saboot

I use wired headphones, and I'll get an electric discharge from my inner ear and through my earbuds when I get up from my chair.

It's not painful, but feels like pop rocks in my ear canal.

Reminds me of the days when you could look up public camera feeds with a specific string in a google search. Some of the camera pages had controls! Spent a day with friends in a college dorm scrolling through them.

And below that, FORTRAN :)

It goes far beyond smells, in ways I find deeply unsettling

We can induce religious experience, see "The God Helmet"

Symplectic integrators are the approach I used for some old galaxy simulations. Page 5 on the attached paper was my main reference, eq 22 https://arxiv.org/pdf/cond-mat/0110585 I believe this is used in several academic codes for long term N-body calculations.

This looks really cool. An application I would use this for is to generate code for FPGAs, as finite state machines are very common.

This is an example, https://terostechnology.github.io/terosHDLdoc/docs/guides/st...

But it only outputs an SVG, and there are no tools (AFAIK) that go from diagram to code, which should easy to setup.

So I'd consider extending this to both generate code and read in code and make these nice interactive diagrams.

ctrl+f "national lab" = 0 results

Hello? We have 17(!) federally funded national labs, full of scientists doing the work this article waxes nostalgic about. Through the Laboratory Directed Research and Development (LDRD) program they afford employee scientists the ability to pursue breakthrough research. However, they are facing major reductions in funding now due to the recent CR and the upcoming congressional budget!

This has piqued my interest, which vendors are using an open source stack?

The article is from January 13 .. why post it now?

I recently made the switch to linux full time as well. Even small things, like my computer taking three seconds from clicking Shutdown to turning off, is such a relief compared to Win11.

That's very cool! Here's another cool application for nuclear arms control, https://www.nature.com/articles/nature13457

attrs looks interesting, can it be used in workflows for processing GBs of data? I don't see any Cython compatibility or other Python to compiled code options. I typically just get by with numpy recarrays, but I'm old fashioned and looking for something more modern.

Hurry up, not much time left for that either.

It's not even years of precedent, they contradicted themselves on this decision today in their separate ruling on allowing public sleeping bans. Roberts said "Why would you think that these nine people are the best people to judge and weigh those policy judgements?". SCOTUS follows tradition when it suits their lobbied interests, and disregards tradition if it contradicts them.

Can this be used to help design math functions for FPGA designs, using VHDL or Verilog?

Thank you for this comment. I also had a prolactinoma, but haven't been disciplined about taking my cabergoline .. been stuck in a rut as well. Now I'm motivated to get this sorted with my doctor finally.

I have similar thoughts in my mind while reading this. In that vein, I'd be interested to know what the 'worst case' prediction for sea level rise is, including the effects listed in the article on the Thwaites glacier; a 1 foot sea level rise in X years?

More C stuff, I really enjoy learning these fundamentals using C. I did your game physics course in C and really enjoyed it. I'll be taking this course to learn more about 3D graphics and C together.

Yep, I develop several applications that use CUDA. I see AMD/Radeon powered computers for sale and want to buy one, but I am not going to risk not being able to run those applications or having to rewrite them.

If they want me as a customer, and they have not created a viable alternative to CUDA, they need to pursue this.

Very nice. I'll list a feature I've always wanted but haven't seen on timezone converters.

A map of timezones, which will either highlight the location entered, or allow you to select the timezone.

Saves a few keystrokes.

> or simply don't care

Bingo

Would you be comfortable with testing being done near where you live?

Why not? And where would you propose instead?

>> Most persons with disabilities the author pretended to have would have been able to navigate the situations the author encountered

How do you know this?

Also, I downvoted your comment because 'virtue signalling' is non-sense phrase.

Do any of these books have a purchase list of components to purchase?

I just worked through making a 2D physics engine via Gustavo Pezzi's course on pikuma.com

Seeing shapes collide, bounce, roll, and understand exactly what was happening in the code I wrote was a huge confidence booster.

That wasn't possible, having Lieberman's vote was required, and he said no to anything like that

That is quite interesting .. so I should be able to run my cuda accelerated programs on AMD and Intel devices then, correct?

For anyone interested in making games at a lower level, Gustavo Pezzi's course on pikuma.com is an excellent resource. Just finished the one on game physics and I learned a ton.

Very interested to hear more, will be registering virtually!
