The math is pretty intuitive; every second you're burning is another 9.8 m/s of delta V you have to spend counteracting gravity instead of slowing the craft down (minus air friction) so minimizing deceleration time cuts your fuel expenditure massively. It also means you have to carry less fuel so you weigh less and you spend less fuel for the same acceleration. It's the inverse of the rocket equation really, less mass is easier to slow down and you waste less energy (ie fuel mass) decelerating faster.

That's not at all the same.
Too late, we already kicked the ladder out and the hit isn't going to be felt until the people responsible have moved on.

Definitely not, and I am not trying to be a doomsayer here. It's just interesting. Now that I think about it more, I believe a Falcon 9 Starlink launch was once delayed due to weather conditions at the drone ship.
The State of the Art
And who would pay for the Supplementary Type Certificate for every single aircraft model out there, including many that were built by manufacturers that no longer exist? I don't think you understand how this stuff actually works.
If you're looking for something with an addressable LED matrix in a clock style form factor, the Ulanzi TC001 [0] for ~$50 is worth having a look at.

Doesn't quite have the same aesthetic but inside it's just an ESP32 (flashed via the USB-C port) and there's various mature open source firmware replacements. I use awtrix[1] on mine and it's very easy to tie in HomeAssistant for doorbell notifications and that sort of thing. I did also knock up a Pomodoro app for it.

Buying a car and paying for maintenance is not analogous. You buy the car - it works. Paying for maintenance is just meant to keep it working for longer. You could buy a car, not pay for maintenance and drive it until it breaks. That's very different than buying something that is completely non-functional without the subscription.

Also, aside from some very specific and new instances, car maintenance has not been provided solely by the manufacturer or authorized dealers.
If memory serves, Windows treats a sleep under the scheduler quantum length as a yield. It may take you off the cpu if there's something else to run but it may not. Meanwhile burning up cycles may prevent low power states.

At any rate, back to the code at hand, there are many ways to block on SIGINT without polling. But it's also hugely odd that this code does not read events from the X11 socket while it does so. This is code smell, and a poorly behaved X client.
“Enable various forms of cybercrime” seems like a stretch.

Why would it? I’m a scuba diver and I don’t pour hot water on corals.

My primary function for diving is to protect the kelp forest where I usually dive by removing sea urchins, whose population has exploded, killing the kelp. This is done in conjunction with the department of fish and wildlife.

Any scuba diver knows never to touch the coral, the ground, or anything like that. Fairly simple
> None of this is relevant because crossing states to work has been a thing since the founding of the country

Obviously not to the same degree.

The thing is if your business is multi-state, which is almost all of them, you need to comply to the lowest common denominator.

So no, states don't really have much of any autonomy. Companies these days are globalized and multi-national, let alone multi-state. That ship sailed.

Please if you have twelve distinct changes you are making twelve separate PRs.
Averaging two noisy signals increases SNR. That’s not even a thought experiment, that’s a reality. This is a technique used by probably all modern smartphone cameras to do night photos, as well as a common technique used by astrophotographers. Instead of taking one picture, you take a series of pictures and then align them and average. This improves SNR dramatically. A very long time ago we used this technique to get razor sharp, low noise pictures of the Moon at 3k x 3k resolution using… a cheap VGA internet camera: https://astronet.pl/wydarzenia/n2309/ Note that cameras at those times were barely
capable of doing videoconferencing in artificial evening light - what you saw was mostly noise. Those sensors were really, really terrible.

What you seem to be missing is the fact we’re talking here about transferring the same fixed bandwidth signal over a wider channel, not transferring a wider bandwidth signal over a wider channel.

Runway Says It's Giving Filmmakers Up to $1M If They Use AI to Make Their Movies
The answer is this is how theoretical programming languages have done it since the 1920s, borrowing from the mathematical notation of the time. As programming language theory has made more inroads into practical programming languages in the last 10-20 years, newer languages have borrowed the notation.

I'm biased, having been immersed in PL thoery for a while, but I prefer the colon notation. It works better with type inference, for example. Consider declaring a variable in two ways:

var x: int = 3;
// Now add type inference
var x = 3;

Vs

int x = 3;
// Now add type inference
var x = 3; // We've just changed the type to a keyword and that's weird.

But that's just a personal preference.
can't wait to try some tasty Europafish
Sorry for the confusing example. The bitwise one is correct since I store the binary in u64 with a different endian from the C++ version. (this happens because the C++ version is using a numpy script to do the preprocessing) My bad, I should explain it in a better way. Will update the post.
This is like a game of tag. We move on from the squash policy to a different weird requirement.

