the first 2 bullet points give you an array of answers/comments helping you cross check (also I'm a freak, and even on SO, I generally click on the posted documentation links).

High definition model of the Sojourner rover to eventually produce a museum-quality copy showing the mechanical aspects (in particular the unfolding) and a robot mower for myself. https://gist.github.com/nraynaud/5c7613

When I was young, I saw the aftermath of the speed sensor belt breaking on a 1000HP dynamometer. I think the DUT was an EV engine, the damage was quite impressive. The controller capacitors had blown, the output shaft was broken, the torque

It's really surprising that with all the statistical tools we have, the signal for the link between a common virus and a disease is unclear. Even if the road to a proven intervention is long, you'd think at least the link would be

Well it was very clear from the beginning that these were a set of debug commands. A back door would probably have a door knocking semantics and a very limited apparent surface. These were direct memory reading and writing command and were

you know that the EU produce more steel and Aluminium than the US, and that its industrial output/GDP is a bit higher than the US, right?

Funny, I'm French, and I know people who developed a bit of it.

I don't seem to find a dead tree version of the book. I don't know how much work it entails, but maybe the profits of such a sale could go to the good cause they were advertising? Maybe it's the right opportunity to ask if yo

yeah, in the abstract they demoted the score from 12% to 3%, so sadly retirement is not yet here :(

I absolutely do not want to read that. I want google to stop sending me that. Either it’s written in French or English and I can read it directly, or it’s written in another language and I can ask for automatic translation myself, but do no

I would like to submit that making the open source version compatible with the closed source API might be an asset. By being compatible, users get all the benefits of the existing corpus of help on the internet. And being compatible make th

I guess "not being assholes" has been given all the consideration it deserved and been rejected after a vivid internal debate.

they don't work, robots have a higher speed and success rate than humans.

I have done crazy stuff to compute the content length of some payloads. For context one of my client works in cloud stuff and I worked in converting hdd format on the fly in a UI VM. The webserver that accepts the files doesn’t do chunked e

I had that happen, but I couldn’t fix it because I couldn’t prove I was a customer, since I wasn’t.

https://nraynaud.github.io/webgcode/ I made one too, a long time ago. https://nraynaud.github.io/webgcode/webapp/visucamTest.html I did some code generation too, but it's bit rotting.

There is a whole area of multi-domain simulation, where the simulator seamlessly jumps from one form of energy to another as long as the units match. I have always loved that.

When I looked at local credit unions in Arizona, none of them would be able to deal with international transactions.

It’s clear that more and more companies are inserting a fee on a transaction that would happen with or without them, rather than making the pie bigger.

They probably did, it’s just not newsworthy. They generally give as many arguments as they can in support of a motion they just need one to work, but the news is only interested in what’s surprising, not reporting on the trial.

The restaurant is a separate entity? I just assumed it was owned by Disney from the mere existence of the lawsuit.

A bit of curiosity: how did Postgres choose 8k pages? shouldn’t it be the FS page size to help with atomicity?

I would add another inconvenience of hyperbaric chambers: you cannot do any emergency procedure if things go wrong, which, again, entice doctors to monitor the patient before going to the chamber, and once again they’ll have 100% pure oxyge
