  • I read somewhere that they have some rule like you can’t put “not food” inside “food”.

    Probably a reasonable rule in many cases. Maybe they should put a tiny hole in it and argue that the “shell” is mathematically a single plane with the ‘inside’ being between the inner and outer face.








  • I don’t think magic is objective; I think it is in the eye of the beholder.

    If the audience don’t understand it, or can be distracted from seeing the truth of it, it’s magic or a miracle or whatever to them. And the magician - if they know what they’re doing - can wield power over the rubes.

    So before you understand - say, magnetism - better, lodestones can be seen as magical or heaven-sent.

    There’ll be physical phenomena today like ‘spooky action at a distance’ or something where even quite learned observers might not 100% know the laws of physics. Some exploit of that can appear as magical until the laws are figured out and well communicated.

    If it turns out that the underlying laws are stochastic rather than deterministic, then there’s always going to be some grey areas i think.


  • I’ve experienced random stuff like that in past - not exactly the same though and not that chip.

    I’d suspect power issue, either cpu and/or gpu causing a spike that results in some voltage rail to go unstable. More likely GPU, unless your applications are really thrashing all cpu cores.

    How old PSU? how much headroom? how good brand of PSU? Might also be a motherboard power management issue.

    Also - it might not hurt just to unplug and reseat every power cable.





  • I’m sure i read that some places prohibit treated timber going into ground if the chemicals might leech into water courses - New Zealand maybe??

    Very oily wood like Cedar should last ok , but not forever.

    Plywood, I’d be very skeptical about - generally the cheap stuff has no chance if it gets wet. Maybe there’s expensive magical stuff that i can’t afford.

    PVC as suggested or stainless steel ground anchor or concrete fence posts would seem better.

    You could consider trying to bury chicken wire if you need to keep out the burrowing creatures.

    MS is who they choose - I think its all bundled in with windows and azure and dynamics and office and that stuff. I think MS is trying to use their B2B OS deals to get some market share from AWS, so they’re probably offering cheap deals for now.

    MS doesn’t allow 3rd party 2FA. They created a proprietary algorithm so no other apps can do it.
