I get how tiny that is compared to space, even that in Earth's orbit.

But since these satellites are super precise, could we make a plan where two of them zoom past each other with just a 5-meter gap without fearing them colliding?

I mean, if robocars can do it driving centimeters apart, why not satellites?

That's at the universe-sized level. At the galaxy level, as you state, we say "oh, that galaxy has almost no dark matter". That's a per-galaxy parameter. At the Bullet Cluster, we say "the dark matter must be here and here". That's a point-by-point distribution.

> It always irks me that discussion of space debris invariably talks about their high velocity relative to the ground, which is completely meaningless.

It's obviously an issue with point of view, but considering only relative velocity isn't also a solution.

If two spacecrafts are on a close approach trajectory, one of them might need to course correct to fix that. Changing the relative direction might allow them to avoid the collision, but will also change their orbit, leading to other problems down the road (e.g., out of wack apo/periapsis). Fixing the orbit after the close approach will also cost more fuel and/or angular momentum, which is in short supply on most spacecrafts.

I like to think about it like two nascar cars. Sure, if you are driving one, the other cars seem to be almost not moving from your seat, but the spectators see something completely different. Any small change (from the driver's view) in steering can have big effects overall.

Really is? Ground speed is still what I expect and want to read, relative speed to each other at time of rendezvous would also be nice sure.. still, I mean depending on vectors, it may be over- or underestimating almost the same.. and I claim ground speed is what most people would expect. As someone said, the chance that their rendezvous speed is magnitudes off is slim.

It seems like an interesting idea if there’s a way to make it not impossibly expensive to run, or too prone to fraud or both. Often there are these great sounding ideas that are impossible to implement. Our best laid plans go awry. Like NAFTA, and granting China most favored nation trade access. Seemed like great ideas at the time. Juiced the stock market no doubt. But now two or three financial crises later, the taxpayer is going to be paying incentives to try and bring some of that lost manufacturing back. Will it work? Same people who told us with confidence they knew what they were doing before are saying the same things now. “Just trust us, we know what we’re doing.”

Perhaps these vacillations in core political beliefs (protectionism is bad under trump, suddenly good under Biden) should be taken as a sign of incompetence by observant educated voters.
But that only works when the JXL has been losslessly converted from a JPEG in the first place, right? So this wouldn’t work for all JXL in practice. (Unless I’ve missed something and this is not the case.)
If I understand correctly the other comments, they just say it's possible to do in c++ with templates/operator overloading/constexpr. It's not an existing type of the standard library. This type could work in simple situations but will probably not be as good as a native type in more complex situations.
But momentum is also conserved over time, as far as I know 'conservation' of all of these things always means over time.

"In a closed system (one that does not exchange any matter with its surroundings and is not acted on by external forces) the total momentum remains constant."

That means it's conserved over time, right? So why is energy the one associated with time and not momentum?
Most DUI crashes happen at night, when public transportation is going to be even less useful, and Uber/waymo are important in making things better. Carjackings don’t happen here, although they do happen south of here (a poor girl got shot dead in tukwila a few weeks ago). KiaBoyz are a problem, especially with our non pursuit law (the girl was killed by kids who were let go by Seattle police earlier in the day because they couldn’t chase them).

I always take transit downtown despite the risks, it’s just too convenient, but that’s just occasionally. My wife takes it also, a lot more, and it’s a completely different fear factor for a woman traveling alone. However, that’s all we really use it for, for anything else we drive. This is in contrast to my experience living outside the states, where I could actually live without a car.

All of transit’s safety issues are actually preventable by just being more strict about what people can get away with on buses (eg no smoking fent on the bus) and enforcing fares (not for the revenue, but people who don’t pay fares are more likely to cause other problems). I’m pretty sure if anyone tried these things in Lausanne, multiple swat teams would be on them quickly (heck, I’ve seen that happen for just not paying fares, don’t mess with Swiss police or even Swiss transit police). If Seattle wants us to use transit more, they need to take safety more seriously. Other countries do that, they get better results. Otherwise, we will lean more heavily on private transit like Waymo.
The gravitational effect of a lot of spread out mass outside the Oort cloud (or indeed, a lot more mass in the Oort cloud) would have a different effect on the orbits of the planets than a single planet that we had not found yet.

So for some known configuration of orbits of the known planets, there are a limited number of solutions (in terms of mass, inclination, eccentricity, etc.) that you could add to the gravitational interactions of the solar system and still have the current orbits we observe. That gives a reasonable guess about what (another planet) and where (in the sky) to look for to explain anomalies.

But with distant objects that don't emit their own light, even having a good guess of a bunch of the orbital parameters doesn't mean it is easy to find, because you don't have much sunlight reflecting off of it, and the chances it will occlude something else brighter (like a background star) are needle-in-a-haystack level.

