Yeah well put. It should be said that regulations OFTEN cite certifications from non-regulatory bodies. Regulators are often legislators and executors, not scientists that understand the rationales behind good practice. Certification bodies (like UL, as one example, or SAE for automotive) have the scientists to do the requirements.
Important article. Why is it posted on fediverse
I feel the need to step in here. Certification != regulation. Regulation means there is a body that can enforce the requirements with monetary or other damaging repercussions. What Oceangate faced were certifications and their decision to side-step them were met with no repercussions except their reputation with those who wouldn’t ever want to step inside their sub anyways.
Point is - regulations would have prevented this, but there are none.
Yeah probably not what you’re looking for but Out There on Android is a sleeper. Think The Martian (yeah the novel) mixed with No Man’s Sky. Some free and open elements with a journal-driven story progression. Difficult as well.
First of all, best user icon. Saw it before, commenting on it now
Second, the intent of supercaps shouldn’t be range but batter loading. The limit of regenerative braking is not in the torque of the motor but what you need to do to transform the generated current into chemical energy in a battery. It’s not as simple as passing the current through a capacitor, but with supercaps it is. So with the supercaps you can dump extreme currents and either use the energy for taking off or redirect it to the battery.
I demonstrated this in my senior design project at uni and it worked well. Didn’t have a load I couldn’t absorb with a bunch of the caps. The issue was they’re very low voltage, so similar to the li-ion cells you need a lot of them in series to match the system voltage.
Windy is it. Great initial view of favorites for the quick check and beautiful visualizations, but man does it get deep if you want to double click.
For instance, a few weeks back I wanted to see why the sun looked orange and the sky was pale at ~3pm, so I pulled up the particulates map. I could see a 6hr moving map of particulates making their way from Alberta CA over to the skies to my west.
Also, they show a breakdown of all the major weather service providers’ forecasts and detail which are better in which situations, helping you understand if that forecast you’re planning on is really going to happen or it’s just wishful thinking.
Oh, and you can set up alerts to notify you days ahead of time if conditions are right for activities, like if it’s cool enough and good enough air quality to go for a run or if the wave swells will be high for surfing or what have you.
They’ll make a movie
Heh, I feel like I was more active on Reddit during family gatherings…
It’s a great reminder why first-past-the-post needs to go. Who’s going to step up for the Dems this year? Are we really counting on an anemic Biden to carry the party against an energized right? Or will someone step up to the plate only to be reprimanded as a “spoiler”?
We need actual competition in the political space. If incumbent cronyism could be effectively challenged we’d have politicians who care a bit more about representing and a bit less about political capital.
But that’s not the case here.
There isn’t any regulation of commercial submersibles like there is for ground or air. Anywhere around the world. So the “de” of deregulation is not applicable.
Should there be regulation? Yeah absolutely, if submersibles are going to be a thing. But that’s just called regulation.
I find most commentary reads as though people were expecting GTA from CDPR, which is completely unfair. I don’t see a lot of “this doesn’t play like Skyrim” from TW3 commentary, and there’s a lot in common with those comparisons: CDPR titles are more story-driven, less freedom in their protagonist’s character and role, and far less “life” outside the main path (ie, townsfolk and little finds along the way).
Means “smart”. Here used ironically
Negativity bias is objectively consistent and has been known for quite a while. It’s important we balance that out with an intentional focus on positive thinking.
Damn you’re on a tear. You’re a 1%er for determination. I wouldn’t dream of holding any full time job much less SW Eng’g (?) while taking chem classes, much less actually getting in any exercise.
Here’s an example: how can I subscribe to the topics I want to follow? I don’t want to see the 198 or whatever it is posts. Nor programmer humour. Lemmy has a great community of fans and users but if I can’t see only what I want I’m not going to use it.
Hard disagree. People are far more cunning and twist the news more than an AI ever could. AI would in most cases remove bias and improve understanding among their audience. Case in point: current.report
