Fun fact: nowadays music is still distributed mostly in the 44.1 kHz sample rate, and this odd rate derives from how much it was comfortable to store on a PAL/NTSC video tape using devices similar to Technics SV-P100 (when video tapes were the only viable way to store full-quality digital audio). So this number is ultimately derived from line count and frame (field) rate of analog TV standards.
If we look at a (or the only?) popular multi-gear EV which is Porsche Taycan, it uses the upper gear for almost anything except for sport-mode launches (i.e. a very narrow use case).
I still use MD5 as a 128-bit checksum algorithm that is fast and universally supported and compatible everywhere. In this role it's still useful, just don't expect it to be a cryptographic hash anymore.
This is only about the master password. I assume it won't have any stupid requirements like "include at least one digit", and will instead assess the amount of entropy, allowing passphrases to be used.
If it's just a "planning my first startup" stage and not an existing enterprise of some non-zero size, I'd suggest starting from the book "The Lean Startup" by Eric Ries and other general "startup mentality" information sources. For a tech-minded CTO, it's especially important to have that correct "startup mentality" to avoid big mistakes from the start.
Looks similar to piezo "clickers" that are supposed to help against mosquito bites. But is the working principle based on temporarily damaging nerve endings? If so, is there a potential for a long-term negative effect with active use?
As someone who only cares about v4, I periodically wonder why don't I just use fully random 128-bit identifiers instead (without the version information).
Here in Ukraine trying to estimate enemy's drone and missile production capacities by serial numbers of their parts is quite a mundane task these days.
Fun fact: vinyl has constant angular velocity, not constant linear velocity. It means that sound fidelity gets progressively worse while going from outer tracks to inner tracks.
For me personally, the main argument against Telegram is that its development and operations team is physically located in Russia. This means that they can very easily be bribed and/or intimidated into any type of collaboration with their state.
Entropy. Both in information and in thermodynamics, and how brilliantly they are connected. The audiobook "The Big Picture" by Sean Carroll has helped a lot.
This is the first case I know of. I never get such issues here in central Ukraine. This is because occupied regions always present themselves as Russia, not Ukraine. If something says that it is Ukraine, it's a sure sign that it is NOT occupied by Rissua.
Sad to see such an imperfect monitor mount type on a webcam that tries to be better. For better eye contact, lens should be as low as possible to be as closer to where you are looking as possible. This one doesn't seem to even try.
As far as I understand, helium is a non-renewable fossil resource. So a sustainable airship design should be using hydrogen instead. The challenge is to make it safe.
