Yes, that's the short of it. Each pixel needs its own wires, readout, and processing chain, and resources are limited on the spacecraft. The cryostat (instrument that keeps the pixels cold) only has so much cooling capacity and all the wires add thermal load.
Future missions are planned with more pixels (Take a look at the EASA Athena mission and its X-IFU instrument), and to reach that goal they are using multiplexing methods to allow more pixels to run on fewer wires.
My dog had double TPLO a few years ago, it changed his life. He was 3 years old and almost immobilized, low quality of life, and the surgery brought him back to normal after recovery. Our vet recommended doing them one at a time to help with healing. His play buddy got the same surgery almost exactly the same time but both legs at once, and had some pretty severe complications. Anecdotal I know, but it did play out just as our vet described.
Procedure cost around $10k all in. It's expensive, but worth it for the dog if you can.
A normally very NSFW comic called Oglaf. Brilliantly written, but don't browse at work.
I had this exact thought earlier today. Either curated directories, or a ground-up, vetted search engine that only pulls from pre-screened sources.
Airline pilots say the FAA’s system for evaluating their mental health is ‘broken.’ Some hide or ignore problems to stay in the air.
It's an issue that needs greater visibility, so I hope this kind of reporting is a step towards reform.
I'm not on your instance but support your work all the same. I'm a reddit refugee and the flying communities are what I miss the most. Hoping for continued improvement and momentum!
Thank you for the clarification and your hard work! Like others I prefer compact (strongly), so I've rolled back to 0.6 for now but will check back once it's available in 1.0.
Really tragic news. Richard was an excellent voice for aviation safety and the greater industry, his interviews and presentations were top notch. Heart goes out to his family and that of the unamed other person in the plane.
A powerful storm tore through Mesa, Arizona, September 12, leaving a swath of destruction at Falcon Field Airport.
Really sad, sounds like lots ot planes lost including an entire training fleet.
Pardon the rant, it's just topical for me because I'm in unplanned car-buying mode and it's at the front of my mind right now.
I'm not a fan of the haggling system that's common and accepted in the US car dealership model. The thing that bothers me most about it, though, is how other people feel entitled to comment, interject, critique, and judge you on your haggling prowes and savvy both before and after your purchase. It's unavoidable; even if you try to keep it a secret during the process, once you show up to work driving a different car, inevitably someone notices and asks, "Did you get a good deal?" Of course you can deflect, lie, change the subject, but I'm annoyed that it's such a common topic in the first place. I don't want to have to justify my choice to someone else.
Right now, we're dealing with a sudden loss of a car, so my spouse and I are somewhat desperate and need a car right now. That takes a lot of decision room off the table, and we'll have to take what we can get. It doesn't help that we're not in a major metro market so the choices are slim. Still, we're getting the 'Don't go there they'll rip you off," "Make sure you use the end-of-month quotas to your advantage," type of advice from friends who know we're car shopping. I know they're trying to be helpful as they see it, but it really adds to the stress we're already under to find something while working around schedules. I don't care about price as much as finding something that fits our needs in this messed up post-COVID distorted market with few options.
I know I'm not the first person to feel this way. Thanks for listening to my rant.
Since it's banned I can't see to verify the claim it was "unmoderated". Can anybody confirm or refute? Any recent screenshots would be nice. I'd lean toward this being a convenient excuse they used to get rid of a troublesome voice, but would appreciate context.
You're probably right, I'm just avoiding it for good now. And guessing the mods would remove any questioning posts from r/programming. R/outoftheloop would likely help, but again, I'm done giving them traffic or content.
I was checking if Relay still works for me (it does), and happened to see this post at the top of my feed calling out bots on programming: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/14trtla/the_ai_bots_have_arrived_at_rprogramming/
First off, I was surprised that programming was allowing posts again; last I checked it was restricted. Judging by timestamps, it looks like it opened up 2 days ago.
The weird thing is that most posts since reopening have negative scores and no comments. !Screenshot example with several 0 karma posts.
Is this a continuing protest by r/programming users? Are they calling out bots and astroturfing with a scorched earth approach? I haven't checked the 0 karma posts closely to see if they are all bots, but that would make sense since not all posts are zeroed.
Have been avoiding reddit in general so I'm out of the loop.
Replying from Memmy beta, love it, thanks for all your hard work!
My take is that it's a good start and important step towards fully de-leading the fleet fuel. There was a good article on AVweb breaking down the difference between the STC and ASTM approaches and the work that still need to be done:

If you own a plane, do you intend to buy the GAMI STC for it?
Do you have access to G100UL at your airport or in your area?
