A Sonic Boom

Explanation:
Is this what a sonic boom looks like? When an airplane travels at a speed faster than sound, density waves of sound emitted by the plane cannot precede the plane, and so accumulate in a cone behind the plane. When this shock wave passes, a listener hears all at once the sound emitted over a longer period: a sonic boom. As a plane accelerates to just break the sound barrier, however, an unusual cloud might form. The origin of this cloud is still debated. A leading theory is that a drop in air pressure at the plane described by the Prandtl-Glauert Singularity occurs so that moist air condenses there to form water droplets. Above, an F/A-18 Hornet was photographed just as it broke the sound barrier. Large meteors and the space shuttle frequently produce audible sonic booms before they are slowed below sound speed by the Earth's atmosphere.

Questions also remain for the biggest AI startups such as OpenAI. Despite raising a total of $64 billion since it was founded in 2015, most notably $40 billion in March, the largest private #tech funding round on record, it needs more money. »

Futurism · Investors Are Suddenly Pulling Out of AIBy Joe Wilkins

A few months ago, Amazon announced that Kindle users would no longer be able to download and back up their book libraries to their computers. Thankfully, I still have access to my library because I saw this video by Jared Henderson warning of the change and downloaded all ~400 of my books immediately.

Adiós Clear Linux. Intel termina Clear Linux, su distro Linux propia optimizada para hardware Intel. Fue conocida por su rendimiento impresionante gracias a sus optimizaciones agresivas. Usuarios actuales deben migrar, lo que será complicado. Esto podría reducir la innovación en Linux, ya que Intel ya no tendrá un proyecto propio para experimentar. Esperemos que la comunidad le dé seguimiento, como hicieron con Ubuntu Touch.
