Im all for this. I miss the tactile feedback of older hard drives, you knew the computer was actually doing something. New computers are too quiet, like electric cars.
Thank you for this! Too bad there isn't an already prepared virtual project where you can view this in 3D. Might be a fun coding project to load the slices into a UI for easier viewing.
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.
In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was.
The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.
On the admin side it's gotten worse. Working in IT and having to support Windows 11 through Active Directory is a nightmare now. MS has removed almost all admin control in favor of user choice forcing us into workarounds and hacks to get most things working. It also seems evident they would like Active Directory to go away in favor of their cloud options which are horrible slow and clunky.
Mr. Robot had one of the craziest endings I have ever seen in a show. I'll admit I had a tough time watching it around S2 because so much was unexplained, and I felt like I was going insane.
So glad I stuck it out though, I still think about it.
It worked okay at first but seemed to start just giving me answers again after a few questions. This was ChatGPT for reference. I might try something again now that they have "Projects" where you can define a prompt which sticks to the entire project.
The idea was to use ChatGPT as debugging ducky 2.0
Hell, I’d argue a similar prompt could be useful for a lot of people. I use something similar for coding and ask it not to provide direct code and more a guide on coding principals with source links if possible.
Sadly no, I am still designing and testing the units in the field to make sure they can withstand the elements. I probably should though as I imagine quite a few people would be interested.
I play airsoft in the middle of nowhere, when 300 people show up the cell towers can’t hold up and my phone signal is useless. Using LoRa radios we can still communicate long distances in the forest without using our voices.
My second use case is I build airsoft and paintball digital flags and scoring boxes using LED strips and microcontrollers. I plan to test and use LoRa radios for them to communicate through the forest and relay game status or even allow refs to control things for dynamic gameplay.
Sure thing!
I often use it to add code comments to my powershell scripts after I've written them, sprinkling in quotes from some of my favorite movies from the 80s like Spaceballs, Princess Bride, Airplane, etc...
"User '$username' found. Preparing to eject them from the AD universe."
"Failed to import Active Directory module. Inconceivable!"
"Failed to delete user '$username'. I am serious, and don't call me Shirley."
Other times I will ask it questions related to scripting commandlets and it often responds in a tone that is more fun to read at least.
"Firstly, ensure you're connected to the mystical realm of Exchange Online. If you're scratching your head wondering how, refer back to the ancient scrolls on how to establish a connection. It involves Get-Credential, New-PSSession, and a bit of patience."
I made a custom GPT that was explicitly told to include snark, sarcasm, and dark humor in all of my IT related responses or code comments, it makes my day every time.
Not either of them but I use Power-hell in my daily job to automate a lot of active directory related things, I can also confirm it can piss you off and has quite a few 'isms or gotchas. The way some things handle single and double quotes can drive you literally insane.
I also see the value of the humor added to a game played with a group of friends and don't see it as a negative towards someone with a comparable or even exact condition. I believe that a person can play a game which exaggerates some aspects for gameplay/comedic value and still empathize with serious mental health issues.
As someone that is always curious and worried about mental health would you mind explaining what a typical days experience is like for yourself?
