Correct… they “cheated” a little to make the props for the movie. There are other designs for single-sheet unicorn, winged unicorn, and Pegasus — particularly the ones from John Montroll — but they look a bit different from the movie props, and are harder to fold.
Its so alive. The whole world. So rundown. So real, so breathing. It inspired so much stuff in the things i create. Less heroic stuff, more how would the people of a future world eat, sleep, crave6&rave&bebrave, repeat
The impression I get from the article is not that the compiled code of each implementation produces the same object code, but that when the implementations are run with the same inputs, they produce exactly the same output — that is, the same JS VM bytecode.
If they had developed a technique to get a modern C++ compiler and rustc to generate exactly the same output for any program (even a trivial one) I think that would be huge news and I would love to see all the linker hacking that would involve.
I hiked up there once… There was a reservoir with a trail around it and, to my surprise, a fenced-off area full of goats. Apparently they were part of a vegetation control program used in the parks there.
It only looks for a single leading “e” or “i”, not any number. I’m guessing those tweaks were added to capture specific proper nouns that weren’t captured by simpler “leading capital letter” regexes, like “iPad” or “eBay”.
"*" is "0 or more" and "+" is "1 or more", it looks for any number of "e" or "i" at the beginning and at least one capital letter. The diagram below the regex is wrong.
The Asus product line, yes (all three Es apparently stand for "easy"). But Asus write it with a capital E on the front. Still, somebody else might not.
The unlikeliness of the wooden spaceship was one of my favorite parts of the sci-fi mystery/adventure game “The Outer Wilds”. (An indie gem…highly recommended, if you like puzzles or exploration.)
I wasn’t sure what the article meant by “no screws or glue”, when the photograph appears to have visible screws. But closer images show that these are apparently some sort of rivet?
I found a (Japanese-language-only) news piece that shows some of the crafting and assembly of the satellite, and the box body certainly holds together by itself, via some beautifully intricate joinery:
It looks like there's a metal(?) frame with rivets, screws used to secure internal electronic components, and the internal wood 'body' seems to be assembled with fastener-less joinery. There are some photos of the cubesat without the frame here: https://www.infoespacial.com/texto-diario/mostrar/4304727/ja...
That's the standard for a "cubesat". I believe the industry has standardised on 10cm^3 units for these satellites so that "ridesharing" or multi-party launches can work with less back and forth on systems integration between the satellite being launched and the launch vehicle.
My understanding of the article is that some companies added sesame to their products and ingredients label, while others may have changed their label to say the product “may contain” sesame — but that Bimbo did neither of these things, instead changing their label to say that the product definitely contained sesame, when in fact sesame was not an ingredient.
Exactly, most commenters here don't seem to understand this or understand how FDA allergen labelling works. Bimbo would be fine if they just used a "may contains" or actually added sesame to their products (although the FDA doesn't like this.)
I recall Amazon’s Lord of the Rings title sequence [1] received some criticism for looking fake, even though they filmed it practically [2]. I’d guess it was due to folks assuming title sequences are CGI, combined with the fact that few people really know what poured liquid metal is supposed to look like.
There's a similar problem with gunshots and explosions - we want what movies have given us which is not what they actually act/sound like - so much so that live recordings of actual gunfire/explosions is often deemed "fake".
