USB C is perfectly capable of connecting two equals, even with USB-2. It merely requires one side to be capable of behaving as a device, with the other side behaving as a host. I.e., unlike PCIe hubs, you won't get P2P bandwidth saving

I think a better question is whether it's compatible with hydrogen, because 20K is plenty cold enough for REBCO, just not for classic Type-1 superconducting wire in magnets.

8bit permutations are part of GF-NI; you select which source bits to XOR together for each output bit, and for each output bit whether to start with a 0 or a 1.

Note that large amounts of natural gas distribution networks are hydrogen-capable, and adding decarbonization reactors to the supply allows CO2-free operation of formerly natural gas appliances. IIRC the process is thermal cracking of the m

I am still searching for reasonably priced T-Shirts that only have seams from the armpits to the hips (one such seam per side), and optionally at the 4 holes for edge reinforcement. Critically, this means no seams on top of shoulders by any

Termux-API lets you access the Android HSM with a "how recent was the last unlock" limit attached to the key and a screen it can pop up to let you "unlock" without first locking. Via PKCS11 libtergent.

Hmmm, I could think of using it to update a DDPM with a conditioning input as the dataset expands from an RL/online process, without ruining the conditioning mechanism that's only trainable through the actual RL itself. I.e., self

Sadly the solution, a firmware variant with ZNS instead of the normal random write block device, just isn't on offer (please tell if I'm wrong; I'd love one!). Because with ZNS you can get away with tiny caps, large enough to

Samsung 980 Pro SSDs, the early generation ones (they seem to later have replaced them with a different, likely worse architecture), have average latency 4k reads of 30~70~120 microseconds for single queue/70% of the IOPS the 120us get

You don't need to know which one of the two was bad; it's not worth the extra overhead to avoid scrapping two in the rare case you catch a persistent glitch; sudden hardware death (blown VRM or such, for example) will dominate eit

If you have to walk 20 minutes to get a parking space, the parking meters were non-existent, too cheap, an unusual event happened, or parking fees weren't enforced.

But for that the density reachable without elevators (if you're ignoring accessibility; i.e., 4~6 floors plus basement) suffices. And yeah, having the bottom floor be commercial is often effective. Even if it's just a GP's do

And in Roman times, concrete was laid in lifts like how foundation soil is handled today. Yeah, it's more effort than just pouring a thick soup into a vibrating mould, but e.g. precast slabs could handle a non-pourable paste. The side

Ehh, secondary radar is still radar. Swapping the passive reflector for a preamble/header triggered gated (after header received, active for some short duration) non-passive echo, doesn't negate the way of "send radio wave, r

You're aware that capsules commonly use cork as ablative heat shielding, right? If you want to be better, you'd need something like the shuttle to get by without ablatives.

AFAIK electrolysis will force you to utilize a scrubbing system anyways once you've got current passing through the water. But getting conductivity acceptably low is much less demanding than getting it this extremely low. E.g. some CO2

The radiation is in an ISM band, which has no far field emissions limits beyond "be reasonable". The close-range limits are about safety for living being and other devices nearby, so e.g. not cooking you, and not frying your phone
