One natural counter to this is to dynamically alter the computing algorithm per request (variants of Anubis?) so that the scrapers would need to rewrite their accelerator each time or just use the unoptimized JS version...

Fun Fact: Diffractive optics exhibit chromatic aberration in the opposite direction to Refractive optics, so the two can be used together to cancel each other out! Of course, that doesn’t help with the weight on a space-based telescope, but

There are mechanical ambient noise generators that generate sound via fans and rushing air in a special cavity; a popular one is the Marpac Dohm. I've considered 3D printing custom shells for it to further tune the sound profile to ach

That’s a shame; I hope they’re allowed to come back in a revised article. …or perhaps Nature felt it was too early for a discovery of this magnitude to be published ;-)

Mixing graphite into HDPE appears to make it immune to UV photo-degradation. There’s even a company that capitalizes on this by making durable boat hulls with it: https://tidemanboats.com/ Not sure how it holds up in plasph

I've noticed Apple products can feel like they buzz when plugged in, but I assumed it was just the inverter and poor grounding... Do you think a multimeter or oscilloscope would be able to pick up the potential between the device and g

Actually base-OpenCV has a great function for this: `cv2.findTransformECC()`: https://learnopencv.com/image-alignment-ecc-in-opencv-c-pyth... It can do dense translation, translation + rotation, Affine, and Homography align

Are you kidding? If someone really has good evidence for the Earth being flat, that could potentially be one of the most important observations of all time! As the Litany of Tarski goes: “If the Earth is flat, I desire to believe the Earth

Since the train only shakes side to side (and not up-down or forwards-backwards), you only really need spring dampening along one axis. While you could set up a linear rail with some pretensioned bungie cables (similar to how the Hover Glid

While they might be linked, I find it difficult to believe modern males have lower testosterone than pre-80’s females (which I’d expect if simply “Low-T” was causing the current surge in obesity in both genders). It’s possible the threshold

Another interesting clue to add to a growing body of evidence that the obesity epidemic is due to an unidentified environmental contaminant and not explicit changes to diet or “discipline”: https://twitter.com/mold_time&#x2F

Even worse, two parties with animosity against each other will rank each other at the bottom of stack, allowing the generally amicable independents to sweep the election. It’s the perfect way to incentivize depolarization.

Everything in BotW has that formulaic/modular/cookie-cutter feel that a Bethesda game does. None of the side quests particularly stood out to me, whereas I’ll frequently recall hidden gem areas in OoT and Wind Waker with fondness

Can’t we tell whether the 4% difference between SARS-Cov2 and RaTG13 is responsible for the Furin Cleavage site? If so, that would be a huge connection suggesting GoF and the template coronavirus SARS-Cov2 was based on

Would be nice to see Intellisense-style hover tooltips on code-blocks someday (via referencing a `.d.ts` or `.ts` file). There might be some minimalist way to get Monaco into read-only mode for it...

Hi HN, I've been working on this tool for the last couple of months, and I feel like you guys might appreciate it. I love OpenSCAD, but it's showing it's age. So I decided to build a luxury version with VS Code's Editor

Nice UI; I really like the timeline view! I would highly recommend adding .webm export (since Browser-based .webm encoding strongly correlates with the ScreenCapture API). If you'd like an example, you can reference my take on this:

Hi Paul, I'm a big fan of your work democratizing holography, and I love the idea of a small-scale hologram printer. If you need any assistance with a Unity, Three.js (WebGL), or Shadertoy rendering engine, let me know. I'm the s

Perhaps if you want to stay truer to the spirit of the system, then you might have zDog generate faux depth buffers for each of its shapes (using gradients when necessary). Then you might still take advantage of Chrome’s “optimized” SVG ras
