In a space like that? What spares do you take? It might not be that problem you have a spare for.

The constant is the sun position, so that feature is reflected all over the globe.

But built to a price, probably not adequate for a mission as critical as that. The price you pay in high-end mission critical equipment is the testing of the individual products. ie The test sampling rate on the production would be much higher than a shop bought controller.- What does 'emergent' mean in a physics context (split from Information Paradox)
I appreciate your input. As you say, it is slippery. Would you say Emergence was conceived to fix a problem?- What does 'emergent' mean in a physics context (split from Information Paradox)
I don't think it's that hard, but I'm used to it. Quite simply, one person can't do a Mexican wave, or any other wave because it's a collective property. Does the Mexican Wave exist in the absence of an observer, is what gets me thinking.- On the lab leak theory
Am I right in thinking there's nothing sinister about this, just a cock up in the containment protocols at Wuhan? Also, does it just appear to be a normal Chinese science project with some US funding that went wrong in releasing the virus? Is the wet market theory discredited now?- OceanGate Submersible Goes Missing During Titanic Dive
Another thing is that it has a limited life in fishing due to uv degradation. The speed at which a rod recovers from being bent slows down over time. In fishing parlance it's called 'recovery time'. It basically goes from springy to floppy over time.- Camouflage examples
Could the white underside be to retain heat, as it's more reflective?- OceanGate Submersible Goes Missing During Titanic Dive
I feelthat carbon fibre stays in conformation until there's an asymmetric load on the hull, like bumping into something. I thought carbon fibre had super tensility, but crush resistance was weak? Broke too many fishing rods myself. Failure is instant.- Camouflage examples
Not far off I think. Movement is the primary stimulus for detection though. Predators and prey have high contrast vision to improve acuity.

Do you think it's a ten hour round trip, including Titanic search time? 10 hours there and back is the likely dive aim?- What does 'emergent' mean in a physics context (split from Information Paradox)
But you understand why it's not discoverable. I think it's early days for emergentism discovery.- What does 'emergent' mean in a physics context (split from Information Paradox)
Position and momentum is, in principle, discoverable? I interpret that as a discovery roadblock.- OceanGate Submersible Goes Missing During Titanic Dive
The descent takes 4-5 hours to Titanic. They imploded 1 hour 45 minutes from the start. What do any of you with knowledge think was the likely depth range?- What does 'emergent' mean in a physics context (split from Information Paradox)
I'm seeing it as a limit to what one can know. It's ironic, the scepticism, when physicists embrace the uncertainty preinciple. What use it is it Nothing. It just says: "You can't go there." Physical limits are endemic. Emergentism, may be one of those things. Having said that: Ludditism does occur.- What does 'emergent' mean in a physics context (split from Information Paradox)
I think you have a strong interest in biological phenomena, so you aren't disturbed by it. It is pretty normal for biological experts to invoke it, so there's that.- Physical Revue says "Whiteboards are Racist"
Your narcissism is palpable.- OceanGate Submersible Goes Missing During Titanic Dive
Wales · Area Total: 20,779 km (8,023 sq mi)- OceanGate Submersible Goes Missing During Titanic Dive
Apparently, it had 7 methods to surface. My friend said this morning that the Titanic wreck is spread over an area the size Wales. That's why it's so hard to locate them.- What does 'emergent' mean in a physics context (split from Information Paradox)
It's just that she was saying that weak emergence is evident, but strong emergence is not, in the science view. At the end of the day, if didn't doesn't mean anything to you, that's fine. Cheers.- The instinct of reality is distorted by current physics
It should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler - Einstein.- The instinct of reality is distorted by current physics
