How does the ray of sunlight light up her face if sundown is just behind her. Cool composition, but fucked up physics.

IIRC some car batteries can be used that way, but it wears out the battery.
- Comment on Anon thinks about CPUs 5 months ago:
They use electron beams and extreme UV light nowadays. Lasers are not necessarily the best light source, even at other wavelengths.

Photolithography started as a printing technique and is pretty basic.
- Comment on Anon thinks about CPUs 5 months ago:
You start with macroscopic photolithography, add material science of semiconductors and then iterate a million times. It didn’t start at nanoscale.

What you don’t get is a feeling for how common these failures occur though.
- Comment on near zero 5 months ago:
What do you mean by independent? There is no more general and independent notion of ordering than a less-than operator. The article above oulines a mathematical proof that no such definition exists in a consistent way for the complex numbers.
- Comment on near zero 5 months ago:
I’m not saying the numbers stop. But there are numbers where concepts like “closer to zero” or “number before [another number]” don’t apply.
For example There is no sensible way to define a less-than for the complex numbers and thus they can’t be ordered.

Whoa slow down there buddy. Proposing numbers before numbers like they are a given.
- Comment on How to port any N64 game to the PC in record time 5 months ago:
Ah, i think i misunderstood your comment.
In terms of archiving I agree, in terms of restoring a running copy from an archive, maybe not.

C code that reproduces a running binary on an up to date compiler is worse than a machine code binary for a legacy machine of which complete Emulation is not guaranteed?

Source seems to be the same study as this. But obviously the labelling is bullshit
