Managed to snag a headshot in stream from @Venerabela today, and I decided to see how Calyo would look with a little bit of ram in their dragon shape. I think it's a pretty good look, don't you think? 😈 Sheephood is a spectrum and I am designed specifically to give out concussions
Calyo is smirking with bared teeth towards you, the viewer. Their canines are long and fangy, with a shorter and more robust muzzle than usual, and large ram's horns that curl around their ears. A little bit of sticky saliva drools from their lower lip.

I am being grammatically cheeky whilst writing a smol treatise about a different way to multiply polynomials that I think is better than FOIL 😇
Let's Talk About Positional Notation

In your earliest days of school, you learned how certain symbols represented discrete and countable numeric values. The symbol 3 represented having three of something to count, like the set of dots that make the ellipsis which improperly terminates this sentence...

You learned a whole set of these symbols: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Eventually, you learned that putting these symbols together represented larger quantities of things to count, like 10 represents having ten of something. Like how many fingers you have, assuming you haven't been born with an anatomical defect or a piece of machinery got to one or more of your digits before you read this treatise.

The attached screenshot is the symbol properties dialog for a circuit symbol in KiCAD. What I am thinking about doing is adding an extra "Alt Ref" field to the field name templates in the schematic editor that I can copy the descriptive label into, then change […] [Original post on rubber.social]
The Symbol Properties dialog in KiCAD is a very 1990s Windows lookin' m.f. with two tabs, but the one we care about is the General tab. At the top is a table listing the symbol's property fields. The default set of fields are currently shown: Reference, Value, Footprint, Datasheet, and Description.

The Reference field is an identifier that an electronics design application like KiCAD uses to internally track which symbols are which. The Description field can be used for a more verbose description of the component represented by the symbol.

There's some other properties in the bottom half of the dialog, but they don't really matter for this alt text.

GYEHEHEHEHEHE Oh I love, just LOVE, how cursed and Uncanny Valley this first pseudocode example is. 😈 It triggers both the Python side of me and the Javascript side of me at the same time and it makes me snicker deviously. cc @TheRealPomax
It is a sample of pseudo code from "A Primer on Bézier Curves" by Pomax.

It mixes and mish-mashes syntax from C-style languages and Python at the same time, such as defining a function with the "function" keyword and then using a colon at the end (Python uses the keyword "def" as in "define") with indentation for scoping instead of scoping braces. It also uses a C-style for loop, which Python does not have at all.

For exponentiation it uses the caret symbol instead of the much more common double-asterisk (some languages do not even have this operator and require the use of a "pow" function instead).

And for the factorial operation it uses the exclamation point (this is actual math notation!) instead of a factorial function call. You, the reader, will have to utilize a factorial function provided by your lang of choice, or implement one of your own if necessary.

I am INSTANTLY in love with this entire document after reading this paragraph. This is literally part of how my ADHD brain learns, is by engaging itself to understand when adapting a found solution into my own work!! 🤩 pomax.github.io/bezierinfo cc @TheRealPomax
An excerpt from "A Primer on Bézier Curves" by Pomax:

What language is all this example code in?

There are way too many programming languages to favour one of all others, soo all the example code in this Primer uses a form of pseudo-code that uses a syntax that's close enough to, but not actually, modern scripting languages like JS, Python, etc. That means you won't be able to copy-paste any of it without giving it any thought, but that's intentional: if you're reading this primer, presumably you want to learn, and you don't learn by copy-pasting. You learn by doing things yourself, making mistakes, and then fixing those mistakes. Now, of course, I didn't intentionally add errors in the example code just to trick you into making mistakes (that would be horrible!) but I did intentionally keep the code from favouring one programming language over another. Don't worry though, if you know even a single procedural programming language, you should be able to read the examples without any difficulties.

Watching Ryan Hall stream tonight's severe weather over TX,OK,KS,MO, and I wondered how easy it is to find the altitude of the radar beam as a function of tilt and distance from radar site. Law of sines to the rescue. :)
A bunch of notes on grid paper illustrating the problem of the altitude of a doppler radar beam as a function of distance from the radar (on the surface of earth) and radar tilt angleThe problem simplified down to a triangle with known and computable angles and known side length, solved by law of sines: the ratio of the sine of each angle to its respective opposing side is the same for all three pairs.The solution: the altitude of the radar beam angle is the ratio of the sine of a right angle plus the radar tilt to the sine of a right angle minus the sum of the radar tilt and the distance (d over BIG R to scale it properly to a unit circle), that ratio minus one all multiplied by the radius of earth.

The Categorical risk shows a level 3 out of 5, meaning severe weather is probable, spanning from southwestern edge of iowa across north & central illinois, north & central indiana, most of ohio, and southern michigan.

A level 4 out of 5, meaning severe weather is likely, spanning from west-central illinois across northern indiana and poking into western ohioThe tornado risk outlook shows a 2% risk spanning from southwestern iowa across north & central illinois, north & central indiana, almost all of ohio, far western pennsylvania, and southern michigan

Wanna see something cool??? That gap in this doppler radar velocity product is called ✨ range folding ✨ and occurs when reflected pulses return at roughly a full period phase shift. The radar cannot determine the radial velocity of targets in this band. The […] [Original post on rubber.social]
A screenshot from Weather Wise showing the red-and-green shaded velocity product, which tells the viewer the radial velocity (inbound vs. outbound) of detected targets relative to the radar's position.

There is a circular band of no data surrounding the radar at a long distance from the radar. This band is range folded data, which means the return pulses came back at roughly a full period phase shift, which prevents the radar from determining the radial velocity of detected targets at that exact range.
