An LED and a photodiode are basically a single pixel screen and camera, so this is basically that but in parallel.

Essentially. It's better than conventional stacking because they are taken through different lenses, so any lens flares/distortions/reflections etc in each camera should get averaged away by the others.

Gotta say, on first glance I thought this was a new thing being added to Godbolt.

Firefox is not supported apparently.

I recall following a project about 15 years ago where someone converted a car to electric using a lithium battery for range and a bank of ultracapacitors to increase peak power and handle the energy from regen. Here's the page on the p

Could you do this in zero-G, too? This seems like a lot simpler than trying to have a section of a space station rotate and maintain seals around it.

It seems odd to me that there's no ARM-based NAS with SSDs on the market, to focus on minimum power consumption rather than maximum read/write speeds.

I'm curious as to why Llama 3 specifically denies the existence of that episode, though.

You don't even need to fly by Saturn - New Horizons only used a Jupiter gravity assist, and those are available about once a year.

What happened to the original units? Are there any left?

To my knowledge, you can't really use a laser cutter interchangeably on different materials. Metal cutting is done with fiber lasers, which have very small beam sizes and have a wavelength of about 1 micrometer. However, you can't

Of course, that's only since the attack was caught early. Since it affected the machines that build packages, a next step could have been, say, to add code to Git to make it ignore certain commit IDs or mask them in some way. Maybe eve

That would look the same as a random failed ssh login, which happens all the time. The connection isn't maintained past that point (unless the payload chooses to do so).

> Does nobody make apps for fun anymore? I feel like the fact that you need to pay $100/year to publish an app to the app store and keep it there kind of kills off fun apps that don't have some plan for monetization.

I find it fascinating that this is using a process invented in 1968 and hasn't been used for this purpose until now!

Isn't part of the point that you don't need as many transistor equivalents because you can run them thousands of times faster?

Is there a way to do this in Firefox?

I learned about this from an episode of Citation Needed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blN49yGet8g It's a great watch!

There are applications for that on Linux (qemu and box64/box86 being the best known), they just aren't installed by default on most distros. A large part of why the binaries ran well on macOS migrations is that each time the migra

I don't know how long it will take KDE 6 to arrive on Ubuntu LTS, but there have been several networking improvements to KDE Connect in this release (including supporting mDNS and bluetooth for more reliable operation), so possibly it

You can see the effect in the second animation of the linked page, but the basic idea is the lower the Reynolds number, the less likely for flows to separate and become turbulent. Shrinking the scale and slowing the airspeed both lower the

Attachment isn't as much of an issue with paper planes since the small size and low speed give much more favorable Reynolds numbers.

I read the text first, then listened to the audio, and was shocked at how good that transcription is.

That's fair. On the other hand, I've been using KDE for over ten years and never had another application crash the entire thing.

On Manjaro I opened it and it stuttered for a bit and then crashed my entire desktop to a TTY. I get that it's pre-alpha but I was not expecting it to be that unstable.

The comments on that introduced me to cxx, which is also a really neat thing to learn about!

It's an API that also targets Windows. Apps that use it can run on both platforms.
