4 days agoI think the TLDR of the entire post is this:
-
anyone can edit the map, and it can be fun to do.
-
So open the app and see if anything is missing or wrong, and add your info to anything that feels good to do

0·5 days agoI don’t know if that’s true, especially in comparison to ai. I think a competent random human would do research before taking charge of a coffee shop and be in reasonably good shape from day one. For sure some mistakes would be made, but i think generally the operation would run ok.
But all of that misses the key difference - a human doing this wouldn’t be a random person, they would usually have relevant past experience, like previously being an assistant manager at a coffee shop. So they would manage the shop way better than this ai did.
Maybe if they create an ai that has been specially designed to manage a business then it might perform as well or better than a human, possibly. But just throwing a standard ai in the role is gonna work much less well than a human.
Like, names of presidents? Dude.
Your confused about what I’m saying. The ARRAY OF RADAR STATIONS is emitters. I’m saying THE ATTACKERS AGAINST the array of radar stations only need to be passive detectors.
That’s the topic of the thread your replying in. Quote:
you could theoretically make a moderately large distributed array sprinkled over a few square kilometers
Your information about passive radar detection is not up to date. There are tons of passive detection of radar systems that by design do zero emission. The radar array stations will need to emit in order to function, but the enemy can find those radar emitters without emitting any energy of their own
I’m not understanding. Let’s say army A has a radar array of 500 relatively cheap radar stations. They clump them all into a 1 square km area. So now army Z drives some howitzers nearby (which aren’t detectable by ground based radar), waits till a radar station turns on, the passively locates the radar base station, and shoots a cheap shell at it which destroys it.
But if you say army A has the level of military equipment that can locate and destroy howitzers up to 30 km away in all directions, then what benefit does an array of concentrated radar stations provide?
Locating radar emissions is a passive process, it doesn’t reveal your own location. That’s why i said the radar array would have to have very strong defenses extending out 30 km in all 360 degree directions from each individual radar station. And if a group has that strong a level of military equipment already then i don’t see why they would need this huge redundant array of radar stations all concentrated in a small area.
Locating the radar base station? No that’s the easiest part. Radar is like turning on a Hollywood style searchlight pointing up into the sky. The instant you turn it on its extremely obvious where the radar searchlight is coming from
Unless I’m missing something in your plan i don’t think that would work well. If these radar stations aren’t surrounded by very serious defensive systems for hundreds of miles in every direction, then they’ll simply be blown up by dumb howitzer shells that only cost around 2000 dollars.
Howitzers are cheap, relatively long range, mobile, and accurate enough. If you don’t have strong enough defenses to prevent the howitzers from moving into range, then they’ll just blow up all your radar stations with cheap shells.
0·1 month agoOh wow, aside from the slight misunderstanding of that single word, your english is flawless. I had no idea you weren’t a native english speaker. You should be proud!
And thanks for clarifying
Most people primarily use the printed image on the pieces to look through the pile to find the correct adjacent piece of the image, and then secondarily use the shape of the piece to find the exact right spot.
For example let’s say the puzzle’s picture is a photo of a car. And say currently I’m working on a red tail light. So I’ll sort through the pile looking for pieces that are red with a plasticy-looking texture. Then after i found one I’ll look for smaller image details to find the general area within the tail light around where the piece should go. And only then do i start looking at the shape of the pieces to see where the roundy out and in bits would fit into each other.
Is that not what you do?
How are you at doing jigsaw puzzles? The person i know is incapable of doing them
A petabyte is 1000 terabytes. There are commercial hard drives that are over 30 tb. So 33 of these drives hold 1 pb. Times ten makes 330 hard drives to hold 10 pb. All of those drives together would take up just one third of a single full height server rack like this.

So not only wouldn’t it need a whole data center, in fact it wouldn’t even need a whole server room, and actually wouldn’t even need a whole server closet!
I calculated this all out only because I’m procrastinating😆
Yup, they basically can’t imagine any sensation. Not sight, not sound, nothing. Yet they’re a capable and successful person. I have no idea what the experience is like in their head
Y’know how some people can’t visualize images in their head? I know someone that can’t imagine tasting things
In the Organic Maps app just tap the button with 3 lines (≡) in the lower right corner, then tap “add place”. To update info on a thing that already exists just tap on that thing and then tap “edit place” at the bottom of the page.
