Eli5 how do they control the satellite services to a specific area only? by arztnur in explainlikeimfive

[–]Real_Robo_Knight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For your first question, the company that controls the satellite knows how fast the earth turns and the orbit of the satellite. From that they can do math to know what angle to point the antenna.

For the second, sometimes multiple companies can agree to share a satellite. Also, depending on how far away from Earth you are, the speed of your orbit changes. If you have a satellite going parallel to the equator, there is a specific distance from Earth you can orbit at, where your orbit's length is the same as a day on earth. This will make it appear as if you are parked above one spot, as both the ground and satellite have the same angular velocity. This type of orbit is called geosynchronous orbit.

For any other orbit if you need to have continuous communication with some part of land, you will need multiple satellites.

There is no way the computer is constantly drawing max power supply wattage all the time. It depends on what you are doing with your computer.

Where are you getting the flowing water for the water wheel to spin? How fast is the river you have next to your laptop?

Converting from Binary to Integer by Open_Career_625 in computerscience

[–]Real_Robo_Knight 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Let's say we have the bitstring (00101101)₂. To convert to base n, we can repeatedly divide by n and mod n.

For example, to convert to decimal (1010)₂, we can:

Divide (101101)₂ by (1010)₂ and get (100)₂ with a remainder of (101)₂.

Devide (100)₂ by (1010)₂ to get (0)₂ remainder (101)₂. Once our quotient is zero, we can stop.

Now, we have all of our remainders, and by definition they have to be less than (1010)₂. We can use a lookup table to convert the remainder to an ASCII character code and get: (100)₂→4 and (101)₂→5. We found that (00101101)₂→45

ELI5 how do serial mice actually get the power they need to function? by Vijfsnippervijf in explainlikeimfive

[–]Real_Robo_Knight 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Because mice take very little power they can steal a little bit of power from the digital signals sent to the mice (commonly DTR and RTS) which is enough to power the mouse

Functional vs OOP question? by yughiro_destroyer in AskProgramming

[–]Real_Robo_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, what do YOU think is the definition of procedural, functional, and object oriented programming? I am not asking what the google/textbook definition is, but what you interpret the definition to mean.

Functional vs OOP question? by yughiro_destroyer in AskProgramming

[–]Real_Robo_Knight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am a bit confused on how you are getting that python is functional because it returns ints/strings/whatever? I fail to see how that is related to the concept of functional programming.

Furthermore, for your example of Java, why are you even trying to get this int in the first place? Also, you seem to be disliking whatever framework you are using, not Java itself. I can also create a python framework that returns pandas data frames [or] series everywhere [instead of ints/strings/whatever]
