True. and if you know what you're building, and don't explicitly say you're trying to "hack" something, you could easily build what you're looking to build. for now.
Not better IMO but I can appreciate the attempt. Seems messier than the real thing. The icons don't really do anything to help. Takes more time to read.
Theirs probably isn't silent, but you certainly could figure out how to make this very quiet and gentle sounding, building tension in a spring between strokes with some kind of silent linear actuator
This is intriguing and I assume the mechanical and balance (force distribution) have been addressed with strange, extremely light but strong materials. I think it's the parent comment, but someone mentioned Dyson fans, criticizing them as junk. I haven't owned one due to cost, but have been impressed with air/noise ratio.
I once knew a rogue architect who rode a bicycle, wore broken glasses mended with tape and lived in a home in south Florida (warm humid summers). He had dug trenches beneath his house, which he explained were for air circulation intended to work in harmony with interior modifications which I can't remember.
Unfortunately the city condemned and demolished his house. But I've been intrigued by solid state cooling methods since. The Japanese fan, though of questionable mechanical efficiency, ispires me as an example of easily overlooked but formidable design. Neat!
> which he explained were for air circulation intended to work in harmony with interior modifications which I can't remember.
That's intriguing. Along those lines, I've also been interested in the idea of using pressure sensors and anemomenters to automatically open/close different windows in my house to create optimal airflow. Unfortunately the house I'm in is 100 years old, so for now it's just a daydream.
That seems a pretty... cool idea. I love old houses and would rather live in 100yo cracker house than the finest mansion on the planet. I know it can be a lot of work though.
I wish you a meantime epiphany that fits if the master plan won't do.
What does 'preaching violence' mean to you? Because to some people, simply supporting the talking points of the political party they don't like counts as violence.
Your comment HERE could even be interpreted by some as preaching for violence - because you're implying that there's a line you can cross where the opinions you share justify your death.
France is particularly full of these kinds of sites, mostly having to do with their nuclear deterrent. If you want to see the interesting vertical silo storage they use for their SLBMs near the loading pier, you're best off using Yandex.
> I’m curious about the legal/reputational implications of this.
The comments and headlines will be a bit snarkier, more likely to go viral - more likely to go national on a light news day, along with the human interest portion of not getting paid which everyone can relate to.
I guess I mean the legal risks to both sides. Security is only a portion of what I do and I only dabble in red teaming (this is the first time I ever tried it on a third party).
So I legitimately don’t know what the legalities of writing a “here’s how I hacked HypeCo” article are if you don’t have the express approval to write that article from HypeCo. Though in my case the company did have an established, public disclosure program that told people they wouldn’t prosecute people who follow responsible disclosure. TFA seems even murkier because Burger King never said they wouldn’t press charges under the CFAA…
Best case scenario is it's used to identify unknown remains, or help locate a murder suspect who's probably distantly related to you (i.e. a 5th cousin you never met). More of these samples makes it harder for serial killers to stay hidden for too long.
