Because at the end of the day everything gets simplified to a 1 or a 0. You could store a fraction as an “object” but at some point it needs to be turned into a number to work with. That’s where floating points come into play.
You do know we can do more than one thing at time, right? Increase taxes on the rich, reduce subsidies for fossil fuels, those are just two off the top of my head. So, yes, strictly speaking you’re right that a certain amount can help offset things, but it doesn’t mean it needs to come from here.
Also, what do you mean by “we helped create”. Fairly certain the US didn’t tell Putin to go invade a sovereign country.
That’s a bit disingenuous of a headline. They compared a prototype to an inservice production speed. As stated, other prototypes have exceeded 500km/h. Now if this goes into service it’ll hold the record there.
It’s not that they can’t survive because of their size, it’s that they can’t survive with the crappy products they’ve been putting out lately and their costs. From what I’ve seen Subaru still has a decent profit margin, so it doesn’t matter that they’re smaller.
In addition to wired you’d probably also see an uptick in line of sight optical transmissions via laser. Both of those options would really be the only two ways around it.
For me, since my entire house is wired, I’d just lose use of my cell phone. Most all internet infrastructure is wired too, so all that would continue to operate.
Which are all things you can easily do with an RPi and some simple python. My response was to OP stating that embedded systems are hard.
If you’re using a specific embedded system and want to make it pretty, sure that could pose some issues, but if you want to make something functional that matches what a smart thermostat can do, there’s not much behind it.
Nokotan?
