There is plenty of space to change the number of propellers, total area, and rotational velocity and change the sound profile of the plane.

There is also a lot of space on how you maneuver it on the landing and take-out, so you make less sound when it matters the most.

There is the entire thing about minimizing weight too, that also reduces sound, but it's also not clear how much can be done.

Overall, it's not clear at all how much noise the eVTOL planes will make.
Not dumb. Yes, they did know of it. But they did not get opportunity to study it. So now they have to hustle before it goes under again.

They had to do Abu Hureyra in a mad rush before it went under. That was a site occupied at the time the bolide strike in 10,818 BCE itinitiated the 1300-year Younger Dryas freeze, and burnt it to cinders and glass beads.

A lot of the digital libraries, open data sets & code repositories suffer the same (quite hard) problem: a lack of finding aids for humans. Just greet the user with the same boolean advanced search fields. ACM, IEEE, NASA-ADS, Arxiv, Genbank, etc. All are aware of open access and "researcher development", but no one has a better solution than cloud based capsule model ;)
Thanks for the article. I've wondered why they need to open access to these papers in tranches. I had imagined there is probably work to prepare each paper and possibly securing agreements?

> “Our goal is to have it open in a few years, but there’s very real costs associated with [the open-access work],” Hanson said. “We have models so that we can pay for it.”

This sort of confuses me even more. Is the "paying for it" talking about the work needed to be done to make each paper open-access, or is this talking about funding the ability to host the papers?

Just curious about what the costs are that are mentioned and the plan to cover those costs and how the results in needing to open access to papers in tranches. Maybe the model could be adopted by other journals, too?
I've got about 20 similar anecdotes from personal experience I'm afraid.

The NHS spent over £30bn in today's money on a largely undelivered and undeployed IT system that they canned.

It is institutionally incapable of efficiency or common sense ideas like this. They are immune to it. 1.3 million direct employees and no one with agency. And yes, it is frustrating. You can see it at the micro levels as a user too. It is bizarre and costly.

If you fancy a box ticking non job that's not helping anyone achieve anything they have you covered in the thousands though.

On top of that laws have actually been changed to ensure small or single person contractors who kept things running from working for the NHS. So now they are wholly dependant on large consulting firms.
Compared to many other species except marsupials, human babies aren't close to fully developed. It has to do with evolutionarily with infant brain size and the size of a woman's pelvis. Few other animals have such as a high mortality rate. Sheep, which are domesticated animals, are close in infant mortality rate to humans.
BTW want to accent, usually planes live very long.

For civilian designs, to be more concrete, private or similar to SOHO (~up to 4 people on board, or not similar but close - up to 1 metric tonne weight), 20 years is considered young, and usually they flight fro about 40 years or more.

Planes for corporations and for military/govt live even longer - for them 40-60 years age is normal.

And I talked about ages of materialized planes, many designs are from 1940s or even 1930s, but sure, they are refurbished every 10-20 years, so only frames are really old, but engines and electronics slow upgraded or at least, worn-out parts replaced with new (see next note).

But important note - exists experimental licenses for planes, which accept to use off the shelf components, but experimental license does not accept to transport persons without pilot license.
And standard license accept to use only equipment which was approved by regulator, even if this is equipment from 1930s, and it does not accept to use newer equipment from other planes (with very few exceptions).

Sometimes new regulations become problem, because for example in 1930s nobody considered computer-navigators be mounted on planes, so they does not have place for new equipment and does not have power supply, etc.

And as I said, they cannot throw out old equipment and replace with smaller new, but have to make some creative things.

Sometimes regulator and big corporations see that limits are too tight, and working on make some transitional things.

For example, some old engines from 1930-1940s uses lead as lubricant (for valves), and cannot work on unleaded gasoline. FAA, scientists and corporations for more than 20 years work on this, but 100% solution still not created, so for list of old planes still accepted leaded gas.
Interesting, I would say the same about the Diversity, Inclusion and Equity "professionals".

Well pixel accuracy is the wrong term for it, as the two options are fitting the pixel grid (aka hinting) and being accurate to the font vectors. Mac OS historically picked the later, Windows the former. It was more of a difference before subpixel rendering and now hi-dpi displays, but Apple have recently dropped their subpixel support (since it's not needed on retina displays) so it's once again an issue using macOS on low PPI displays.

For another thought experiment: if you cannot hear that original first sound on take-off, which one can you hear? 10 miles from you? 1 mile from you? That will be the virtual first sound to you, determined by how much weaker the sound has become on its trip through the atmosphere, and how that relates to your hearing threshold. But it will not always and exactly be at the point where the plane has reached its closest point to you (as in the article).

Uh yes on the first one. The Big Bang definitely happened and all the details of the study of the CMBR (for one thing -- there's many others like the Lyman Alpha Forest) show that it did.

The universe was once much, much smaller and the density was higher and the temperature was a plasma.

You can try to hide being "did you actually see it happen?" kind of arguments, but there's a massive amount of actual evidence behind that theory. It is more arrogant to reject the past 100 years of work on cosmology by thousands of scientists.
Cursed nightmare thread.
I think the point is more that the way the five year old learns isn't similar to assimilate massive quantities of data related to the desired output and perform mathematical transformations on it, even at a subconscious level (and the five year old definitely has a "conscious level" driving it too). The learning speed isn't the issue, it's that the neural net is doing a fundamentally different thing from the five year old brain (and so its "knowledge" is also going to be orthogonal).

