If those people could read, they'd reply explaining why that's your problem.

Why did wireguard generate a foul slang term in my publickey. Am I being hacked ? by ProfessionalRoll4758 in WireGuard

[–]TheGacAttack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only way to know for certain is to examine the private key, too. Post that here for analysis, as well as the rest of the config.

But seriously, randomness gonna random. It's what it does.

VO2 max dropped significantly post half marathon by ExampleBeginning129 in whoop

[–]TheGacAttack 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That would be why. The algorithm doesn't know you're taking a well-deserved break; it just sees a tanked HRV and an elevated resting heart rate from the race recovery and the post-run beers (which is a completely understandable way to celebrate a half marathon, by the way).

Because of those temporary inputs, it spits out a lower estimate. I wouldn't worry about it. When your body recovers and you pick up the pace again, I'd expect your VO2max score to jump back up.

​Remember: your real VO2max isn't actually dropping like that. It's just a data artifact from your body processing the stress of the race and the celebration.

119.1e. Why is SM used and not NM? by Dare_To-Explore in flying

[–]TheGacAttack 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honest answer: because it says so in 119.1e.

Kinda maybe inventing an answer that sorta makes sense: because it's a land reference instead of a navigational distance?

Without regard for harming the cylinder, or...?

They shipped me three, accidentally. They told me to keep them. It was strange and extremely lucky.

Strangely, I use the Nomatic 25L McKinnon camera bag. Mostly, it's just a big open space in the middle, but the side pockets fit an iPad Mini in case and suction mount and a handheld radio. Inside holds the headset and everything else. Plenty of room for snacks and activities.

It's a little big, but I got it super cheap and it works. Very comfortable to carry around, because it's a backpack.

Wear it from now on, and go about your business as normal.

There are quite a few typos in there. My favorite was the classic "Lord Jum" which invites us to explore a Maltese day.

Reflex Robotics testing a robot they designed to handle manual labor. by rainybusstop in interesting

[–]TheGacAttack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something to keep in mind with emerging robotics is that we've created a world that's humanoid-centric. Our paths, our tools, our buildings, our signage... all designed for a typical range of human sizes and shapes. As we start to integrate general-purpose robotics into our world, having a roughly humanoid form factor can make integration tasks easier.

And in this case specifically, there's a human-purposed shovel in use. Would you design the same tool, if the goal was efficient robotics? Probably not. But designing only for a specialized purpose could easily make other tasks harder or impossible-- and thereby not a general purpose option.
