I haven't heard of that being a problem for Starlink, whatever they've done there seems to be working. The Orbital AI would be at a higher orbit but still within LEO which reduces the radiation. I wonder if occasional bit flips ev

I think it's possible, I'm not familiar with what's really been tried but I see that there are some publications on it, for example there's an ESA project under way: https://connectivity.esa.int/archives&

Musk is deliberately creating a business that needs high volume low cost launch services because in order to get low cost launch high volume is needed, and in order to get high volume a customer is needed. In the same way that Starlink laun

To remove heat by radiation there's a big benefit to running the GPUs hotter as the radiation will be proportional to the fourth power of temperature. This resource is using 85 deg C versus 60 deg C for OP which will improve cooling pe

On judging vs. making, also someone has to take time away from development to do code review. If the code being reviewed is written by someone who is involved and interested then at least there's a benefit to training and consensus bui

I don't know what I want exactly but I'm thinking along the lines that SQL is already doing a lot so it would make the most sense to start with a database interface and augment from there, to try to build a system to handle all th

Very interesting. My dream is to have something like this, a KV-store, a blob store, and pubsub all behind the same interface.

This looks useful, I usually use guestfish to put files into the image before flashing but this could be a lot more flexible.

Here's what I use (as a bookmark): data:text/html,<body contenteditable style="line-height:1.5;font-size:20px;"> No save function obviously but this lets me open a new tab and dump some text.

It's true that Relativity Space Terran-R, Rocket Lab Neutron, and Blue Origin New Glenn are under development and are planning first stage re-use although none have flown. And also Stoke Space is developing a 2nd stage re-use solution

SpaceX’s propulsive recovery testing began over ten years ago, meaning a development campaign starting today would be ten years behind SpaceX if they can progress at the same speed. It seems crazy to me that essentially no one is even tryin

One solution is to have the key on paper in a safe, and then let the lawyer know the key is in the safe. If you die they can drill the safe. The nature of the private key makes digital solutions possible, but they aren't necessary. It

There must be a process for unpaid bills, whatever that process is they could just enact it at the user's threshold instead of their own threshold. Ideally a soft limit that would disable networking and resource creation and then later

One thing that would make a difference on small accounts is the ability to do prepaid billing only. That way you define your budget in advance and they enforce it. The problem with the current billing is that people who are new to the syste

Yes, in the air I'm expecting a very different scenario than on land. No pedestrians just an element of collision avoidance for birds, all vehicles legally required to be broadcasting their position to an automated air traffic control,

These are great and provoked me to really look into how it worked when I discovered them a few months ago. I'd suggest watching the 2nd (retrospective) video first, and then the first video if you're interested in more detail.

I grew up reading the newspaper every day and I prefer quite a narrow margin, here is my bookmarklet for narrowing pages (and it changes font).: javascript:!function(){var e,t;e='body {margin: auto;margin-left: 100px;max-width: 5

I bought a small-ish amount MobileCoin last weekend after the Signal announcement made me realize it was available. I might as well write up my thesis for why I like it so much, so sorry in advance for the stream of semi-consciousness follo

This is a slightly more correct command I think: du -cb $(ldd $(which ffmpeg) | egrep -o "/[^ ]+" | cat <(which ffmpeg) - | xargs readlink -f) | tail -n1 I think this is what the ffmpeg.wasm-core project is compil

I agree it makes a lot of sense for stuff that could never be offered as a free back-end service. FFmpeg is a complex app as well, I tried to measure the the size of the binary + all shared libraries on my linux system and I came up with al

It is a really good idea. My #1 question with this type approach was how big the WASM would end up -- 24MB in this case.

Yeah, I'm looking at the rationale for HBM which looks physically similar and it seems to be closeness and the ability to have more wires. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Bandwidth_Memory But the HBM photos hav

The fuel mileage sounds incredible, it's in the same range as an F150. The pilot must be a major part of the expense, meaning it could also be well positioned for an autonomous shuttle future, if those are ever fully trusted, bringing
