Casual sentences and mathematics/logic don't go very well together, and lead to ambiguities and interpretation if there are no clear rules defined beforehand. This reminds me of those silly problems that circulate on TikTok with a series of additions and multiplications. The "correct" result depends on how you assume the operations precedence. Here, does "being a liar" mean that we have to take as a true statement the negation of "all my hats are green"? If so, is that "NOT all my hats are green"? How does that translate back to the mathematics realm? Is it {total_hats>0, green_hats>=1}, or is it {total_hats>=0, green_hats>=0}?
I find it strange that people here are fixated with the solving software part. What's really cool to me in the project is the mechanical solution; fitting all the motors, axles, MCU, sensors and battery inside a customized cube.
Why don't we see the Moon's shadow projected over the Earth in the pic? I guess it has to do with the relative distances of the 2 bodies to the Sun and the Moon's penumbra or something. Can someone make a digital image simulation of this to verify?
The BSC has several interfaces. One of them is the APG, used for Operation & Maintenance. It's a Windows module, accessible by IP. The APG serves as a gateway to the node's core via MML (Man-Machine Language), the instructions to operate the node.
As a spaniard myself, I can confirm this is an accurate description of what siesta looks like on most cases. Short nap on the couch after a coffee, for those who take lunch at home, or just on the weekends otherwise.
Join a meetup.com group of movie lovers (or whatever you enjoy, but avoid too-geeky groups). Slowly get to know people attending the meetups. Just be nice. Don't be afraid to politely express your opinions. When you see someone that seems alone or new to the group, be the first to approach them. You can meet tons of interesting people this way.
I wonder, what should we do as individuals? Shall we refuse to take prescribed antibiotics for "minor" things, and let the body heal itself at the cost of some extra discomfort? Would that make any difference in the long run? Does the resistance apply to any kind of antibiotics?
In Madrid (Spain), an engineer with 10 years of experience in a technical role can expect an average of 55k€ per year, before a 25% tax cut. Similar (or a bit lower) for a programmer. I won't call it a crappy salary. You can make a pretty decent living with that. Welcome to southern Europe!
I've worked in Dubai. I found the article pretty accurate. So much, that I was surprised to read on it the same analogies I've been doing myself to describe the country to my friends (an adult Disneyland, a soul-less country, a spoiled generation of young locals).
I strongly suspect this is not due to an outage in the network, but rather intentional. Some years ago I worked on a project for a Japanese mobile operator to implement a system that prevents "normal" mobile phones from making calls to avoid overloading the network. When activated, only emergency services (fire fighters, police, medical, ...) are allowed to call. At regular intervals, a batch of the "civilian" phones are allowed too for a while, then a different batch, etc, so everyone gets its chance to call if they wait long enough.
The system was a government requirement for events such as yesterday's quake, but I can't confirm all phone disturbances reported were/are due to it.
Technically, it relies on a bitpattern called "accessClasssNBarred".
