  • Whoops! That's my mistake.

  • "Nightfall", by Arthur C. Clarke is a short story based on this premise.

    Except in the story it's a complex multiple-star solar system that makes it very rare for all suns to set at once.

    Edit: It's actually Isaac Asimov.

  • Control theory

    Jump

  • I highly recommend Python Control Systems Library, python-control on PyPi, as a replacement for the control systems toolbox.

  • Recently started jogging 30 minutes twice a week. When does it stop feeling like I'm dying?

    Jump

  • If you're training right it never gets any easier, but you do get faster.

    Having said that, most people when they first start can't run slow enough to maintain a stable aerobic heart rate. The solution is alternating run / walk, building up to progressively more running between walk breaks.

    As an example, right now I can maintain 11:00 mi / mile at, my threshold heart rate, where I can maintain a conversation, and feel like I can keep going indefinitely. So I run 80% of my runs at that speed, and the rest at faster speeds over shorter distances. Great.

    But 2 years ago when I restarted running after a break, my aerobic pace was more than 13:00 / mile. That's a problem because at that speed I can't physically maintain the running mechanic. It breaks down. So the only options are to run faster than optimal, which means you're not getting aerobic training (instead it's anaerobic training); or to slow down into the walking mechanic.

    Research suggests that slow running in the aerobic zone is the key to improving aerobic pace and endurance. And if that aerobic pace is not possible because of mechanics, then alternating run / walk is a good way to average out the heart rate.

  • Linux 7.1 Expected To Begin Removing i486 CPU Support

    Jump

  • Linux (at least the mainline version) never supported 16-bit processors. Linus started writing the operating system on his brand new 32-bit 386 machine, and he never looked back.

  • after you pi

    Jump

  • The proof is not that ancient. Pi was proven to be irrational in 1761, and proven to be transcendental in 1882.

    For a long time the problem was known as "squaring the circle": Given a circle in a plane, construct a square with the same area using a compass and straightedge. This was a famous unsolved problem in mathematics from antiquity all the way through the renaissance.

  • Optical illusion

    Jump

  • Switzerland distributes a lot of firearms, particularly through their mandatory military service. But Switzerland also very tightly controls the supply of ammunition for all of those firearms they issue.

  • Happy 95th birthday, Captain!

    Jump

  • I think the 0.25c claim is mostly Technical Manual content and not on-screen canon. The manual also claims that the stardate calendar is designed to cope with time dilation and relativity of simultaneity issues.

  • Who could have seen this coming

    Jump

  • And Love Is In The Bin became more valuable than Girl With Balloon at a subsequent auction, too, by a factor of 18x.

  • Ex-ICE lawyer who said ‘this job sucks’ is running for Congress in Minnesota

    Jump

  • I'm pretty sure she was fired before quitting.

  • Pride Versioning

    Jump

  • For me 1.0 only means that I've delivered the software to a paying customer.

  • Your car’s tire sensors could be used to track you

    Jump

  • Eh, the fucking cellular modems in my car that stream the camera data for training can be used to track me. Hell, the anti theft tracker that I paid money for can be used to track me.

  • Trump Admits Americans Will Likely Die in New War Nobody Wants

    Jump

  • Normally, if they're gonna invade shit, they stage the invasion forces, meaning tanks and grunts, at least in the theater.

    All I've heard about is two carrier groups, which is a lot, but it's not going to invade anything. I also heard that one of the carriers deployed with broken shitters, so that's got to be going great.

  • Jeanine Pirro's office shelves pursuit of Democrats over social video, sources say

    Jump

  • No. She took this case to a grand jury for indictment, but the jurors voted 24-0 to reject the charges.

    Pirro can try again with a different grand jury at any time, but has now elected not to.

  • Coherent ideology

    Jump

  • Interesting because factions in Belfast use those exact colors.

  • FBI officially refuses to give local investigators any evidence in Minneapolis shootings

    Jump

  • More like after they lose the prelim injunction and the stay pending appeal. My guess, in the 8th circuit, is that they stand a chance at winning the stay pending appeal, which would let them keep rolling for a while.

    It's a non trivial piece of 10th amendment litigation. Maybe Minnesota has a sovereign right to investigate a homicide. But does that oblige the feds to do or not do something? Does it matter if the feds are the only way to get critical evidence? Is it important whether the feds are actively trying to thwart and deny MN's police power? Does MN have to prove they can beat the Supremacy Clause on this case before they can get stuff?

  • Just to be clear, the astronaut was cleared of wrongdoing, meaning there was no real space crime. The false report charge is an earth crime.
