There are safety regulations that require things roughly like, "to prevent harm to planes in the air and people on the ground, either control where your satellite re-enters so or make your satellite entirely out of components that are

Cool idea. Given that it transferred ~29 mb when loading, is it safe to assume that the actual page is doing some of the processing? Is the front-end just doing the HNSW or is it doing the mapping of stories or headlines into vectors, or

What kind of constraints can you add? Could I put a unique constraint on property `id` of all nodes with label X? Could I put a constraint that edges of kind A must always go from nodes with label X to nodes with label Y? What kind of indic

I couldn't compare it to other OSINT sources for satellites, but it was pretty good for looking stuff up when I wanted to.

Seems like a source that one should not generally take seriously (Tipranks) being syndicated by a source associated with an important name (Nasdaq) as part of a larger wave of articles about how some "pact", "treaty", or

Links between satellites closing range near 2x orbital speed have two problems: - bigger doppler - the lifetime of the link is much shorter

The "routing in the mesh" slide? Definitely given where the satellites are in that picture some of the links would have to be cross-plane, it's just the whole thing looked so messy (even with it being geo-referenced on a glo

My understanding of the state of the art of inter-satellite optical links is that they have only been used between satellites that are basically in the same orbital plane and in more or less the same orbit. That is, the angle from one sate

My biggest beef with JSX is that what I might call the "most natural way" and certainly the "most concise way" of writing certain somewhat-complex structures in JSX often ends up being a huge mess. E.g. an element is so

I'm going to read that gist ( https://gist.github.com/joepie91/bca2fda868c1e8b2c2caf76af7d... ), but what do you dislike or hate about ES modules? From my own experience, they are extremely frustrating when too

Very nice looking diagrams for the amount of effort required to make them as a client of the library. I love that it uses exactly 1 WebComponent. I love / am vaguely confused that it doesn't read the component's own DOM but

The focus on "rational" value maximization on individual bets is doubly blind: - First, you and I might have different utility functions which are based on valuing outcomes differently; if utility functions are different, there ma

Quick question to others who read parts of the introduction: does the writing style smell sort of LLM-ish to you?

Yeah, the author has committed to a stance without explaining why or how, beyond kind of provocatively suggesting that it's the only stance intellectually consistent with ruling out family punishment as a policy... as if he didn't

I would say that it's unclear; that announcement appears to apply only to the Keisan Casio user forum. A machine translation follows: > The bulletin board will be abolished on September 20, 2023. > Thank you for using our service

Interesting. What personal experiences or survey data are you drawing on for these conclusions? All of what you say sounds like solid, believable inferences but I doubt most people are exposed to enough data about the interaction of famil

I usually think of an at-work "politician" as somehow taking advantage of relationships or social forces. What you describe sounds more to me like the ""10X engineer"" (with extra scare quotes for good measure)

Is UTC as a system inherently unsafe or does it just expose unwary programmers to bugs, the vast majority of which are somewhere between benign and inconvenient in impact?
