5·2 months agoI used to work with those kinds of tolerances. Sensors for supersonic vehicles definitely need them and the tools to make them as well. Our tolerances were as tight as 0.01 arcseconds in rotations of motors smaller then my hand.

53·3 months agoFractional CTO: Some small companies benefit from the senior experience of these kinds of executives but don’t have the money or the need to hire one full time. A fraction of the time they are C suite for various companies.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Which countries combine high quality of life and strong equality?
7·3 months agoNew Zealand has good QoL but does have issues with inequality with the Maori (original Polynesian settlers). They are strict about immigration which tries to help reduce immigrant inequality. Australia has better economic QoL, but there is no wildlife in NZ that will kill you.
It’s classification AI not generative AI. Basically smart tagging. And it’s optional. Super helpful though and runs locally on your machine.
Nothing. Just helps pay for development.

Cool Guides@lemmy.ca•Americans' thanksgiving pie preferences by stateEnglish
11·3 months agoI lived in NC for 28 years, never heard of buttermilk pie. Derby and pumkin were popular as well as pecan.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: The Invention Secrecy Act is a US federal law authorizing the government to suppress disclosure of certain inventions for reasons of national security. 6,543 inventions are currently suppressed.
8·3 months agoYes, exactly. I used to design tools to test these and we weren’t allowed to patent them, but I think some of the high level concepts were secret patents though I can’t know that.
For anyone wondering the thing ICBMs (and jet planes) use is called a gyroscope and gives the same output but it isn’t a “spinning top” gyro that you might be thinking of. Rather think super sensitive dynamo, or reversed motor. Tiny rotation turns into voltage signal.
There is an even newer type that uses laser but I don’t know anything about it.

16·3 months agoI wouldn’t be surprised if most of them have to do with rocketry or bioweapons and other things to make them work. I’ve designed things personally that are not destructive themselves but aid in testing or improving accuracy of hypersonic vehicles. The DOW (formerly DOD) did not allow us to apply for patents due to national security.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Adding stickers to my fruit so it's harder to recycleEnglish
16·4 months agoWhen I managed our compost as a kid growing up, we composted the stickers and they would break down faster then egg shells or cofee grounds. But that was 20 years ago and in the US.
Different versions of this were plastered all over high schools in my area when I attended a decade ago. Not satire unfortunately.
Trunpet gang about getting fingering and mouthing right then a little stroke when you get to the D.
Thanks! I discovered you don’t need to build a transformer to be openai compatible. This operates more as a slot machine so I didn’t waste energy training a model to be a duck and its more lightweight. There’s 70ish possible responses with varying rarities and just a simple rule not to repeat the same one twice. If you use the website or API there is a slight chance your “data” will be captured by your ISP or HF, but it’s open source and super lightweight so you can run it locally. If you are super security minded you might notice there are 3 things obfuscated in the source code. They are just fun Easter eggs obfuscated like a spoiler tag, but it’s just base64 so you can easily audit to verify my claim that it’s humor not vulnerability.
I put the cat tree next to my front door so my kitty could affection attack my head and shoulders instead of tripping me when I got home from work.






Everything was temp and humidity controlled in the factory and delivery. After that I don’t know. I know when we branched out and did control sticks we did thermal cycles where someone held it with 2 hands running on a treadmill to simulate the exhertion of a pilot.
