Viewing profile — whiw

I've read the docs but I haven't tried it yet. I like the idea of storing n-dimensional data in an n-dimensional table, and I like the separation between the data ('cube') and the …

If we had a display with n (n>3) pixel colours, say (red, green, cyan, blue) for example, we could display more of the colour space. Shopping list: 4 colour channel display, 4 chan…

I'd be concerned about clay heave (where clay shrinks/expands depending on moisture content, which likely varies over the year). If the posts at each end of a panel move out of pla…

I meant lead carbonate, not lead oxide.

I am not a chemist, so take this with a pinch of salt: wouldn't lead chromate + sodium bicarbonate make lead carbonate, a white precipitate? Sodium bicarbonate is likely in your ki…

Presumably from tidal forces, from the differential of the gravity field in the presence of nearby massive objects (like the sun, or jupiter).

That seems a somewhat callous disregard for the fish, blinded and swimming around with itchy eyes from burned out retina.

If the laser is powerfull enough to kill sea-lice then how does it avoid blinding the fish or giving them retina burn?

> Printf isn't re-entrant, and they are calling it from multiple threads. This! Simple schedulers generally only allow system calls (such as printf) from the main thread. If you re…

The transformer secondary was maxing out at 4A, 36V. The primary current will be much lower, probably about (40V/240V)*4A, ie about 0.67A.

Paisley pattern. Oh, somebody beat me to it.

This looks useful, I wish I'd found it a month ago. One suggestion: could we have a more printer-friendly version (ie, without large patches of colour and without large patches of …

I imagine that it would be more difficult to gain entry to an upper floor (at the top of a narrow staircase so single-file attackers) and a sturdy door with a couple of guards outs…

> Galactic spectra, which JWST started to send back in earnest at the end of last year, are useful for two reasons. > First, they let astronomers nail down the galaxy’s age. The in…

> (I came up with this one): use a little firewall rule that prevents any IDN from resolving. That's a one line UDP rule and it stops cold dead any IDN homograph attack. Basically …

If you are a light user (in the UK) then 1p Mobile is excellent value. I've no links with them (apart from being a happy customer). They use the EE network, so coverage is good. Co…

The magnetic drill bit rack might cause the swarf to cling to the drill bits. I use plastic picture/poster hanging grips to cover saw blades, and lengths of 4" plastic waste pipe t…

Presumably the grocer or end user will end up with a pile of rind containing the embedded tagging chips. Fraudsters could simply gather/buy the waste rind plus trackers to embed th…

18:16 is 1.125:1, but 4:3 is 1.33:1

I had considered it briefly. Unless it is for a tiny number of residents (2?) then I think that the CQC will want to come and do inspections. It would be necessary to assume that t…

> Faraday cages are non-directional. Per-se, yes, agreed, but I was wondering whether the transmitter and receiver antenna couple into the surrounding screen differently. The degre…

If the other emitter/sensor pairs are uncorrelated with our own, and if we integrate over enough transmit/receive cycles, then the other pairs will contribute approximately equally…
