Re:Modelica on Monday December 16, 2024 @12:58PM (#42433474)
I finished university 4 years ago but just now I am going down the rabbit hole of bond graph modeling and studying directly from the MIT class notes of Henry M. Paynter [1] while simultaneously using Simscape at work for modeling vehicle systems. I understand that bond graphs are the underlying mechanism upon which Modelica and Simscape are built upon(?).

Can any expert in this field give me some pointers. My current belief is that understanding the theory of bond graphs will give me intuitive understanding of just about every system I work with in my field.

I find that this field is surprisingly niche, as most of my peers have never paid special attention to it, but when I found about it, it seemed to me like a magic bullet for all my problems.

So when that time comes I expect to see this mower on the frontpage again when an actual hacker does it, and then it will be much more interesting.
Re:Zero-Rupee Note on Sunday February 25, 2024 @11:21AM (#39502033)
I read the article twice but I'm having a hard time imagining how these are supposed to work. How does showing the note to the person that is trying to get bribed differ from just telling them it's wrong and that you won't do it? Usually in those situation you don't really have a choice, like when a cop stops you in the middle of the night. Is it meant to be given in a discrete way, so that the false note is discovered after the supposed bribe?

Any plans to do this in VR? I would love to try this.

No, he died because of a steering column failure, not a loss of downforce.
