Make it 8 stations instead of 7 to have an excess of energy and then use the extra energy, when there's not enough demand, to produce fertilizers or other energy-intensive goods.

The speed of chemical reactions are usually proportional to surface area. If a fiber with a Li Ion core is exposed to air, the area will be limited to 2 tiny circles from each side of the broken fiber. So, we're not talking about explo

This is actually something completely different. :) This is a show case for eFabless that uses SkyWater PDK to build actual ASICs on a 130nm process. They are making a toy 8x8 FPGA, just so that people can play with an FPGA ASIC that was cu

For the first point, I think they are fine: FPGA stands for field-programmable gate array. This is exactly what they make, even though the array is very small. As for the question, I don't know. But they have a comment section, maybe i

My guess would be that the first prototype that they made was too buggy to publish. The promise is that they will share the final design, and I am fine with that. (I am not affiliated with the project, but backed it)

by krasin 5y ago
Yes, it's very limited. Personally, I backed for two reasons: 1. It will add a nice open-source reference design for a (small) FPGA that is compatible with the open-source SkyWater PDK. I am sure someone will take it and improve upon.

The intern in question is Matthew Tancik, who is one of the primary driving forces behind Neural Radiance Fields. It is one of those cases, where the employer (Waymo) is lucky to have such an intern. I can't comment on the second part

The difference is the number of transmitters / receivers. TSA uses an array of them (from top to bottom) with narrow beams and they also rotate them and ask you to not move, so that effectively their number is considerably higher (ten

I really must have phrased my message more clearly. I meant reconstructing images, not identifying who is inside. The latter is quite feasible, and you're correct that extra data helps with that as well. Just like with browser pinning,

by krasin 5y ago
Theoretically: yes. Practically, there are limits to that.

by krasin 5y ago
By not exposing anyone I meant reconstructing an image. Identification is a different story and there are multiple ways on how to achieve that (heartbeat classification is an obvious one). If you have ideas how to reconstruct an image with

I worked with mmWave radars previously, but not professionally. In my opinion, it would be quite challenging to extract enough features from the current generation of mmWave radars, such as TI IWR1642 ([1]) which have around 4 receivers and

Nice! Thank you for extracting that. I missed it.

Thank you for adding these details. My current Linux laptop (released in 2015) can sleep for about week, resume in 3-4 seconds. Am I reading your comment correctly that buying a Framework would degrade my user experience?

by krasin 5y ago
Thank you for link to the video. I watched the relevant part, where it's suggested to set pcie_aspm_on_bat=powersupersave. According to the Framework forums, this is not helping and people see 7-8W power consumption while in this &quot

>Battery life goes down pretty quick when sleeping Thank you for confirming. I guess I will have to wait until an improved version of Framework that supports proper sleep.

by krasin 5y ago
+1. I'm holding on buying a Framework laptop because I've heard that it does not support proper sleep. It would be great to hear if the issues with heating / losing battery when sleeping in a backpack are real or not.

This kind of information is usually deep inside EC (embedded controller) and what they expose to the host system is limited. So, maybe it's possible, but I am not aware of a practical option. Update: it seems that Linux gives some stat
