With coherent detection I think the separation between eyes would allow for this.

Except that this problem doesn’t specify distance between horseman, so I think it’s a bit bogus — no need to resolve an individual person to be able to tell that they’re there. And for hair color, if you make assumptions about the clothes being worn, you could perhaps infer color of hair, even if the hair isn’t resolvable (a person being a “single pixel” would have a different hue depending).

Dipoles are, effectively, not — so if you have a charged bit and another opposite charged bit, while an inverse relationship might exist between either one, the net effect is that it drops off much faster.

The thing with gravity is it tends to go one way, unlike, say, charge.

This is the real big brain hack with decibels — you can use a linear scale, it’s just that the units are logarithmic instead.

(Yes I know most people would call a dB axis logarithmic, it’s just a silly comment.)

We still use leaded gas for aviation, as does (I believe) the EU (I’m guessing RoW, too).

(Supposed to be banned this year in the EU but AFAICT pushed back until 2032.)

Deja vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something.

Fail2ban config can get fairly involved in my experience. I’m probably not doing it the right way, as I wrote a bunch of web server ban rules — anyone trying to access wpadmin gets banned, for instance (I don’t use WordPress, and if I did, it wouldn’t be accessible from my public facing reverse proxy).

I just skimmed my nginx logs and looked for anything funky and put that in a ban rule, basically.

And probably only the second half of the 2nd amendment.

The lack of logic is astounding.

These are the same people who think abstinence only education works. Safe to say they’re a few fries short of a Happy Meal.

Judging by the camera angle, OP may have been today years old when they learned this as well (I learned it well into my 30s, too).

Windows is just as hard as linux, harder even with all the layers of obscurity.

With Windows, there is 1 current version of Windows (11), 1 “almost current” (10), 1 “outdated but you’ll maybe see it” (8.x) and only a few “you’ll probably only see this in obscure situations” versions. Linux has as many “parent” distros/package management systems (apt, rpm, pacman, etc.). This definitely complicates things, as each distro family does things slightly differently.

And we haven’t even touched the window manager/DE choices, of which there are a ton (as opposed to Windows). “Combinatorical explosion” maybe isn’t the right phrase, but you get the idea — Debian with i3wm is wildly different from Fedora Plasma.

This is all a good thing though, as Linux users tend to like the choice and flexibility — but it does mean that the “right way” to do something on Linux is very dependent on your particular setup, which isn’t the case with Windows.

(I have used Linux for the last 20+ years, and it’s definitely my preferred setup, and am lucky enough that I rarely use Windows for work, and never for personal use.)

I, read this like, William Shatner, in his, role as, captain, Kirk.

I’m gonna try to guess the most likely LLM response to your post, trained on reddit data:

“This.”

How’d I do?

Pretty sure that’s completely acceptable in parts of northern California (source: born and raised in northern California).

I was writing up my problem set answers once, and it involved the (complex analysis) residue. I wasn’t sure if there was a shortcut (as opposed to \mathrm); googling latex residue did not produce the search results I was hoping for…

And many folks have headless setups — raspberry pis, home servers, VPSs, etc. It’s kinda overkill to install a desktop environment on a headless box if the only reason you need it is so you can VNC into it for a simple task that could be done over ssh.

I for one am glad this demographic got exactly what they voted for.

Emphasis mine.

The problem is that “they” did not all vote this way. Yeah, I too am glad that the Trumpers are getting their comeuppance — fuck them. But your rhetoric is a bit extreme and devoid of empathy.

For some (most?) of us, we don’t have ssh access open to the world, so everything is over a VPN. So I can just use NFS over WireGuard which afaik is fairly secure, if you trust your endpoints, and works great over the Internet.

This is obvious though — currently, you might test a drug on mice, then on primates, and finally on humans (as an example). It would be faster to skip the early bits and go straight to human testing.

…but that is very, very, very wrong. Science of course doesn’t care about right and wrong, nor does it care if you “believe” in it, which is the beautiful thing about science — so a scientifically sound experiment is a scientifically sound experiment regardless of ethical considerations. (Which does not mean we should be doing it of course!)

Now, taking a step back, maybe you’re right that, in the long run, throwing ethics out the window would actually slow things down, as it would (rightfully) cause backlash. But that’s getting into a whole “sociology of science” discussion.

I miss the days when that X font was only associated with Xorg…
