems, they may fit a parametric equation with coefficients to a large set of earth data. The geoid in the link below is a refinement over an ellisoid (think lumpy potato vs smooth pebble), that gives you a 3D
