Wouldn't latency be horrible, if e.g. the drones are connected through wifi or bluetooth? My understanding is that that's why until now no serious electric piano has ever proposed bluetooth audio connectivity for the player. [Edit

And I want to precise that I am not speaking about Antarctica. I don't think that Antarctica will lose its ice cover. Only probably its ice shelves, and also some glaciers will shrink, but overall it'll stay white.

The tipping point for Greenland is said to be 2.5°C, and at that tipping point the minimum melting time is said to be 1000 years. Apart from the fact that all of this relies only on the data we have (we'll discover many more chaotic

Yes. "Thousands of years" is clearly wrong, so it is at best several centuries. About "decades": I'm not saying it will, but that it could. It is completely in the plausible, and scientists have been proven to be to

This is way too optimistic, and the melting rate is accelerating. Not thousands of years. Centuries probably, but also maybe only decades.

Staging the packages in experimental then testing, sometimes for months, before going to stable, is doing also a lot against this kind of threats. Which leads me to wonder: do we really always want the very latest version or the packages? A

Here we are! "spherical gear" (used in your link) is a waaayy better name than "abenics" (used in the link of the present HN submission)...

Doesn't make sense if the Abe person is part of the group who developped it (at least, according to the way Japanese people think of groups of persons). Unless he's dead.

Ok. I edited my comment accordingly. Thanks.

Edited. Thought the name in the linked article ("ABENICS") was a reference to the former PM (yikes), but instead it is probably a reference to the author of the article himself. Still weird to call a technology by one own's n

Interesting, however the emergence of new strains would happen anyway and is not tied to the validity of this hypothesis (thus you could not e.g. use the appearance of new strains as a confirmation of it). But did you mean "strains tha

Fwiw non-inflammatory antibodies could still incapacitate the virii when they attach to their spikes, if they are enough concentrated in the blood. So, what about it? Is this effect powerful enough to be helpful?

Would be nice to record a video of the face of the sleeper. Because it's possible that they had a look at the clock tens of times while still half-sleeping, only for the last one to trigger a wake up (and the only time remembered).

Moreover, when it's on "domestic" opinion (as stated in the article), this has nothing to do anymore with warfare... it's just tools to undermine democracy at home. And any weakening of democracy is probably to the benef

Please do a minimum of search on Google before writing something like that. Nope. It's completely Japanese. Here it says it is owned by a company based in Nagoya. https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/THE-MEDIA.jp There s

To put into perspective how scary that is, we have to remember that the Japanese government had hired (paid with our taxes) a troll farm to influence Twitter users before the 2021 elections. When the scandal was unveiled the Twitter account

This could be wrongly understood as "Japan wood industry doesn't cut down trees", which is false. Japanese forests are currently suffering an intense demand and are overexploited. A large part of the cuts are undeclared or un

A distributed grid, including many renewables spread on the whole country territory (or even in many homes), and with a redundant topology (that would tolerate many many wire cuts), would really help, in particular in conditions such as dur

That reminded me of donating to WP this year. Done. I don't care what their fundraisings are, I just know that they deserve a donation now and then. (Also, they employ more than 500 people, and this is consistent with their donations v

You may see a tree as an ephemeral carbon storage, but the forest is a much, much long term storage, that can be considered permanent (unless catastrophic fire). The forest, at each time point, contains many trees, growing ones, dying ones,

I understand the push for stratospheric aerosols, but the alleged need for deeplearning is poorly justified. All the points listed in favor of deeplearning in this article only point towards the need for heavy calculations, but I would say

I cannot edit anymore, so I add this: This is the case in a distribution (Arch) that has effectively taken the maintainer's advice into account, not the reverse. So I was wrong, and let's not be unfair to the maintainer.