Even _if_ you knew the _exact_ orbit you were looking for, there are 360 degrees of sky to search for a tiny, dark object, because you don't necessarily know where in the orbit the object currently is.

It matters where the cold condensing surface is in your wall, and what you do with that moisture.

If you took a cross section of wall, and you have interior temp (20c) on the inside face of the wall and exterior temp on the outside face section of wall, somewhere inside that section you’re hitting the dew point and condensation will form.
> It’s that a lot of the performance difference comes from the difference between a mobile tile based GPU and a desktop one.

I just told you - a tile-based GPU can impliment every single raster feature Vulkan 1.2 requires. You haven't demonstrated a single reason that couldn't be true, and instead you're just claiming it's too different to work. Why can't Apple Silicon support a Vulkan API, from your informed perspective?

I must have missed something - Qualcomm's tile-renderer GPU has no problem with it. Even Nvidia's steaming dogshit Vulkan drivers get pixel-perfect DXVK coverage, mobile or desktop.

> And yes I know there’s proton on Android, but it’s far from prolific of performant

It's incredibly performant. The GPU was at a fraction of max usage while translating the entirety of GTA-V's shaders. I'll say it again - the GPU side of Proton is "solved". Pending a better solution, it is the definition of performant.
Orbital inclination is the big one. A polar orbit intersecting an equatorial orbit would have a very high relative velocity.

On the other hand two orbits in the same inclination, with one being slightly eccentric, their relative velocity is much lower.

Almost all freeware has always been for Windows, "safe" has always been the elusive thing you can only gather from experience.

For the longest time there were only what is now called Windows "desktop" applications, still seems like the real thing compared to the Apple-inspired "Store" apps, which have that amateurish feel.

So far I have no need for the MS Store but I don't uninstall it "just in case". Still haven't used it though, it's not easy finding software or even hardware that's "worth money".

It’s the 101 of talking about testing, it’s been discussed to the death. As usual, “it’s a trade-off”.

You’re right that writing tests can make shipping a feature slower. However, already having tests makes shipping a feature faster (higher confidence it works, less manual testing of the feature and the adjacent ones). It also lowers the amount of bugs, which are going to slow down delivery of new features. They also increase maintenance cost though (tests are code that needs maintenance too).

Is it worth it? Depends, although it’s quite rare that no test at all is the right trade off

OSS-fuzz is great in many cases but as this post hints at it seems like a lot of the time the fuzzers miss things because no one actually reviews the coverage info. Not in this case, but sometimes it's like someone just found the functions with signatures like parse(unsigned char *data, size_t size) just to get the money from Google for integrating fuzzing.

Then again some things are just difficult to fuzz properly. I tried writing a libpurple IRC harness by doing it the "right way" with the 3000 libpurple event callbacks you are supposed to set up and structures you are supposed to allocate, which worked, but it was very slow. I ended up being lazy and only calling irc_parse_msg after modifying the code to remove error logging that required proper libpurple setup.

Musk makes big bets. 1000x bets, as GGP said. You can't expect all of them to work out.

If you ask for a CEO who would keep the company on a steady course, you'll get a CEO who doesn't make those bets.

Actually it might be time now for Tesla to switch to that CEO. It's hard to imagine another 1000x bet paying off for Tesla from its current value.

But that wasn't the case in 2018 when this pay package was decided, when Tesla was valued at only $50B (and that value was already factoring in high growth expectations).

I actually never understood the appeal of Kubernetes in the first place. I have production apps running on bare bones VMs serving millions of customers. Is this sort of complexity really necessary? At this point I would just consider serverless options. Sure, they would be a little more expensive, but that's a huge savings if we account for engineering teams' time.
I haven’t followed it too closely, but he posted a video saying that previous iterations of the machine didn’t make good music. They were really loud (mechanical noise drowned out musical noise) and didn’t play music in time. In fact, the video from the submission has had its audio significantly edited to sound pleasing. I believe he posted the raw audio a few months ago in a video. His current design looks much more promising.

Sadly I think you're right. It's inevitable that everything continues to move in this direction.

> provide a compelling explanation of how the way iOS runs PWAs constitutes a use of Safari, or of web browsing.

Oh, this is easy.

First-party software is distributed by Apple. They choose how that software is presented because they are the operator of the software.

PWAs and websites are distributed by third-parties. They are websites, not curated by Apple, that load in your browser. It's only after you use your browser's "PWA" function (something everyone should have) that we change into this "WebView" scenario. It's arbitary, and not at all the same as Apple rendering Apple Music or Settings using WebKit.

> how a PWA runtime environment differs in principle from the regular iOS app runtime environment

A PWA is packaged by the user. If Apple's "solution" is forcing all apps to display PWAs in a Safari WebView, then yes, the DMA will target it as a core service. I don't see why the EU would roll over when they made specific carveouts for browser control in the DMA.
