I thought it would be heat pump related

I can imagine a setup where multiple series of slower cooler water converging into a faster warmer stream, and the water will extract an equal amount of heat away from all the chips whether upstream or downstream.

Wouldn’t it be kidnapped easily if it doesn’t use wires or GPS?

Thanks to this I just learned about alluvium, eluvium, illuvium, and colluvium.

I think the appeal is much higher than we think. Apple tried to do the same thing with on-device child porn image recognition. The company that markets itself as the privacy advocate.

I suppose by XOR the payload the image size will multiply many times because no compression, whether lossy or lossless, will be possible.

Tsunamis are waves the same way a step function is the sum of a series of waves.

How about the UN censuring Iran for not complying with the agreement? Was this a manufactured consensus? I don't see anyone mentioning IAEA's decision here.

If the isolated grids all each synced to a source of truth first (GPS?), would it be possible for them to immediately connect afterwards?

I was just reading how fishing industry’s longlines have caught many dolphins and other bycatches. It would be great to be able to give them warnings, or even better, to ask them to keep other big animals away from the longlines.

Humm the next logical step would be to pressurize the rocket before igniting it. Or maybe to add some water in the bottle to increase the propelled mass. They just need a way to ignite the alcohol fume from the top……

Considering that it's called a world championship, someone should study the sport in-depth! Are the players allowed to swing the chestnut in a circle like a sling? Can they use carbon fiber strings, or maybe some sort of elastic string to build up more energy? Or can the player use a heavy string so it can crack like a whip? Fancy arm/wrist/fingers movements to accelerate the chestnut in the last moment? What's the optimum strike angle to crack a chestnut along its natural cleavages? This could be so exciting!

Anyone worth their education would not be paying down their 0% student loan right now. The article didn’t take into account of the high interest rates everywhere else. The money could be better used to pay down other debts or be put in treasury bills.

Does this need very accurate DAC to cover the entire color spectrum? Maybe even fine-tuning on each pixel?

“What’s a computer?” Should count as one too. But back then we just scoffed at the idea that an iPad can replace a computer. Now somehow we are offended or even terrified by the same absurdity that an iPad can replace a real musical instrument.

Something like a powered paraglider comes to mind. It has the additional benefit of being reusable.

Are we at a point where a computer can administer a Turing test better than a human?

“Degrading” sounds very intuitive to me. Can the frequency of the light waves simply slow down over a very long distance/time? Or maybe the speed of light simply slows down over an unimaginably long distance? We don’t have any model to describe such behavior, but everyday objects around us all slow down one way or another, what makes light so different?

Makes me wonder who supplies the stainless steel used for the starships and cybertrucks. US steel might just turned out to be prescient.

Wow it’s amazing that we could somehow time the orbit period.

I also think as heavier electric cars become more ubiquitous, they will impose a threat on structures like multi level garages that weren’t designed to take this amount of weight.

When the governments see that their investments or subsidies could not break the monopoly of TSMC, I wonder if they’ll change their geopolitical strategy. Instead of protecting Taiwan for silicon supply stability, they’ll encourage an all out war between Taiwan and China. By destroying the head of the monopoly, the fabs in their countries can compete against the market again.

How come when the results are the same you have to go to 1 and flip twice again? Can you just toss another one and use the last two results?

At this point we are definitely treating SpaceX as the US space agency and not a private business. People were outraged when Musk was considering whether to continue supporting Ukraine with StarLink. Imagine if he refused to do the same when China cuts the cables to Taiwan, someone will probably try to charge him with treason, only to realize that a private business has no obligation to do so.

How does LastPass implement their security challenge, where they rate your passwords and compare them to known mass password leak incidents? Does that require an upload of plaintext passwords to the server?

It also makes citizens more aware of the cost of war. Had conscription use up so much time of a citizen’s prime years, I think it would be more popular.

I thought it is already designed to be at L2? But because of diffraction it still cannot stay perfectly in the darkness. It also requires propellant to stay at L2, so it’s actually only designed to be operational for 5-10 years. It’s kinda sad to see some gadgets going out faster than it takes to build it.

What’s stopping China from using your data as a bargaining chip to trade for some data they want from, say, CIA?