Which doesn't stop neural networks being immensely useful (and even significantly more useful than humans in relevant domains, especially five year old humans), but might well stop them from being sentient. Neural nets are probably already better at passing Turing tests than five year olds, but the five year old's love of mummy doesn't come from statistical analysis of a corpus of texts about love and mummies.
The meme being spread from these gurus and their communities that all debt is bad has definitely led to some people making bad life decisions.

Hi,

You don't mention how much data you have, what the arrival rate is, and how long you would keep it.

You did mention you are familiar with ClickHouse. For datasets under a few billion rows you don't need any special materials views for specific dimensions. Put everything in a single table with columns for all variants and an identifying column for the type of data. Just ensure you make good choices on datatypes, compression, and primary key/sort order. In this case you can then just apply more compute to get good results.

ClickHouse can handle 1K columns without much trouble.

edit: clarify use of a single table.

Individual and age based preferences for early or late sleeping schedules have been observed in modern day hunter gatherer tribes. It is highly doubtful that this has anything to do with modern lifestyles instead it is a feature of humanity.

The concept that everyone should keep the same sleep schedule and at that an early rising one is the product of the industrial revolution and Protestant work ethic in the west. It is unnatural.

> This describes the case of a plane suddenly appearing in mid-air

False.

> and starting to make noise

False

> As long as it flies subsonically, i.e. sound outpaces the aircraft...

> If you're 100km away, the aircraft will reach you after 1000s...

These statements exhibit a fundamental misunderstanding of the phenomenon. It's not that the sound outpaces the aircraft. It's that light from the aircraft (reflected or transmitted, e.g., by landing / navigational lights) travels faster than sound.

When light from the aircraft reaches you, the sound is lagging behind the light.

At the height of a jet airliner (~FL30, 30,000 feet), light reaches you in 30 microseconds. At the height of a small plane, about 3,000 feet, say, it's 3 microseconds.

Sound takes 27 seconds to reach you from the jetliner, and 2.7 seconds to reach you from the small plane.

If the jetliner is flying at 600 mph (~mach 0.8, ~515 knot) the aircraft has travelled 4.6 miles (7.4 km) from the position from which its sound was emitted before that sound reaches you. The apparent position indiciated by vision and sound don't match.

If the small aircraft is travelling at 122 knots (140 mph) (cruise speed for a Cessna 172), it has travelled about 1/10 mi (0.16 km) before the sound reaches you. That's about 550 feet.

Both cases are for when the aircraft its directly overhead. The apparent difference will increase as the aircraft is closer to the horizon (arriving or departing).

Again, the visual position and apparent aural position of the aircraft are not the same.

You can determine this yourself, if you're outside and hear a jet aircraft flying at altitude. If you look to where the sound appears to be coming from you will not see the aircraft. It is going to be nearly 5 miles further along its path of travel. It can be surprisingly difficult to visually find the aircraft if you've only first heard it. If instead you're watching the sky and first see the aircraft, it will be quite some time, about 30 seconds, before the sound reaches you, and that sound will seem to be considerably far back along the aircraft's path of travel.

No, if you read the article it's from 12 up the benefits outweigh the risks, quoth:

The ACIP report projected that mRNA vaccination in 12-17-year-old males would result in 215 fewer hospitalizations and 71 fewer intensive care unit stays. Benefits of the vaccine outweighed the risk of myocarditis from vaccination in all age groups, 12 years-old and up. Our results suggest that the risk of myocarditis from COVID-19 infection itself exceeds the known risk from vaccination by a considerable margin. In light of more infectious variants, the new school year nearing and many colleges now requiring COVID-19 vaccination (either for all students or just those living on campus), these results are especially timely. Whether considering all the risks and benefits of COVID-19 vaccination or just myocarditis, vaccination appears to be the safer choice for 12-19-year-old males and females.
Thanks - it's kind of weird that it screws up the date, though.

Edit: actually, I have a guess. Maybe the moderators don't have access to the algorithm and it isn't that flexible, so the way they hack around it is by changing what the algorithm sees as the posted date of the submission. If the algorithm thinks the submission was made more recently than it actually was, it will bring it back to the front page because the score goes up.

Sorry for laughing, but that's a rather funny thought to be given incorrect maths lesson via AI à la college professor.

The field of AI-applied to mathematics is already somewhat developed actually!

At the moment it's primarily done through proof assistants such as Coq[1], but there is work done to go further and apply ML to the field [2][3]. If you have any interest in the field, I would highly recommend you to take a dive and even play around with proving some simple theorems using Coq.

Peter Naur was Danish, and was successful in getting the term datalogy established in the Scandinavian languages. Although in recent years most institutions have stopped using it in English materials and adopted "computer science", I guess for greater international visibility. For example, the department Naur established at the University of Copenhagen, the Datalogisk Institut [1], is now branded as the Department of Computer Science [2] in English. Whereas when Naur was still running it, he called it the Datalogy Institute.
