This is probably adding some interesting data processing steps in a few scientists work… you don’t normally have to adjust for a changing time dilation, but between the change in speed passing through the orbit, and the number of seconds be

How have I never seen that OpenScad Graph Editor!!!! I work a lot with openscad for projects with my 3d printer and it’s been a real pain adapting some things I find to save any time, because the language is a bit odd and using libraries ca

Wow. This side effect was pretty much common knowledge in Australia due to a notable early incident and the press coverage it received. It was even factored into the early vaccination process here with the AstraZeneca vaccine not being made

It’s why I am focused on how this kind of technology gets “offline” and into locally run models. If I can buy a top of the line MAC in a few years time with something in the vicinity of half a terabyte of unified ram, and run this kind of m

I honestly only managed to get my mind wrapped around how class based views worked by studying Django Vanilla Views and Django Rest Framework… while I eventually learned and understood why the built in class based views are the way they are

I mean sure, we definitely need that material science research… but for a big part of the contamination we kind of already know what to do. For textile related pollution, it’s using more organic fibres like cotton and wool for clothing wher

There’s a lot of bad blood in the artistic community (on all fronts, production, distribution and consumption) to anything crypto due to the whole NFT thing… I don’t think you’re going to see anyone trying to do something that’s art + crypt

I would not have put my money on the pandemic disease prevention measures providing solid evidence for the Hygiene Hypothesis… but the mechanism does make sense and it would be nice to see a change from handing out antibiotics like vitamin

Don't be too hard on yourself, editing text is hard... I'm pretty sure almost everyone will make the the mistake of leaving something out or adding something in the wrong place at least once. The human brain is pretty good at doin

Despite knowing about its nickname… I found myself picturing a paraphrasing of the classic physicist’s “spherical cow in a vacuum”… “Steerable brick in an atmosphere”… or the slightly more accurate “orientable brick in an atmospheric reentr

WW2 killed Isolationism… and the funeral was when Nixon went to China.

The two I can think of offhand are: China is definitely starting to do this as part of its wider geopolitical ambitions under Xi. Australia has started to dip its toes into providing security to small pacific island countries, it’s an inter

Yep… I can totally prove this random pseudonym/anonnym is definitely the same one that has… never been used before because due to social incentives you want zero links between identities and thus the web of trust is just a sea of filam

Dunno how “new” it is… I’ve definitely got a big price difference and I’m pretty sure others will to… Twitter, Tesla, Neuralink, Boring… all the non space Musk corps…. Quarter million if I don’t have to move from Australia, half million to

Oh it’s got a few solutions… but you’re probably not going to like them… there’s the whole 13th amendment issue for starters…

I’d definitely consider not letting some basic visual schematic outputs fall too far down the priority list. A lot of existing EE is basically just the visual diagrams and a lot of existing EE people will expect the tools to give them the v

You might find this a stumbling point for adoption. My first thought is this could be a good tool for me to use, but how can I send a design to someone else to get feedback on if I’m not going to expect them to also also learn how to use th

That’s my point. They are ostensibly setup to primarily be a charity even if there’s a commercial organisation buried in the business structure (like Mozilla and a few other corps) … while the charity is in control the mission is simple, th

Yeah... I have major concerns about how significantly this would impact their ostensible goals. What guarantee is there that the newly publicly listed company won't be pressured by stockholders to improve the profit margins by driving

This wasn’t just some DEI/ESG score based thing… There were people who had the answers fed to them! I don’t care why it was done, doing this seems to be the real moment the entire diversity effort seems to have become a farce. It’s una

I think you expect too much. The end result is that she assets rights she already had yesterday, rights she had years ago before DALL-E or Stable Diffusion even existed… there’s nothing new here… just existing power structures that give the

You may not be an Apple shareholder and I’m not sure how being a US Citizen has any potential to be a conflict of interest in this case but you still sound like you “drank the cool aid”… the question I have for you is where (if anywhere at
