Interesting approach, but I wonder how it handles edge cases - what happens when it encounters pockets of natural gas? What happens when it encounters a water vein and all the water suddenly turns to steam under the high heat?

FWIW, it isn't 15 minutes of inconvenience. It's far, far more due to the traffic propagation. A 15 minute pause can result in hours of delays due to a traffic wave[0], which affects airliner takeoff scheduling as well. FAA defini

I’m honestly shocked by the amount of “off” responses here. I moved fully remote around the start of the pandemic. Without video I’d have no clue who people were when I first visited the office. Having a face associated with a voice builds

As a counter to this, Sketch uses similar pricing and it was one of the things that made migrating off of it to a competitor at my last company so easy. Since Sketch licenses were permanent, it was a no brainer of a decision. We could conti

This is part of the reason why I’m excited for things like starlink - access that can’t be cut off for media companies in these locations. It’s going to go a long way in changing the power dynamic.

On a similar note - does anyone have a recommendation for a budget cdn for video? I don’t necessarily need encoding capabilities (though it’s a plus), but rather high storage/bandwidth options.

Just wanted to say that I’ve been a Photoshop user since 4.0, but in the last year I’ve found myself loading photopea more than loading photoshop. Fantastic product. My main reason is purely the load speed - I can get a basic file up and ru

It says the prediction is accurate to 1.4cm, but it doesn’t say at what range. 1.4cm at 1km is great, but 1.4cm at 1m likely isn’t usable. I’m also curious what the failsafes are like for this - how will they prevent laser spillover or misf

We probably won't get consoles having games of this fidelity on current hardware, but at the very least this shows that this level of fidelity is coming. Next gen consoles and high end PCs will at the very least be able to achieve that

Which likely is fine. Adding length is a perfectly valid way to add entropy. If they happen to add a special character, it will just complete it faster.

This seems like non-news? They're just using the amplitude of neutron emission to encode data. This isn't unique at all to radioactive decay - they're basically just using AM radio tech over radioactive decay instead of radio

In this case I'd argue it is, because to communicate between the CPU and GPU on a non-SoC computer, you need to send that data through the PCIe interface. On the M1 SoC, you don't. They operate differently, and thats the main poin
