Interesting that it seems like the application method is to melt the glue: > To test its adhesive strength, researchers first glued two untreated polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) pla…

There are safety regulations that require things roughly like, "to prevent harm to planes in the air and people on the ground, either control where your satellite re-enters so or m…

Cool idea. Given that it transferred ~29 mb when loading, is it safe to assume that the actual page is doing some of the processing? Is the front-end just doing the HNSW or is it d…

What kind of constraints can you add? Could I put a unique constraint on property `id` of all nodes with label X? Could I put a constraint that edges of kind A must always go from …

I couldn't compare it to other OSINT sources for satellites, but it was pretty good for looking stuff up when I wanted to.

Seems like a source that one should not generally take seriously (Tipranks) being syndicated by a source associated with an important name (Nasdaq) as part of a larger wave of arti…

Links between satellites closing range near 2x orbital speed have two problems: - bigger doppler - the lifetime of the link is much shorter

The "routing in the mesh" slide? Definitely given where the satellites are in that picture some of the links would have to be cross-plane, it's just the whole thing looked so messy…

My understanding of the state of the art of inter-satellite optical links is that they have only been used between satellites that are basically in the same orbital plane and in mo…

the most amazing, most wirth's law project

My biggest beef with JSX is that what I might call the "most natural way" and certainly the "most concise way" of writing certain somewhat-complex structures in JSX often ends up b…

I'm going to read that gist ( https://gist.github.com/joepie91/bca2fda868c1e8b2c2caf76af7d... ), but what do you dislike or hate about ES modules? From my own experience, they are …

Very nice looking diagrams for the amount of effort required to make them as a client of the library. I love that it uses exactly 1 WebComponent. I love / am vaguely confused that …

The focus on "rational" value maximization on individual bets is doubly blind: - First, you and I might have different utility functions which are based on valuing outcomes differe…

I appreciate this insight. A lot of the EA stuff really feels like Rationalists treading into philosophical problems where theologians and philosophers have been working for like, …

shrug one arm of alphabet pushes through changes to Chrome without standards consensus, another arm of alphabet makes a poor bet on it.

hmm. doesn't stuff like this happen every time that chrome implements some interface but other browser vendors don't get on board with that specific version? doesn't this happen...…

> I [...] think it's more likely that some part of the Web Components tech stack will be removed from Chrome, Safari, and Firefox in the next 20 years, consequently breaking apps b…

Quick question to others who read parts of the introduction: does the writing style smell sort of LLM-ish to you?

Yeah, the author has committed to a stance without explaining why or how, beyond kind of provocatively suggesting that it's the only stance intellectually consistent with ruling ou…

I would say that it's unclear; that announcement appears to apply only to the Keisan Casio user forum. A machine translation follows: > The bulletin board will be abolished on Sept…

Interesting. What personal experiences or survey data are you drawing on for these conclusions? All of what you say sounds like solid, believable inferences but I doubt most people…

I usually think of an at-work "politician" as somehow taking advantage of relationships or social forces. What you describe sounds more to me like the ""10X engineer"" (with extra …

I think the point is it's a technical structure that supports a very large organization's unified datastore, despite the fact that ownership of the structure of that datastore is d…

> why not use that one? Taking any of the more accurate measurements of body composition requires effort, unlike BMI. It's easy and lazy and not yet acknowledged as an ineffective …
