总结内容

这是一个使用 Rust 语言实现的 二维布料 Verlet 模拟项目。其核心功能是通过 Verlet 积分算法来模拟布料的物理行为,这是一种常用于实时物理模拟的数值方法,尤其适用于处理由质点与弹簧连接构成的系统(如布料)。项目专注于创建一个 2D 环境下的布料动力学演示,展示了如何运用 Rust 的性能与安全性来构建物理模拟应用。

8. Your phone isn't secretly listening to you, but the truth is more disturbing (newatlas.com)

Last year a longstanding conspiracy was reignited, telling the tale of how your smartphone is listening to your conversations and delivering targeted ads, but it still isn't true and the way you actually get your ads is much more unsettling.

11. The True Size Of (thetruesize.com)

The True Size 是一个免费的交互式网页地图工具,旨在演示并帮助用户直观理解墨卡托投影造成的地理面积失真问题。

核心功能与使用方式: 用户可以通过简单的拖放和旋转操作,在世界地图上移动国家、州、省和地区,以比较它们的真实相对大小。具体操作是:在搜索框中输入一个地理区域名称,然后将其拖动到地图上的任意位置。此时,该区域的轮廓会自动调整大小,以反映其在所选纬度上的实际面积。用户可以添加多个区域进行并排对比。

工具的目的与价值: 该工具的主要目的是教育性的,旨在揭示一个常见的认知误区。例如,在标准的墨卡托投影地图上,格陵兰岛看起来与非洲大陆大小相近,但实际情况是非洲的面积是格陵兰岛的约14.5倍(非洲11.6百万平方英里,格陵兰岛0.8百万平方英里)。通过这个工具,用户能直观地看到这种巨大的差异是如何被传统地图掩盖的。

技术背景: 工具基于墨卡托投影(由Gerardus Mercator于1569年创建)的特性。这种投影在保持角度和形状的同时,显著扭曲了高纬度地区的物体尺寸,越靠近两极,面积失真越严重。该项目正是为了可视化并纠正这种失真而设计的。

33. Apparently Bluesky has one centralized service, the "relay" (mastodon.online)

Apparently #Bluesky has one centralized service, the "relay", which did not go down, but it has distributed its users across multiple PDSs (and users can roll their own PDS). The idea is that any individual PDS can go down and so long as the relay keeps working all the other users are OK.

But, ALL of the company's PDSs went down. 🤔

We are being told that a DDOS attack targeted ALL of #Bluesky's PDSs and they all went down simultaneously. Suppose this is possible, but it does seem odd.
