All these "OMG the latest Apple hardware sucks" posts, while annoying, do have a pretty simple picture to paint: All the low hanging fruit is gone in the consumer electronics world. There isn't anything obvious that I would

It isn't a dongle adapter, it is a usb cable with usb-c on one side and lightning on the other.

Only if the bug in the prover allows the bug in the prover, which seems unlikely (unless the bug is pretty huge).

I have a question: Why do you want 3D models? What is the use case? Are you doing a lot of really space-constrained boards? KiCad has spent a lot of effort on making it possible to view 3D models of boards. Upverter has recently spent a w

Think about neural nets as emergent: simple nodes give rise to complicated dynamics. The dynamics are determined by the overall geometry of the system. Theoretically, we should be able to look at a bunch of different geometries and explain

I think it is the specificity of OSHpark that makes it work for them. They are also great for smaller sizes, but as soon as you get bigger than a few square inches, they get expensive in a hurry.

Who's answer is wrong? Cause no-one suggested a 16bit lookup table. His answer was to look at 64 bits at a time and do a [0] Kernighan style count. The "correct" answer was an 8-bit lookup table. Which is right is going to

This is something that everyone who studies physics has to work hard to get past. Understanding the math as a description of the physics rather than just a bunch of symbols takes time and hard work. Someplace to start: find a differential

For the AI program, what kind of ML experience are you looking for? I'm a physics PhD (working in ultrafast atomic molecular and optical physics theory), finishing up in the next few months, and I would love to transition into AI as a

Driving straight, and at a constant speed is pretty easy, tesla has almost got it down. Driving in weather is harder, but that is still a problem for city cars, I'm not sure why you think it is more of a problem on the open road. The m

The simple answer is that all the current (and thus all the power) is drawn at the peaks of the sin wave. This means for most of the sin wave no current is being drawn. This is a problem because now the average power rating that a power p

You are thinking "given N, what is the probability that N is a perfect nth power?". Think about it in the reverse. "given N, what is the probability that the nth root of N is an integer". For a whole bunch of differen

Less rush? More space? Better equipment (enabled because of the previous two)? I'm not sure.

I believe the problem is also present for a large amount of third party software, making the move to case sensitive drives pretty hard to do: [0] https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-case-sensiti... [1]

If a case depends on the quality of the legal council, rather than the facts of the case, haven't we already lost? We live in a market based economy, and better lawyers get more money, so this is the same problem. I'm not sure h

The big problem with ANY self-driving car is going to be the last .1%. Getting some sort of machine learning algorithm to drive well 99.9% of the time isn't that hard. Getting that same car to work well 99.999% of the time is where t

How do we deal with this now? If you have a job, and you spend all your money before you pay your rent, how do we help those people out? I'm not aware of any government institutions that will pay your rent for you. If you spend all

You likely couldn't get self-focusing in a vacuum by gravitational lensing. Pair production would likely dominate the process first and kill your energy density.

You likely couldn't get gravitational lensing, you would probably get pair production first, which would screw with your energy density.

I think this turing machine will only halt if ZFC is inconsistent, not if some other set theory with different axioms is inconsistent.

They are not "constitutional"... they are just regular laws. Also, I imagine the ACLU would love to help someone take this case all the way to the supreme court.
