(not a Twitter user) I saw the post linked below Carmacks post and I had assumed it's a comment to his post!

n=1, I was on a jury about a hit and run with a gun where flock cameras across the area were used as supporting evidence that the shooter was the acused. It painted a picture of his flight after the accident in his car.

Lots of other evidence was provided along it too. The defendant also left his phone on which was more damning, but it definitely helped us, as jurors, arrive to the "without reasonable doubt" conclusion

That's awesome.

In the US, they are everywhere - apartment buildings, houses, business. Amazon's Ring might the most popular, but there are many vendors.

All of these are "Artist's Impressions". My best guess is they run a simulation based on the data from the spacecraft and then can pan the camera around as they see fit

Further down, they explain the measurement errors involved:

" If you buy the same product twice, how much will chemical levels vary?

When we bought two samples of the same product, plastic chemical levels differed on average by 59%, calculated as Relative Percent Difference (RPD).

To test whether completely identical samples would show different levels of chemicals, we sent about 10% of our products in triplicate. This means we sent three copies of the product from the same batch – with matching lot number and expiration date – bought at the same store on the same day. We found that the triplicate samples differed less – on average by 33%.

Our lab’s quality control methodology lists 20% RPD as an acceptable margin of measurement error for duplicate samples, meaning if you tested the exact same sample twice, you could see up to a 20% difference purely due to measurement noise. Taking that into account, the RPD for two samples of the same product (not necessarily from the same lot) ranges from 39-59%. For samples with the same lot number and expiration date, the RPD narrows to 13-33%.

Within-product variability appears high, possibly because we are dealing with very small chemical concentrations measured in nanograms."

How does tailscale help with securely self-hosting from home? I have it setup to interface securely with my PCs across networks (like at my inlaws), but not sure how it helps if i were to expose something to the world.

Thanks!

> ... I have finally finished my steam loco after 10 years I do like looking at it and driving it.

That sounds fascinating! Could you share some more about your project?

That's pretty cool! Is this a new development or something that was reused from decades ago?

Great Atuin, that's amazing. Thank you, this is indeed a game changer for having a permanent history. I use ctrl+r for everything including commands I vaguely remember but know at least some letters

Depends but in general yes. I have a relative who owns his own truck and finds his own loads. He gets paid when he delivers his load, so he's still incentivesed to go as fast as possible. Thankfully he's not as tech savvy to cheat the ELD
