One of these: 1. Using a proper programming language that doesn't allow you to setup arbitrary functions as signal handlers (since that's obviously unsafe on common libcs...) - e.g. you can't do that in safe Rust, or Java, et

Are you really writing them? Seems written by an LLM for the most part.

How about writing it properly in an efficient language that doesn't use a GC? (i.e. Rust or something equivalent)

BTW, their specs says it wants minimum 100W USB PD, so you'll actually need a different battery that can do that which is probably going to be heavier (the NB20000 tops out at 45W), assuming that's accurate. The 630g Anker 737 Pow

But if you are driving (and thus can haul unlimited weight including huge solar panels, batteries and inverters) it seems like the existing Starlink dish would be fine, and this looks like might be worse since it doesn't have automatic

It will be very niche because most people who spend time in nature seem to be either: - Car campers, vanlifers or people living in a place permanently, which can just use the heavy Starlink version or go where there is LTE coverage - Thru-h

I mean ideally (for Internet access purposes) one would have worldwide LTE coverage via cell towers and just use smartphones; the Starlink system is an alternative to that, so it makes sense to compare it. From an individual perspective, if

Compared to being in LTE coverage and only needing a smartphone with 2-3W power draw (around 10% of the Starlink Mini).

So basically, you can carry: - FlexSolar 40W panel: 1.35kg - Nitecore NB20000 ~75Wh battery: 300g - Starlink Mini: 1.1kg - Smartphone: 250g For 3kg you have something that should give 2-3 hours of Internet usage on an average EU/USA go

Testing both your code and the message system is exactly what you want, since if the message system is broken in a way that upstream didn't catch, you want to learn about it during testing and not production, if possible.

Is there a way to make a Starlink dish that is viable for backpacking (i.e. 5kg at most, but preferably 0.5-2kg, including the solar panel and battery needed to power it) or is the satellite LTE service the only possibility?

No, I mean of whitelist of full GraphQL queries with string/number arguments, where you can only run one of the queries in the whitelist, and the client can only choose which query and the string/number values, but not submit an a

I think the only reasonable way to use GraphQL on a freely accessible server is to only allow a set of whitelisted queries, ideally automatically extracted from the frontend codebase, stored on the server and invoked by id and arguments. Th

They probably start with Bing results and do custom filtering, ranking and presentation, so without the initial Bing results they can't do anything.

It seems the problem in the ULA analysis is that it assumes that the cost of the reusable parts, saved by reuse, is only 30% of the total launch cost. But Falcon 9 seems to cost $40-60 million and carries 200 tons of RP-1 which seems to cos

All circumstances where correctness and security are more important than maximum possible performance, once it's mature enough (which will probably never happen), since it provides a proper and secure architecture.

Weight gain/loss depends on calories, so you can eat anything to either gain or lose weight as long as it's the proper quantity (although if you want to gain muscle then you also need enough proteins).

The 1T$/mg figure also is only based on electricity costs, since energy efficiency of antimatter is currently 0.4*10^-9 according to the paper.

One of the main goals of GrapheneOS is to release security updates as soon as possible, so if it's patched upstream GrapheneOS almost surely includes the patch. Sometimes they even adopt pre-release AOSP security patch levels or backpo

Presumably the LLVM and Cranelift backends in the same rustc version generate code with the same ABI, and it would be a bug if that wasn't the case.
