I gave this a go about 3 years ago when the hackday project[1] first got published, it turns out choosing the parameters is _very_ disc dependent, since every disc is a little bit different (possibly even between lots of the same type, not

As much as it was a meme, I really did see a split in what folks enjoyed between Doom and Animal Crossing during covid, and they basically boiled down to the same thing: yeah, this game is so relaxing, I just turn my brain off and play. Doo

makemkv->mkv->handbrake->mp4 is pretty straightforward for saving media, especially if you don't mess with handbrake much (I just use one settings profile for everything). _Playing_ bluray directly from disk is a PITA because

Holding down one arrow key and only pressing the other makes directional changes much quicker, since the second press overrides but doesn't cancel the first. Very fun!

Low risk, but never say never. Hilary in 2023 caused a bunch of flooding in SoCal and the NHC sent out a tropical storm warning, but with the California Current keeping the water cold along the west coast there's a pretty big barrier i

Stuff: toss it if you don't have a clear, exact reason to keep it. It's nice to have things, and if you have room for them and it doesn't cost much keep them, but otherwise it's _just_ reacquisition cost if you need it (

my thought reading this quote was: If you squint and turn it sideways, that's a solver function. Sure enough, slightly higher in the article: > “We use a circular reference in Excel to do linear regression.”

for taking a computational fluids approach, I think yes, you're largely correct. Hurricanes have a class of models that are parametric, where you can get a 2 dimensional wind footprint based on some initial conditions; primarily centr

Hurricanes specifically are pretty friendly to relatively simple 2 dimensional models, since for the most part people care about the wind impacting the surface. So for that I've used raster files - xy grid is lat/lon, and you can
