learning c++ and c# and how to use unity and meteorology and writing a climate sim of sorts. eventual goal is to be able to interactively modify the global heightmap and have the climate (calculated on the GPU) react instantly.

right now all ive got is a model of ferrel cells n monsoon rains. loooong way to go

i mean obviously reading stuff's worthwhile (just got my smart dog book) but i forget all that poo poo if i don't use it

this really got on my nerves as a undergrad, because i used to burn whole weeks on poo poo like Concrete Mathematics or misner, wheeler & thorne or artin's Algebra, for funsies. then three months later id have forgotten it all, despite having done all the fukkin exercises.

came up with a solution in senior year:

http://ankisrs.net

every bit of information i read in senior year went on an anki flashcard. there were like 3,000 of them by the end, and id sit down every night and pile through the ones it said i hadn't seen in a while (usually less than 50 'cause of the exponential falloff associated w/ recall).

owned my finals thanks to it, but unfortunately i stopped last october b/c i was crazy-busy. mistake. i've forgotten it all :( started again this week though, and The Algorithm Design Manual is now being digested into bitesize chunks

Q: Are UAVs legal in the Canada?
A: Unmanned Aerial vehicles are permitted to fly in Canada when they meet "Model aircraft" conditions set out in the Canadian Aviation Regulations or the operator has a Special Flight Operations Certificate(SFOC).

Q: What makes a UAV a model aircraft in the eyes of Transport Canada(TC)?
A: "Model aircraft" means an aircraft, the total weight of which does not exceed 35 kg (77.2 pounds), that is mechanically driven or launched into flight for recreational purposes. By definition a UAV is no longer a model aircraft when:
- Owned by a company not an individual.
-Used for profit.

how was the military ok with that

they weren't

the frequencies it was originally supposed to use was close enough to the GPS frequencies that one system couldn't be jammed without jamming the other. so the US had a hissy fit and said that if Galileo was ever used to guide munitions against the US, they'd respond by shooting all the satellites down.

so now Galileo's on a different, possibly less accurate, set of frequencies. ooh-rah.

What stops them from using gps to shopt rockits to the us? Will they just toggle "encryption on" and all non-military gps devices just stop working?

well until ten years, civilian GPS signals were purposefully degraded by the US military so they'd only be accurate to a hundred meters or so. in 2000 though the system was upgraded so that the military could block the signal over any geographic area they cared to, and the degradation system (called Selective Availability) was turned off.

Ana5000 posted:

And what's stopping them from adding a camera and image recognition software for the missile to periodically literally look where it's going?

they do. most any weapon that uses GPS also has inertial navigation or celestial navigation or terrain-following instruments, b/c the assumption is that in the event of a major war, GPS isn't gonna be around for long. thing is that those instruments are all really fukkin hard to design + build, while a GPS circuit a couple of dollars from ebay.

jonny, pls tell me that you were as naive as i was before you built raspberry high...

this is a great thing you're doing, jumping in at the deep end. you'll learn an unbelievable amount if you stick with it, but it's going to take a while and you can't hope to do it all in one go.

what you need to do is come up with some subproblems that will be easier to solve. that'll stop you from burning out. in this case, they could be things like
  • setting some simple circuits up in an electronics simulator
  • getting an arduino board up and flashin' its LED
  • measuring the temperature of the water w/ the arduino board
  • turning a mains-voltage lightbulb on + off w/ the arduino board
  • dimming a mains-voltage lightbulb w/ the arduino board
  • learnin' a lil python
  • implementing a PID on the arduino

what you definitely shouldn't do is worry about all these things at once. come up with a list of two or three small subproblems, and forget about everything that doesn't contribute to solving those problems. you can come back and make a full design later on, and it'll be a much better design for all that you've learnt from the subproblems.

example: for my climate sim, my early subproblems are
  • read a book on weather + climate. identify some simple climate patterns to make a hack at.
  • read a book on C#, solve a few project euler problems in it
  • install Unity and run through some tutorials
  • get Unity to display a blue sphere (using the C#)
  • get Unity to display some pre-calculated "wind arrows" on the blue sphere
  • write a single-threaded two-dimensional slow-as-poo poo fluid dynamics solver (using C#)
  • combine all of the above to simulate the wind on a flat, rotating planet
  • get disproportionately giddy about my miserable achievements

it's supposed to detect when the distance is less than (r1+r2) and then apply a force to each based on their velocities and masses

but i'm getting some weird negative numbers in a place that should only have positive numbers (i.e. under a square root) and i don't know if it's because i hosed up somewhere or because floating point handling in python is apparently lovely

this would be a lot easier if i just said that both balls have the same mass and made the system symmetrical but that's kind of boring

yeah i'm not understanding that equation either, but it looks like the slowing down might be caused by the accleration being applied in the wrong direction?

like if your acceleration is +1 in the x-direction, or whatever, and your speed is 5, then the speed would become 6

but then if you bounce off a wall or something so your speed is -5, then the speed would become -4 if you just added an acceleration onto it, which then actually slows it down

i dunno though i'd have to see more of the code

anyway i managed to get my collision thing working so that it doesn't sometimes randomly vastly increase the speed of one of the balls (and crash the program), and also so that multiple balls could all collide with each other and be gravitationally attracted to each other



so now they clump together which is kind of cool (i put in a bit of friction too so the energy would dissipate)

see if you can simulate the Theia impact :v:

for the rebound thing, how about modelling it as an inelastic collision, then just choosing a random coefficient of restitution (within a range) each time?

coriolis acceleration should only take a moment to implement, if you're interested: taking the x axis to be pointing east and the y axis to be pointing north, you want a point with velocity (u,v) to experience an acceleration

4*Pi*R*sin(L)/T (v, -u)

R is the radius of the planet
T is the length of its day
