What is it with those weird metrics? 147,000 square feet across , this is what science communication picks up from the paper? The major axis of the TJBH at ~10 mbsl was estimated to be ~151.8 m and was oriented ~10.76° clockwise from the

You can easily get to about 20 GB/s by using PCI-E 4.0 NVMe in striped 4x configurations. Comparing this 16x setup to single lane SSD access is not a fitting comparison. With prices for NVME finally going down, you can get 8TB at those

Burying some way more interesting unnoticed metric in the logs. In practice, I would trade a ~75% faster drive for <10% of storage in a thumb drive use case with zero hesitation: Old: Probe time: 1'49" Read: 463.8ms &#x2F

Im still confused about the rationale of having the start of Standard Time in late October instead of September. In Europe, this was a purely British thing, that got later harmonized into the EU convention in 1996. But unable to make out

I was bewildered at this because I couldn’t imagine anybody who would find 5 NVME SSDs and two PCIe cards more useful than the inverse Never tried running a 4x2TB striped NVME PCIe 4.0 scratch disk? This stuff just lets you forget about w
