I never really understood why: signal strength of brain compared to everything else is not used diagnostically. I don't think PET is so close to the acceptable SNR boundary that the amount of "shiny glucose" this takes away from everywhere else matters (or am I wrong?). Or does this introduce variations _within_ the brain that might be confusing?

Also, _good luck_ getting some people not to think too hard :)

Sadly one of the MS blog migrations got rid of all the comments :/

@whitequark

You mean shooters where you play against people or against bots?

@domi @foone

I expect that the probe is scaling the voltage down for the multimeter (this is what HV oscilloscope probes do).

@foone

What's the dial on the probe?

Today in people are nice:

I saw a small corvid that was sitting suspiciously motionlessly on a kerb. I was running for a short distance, so didn't even have a phone with me. Before I could think of whether I should go back for my phone and a box (and hope the bird didn't hide) or ring a random doorbell a woman with a cardboard box appeared.

@TheBreadmonkey

Best stick to things around iron: ~everything below iron in atomic number can be fused. Things sufficiently above iron can be taken apart for energy (though sometimes we have found no way to catalyze that).

@0xabad1dea

What's the difference between a road for cars that's red and one that's not? Should one expect a separate bike path right next to the latter (and thus ~no bikes on the latter)?

@phil Nope, GPS was right. They made tiles from OSM once and didn't refetch them for years while the tram network was built out.

@whitequark

You mean compiling llvm itself to wasm? A friend of mine compiled clang to wasm and used that to make an in-browser thingy that can run your C++ program on a given input: https://wasm-ide.lucaversari.it/

@erin do you know how modern seeing machines do variable speed control? (I started wondering whether the PSU contains thinking sand.)

@b0rk

Explicitly deleting the reflog entry/pruning the reflog (git reflog has subcommands for both, git gc can be explicitly given the age threshold).

I'm not sure what happens with the per-branch reflogs when you delete the branch and per-worktree reflogs when you delete the worktree.

@foone

If you let the disk fall/slide into a slot shutter-side-first (and stop it there for a while, presumably with another servo) you could probably use the same camera for front and side.

@foone With some more mirrors you could get all 3 distances to be closer to equal (getting them exactly equal is not that helpful given that even one side is not at a constant distance from the focal point, unless you arrange for some lens arrangement that has an effective focal point very far away).

@nisjasper

I can't answer your question really (I'm somewhat of a loner and trains are a thing I'm comparatively less into), but want to suggest another potential direction: there are people who are very much into rail signaling systems: simulating them, using them in model rail, restoring physical hardware, operating full country-sized simulated rail networks, ... I don't know whether that's less conservatively-grumpy area.

@patcharcana the most wooden ones I've seen were made from pressboard fwiw