Vanilla tools make PRs have a certain overhead. Dependent branches and flipping from the terminal or IDE to the webapp and so on.

And these vanilla tools are often a team requirement. But with git(1) you can work around all that overhead.

Am I gonna stop weirdly insisting on using the version control system itself for version control instead of latching onto whatever passes for “PR”? Apparently not.
Can you not use std::condition_variable to avoid the active waiting of the signal?
Yeah really - it's half centimeter nav according to BG. Ctrl-f for centimeter:

Surveying GPS can do that with WAAS and a bunch of integration time and extra receivers, but not in real time:

So that's why I think they need to have a high resolution, close range, 3d positioning method for the final seconds.
It hardly matters anymore. Probably at least half of all Americans live in a state or city that celebrates Indigenous Peoples Day instead of Columbus Day. Italians have secured their place in society.
I think there are two poles that devs tend to cluster around.

On the luddite end, you have a lot of developers who are uncreative and vastly prefer reading code to writing it.

On the other end, you have rewriters who can ONLY read code they've written themselves.

You actually need both types to have a good team.

And when he finds out later in life that it was just propaganda, his trust in you and any warnings of a similar kind will go entirely away. Which carries a massive e risk of doing the exact opposite of what you intended (despite the advice itself, at the core, being pretty decent).

Case in point, the massive failure of D.A.R.E. drug abuse prevention programs for children and teenagers in the US. Yay propaganda.

Turns out that even when the advice itself is decent, you can easily sabotage it all in the long term by using those types of propaganda methods. All just for a short-term “win”.

My state provides lunch and breakfast for every student, regardless of income. And not just during the school year, in the summers as well.

>> Free school meals save parents $850 per year per kid and valuable time every morning.

>> Last school year, the program provided over 76.3 million breakfasts and 135.6 million lunches.

I'm okay with this, but aren't the families of the poorest students already getting SNAP benefits?

The other thing you see is the stereotypical kid going through line and getting a free lunchk, and then spending $4 on a bag of chips and a bottle of soda.

I'm also not a fan of programs like these that just pump money through evil companies like Sodexo.
A pattern where you check for and then execute any necessary migrations on initialization of a Durable Object would actually work pretty well I think - presumably you can update the code for these things without erasing the existing database?

Alternatively I could stick with git(1) which does all of this stuff out of the box. Instead of having to learn a superflouous (for the job) API.
Although the application is interesting, that's transcranial magnetic stimulation which has been around for a while. This is a new technique with different abilities. On the minus side it requires gene therapy to select the target, which is more complicated. On the plus side it can select target neurons by more than just location, and it's a lot easier to switch them on and off

That constraint can be significantly mitigated by in-space refueling. Then it just becomes a matter of what the rocket can lift into a stable orbit.

I would say it is an exercise that can help you to achieve to be in the present more often, but to me, being "in the present" means I am not distracted by anything other than what I am focused on. The moment I also think about what I am focused on, I add a "meta level observer", thus I'm not fully present: I am no longer just in my experience of the presence, I am also in my thoughts, or already in a reaction to my experience.

A body scan can serve this: by checking out everything that I feel and think, I can identify and address irritations that would potentially cause me to not be fully present later. Like a checklist. Safety? Check. Where am I in space and time? Check. Thirst, Hunger? Check. Need to go to the toilet? Check. Comfort? Check. Now, after all that and more, I can better aim to relax into being fully present, ignoring everything that would cause distractions, like thoughts. During the body scan however, I am not fully present.
If you ask some particular demographics about San Fran they'll tell you you'll get stabbed with a fentanyl coated super knife the second you step on the subway. And then they'll parade your body up and down the streets and dump you in the communal body bonfire.

Naturally, those people have never been to San Fran. They live in an ugly home in North Texas, where they commute 2 hours a day to their shitty office job and they know at least 5 people who have died in a car accident.
Decades isn't even a blink of the eye in evolutionary timescales. Coral don't just end up breeding more temperature resilient offspring, a bunch has to die first. The ones that don't die may carry on, but that might be 2% of the population. So sure, they might evolve and carry on but 98% might die at the same time.

The Gun Fetish subculture in the US have been weirdos for a very long time. I bought a gun decades ago to do some pistol shooting at the range, and doing online research was just as silly/surreal back then. Pages upon pages of jacked up dudes in Oakleys advertising all sorts of security and survivalist gear. Bald eagles and American flags everywhere. People wearing belt-fed ammo and kevlar vests. It's all marketing. You've got to sell the idea that there's danger everywhere, and your small town home is under imminent threat of invasion by some enemy.

