I think the latter. According to the decompression instructions in README.md, "The reads will NOT be in the same order as in the original file". It sounds like it's meant results of DNA sequencing processes that produce sequ

A tar file doesn't have a central directory like a zip, so you do have to search all the file headers. However, each file header contains the length of the file it describes, which lets you seek past the content of any files you don&#x

The 3 kV rating is most likely 3 kV on a human body model, which is a small capacitor (few picofarads) with a series resistor. This says nothing about what happens if you charge a large capacitor to 100v and then dump it through as low a re

A lot of vendors do for recent processors. You can easily get a z80 datasheet, but not necessarily complete info for a recent ARM SoC.

You needed to add a receiver near the load. They had a couple of variations of a box with prongs on one side and an outlet on the other to switch plug-in devices and a replacement wall switch for other lights.

Yes, that looks exactly analogous, but my question is why people don't use the perfectly good built-in conditional termination in a while or for loop and instead add on an if statement. (Also, I don't understand why a for(;;) loop

Why? That reminds me of the while(1) { if (condition) break; ... } stuff I've seen too much of and can't explain, instead of just while(!condition) { ... }.

If the attacker doesn't have the private key that matches the Subject-Public-Key-Info, then he won't be able to impersonate your server given such a cert. (If he has, then there's no need to produce a replacement cert; the of

From the docs (but not actually messing with any actual parts), it looks like the 8266 has an IPv4 stack in ROM.

For a vaguely similar use case (repeat till host is up) I once wrote until ssh ...; do sleep 5; done which stops looping once a connection succeeds.

An inode, traditionally, is the per-file data structure on disk (or in memory) that contains the user/group IDs, file type (plain/directory/device/etc; not jpeg/png/executable/etc), permissions, file size,

Aluminum exposed to air very quickly grows a thin passive layer of aluminum oxide (unlike steel rust, this layer is stable). Anodizing forces it to grow a thicker layer. Aluminum oxide is hard stuff: 9 on the Mohs hardness scale (talc = 1,

In normal power distribution, much of the cost is in generating the electricity, and the cable is cheap and readily accessible and you can easily take several truckloads of heavy cable to the many sites. Undersea cable is different, and I s

Conveniently, the retail price includes the direct expenditures on energy to make and transport the item to the store. I recall the electricity rate being around 0.08 USD/kWh around here a while back, so 1000h of 100W consumption would

Sometimes N=9, such as when the address starts 00:50:c2. This block is divided into blocks of 4096 instead of the usual 2^24 so small users can get a block for a few hundred dollars instead of over a thousand.
