Does this meet all the SAR limits for general population RF exposure? Especially the tissue near the emitter?
We're going to enter an era of fragmentation and silos like never imagined before. It'll be terribly wonderful, with everyone getting exactly what they ask for.
Wait until you see the Linux git history!

Those that passed would have still remained ahead, from their continued improvement.
"You get used to it. I… I don't even see the code. All I see is blonde, brunette, red-head."
We've gone (mostly) full circle.

No goal post moving on my part.
Not sure I understand the MS tablet example, since it seems unrelated to the sentence before it (going against it).
It's is usually a deal breaker if used for room lighting, rather than display lighting. Especially where food is involved. Try swapping you dining room lights for RGB.
There are many millions of devices connected that draw power, and increasingly so, supply power.
Or they zeroed in on something interesting, since finding interesting radioactive bits is the primary use of the device. One I saw in CA was confirmed to be a uranium deposit, by geological survey, on a random trail near some houses.
If you don't believe any of this naturally occurring phenomenon for some reason, there are several YouTube channels that check out these places, and try to find their own high activity areas/objects. There also subreddits dedicated to it,'and even a map where you can find places! ;)
For big orders, you make sure that there's something involving "actually receive what was purchased" in the contract. For little guys like us, absolutely nothing you can do, except pay a way more and buy from a reputable vendor that does these checks on their side of the sea/has big purchase deals with contracts that protect them.
Let's say the average sentence is 17.5 words, with the average word length being 4.5 characters. Not capitalizing the first word is only a 1.27% character error rate, on average. Not too bad. ;)
Not sure why this is downvoted. It's simple color theory, and the whole reason the CRI measure exists.
My general rule of thumb is that if you see you can 2x it easily, you can actually get somewhere around 10x with effort, since the presence of that easy 2x means nobody really spent any time on performance.
How are these two things related? If you don't use exceptions, you just have to implement them yourself by manually bubbling up the error, all the way up the stack, rather than using the dedicated side channel to do so.
The problem I see is there's no way to enforce the check that you actually handled/bubbled up the error. With exceptions, you just crash if you don't handle it, which is much preferred if determinism is the goal. Is there some way to use the type system to do this? Maybe incoming are UnhandledResult outgoing are some HandledResult or something like that?
Very many people have been taught that exceptions are bad and should be avoided, because google avoids them.
I feel like faster exceptions would be a better solution for this sort of thing. Leave functions returning the happy path with excepted values. Exceptional things, like missing values being handled at the level where of abstraction that actually cares to catch it:
And its strategic use through "nerd sniping".
I drove through Nevada recently and it made me angry how much flat, high sun, land there is for solar, with no real environmental impact whatsoever (probably improvement for local life from the bit of shade).
I could see this maybe working using a standardized sensor reporting system that goes into some third party/government/public analysis. Full sensor array stream, and whatever is used internally to make decisions, up for scrutiny.
99.67% of seawater can't be used for fusion. Some very poor napkin math, that's around 1.3 million cubic miles, with around 2200 cubic miles per inch of sea level, which is around 600 inches, or 50 feet drop in sea level if fully depleted (not including any sea level rise from global warming).
Is this fundamentally from poor routing from infrequent use? For example, if usage was 50%, would the routing/hops between the two somewhat converge? Or is this actually a "v6 is hosted on a separate server somewhere else" type problem?
This is a very hard problem, when working with china, in any capacity. There are whole teams dedicated to this, in larger companies. Usually, it involves IQC where you sample the devices, X-ray them, and verify things are correct. There's also neat thermal methods:

A hard rule of life is, if there are resources available, something will consume them. It's interesting that this also ended up being true for compute!
Yes, on reddit, all things are political. It's a perfect destination!
The same link shows that a video was also put on his CD in the 70's!
> Their efforts led to a 20-minute video disc in 1973.
> In 1974 Digital Recording Corporation announced ... the first device to digitize a color image, at a Chicago trade show. The response from large potential investors was rather cool.
And, there's LaserDisc, of course (although analog, unlike the digital disk in the above), which was somewhat of a flop (the ridiculous dimensions being part of the cause).
Tangentially related, BlueRay was more about just waiting for a blue led to be invented, than some new disc tech! [1]
[1] There was a really great youtube video about it, but can't find it. Se here's a bad generic recap: https://ssleec.ucsb.edu/news/nobel/professor-shuji-nakamura-...
I flag all political submissions because reddit already exists.
My digital calipers can display freedom fractions. It makes my eyes bleed.
