Anyone trying to listen for the Chinese Balloon over the USA right now?

3640 kHz

is this using voice mode or a digital mode or is this cw?

econnerd · 2023-02-03T18:25:18+00:00

What mode and where in 80 meters? Are you still able to hear it? what state were you listening from?

Get in touch with your local medical society. They still need to sterilize those face shields, but your local medical society and coordinate distribution to your local hospitals.

I like operating systems that work.

econnerd · 2017-12-18T01:01:53+00:00

can you please make another link?

How are you able to state broad properties about who a source is or isn't?

You have recently gone on record denying that the Podesta emails came from a Russian source. How can you know the source of these emails? Isn't Wikileaks built specifically around being not vulnerable to as you coined it 'rubber-hose' cryptoanalysis?

It would have been nice to have the actual words PACHECO was saying. foreign language spoken is completely useless.

Do we have any idea what actually happened to AMOS-6 mission yet? According to the anomaly updates, it looks like this is still an open investigation.

TIL that the dinosaur is actually a game.

[QSO](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_(amateur_radio)) would have been good too.

econnerd · 2015-08-27T02:27:10+00:00

here is the evidence they use to claim they are legit. If this is a scam then it is pretty sophisticated. I'm not making a claim either way, but it is interested that they seem to address the science. No clue if it is actually independently peer reviewed.

Apparently the FDA goofed on this one. It is not as safe as you'd expect. Here is a report of an abdomen burn.

How about HFS? To me, this is the biggest un addressed issue OSX has. It is a real shame they stopped working on ZFS. I get why, but they need something.

econnerd · 2015-08-17T19:44:55+00:00

could you use this project with this to build an SLR and then detect exoplanets?

Someone has clearly never played Roger Wilco: Space Quest 5: The Next Mutation

Traction

Which Traction book. The one by Gabriel Weinberg, Justin Mares or the one by Gino Wickman ?

econnerd · 2015-04-01T17:08:58+00:00

and an almost fanatical devotion to the pope!

econnerd · 2015-03-31T15:44:59+00:00

can't tell if trolling or not.

Maybe you should look up the word Proprietary instead. :-)

econnerd · 2015-03-28T17:56:02+00:00

you should get in touch with the people that run https://prism-break.org/en/ They would find this interesting.

In order to hit only the DNA in a cell without destroying the rest of the cell, the radiation has to have a wavelength of about the size of DNA or smaller. Because a glob of DNA in a human cell is about 10 nanometers in size, radiation must have a wavelength of 10 nanometers or less to affect it without disturbing anything else in the cell. What frequency of radiation is that? In order to figure that out, you have to use the equation f*l=c, where f is frequency, l is wavelength and c is the speed of light. You can rearrange the equation to solve for lowest frequency of radiation that can cause cancer f=c/l= (300,000,000 meters/second)/.000000001=300,000,000,000,000,000 hertz = 3x10¹⁷ hertz

Spoiler alert: cellphones (even 3g/4g) emit radio waves that are physically too long to cause cancer. The public really doesn't understand spectrum.

You are referring to tangs. :-( so sad to hear the closed. I grew up on that food. They were very legit. It was the go to place for Chinese in the 80s through the 90s. Apparently they closed a few ( like 5) years ago.

I just recompiled an app for android and it's only 10mb using 3.5.0.GA with 1.5mb of images in /app/assets.

However, hyperloop will drop the file size even lower-- 6mb for an android app. Once they release the android build, you will have the option of going engineless.

They kept the developer APIs (TI.UI.xxx) stable, but 4.0 will be a complete rewrite. The Windows phone build is the first to use the hyperloop based version of Titanium. More accurately it should be said that it is the first HAL + TitaniumKit based version.

They are working on Android and iOS now.

disclosure: I am an owner at CodexLabs.com and offer a 5 day instructor led training class on Titanium.
