You sound like a candidate for asylum? Despite the administration policy, asylum law is still on the books. Might be good to get an application in and cross your fingers for a subs…

I don’t know about being more tired than the model, but when I’ve had a particularly productive session, I feel more tired (brain fog) than during a coding session. Probably becaus…

I think we need an official HN response. This is a legitimate video game, which happens to be satire. If we as a community cannot handle this, I don't know if I want to be a part o…

Is MapLibre GL a cheaper (free?) open source alternative? Cool stuff btw. I’m trying to visualize weather model data myself (millions of points) at https://futureradar.net and have…

Living in a city, I must manually retract side mirrors when parking on small streets and extend them before driving. Often need to readjust the mirrors each time after extending th…

The model of the helmet for use in concussion studies is only as good as your model for the (more complex) system of human skin, skull, and brain suspended in cerebrospinal fluid.

Worth noting that the pretty HD pictures came from a laptop hooked up to a DAC converter to simulate an analog HD video camera. The true analog camera shown on the page had nowhere…

Shocked? It's called lobbying--it's been around for decades.

The employees on the stream mentioned it was one of the first landings where the feed was clear the whole time. It certainly raised my heart rate watching live as the Falcon 9 hit …

Yes, you're correct. Increase* L/D by decreasing drag.

I think the easiest explanation to a lay person involves the observation that all surfaces in a moving fluid (e.g. air) produce lift--whether a flat plate, rotating cylinder, or ex…

Where was this general agreement and skepticism about the industry in the comments for Mims' "tech bubble" article yesterday?

Or JJ Abrams. Or Christopher Nolan. Two of the most profitable and prolific directors of today. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/behind-screen/help-star-war...
