I have a set of 1980’s Soviet maps of the state of Colorado, and they are oddly accurate for the railroads.

Conversely, when my parents visited Moscow in 1975, many locals offered to trade goods to get their Finnish tourist map of Moscow; since it was more detailed than the local maps they had access to.

I was at a wedding dinner held under this a decade ago, and it they warned us it might drip on the meal.

Python really sets the bar high for excellent conventions.

The Big U has it’s faults; but is still an insightful look at the weird people and organizations within any large university.

The hobby is changing, more people build modules or small shelf layouts that emphasize a particular scene or prototype behavior.

The large layouts are less often built, due mostly to the amount of maintenance needed.

Most young enthusiasts don’t show up at the traditional clubs or shows, there are quite a few nice private forums out there for younger work.

It's still used when you need accurate energy transfer. Plenty in real lighting software (Dialux, Agi32). But there are faster methods if you just want it to look good.

I worked with Ian on lighting tools, and he delighted in sharing his knowledge of lighting, software, and engineering.

Here is the book with a copy of the included source code. https://www.gully.org/uxb/Ashdown_Radiosity.zip

This is exactly it. Cash value needs to be available to pay out if it has a value. With unlimited, that is zero.

Easier would be to pick a standard monochromatic or RGB sources (no broad spectrum phosphors), and have them filter for those frequencies.

You can usually ask the utility to add a light shield. Just about every model can take one to reduce glaring sideways light.

Scientists using Webb may be able to present some surprisingly strong evidence that we are not the only life bearing planet in the galaxy.

I wonder if you can pair a normal bluetooth keyboard / mouse with the headset?

I wonder which numbers are altered to find the leaker this time.

Freezer compressors are sized for simply keeping the contents cold of their well insulated box. Trying to run an external load will likely overload it’s capacity.

Like there are no atheists in foxholes, there are no Libertarians in bankruptcy.

I’ve had an account and small mail server on Linode for almost 19 years, and it has done all I need.

* run reliably * static IP that other mail servers trust * staff who are willing to reach out to other larger mail providers if a linode ip range it is in got blocked.

If they called it a Vancouver roll, nobody could afford one.

To be fair, that had plenty of rare earth metals in it.

I think for many people, they do not understand exactly how people make money on investments, and how they are supposed to feed back into the economy. Everybody wants 100x returns like the early internet produced from communication changes. But it is actually rare event.

How many seats does this leave them in an emergency? Isn’t there only a Dragon now?

Hydrogen is a very hard gas to use. If you talk to anyone who has shipped products using it (most likely in military/space applications), the fundamental behaviors of it in materials science are very difficult. It’ll make your nice fancy metal pipes flake apart. Good luck with any sort of gaskets. Being the smallest molecule means it will escape in a moment’s notice.

This is a great feature for a leased car, or a car rented out through the manufacturer. This is not for someone who owns the car.

Car companies, like software companies, want to go to a subscription model.

No CAD formats. Too bad most are proprietary.

I encountered this, I had a cloud service that I had spun up services on with some DNS records pointing to, and then abandoned. The IP address was then used by malware, but because my DNS pointed to it, my whole domain got blacklisted.

The idea is to have a consistent way across many items, functions, lambdas, etc…

Imagine if all the national labs just designed tools like this to be built for the betterment of humanity instead of weapons. Humans are so silly.
