Reminds me of the flash player hack that would trick people into enabling system storage while hiding the menus. Vectors just can't help themselves

It seems like big cities get congested, on marginal systems the chances of only getting half the messages is very high. It really dosnt integrate with much else, the mqtt stuff seems unreliable. It does seem like the RNode radios are a lot

I had a little page that would encode Unix time of the event in the url, then just count down. Super reliable.

They are artificially suppressing the api value by banning uses people want. If people want to opt out of the recommendation engine and ads that makes hosting cheaper and easier for YouTube. They only do it to leverage market position and i

What is with the sudden surge of hypersonics? Surely this is military funding on some level?

This seems to not have consideration for hypersonic air flow. If this is just a lifting engine it can only provide a small fraction of delta v.

Worth noting that flying to the equator can provide a pretty significant increase of payload mass. Just a quick layover to orbit.

The 1980s chip Doc Brown made on the hood of a car in Back to the Future 2 was about 6 square feet, modern chip would need to be the size of the Pentagon.

If we ignore the law of universal gravitation the ambulance can hover over the park. Rules are a part of how the world works as is the violation of them. Thought problems that deviate so far from reality are more a test of abstract thinking

If you can handle the science changing since publication in the 1930s(!!!) Olaf Stapledon is simply remarkable. "Last and first men" is one of my favorite books for just how unique it is, but "star maker" has some intere

There are probably a lot of optimizations in the silicone and software to find. It's not necessarily obvious what corners can get cut or where, the tradeoffs of tapping out new chips is worth it. Yet Another Matrix Multiplication Chip

With their bigger brains larger lungs and stronger bodies too expensive in the ice and snow. We the budget model had an advantage but in this time of plenty some neanderthal clones would give us a run for our money.

Scheduling events with lots of people and timezones was always a pain. Stick an epoch time into a url for a static portable timer. https://aisle99.com/cd/?d=s5ub7o&t=Game%20Night !

The wide angle and time lapse of these massively overstates the problem. The angle they cover is microscopic and they only cover it for an instant. In visible spectrum I find it very hard to believe it is a more serious problem than earth

The way these systems work feel massively inefficient. We don't re-evaluate our astrophysics models when reading a cooking book.

Our use of data is WILDY inefficient currently. Current training systems extract information on everything from every input. We don't read a cookbook to learn about space, but these models are twiddling weights all over these massive

This will be 100x better before the first treatment hits human trials. Imagine how powerful these systems would be with all of the health data the world has in paper vaults. These are crazy times.
