They are probably told how to query the internal parts DB which is enough of a challenge just when searching by shape/color/version. I doubt anyone at LEGO fully understands all of the naming/numbering convention decisions th

That is specific to the DMCA, not AUP violations in general. DMCA notices typically go to the owner of the IP addresses and ISP's have wide latitude on how they enforce their AUP.

What a loss for Football, what a loss for Broadcasting. I'm pretty sure I saw him coach in the 70's but my fondest memories of him are as a broadcaster in the 80's and 90's. No matter how trivial the thing he said was y

The author's problem is their access media. Get a [1g|10g|100g] [wave|dark fiber] to Lumen and all of those problems go away. As for AUP violations, they have every right to complain if you are using THEIR IP's in a way they don&

Can boiling sulfuric acid like you used to dissolve the epoxy package be used to successfully de-bayer a CMOS camera sensor?

They have the same precision but float has vastly larger dynamic range due to the 8-bit exponent. When normalized and quantized for output this does result in roughly the same effective dynamic range (depending on how much of the integer r

If it’s anything like space telescopes there are more than 3 spectral filters that can be selected which rules out a static Bayer-type filter system.

This is a rare case where “many orders of magnitude” is underselling how unlikely something is. It is estimated there are 10^80 atoms in the observable universe.

I love this. It takes us back to a time when administering a Unix system was a Big Deal. Partly because they were rare and expensive. But also they were truly multi-user with dozens of people logged in at any given time.

The intended target audience (serious adult LEGO fans or parents buying for their kids rooms) will want the logo prominently featured. It adds authenticity and therefore significant value.

The key take-away here is that he used a completely separate reporting system from the rest of the company. The implication that it's relatively obscure hardware was a shield to scrutiny is beside the point. Madoff was in charge and

They forgot at least one mystery: What determines the fermion mass spectrum and specific mass vlaues? Why do these particle masses take such seemingly random values? Related: Why are these masses so much smaller than the Planck mass? Fo

I admire your optimism about how quickly this could be reliably routable on the Internet. Unless by “gradual” you meant 20-50 years.

For successful network design anticipating as many failure modes as possible isn't just a clever mental hack, it's absolutely essential. I suspect this is true for many engineering disciplines. What I hadn't considered is ap

I'm confused about the term "sterile neutrino". I always thought it meant right-handed fields that would be paired with the three known left-handed neutrino fields if they were Dirac fermions. In this way they would not be

Is that a chart of how much we think there is (model fitting based on observations) or how much we think there should be based on how it is created? With Neutrinos we know how they are created and have a very good upper limit on how much

For example, how much of it there can be or where it comes from. Contrast with Neutrinos. But you are correct, I don't know what I am talking about which is why my comments were phrased in the form of a question or literally with the
