Regen braking is noticeably less powerful when your battery is nearly full, and you have to manually use your friction brakes more. Sounds like it might be a safety issue, but in any scenario where you use regen brakes you have more than enough time to switch to physical brakes if you want to.
Great to see reduced cumulative layout shift in image tags! Next.js seems to be the only modern JS framework with accessibility by default. Still wishing i18n would work with `next export`, though.
My guess would be the exact opposite: current chip shortage has lead to billions of USD more put into new fabs and R&D. I think/hope the market will overreact to this shortage, and I'm excited to see what we will be able to do with all those new faster ultra-low cost microcontrollers in 5-10 years.
Rowhammer does not really happen in real life scenarios, because if you access the same block of memory multiple times it usually gets cached in L1, L2 or L3 cache. You really have to try to induce such a magnetic field in RAM. The things you're referring to are probably from other sources of random bit flips, such as cosmic radiation.
I'm a bachelor student, but I trained for the international informatics olympiad in high school. These days, most of the programming I do is in web development where I do not need any of the relatively advanced algorithms I know. I do not think competitive programming has necessarily improved my web development skills, only that I write code faster. However, I do feel prepared in the sense that I would definitely recognise situations where dynamic programming/segment trees/sqrt decomposition would be of help. I thoroughly enjoyed getting the absolute most out of your CPU with C++. Sometimes I miss the obscure pointer arithmetic, bit twiddling with Fenwick trees, thinking of ways such that I can divide by const's instead of int's because the compiler can optimize those further. It's a special kind of feeling to solve problems by combining clever algorithms and pushing the hardware to what it is physically capable of.
50 volt @ 5 amps? Better make sure your ports don't have any lint inside. And don't forget your special EPR certified 240W USB-C cable, of course. The U in USB stands for "universal", but it feels like USB is trying to target a very niche market with this.
Tracking deforestation, melting of glaciers, basically anything geographic. If you're looking for things people profit from, you're right that some trading firms use satellite images to count cars in parking lots of e.g. Walmart to predict earnings reports. Similar things can be done on oil refineries for example (some satellites can even look /through/ oil tanks to look at oil levels by looking at specific wavelengths).
You need a relatively large amount of storage space for plotting, more than most RAM disks. It has proven to be more cost effective to consume SSD's than to use slower HDD's or a RAM disk.
Yes. However, if you and the rest of the world want to at the same time, you cannot. This is a known risk, normal banks suffer from the same problem. However, normal banks are strictly regulated, and will receive a bailout to make sure your life savings do not vanish in thin air. Tether does not have such guarantees, so you will have to solely trust Tether foundation to prioritise your money over their profit.
planet.com can get you a ~12 images per day [1] for a reasonable price. If cost really isn't an issue, I'm confident you could strike a deal with planet.com to place their next few new satellites into the specific orbit you want to up the frequency even more.
(AirPods Pro | AirPods Max) + (Mac | iPad | iPhone) or Apple TV + HDMI. I don't think the Apple Watch + AirPods are supported unfortunately, might be due to battery/performance reasons.
Was silent for me on macOS Big Sur Safari as well, except for the fact that it opened Apple Music without any warning. The author might want to remove the iTunes check, not sure how much entropy it adds anyways given that it is automatically installed on all Macs.
Does this fall within Apple's policy of fair use? Would be great if there were an officially supported (paid) API for this, the technology and potential use cases are great. I'm afraid hooking something like this up to my Apple ID will get me banned somehow.
I wonder if brain structures of children are getting wired differently to better accommodate for multitasking in the modern Information Age. I would imagine that if you multitask all day, your brain would adapt to do this context switching more effortlessly, probably at the cost of something else that the brain judges as less important. Not saying that that's a bad thing, I'm just curious.
That's part of SQLite. It has been optimised to reduce disk reads, because those can be slow on spinning hard drives. Coincidentally, this translates well into an optimised algorithm that minimises the amount of HTTP range requests to make.
I'm curious, in what manner could this method speed up Next.js builds? That's all done locally, which negates the effect of HTTP range requests, right?
What kind of proteins are important when you're looking at the immune system? Is there a protein that can attach to thyroid gland cells and signals to the body that it isn't a threat? Or is there some sort of memory of the immune system with non-threat cells, that mRNA could overwrite? I'm not a biologist, I'd love to read more about these specific inner workings without dissecting a whole undergraduate biology book.
Are there any online resources where I could learn more about what mRNA treatments could theoretically cure? Take Hashimoto's disease for example, a disease where your thyroid gland slowly gets destroyed by your immune system. If I understand correctly, mRNA could stop your thyroid gland from getting destroyed in the first place, but it cannot regenerate the thyroid gland if it has already been destroyed. Is that correct?
“Programming languages are old, therefore they will never take advantage of our hardware.”
Have you looked at how compilers have changed the past 30 years? How they take advantage of SIMD? AVX? The LLVM-revolution? It’s delusional to think compilers will never be smart enough to vectorise object-oriented code, which is the main gripe of this article.
I think you misunderstood how a photo finish camera works. Please try re-watching the explanation video. The photo isn't a snapshot of the race at a specific time, the photo shows an entire interval where the top cyclers passed the finish line. It's like having long shutter time and a narrow slit and slowly moving the camera such that you get the view of the slit projected along the entire camera sensor.
Really all you need for a rudimentary dark mode that automatically changes depending on your system preferences. Let's stop pretending this would take HN more than 30 minutes of dev time. Definitely would help improve accessibility.
There's two parts to Chia: plotting and farming. Plotting is a one-time cost of ~5-10 hours for a SSD, and after that you can start farming and you continuously earn Chia by proving your drive still contains the random data that got initialised during plotting. Erasing the drive would mean you have to start over and you lose ~10hrs of income.
You're right, the camera was in front of the actual finish line.
My point is that Wout was ahead for the /entire/ duration where the front wheel intersected the camera line. The wheel's diameter is bigger than 20cm, so the moment when Wout passed the actual finish line is included in this interval. Therefore, Wout was ahead when the winner passed the actual finish line. QED.
