Surely it would just look like light (with a different 'colour'). Things that block it would not appear to give off light, things that allow it to pass would appear to glow, and things that reflect it would just be visible if there is already some ambient wifi 'light' to reflect.
Is this actually how things work at these lower frequencies? Or would it work completely differently in regards to how it refracts/reflects etc?
THIS!
What medium are you throwing it in, treacle?
or you will GOTO Mech hell!
Explained perfectly. It's kind of what I *thought* in a fuzzy kind of way. Good to see it explained
Ta.
Congrats guys.
This pretty much proves that a human athlete has enough power to provide enough thrust/downforce for lift. So my question is, would it be feasible to generate this same level of thrust in a smaller area using the same amount of power?
I'm guessing that by having such large rotors with low air speeds and low thrust per unit area, that efficiencies are kept high and this is why it works.
Would there be that huge an efficiency decrease if the same amount of thrust were generated on a smaller area? If that's what it boils down to, then we will never be able to make this work at 'reasonable' scales
I'd still be inclined to call this 2.5D or 3D at a stretch. Use of the terminology 'dimension' usually implies the ability to make use of that dimension an arbitrary amount. So X & Y can be as big as you can make the surface. That is your 2 true dimensions.
The Z, in this case, is only '3 layers'. Maybe in the future that can be an arbitrary size, but for now it's just 3 layers. Not really a full 'dimension'. Once they can go arbitrarily large in Z, then you can call it 3D.
As for 4 & 5 (size and orientation), there can only be a certain number of sizes and orientations that each bit could represent. Really this is just changing the storage from Base 2 (Or Base 10 to be
Bah it's all just marketing anyway, right?
I will make one with dot colour as a factor. SIX DEE STORAGE!!!!
I remember reading about this a while ago when I discovered SPDY, and from what I understood is that in SPDY/HTTP2.0, the multiple transfers can be multiplexed. So rather than Connection A requesting resource 1 and then requesting resource 2 etc, it could theoretically request 'all resources I need to render this page above the fold' or something. Then those resources come down simultaneously. When the last one is finished, the page can display.
This would definitely save some overhead for re-requesting resources in the same connection.
Sure, you could help currently by inlining as much as you can and using CSS sprites to reduce image resource requests, but this way would keep things more modular/separated...
Yep, the static IP is nice, though it has to be said that I am getting on just fine with non-static and the dynamic dns services work just fine for me. The ~1-5min outage when it auto-updates is only a mild annoyance, but not a huge issue to me as I only use my home server for personal stuff and testing. I have a few servers 'out there' for production stuff.
And I hear you on the momentum thing. It's one reason I still have cable. I think their retentions dept is too good lol. But the moment I can find a legit way to watch F1 live, bye bye Rogers!
If you do decide to try out Teksavvy and laziness/momentum is an issue for you (it's an issue for me too, I have not upgraded to my cheaper-but-faster or more-expensive-but-much-faster-VDSL service yet and I am still on legacy 6/0.8
There is also a VDSL modem fiasco holding me back (Thanks, again, to Bell).
Sorry, I'm babbling
Which product do you have? I don't see one with 30Mbit/s upload...
Oh and I also got a letter from Teksavvy about fees too...
That's right, they REDUCED them
I actually said in my original post:
"But this would not apply if you were with one of the Big Two. Maybe that's what you meant? They barely count as internet service if you ask me. Rip-off merchants!"
By that I meant Rogers and Bell. Sorry to burst your bubble
And I was talking upload speeds, not download speeds; With Teksavvy, 15Mbit down
For your $80-at-Rogers, you can get 25/10 with unlimited download or 50/10 with 300GB cap at Teksavvy.
What would actually happen with Rogers is, as you say, $155 or a disconnect, but at Teksavvy it would be ~16.5 days(if you used off-peak, or and no overage charges/cut-offs, like I said
BTW, your math is wrong*. If you only had 2Mbit/s upload, it would take you ~80 days. Unless you really meant you get 2MB/s upload, in which case you mean you get 30MB/s download which would put you at the 250Mbit/s product which costs $225/month. If you got that for $80, sign.me.up lol.
*I realise now that I had a typo in my original post and put 10MBps. I meant 10Mbit/s
Go on, do it
