Depends on how you define LEO. I think the commenter was probably thinking of Very Low Earth Orbit, VLEO. First graph is a list of deorbit times: https://www.nasa.gov/smallsat-institute/sst-soa/deorbit-syst... As…
No one understands everything here. When it comes to software development, everyone I know says they're only really knowledgeable about what they work on. Most other areas, they'll have at best some passing knowledge…
Your impressions 1 and 2 can both be correct, and there still be an association between artificial sweeteners and type 2 diabetes. It has been shown for decades that this association exists, it's establishing cause, and…
No, the "Potential for reverse causality cannot be eliminated" means that instead of artificial sweeteners causing diabetes, causality can be reversed: Diabetes causes the intake of artificial sweeteners. All these…
I've seen a lot of people getting Xiaomi air purifiers. Had no idea they put DRM on the filters, and they cost more. Really glad I went with Winix years ago, cheaper filters that last longer, and no DRM. I don't get why…
AMD consumer cards do compute, but do not have a developed or well supported ecosystem (ROCm is a mess). Misguided segmentation or a high level architecture problem however, it is not. A specialized product will perform…
AMD's compute oriented cards used to come with displayport output, but I haven't seen one of those in a long time. These cards are definitely GPUs in that they can handle graphical workloads, but I don't think anyone is…
My choice as well. I like the colors my camera puts out mostly, so I only really need to make a few adjustments here and there. DarkTable doesn't even conform the RAW to the preview JPEG, so I end up wasting a bunch of…
Yes, before editing. All the other RAW editors I've seen, including the other FOSS editor RawTherapee, will automatically adjust the sliders to match the embedded preview JPEG. DarkTable doesn't do this, all my RAWs…
I think they'd agree with that example. If we take their quote and invert it: > apparent politeness of the language is inversely proportional to the potential violence of the culture => apparent politeness of language…
The rabbit hole of knife sharpening goes incredibly deep. But if you're just looking to cut food in your own kitchen, the vast majority of it is overkill. Professionals seem to make a bit deal out of knives, but many…
I'd be happy if there were a law that every product's package or advertising must prominently display the highest level parent company. I think it would align with your suggestion of banning white labels and DBA. I…
The fingerprint scanner is just a scanner, it doesn't handle authorization, that's what the security chip does. The scanner has two ways of communicating with the security chip. It can authenticate itself with the chip,…
When Apple introduced a fingerprint unlock in the home button, it wanted to keep the fingerprint scans secure. The security chip that stores the fingerprint scans needs to verify that the home button's fingerprint…
Depends on the company. A small one where everyone knows everyone else, it actually seems kinda normal. The way large companies do it is just jarring. When my coworkers find out it's my birthday, it's because a random…
Low quality article. The only takeaway is that NSS does not result in long term weight loss by itself. That's it. NSS does not spike insulin response in humans. Stop reading studies involving rats when the same studies…
Yes, there exist many devices that support multiple charging rates. My phone allows the selection of 3 different wired charging speeds, as well as two different wireless charging speeds, selected in software.…
Samsung's foundries have struggled for the past few years to achieve their targets, whereas TSMC has continued improving at their projected rates. TSMC's process is now significantly ahead of Samsung's, such that the…
