Not an RF engineer. But I mess with radio's for a living.

Most of the time when people try to explain antenna's they start talking resonance. Which really describes a 'good' antenna.

What an antenna does is create a alternating magnetic field with a alternating electric field 90 degress out of phase with each other. Blah blah blah quantum electrodynamics blah blah blah radiates photons.

Resonance means the antenna stores energy as resonance. That increases the electric and magnetic fields making the antenna radiate more efficiently. Some antenna's are very wide band and 'flat' and used for cough cough military cough cough and other applications.
"The world of e-paper displays is one of the most undocumented you can find: this is the unfortunate side effects of patented technologies, as there is a strong incentive to avoid disclosing useful information, with the effect of slowing down software progresses towards programming these kind of displays. "

That's a startling remark to make. I mean, like if I wanted to control OLED display waveforms, there's not exactly a massive stash of documentation about that. It is just that nobody really needs to since OLED drivers are hugely commercially successful that standard controllers drive them perfectly whereas the niche market for black white slow panels ends up with things less than satisfactory. I'd love to see evidence for claims like "slowing down software progresses towards programming these kind of displays".

Not unlikely? Can you point us to all the other times this has happened? You must know of several given your knowledge of how obviously likely this is.
That's a very muddled explanation of the concepts you're referencing.

Direct democracy (i.e. "elections everywhere for everything") is democratic.

The "tyranny of the majority" is a problem of top-down (i.e. hierarchical) organizational structures. Making these structures less democratic doesn't eliminate the tyranny, it just removes the "of the majority" part. The concept regained popularity in the past century thanks to Ayn Rand because of the libertarian idea that individual excellence is held back by the mediocracy of the masses (based on the discredited Great Man narrative of history). "Western thinkers" implies a consensus and persistence that is not there.

The antidote to tyranny is bottom-up (i.e. anarchic) organizing with consent-based decision making. There are still edge case but many of them can be resolved with axioms like the right to self-defense (e.g. a rapist might not consent to being prevented from raping you but your right not to be raped trumps their right to rape you).

It's worth keeping in mind that while a state can claim to attempt to resolve the contradiction of preventing the "tyranny of the majority" while maintaining "democratic rule" the state is inherently tyrannical (i.e. you can't consent to being its subject) and its power over its subjects is only limited by limitations it sets for itself. Absolute democracy would require abolition of the state whereas absolute tyranny would require abolition of the "democratic rule" it uses to justify itself. A state always requires a ruling class, be it a demographic majority, a majority of capital, an aristocracy or a dynasty.

In other words: yes, ideally, all humans affected by a decision should be asked to consent to that decision (which is distinct from supporting it, if you're unfamiliar with this nuance - think of it as "support or abstain").
I was trying to say that a capacitor and diode (detector) is not a complete receiver.
I don't think it's meaningful to talk about "a large proportion" with this few data points.

They're serious privacy violations because of the nature of the data that was exposed. We're also only talking about two organizations, both of which did have legitimate privacy violation incidents.

You're drawing conclusions based on statistically meaningless sample sizes.
Many countries use the comma as decimal separator, and Microsoft in its infinite wisdom thinks that data interchange formats should follow regional formatting settings (that's unbelievably stupid; I'll never understand how such an enormous error not only came to be, but was never corrected). That makes the comma unusable as column separator in those countries for exchange of numerical data.
Ask HN: Do kids benefit more from realistic or fantastical toys and books?
My wife and I are currently in the midst of a debate regarding the type of toys and books we should provide our children. She advocates for the usage of toys and books that portray a realistic representation of the world, including animals. This presumably means no anthropomorphic or cartoonish animals, only ones that mimic their real-life counterparts.

On the other hand, I believe that a balance of realistic and fantastical elements in our children's playthings can be beneficial. In my view, while it's important for children to have an accurate understanding of the world, we should also foster their creativity and imagination through exposure to made-up and imaginative elements.

Given our ongoing debate, I would be grateful if anyone could provide recommendations for resources or research studies that address this topic. I'm interested in approaches that might support either viewpoint, or suggest an entirely different perspective.

Thanks!

I suppose this could muddy the waters over WFH productivity. Assuming its incorrect that in-person workplace is more productive (personally believe WFH same or better, but its still up for debate and may depend on a few things), then, an employer might be foolish to pay extra to get people there in person... but.. once they do, the higher salaries might attract more highly skilled applicants, who are.. more productive! So then by paying a premium you get more productive people, but that's because they are inherently more productive not 'cos they're physically there, but.. it looks like its because they're physically there, this reinforcing a myth that being in the office is more productive.

A DVD-sized reencode of a 4K movie will be shit quality. Even for 1080p you really want to allow for > 10 GiB depending on the movie content and length.

4K Blu-Rays are also usually already at least H.264 so it really is limited how much smaller you can make them without sacrificing image quality.

Older 1080p Blu-Rays really do use stone-age codecs though and can easily be compressed to a fraction of the disk size without visible loss.

It has always been an option, however it's easy to miss it's happening when it happens to a really small subset of genes you are importing into an excel sheet. Most of the time people just don't pay attention, and excel does whatever is useful for most people (i.e. not biologists).

