Newer codecs has generally introduced more ways a video can be encoded, so that the encoder need to work much harder to encode a video, so that it actually achieve the gains that the newer codec allows much more…
In many ways the ENIAC was more like an FPGA than a computer. It was programmed with patch cables connecting the different computational units as well as switches, and had no CPU as such. The cables had to be physically…
You would need a frame rate higher than the Nyquist frequency of highest harmonic you want to capture. Since the fundamental frequency of the lowest pitch sting is 83.4 Hz, and you want to capture up to the fifth…
Without having smelled croton oil myself, canned brisling (which is what it is, even if it was sold as sardines) has a quite strong smell and taste. I can easily imagine that it could mask the pungent smell of the…
Only if you actually has a system complex enough to require it. A lot of systems that use kubernetes are not complex enough to require it, but use it anyway. In that case kubernetes does indeed add unnecessary…
> 1 nautical mile equals to one minute in the 90 degrees hemisphere arc The nautical mile is not an SI unit, so it is not defined by a single organization, Your definition used to be the common definition, but it seems…
Some of the heavy metals are likely from the fire retardant, and some are likely from the fire. Look at zinc vs lead for example. There is little lead in the unused sample vs the environmental samples, thus most of the…
I don't have a place to upload a screenshot just now, but it's Firefox 135 on Fedora linux 41. What happens is that the squares doesn't stay square like in your screenshot, but varies in size depending on which pieces…
This does not work in Firefox. The squares get stretched, while the area you can access stays square, so that the lower row is hidden. This makes it impossible to play.
Steel production causes around 8% of the worlds CO2 emissions, so if this is right, this project alone is causing emissions around two thirds of all of the worlds aviation.
Mike Stewart, that is the one with the most in depth knowledge about the AGC on the Curious Marc channel, is also one of the main contributors to this repo, so I guess so.
> You need carbon (coal) to make steel from iron. Carbon in form of coal is currently used for three purposes in steel production: 1) Heat up the ore to high temperatures 2) Reduce iron oxide to iron. 3) Steel is an…

Some funding happens through the university, but an increasingly large part of it is gathered through external grants, most often financed through the government. My understanding is that the author argue that when…
The data clearly supported the hole in the middle, and only reconstructions with a hole did fit the data. The data support the hole and that one side is brighter, but not much more than that. Thus a blurred image does…
It should be at least one, since I downloaded it, so the counter is broken or delayed.
And they mention this right in the press release. Quote: “The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory experiment shows that scientists can get more energy out than put in by the laser itself. This is great progress…
You saw the same with cars. Back in say 1950, most car owners would know how to do basic maintenance and repairs, both because the cars was mechanically simpler, but also less reliable. With higher reliability and more…
If you use intrinsics, you don't have to deal with the different calling conventions of each operating system, so I have used intrinsics for that reason alone, since I otherwise had to write separate versions for Linux…
This will alternate between two different tones, one representing 0 and another representing one, each bit lasting 50 ms, giving a bitrate of 20 bits/s. This is obviously rather slow, so more a fun weekend experiment…
I have sometimes put my computer in the Iceland time zone for that reason when using dual boot with Linux, since Linux prefer to run UTC on the clock, and the Iceland time zone is UTC+0 with no daylight saving time.…
That is super inefficient, and while it was an industry based on hydropower using the Birkeland-Eyde process before 1910, those factories switched to Haber-Bosch using hydrogen made with electrolysis and electricity…
That some gene is patented does in itself means nothing. At some point in the nineties the patent offices around the world started accepting patents for discovered gene sequences (i.e. sequences read out of some…
Even if I don't consent to this, it is sufficient that some of my relatives do so to expose information about me. Thus individuals should not even be allowed to give such general consent, as they cannot possible give…
There was the Rover Jet-1 from 1946. It is exibited (or at least was) at London science museum. https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co25218... "When JET 1 was launched, the gas turbine ‘jet’ engine was…
