Use a Taylor series with a four function calculator.

0 is a decent approximation of sin near 0.

x is a better one.

x - x^3/6 is an even better one.

x - x^3/6 + x^5/120 ...

Note that x here is in radians rather than degrees so convert (degrees * pi/180) first. Repeat until you're satisfied with how many stable digits you get

Agencies don't make law. They make rules which implement and execute the statutes which provide for their authority. This has been upheld as valid in many, many cases.

On what basis do you believe Congress is not allowed to delegate any power. The idea that statutes cannot allow for administrative rulemaking is some psycho libertarian bullshit because it is literally impossible to run an administrative state where the nuts and bolts (rather than just the goals, outcomes, and boundaries) of the administration of law must be handled legislatively.

Very basically, to go the same direction, a small disk on the inside and the outside of a large disk need to spin opposite directions. When you're on the outside, your spinning direction agrees with the direction you go around the circle (i.e. the rotations add). When you're on the inside your spinning direction is the opposite of the direction you go around the circle (the rotation subtracts).

I am an undergraduate Electrical/Computer Engineering student at the University of Toronto graduating in May 2024, currently searching for new grad opportunities. I just wrapped up a 16 month Co-op doing verification for high speed interfaces (100G Ethernet/PCIE Gen6) last year, and am currently doing a thesis project in systems software on log compression using static analysis.

I'm interested in a wide variety of technical work spanning the range from lab tasks characterizing hardware, hardware development or verification, firmware development, systems software, backend software development, and infrastructure work. I'm hoping to work in industries surrounding climate/energy or other industries where my work would make a positive impact. Shoot me an email if it sounds like I would be a good fit.
