"way less precise" ? There are only 1440 minutes in a day, so a beat is 1 minute and 26.4 seconds, precise enough. And then, if you you want more precision, like we use seconds for minutes, you can divide a beat by 100 (@500.12),

You are basically describing an automaton, some of them were very elaborate and able to write with a pen on paper. People probably misinterpreted it for intelligence, basically thing have improved, but not changed.

I have exactly the opposite view! HN load is fast but the TTFB is quite slow compared to HTTP/3 websites. On blogs that are using HTTP/3, sometimes I don't see loading time, it's instantaneous. On HN, just checking the d

I'm not sure about that. I noticed that some websites (even simple blogs) felt instantaneous when loading (after pressing enter or clicking a link), way much faster than other websites. So I opened the dev tools, and the first request

They only need to change the CDMA codes of the civilian GPS to render it unusable. Also at the beginning of GPS they purposely added inaccuracies into the timing to make it less precise for civilian use, but because of the FAA and other nee

In one way, this is better to have multiple generations because you have to fill the tapes and with new generations we have better transfer speeds. Also with the backward compatibility, old tapes are transferred to new tapes, so the shelf l

If I understand correctly the package pandoc-cli installs the pandoc binary [1], so it shouldn't beak that many scripts. [1]: https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/blob/535bd0393fe7b2f287903b942...

I think you highlight the problem with crypto speculation, it does not produce any revenue, so the price appreciation is only governed by new speculators bet that a greater fool will buy it. When you trade there must be a seller and buyer,

I know, but your are not going to produce significant amount of hydrogen to do anything, and it will not be practical nor efficient anytime soon.

by y04nn 4y ago
The only advantage of hydrogen is that contrary to electricity, you can't easily produce and store it by yourself, and thus is more easily taxable. Also, because all the infrastructure need to be created from scratch, there is no big p

I have to pass the fiber cable through conduits that are not very large and they are not straight. So I will need to use a pull line. Using pre-terminated fiber will either bock or destroy the connector.

10 Gbps is really a game changer if you have large quantity of data to transfer (multiple terabytes), but 10G cards and equipment are power hungry so I only put out a dangling fiber one in a while to make a backup but the speed is apprecia
