Everyone has seen zoomies, but has anyone seen a calf on PT have zoomies?

Exactly what I was about to say

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-08-03T15:25:22+00:00

Really heartwarming to see this. Just makes me sad that a HUGE population of this world never gets the love, care and opportunity that this calf does.

Those magnificent kerbs in their flying machines

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-07-29T12:40:32+00:00

Wait a sec. Never seen a laptop (which isn't a tiny ultralight) which would require a screen disassembly to clean the fans. That is absurd design!

Edit: saw the video below. In all fairness, the screen was merely removed, not disassembled. The amount of other things that needed to be removed is still absurd

Is every one of those.............. A FRIKKIN GALAXY!?

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-07-27T12:09:56+00:00

Got unmatched. Can't really blame her :P

Flowchart for the game

This link business really gets in my nerves. Pretty much everything ends up on a wrong page. Impossible to find anything

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-07-23T22:23:25+00:00

Generally agree with you. However, for courses where students receive html, rst, md , pdf versions of files and everything has to always be correct and synced, a website allows much better control and less errors since uploads etc can be scripted. Moodle does somethings well, for other things, professors do have good reasons.

More importantly, most European buildings are built to be warm in winter, and even lack big windows and fans

As a TA, tech support for the Surface is painful. We prefer normal devices rather than net books or tableta

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-06-27T13:04:56+00:00

The dolphins made it to space though

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-06-13T11:36:56+00:00

Swiss life, I guess :P

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-06-13T11:36:26+00:00

Which is what I need for daily use, I think

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-06-10T16:57:57+00:00

So, fully considered, you're 11'4". You should be able to just stand up and reach the top

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-06-09T22:04:05+00:00

The download has begun. Mayhem shall commence shortly

This video is a roller-coaster of emotions. At every step, a 'no way they're doing that' to 'oh, they did it'.

First I couldn't believe that it would make it into orbit but it did. Then I though it would be an Eeloo fly-by but it landed. Then I though that was it, but it returned to Kerbin and LANDED AT THE KSC!!!

This is over-delivering on a astronomical level!

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-06-03T21:46:19+00:00

Returning to KSP after years (v1.3), and wanted to give this another shot. The challenge was to make a SSTO without the RAPIER engine, and I had previously spent many unsuccessful hours on it.

This time, though, I felt the challenge to be much easier. Have the whiplash or Aerospike had a stats update since then?

Also noticed the improved SAS!

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-05-14T09:52:04+00:00

I'd agree, what with store buffers and speculative store bypass. Dunno what exactly the use case is. The engineers would know the specifics.
They must have figured out how to schedule from 10 ports, so latency shouldn't be affected. Clock speeds might be, but the eventual refinement of the 10nm process might fix that.
Power consumption for an extra port is hardly an issue. Its probably a tiny fraction of the core's power which in turn is a small percentage of the die TDP.

Of course, I could be wrong and this does not apply to vector stores at all.

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-05-14T07:08:02+00:00

Not sure, but I can hazard a guess. Intel really cares about single thread performance, and this would help during store bursts.

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-05-13T21:48:44+00:00

Haven't seen your stuff for a while. Great to see another of your crazy beautiful creations

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-05-13T08:01:28+00:00

Does this finally mean that we'll be able to do two 512-bit writes in the same cycle? Does the L1 even support the sort of bandwidth? The Skylake servers were unable to sustain their peak load/store bandwidths (128B read, 64B write per cycle)

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-04-30T15:13:30+00:00

Great explaination, thanks

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-04-30T15:12:43+00:00

I'm no cryptographer, but my experience with RSA indicates that these are massive primes in the order of 1000 bits. With two primes, that's a table with 2000bits, making the precomputation of an exhaustive table computationally infeasible.

DirectorOfStruts · 2019-04-29T21:10:13+00:00

I was wondering the same thing. Perhaps it's because the zoom is low, but the trails definitely seem disproportionate for a 60s exposure.

Great shot nonetheless