Problem now is the algorithms. You go search for reviews for a 22 caliber pistol, and after a few searches, your various feeds are filled with militias, doomsday preppers, and all the usual right-wing tomfoolery.
I don't agree at all. This is the McNamara fallacy applied to software. You don't have to measure management efficacy. When you call for rewriting project X in technology Y, this is, at a first approximation, just saying: What reasons do we have for thinking this will make a difference? What evidence exists to support such contentions?

You don't need to be able to perfectly measure things to have evidence. Evidence might be "We used Y in this other project because <it was good in some way>, and the engineers seem to be able to make changes faster: here's our data." Or "Technology Y is better at <some feature> because it <has more mature libraries, or a better approach to concurrency, or whatever>, so we think it will benefit us."

You don't have to be able to measure everything perfectly to make better decisions.
I dont think this samantic argument is adding anything to the convo.
Your partition would have to be VERY hot for SQLite not to be able to handle it - anything up to several thousand writes per second would likely work fine.

Since this is all running on Cloudflare you could scale reads with a 1 second cache TTL somewhere, which would drop your incoming read queries to around one per second no matter how much read traffic you had.
Rings are not a mature form factor for these sensors/platforms.The $50.00 huawei band 8 is much more accurate than the $3-400 Oura ring. Check out the Quantified Scientist on YouTube[0].

While I still love the ring form factor. As tacky as it sounds, I still wear my bricked Oura rings sometimes just because I like the feel lol. However, I would never trust Oura ((or any other device outside of Apple(unfortunately)) to gauge you health off their data. While Oura is directionally correct (like most of them), it never once detected low oxygen levels in my sleep and I have some of the worst central sleep apnea my doctor has seen.

The Ulanzi TC001 might fit the ticket, it's not open source but it's an ESP32 and a bunch of addressable LEDs you can flash through the USB port.

There's an ecosystem of open source firmware for it already.
Only people who aren't good at git will think dependent branches are overhead.

The version control system itself doesn't have enough features for collaborative coding. It doesn't have all the discussions and messages exchanged between authors and reviewers. The main task here isn't version control itself but a collaborative social process. The kernel has LKML. The rest of us mostly use GitHub. By making one large PR with distinct commits you force that discussion to be intertwined together. That's why I continue to believe the best way is to make multiple smaller PRs each with one commit (or multiple commits that are squashed upon merge).
There are plenty of people with the potential to be renaissance persons, but they crushed by the need to earn money as a specialist. They can hardly quit their day job and go a renaissance excursion.
Explosive growth does not happen in a vacuum. Sometimes it's due to a pre-existing boom and bust cycle (eg lynx and hares, rabbits and wolves, etc). Sometimes it's due to the elimination of key species or ecological instability (eg hares in australia with no predators, boom of sea urchins in california, cuttlefish booming due to overfishing), or maybe it's something completely different altogether.

Given that there is no history of a pre-existing boom and bust cycle in the data, I think we can rule that out. So clearly something is happening that wasn't happening before. The question you want answered is one-dimensional and ill-posed in this situation to allow you to better understand the dynamics at work.

> MySQL is very unstable software

I've worked on 20+ projects using MySQL in consulting career. Not once stability was a concern. Banking clients would even routinely shut down radom MySQL nodes in production to ensure things continued running smoothly.

You know what's really funny? The best web browser that I've used on my M1 Mac Mini, with eight gigs of RAM And the smallest hard drive that they offered because it was the cheapest model, Microsoft Edge. Safari is neigh unusable now, and I refuse to touch anything that Mozilla makes because they are a horrible, stupid company these days. But I use Microsoft Edge on my Windows PC and I use Microsoft Edge on my Mac and I have zero issues. It's not memory hungry. It's perfect. The only thing I change is in the advanced configuration to disable the curved inner edges or rounded edges or whatever it's called.

I use this computer all day with the web browser open all day. I play media in it all day through the web browser and nothing ever really goes to swap like maybe 200 megabytes throughout a week. I could open up VS Code just fine Or Xcode just fine and do stuff in that at the same time.

While people are debating if eight gigs is bad or good or 16 gigs is bad or good, I'm just gonna sit here saving money because I don't need to buy a new device.

Disable seri and spotlight while you're at it too BTW. That helps a ton.

I think it all depends on how you define hypervolume. If you say it’s a positive real number constructed by means of integration, then you can certainly compare them across objects of various dimensions. When you say “units” I immediately think of stuff like bivectors and trivectors where you can’t reduce one to another without losing important geometric properties. But here we are talking about just the scalar part which is as “unitless” as can be.