Worked in bioinformatics in the past, and I think this is just an issue with people not knowing it did happen. You have many new biologists joining the field every day, people are going to mess up if the standard excel option is conversion.

Weirdly I think Baltimore is thriving. It just really doesn't advertise itself.

Hopkins is huge.
Because the Port of Baltimore is a very major port, and not allowing ships under it really isn't an option.

Vertical clearance for ship traffic might have been the reason this kind of bridge was built in the first place. Otherwise, something lower and more causeway-like might have been sufficient.

Honestly the best part of this paper is they've put together a large new set of time series for benchmarking.
If bridges and container ships indeed do not go together (something I don't necessarily agree with), you probably want to take away the public bridge and continue to let ships go by. This is economically speaking for the area. Car traffic is just not very efficient in the comparison between the two.

Edit: of course there are a ton of other solutions here as well. I am disagreeing with the parent that it is the cars which should get to stay and the container ships which have to move.

It's no surprise that the entire bridge collapses after a pylon collapses. What surprises me is that the pylon collapses. I'd expect those to be extremely solid, with tons of padding. But with ships getting bigger and bigger, I guess there's a limit to what you can account for.
It's not especially common, but the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Tampa Bay is a famous example. Similar circumstances - it collapsed after being hit by a ship.

I mean, Henry certainly _claimed_ that it was an annulment, but it was self-granted, on a basis seemingly made up for the occasion, so realistically considering it to be an annulment was a _bit_ of a stretch.

(Not that this was exactly unprecedented; the whole thing kind of came to a head because the Pope wouldn't grant a spurious annulment to cover a divorce to Henry, but various Popes had certainly granted dodgy annulments to various monarchs _before_.)
Correct, except that H.264 has multiple profiles so if you don't need to target cheap player hardware you can still egdge a bit more compression out of them without a noticeable sacrifice in quality. But yeah, the situation isn't nearly as ridiculous as it was with older 1080p Blu-Rays.

> I said that I would expect someone working in the sector to believe in the sector. I did not say AT ALL that someone working in the sector is surely wrong.

No, you said that you expect someone saying that solar and wind is not that bad to be working IN SOLAR AND WIND and not in nuclear.

You said that my view on solar and wind is biased because I work on solar and wind. I don't, I work on the full energy sector, I don't prefer renewables to nuclear.

> Of course people in renewables tend to say that nuclear doesn't work, and people in nuclear tend to say that renewables don't work. That's how it works. Asking who is saying what and consider they may have a bias seems reasonable to me.

That's exactly my point: you ASSUMED that if I say renewable is good, then I HAVE TO be in renewable.

Being careful is fine, you could have asked precision about my domain. But you did not, it was just obvious in your mind: if I'm saying the renewables are not bad, then there is no way I'm intellectually honest and unbiased.

> I have been following him for years, and that is not AT ALL what I understood.

I have worked on projects where we saw DIRECT AFFIRMATIONS from Jancovici that were, for real, just BS. Not because we were interpreting them badly or something like that, it was very clear cut, such as "we've just done the math for your exact project and we guarantee you you will not get it for less than X euros" and few months later, we got it for 0.001 X euros. You may understand superficially what Jancovici says. But obviously, I've seen, from first hand, the reality, and it will be very difficult for you to convince me that what I've experienced was a dream. Each time he is saying "nuclear is a better fit", you need to be very prudent, he is always comparing the very very worst case scenario for renewables with the unrealistically ideal case for nuclear.

> (because if you have enough nuclear energy, then you don't need renewables, but when you have renewables, you need a solution for the times where they don't produce enough)

That only is stupid. You cannot place "just nuclear", the way they work is just not suited for flexible grid, which is essential if we want to reduce emissions. You can somehow follow the demand, but you will spend order of magnitude more money than if you use renewables for exactly the same result, and you will never reach the needed reduction in time.

You were saying that you reacted to "silver bullet, if you have enough renewables then you don't need nuclear". And there, you are doing exactly the same thing by saying that "if you have enough nuclear, then you don't need renewables". Let be clear: I know you prefer a mixed solution. The problem is that you believe that if you have enough nuclear, then you don't need renewables, which is just not correct.
Some other bridges have barriers around, but not connecting to the pylons.

Somewhat agree. I do still re-encode most Blu-Rays to get rid of the black bars that are encoded in the video stream because apparently mandating players support arbitrary video aspect ratios would make too much sense.

React, especially React Native.

There are lots of docs, and in most cases the quality at some point was good, but they're often out of date, and old versions hang around for a long time. Real world projects often use wildly different versions of React (because it's hard to keep up with the version churn) so I guess all those different doc versions are necessary.

For React Native, the docs are missing detail so you have to look at the code, and the code comments were pretty spotty and inconsistent the last time I looked.

> Surely you're not claiming that .NET's standard library is not extensive and not written in C#.

I’m claiming that MSFT seems to care really about P/Invoke and FFI performance and it was one of the leading reasons for them not to choose green threads. So there has to be something in .NET or C# or win forms or whatever that is influencing the decision.

I’m also claiming that this isn’t a concern for Java. 99.9% of the time you don’t go over FFI and it’s what lead the OpenJdk team to choose virtual threads.
