![]() Kirkpatrick recently earned significant new time on JWST to carry out a larger survey of the Extended Groth Strip field with MIRI. Ultimately, this knowledge will help constrain and measure black hole masses, shedding light on the origins of black holes growing, which remain an unanswered question.” If most galaxies, like ours, lack detectable AGN, it could imply that our black hole was never more active in the past. ![]() “One significant question regarding the Milky Way is whether it was ever active or went through an AGN phase. “Our black hole seems quite uneventful, not displaying much activity,” she said. I had assumed that lower mass galaxies would also contain substantial amounts of dust, but they did not, defying my expectations and offering another intriguing discovery.”Īccording to Kirkpatrick, the work changes understanding of how galaxies grow, particularly concerning the Milky Way. “Typically, the most massive galaxies have abundant dust due to their rapid star formation rates. “By using JWST, we can identify much smaller galaxies than ever before, including those the size of the Milky Way or even smaller, which was previously impossible at these redshifts (cosmic distances),” Kirkpatrick said. “This discovery opens up a whole new perspective on black-hole growth since our current understanding is largely based on the most massive black holes in the biggest galaxies, which have significant effects on their hosts, but the smaller black holes in these galaxies likely do not.”Īnother surprising outcome was the lack of dust in these galaxies, said the KU astronomer. ![]() “The study's findings suggest that these black holes are not growing rapidly, absorbing limited material, and perhaps not significantly impacting their host galaxies,” she said. Kirkpatrick said an important mystery in astronomy lies in understanding how typical supermassive black holes, such as those found in galaxies like the Milky Way, grow and influence their host galaxy. Earlier observations using Spitzer only allowed us to study the brightest and most massive galaxies with rapidly growing supermassive black holes, making them easy to detect.” As it turns out, these black holes are likely growing at a slower pace than previously believed, which is intriguing, considering the galaxies I examined resemble our Milky Way from the past. This finding was prompting questions about the whereabouts of these objects. “One significant revelation was the scarcity of rapidly growing supermassive black holes. “The results looked completely different from what I had anticipated, leading to my first major surprise,” Kirkpatrick said. ![]() However, even with MIRI’s boost in power and sensitivity, few additional AGN were found in the new survey. Kirkpatrick and many fellow astrophysicists anticipated that the higher-resolution JWST survey would locate many more AGN than a previous survey, conducted with the Spitzer Space Telescope. While every galaxy features a supermassive black hole at the middle, AGN are more spectacular upheavals actively drawing in gases and showing a luminosity absent from typical black holes. So I carried out the first survey to search for these lurking, supermassive black holes at the centers of these galaxies.” We used the mid-infrared instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope to look at dust in galaxies that are existing 10 billion years in the past, and that dust can hide ongoing star formation, and it can hide growing supermassive black holes. “This is a look back in time of 7 to 10 billion years in the past. “Our observations were taken in last June and December, and we were aiming to characterize how galaxies looked during the heyday of star formation in the universe,” Kirkpatrick said. But previous examinations of the area relied on a less powerful generation of space telescopes. The work, headed by Allison Kirkpatrick, assistant professor of physics & astronomy at KU, focused on a long-studied zone of cosmos dubbed the Extended Groth Strip, located between the Ursa Major and Boötes constellations. The work also gives insights into observations of faint galaxies, their properties and challenges in identifying AGN.Ī new paper detailing the JWST research, conducted under auspices of the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) program, was made available today on arXiv in advance of formal peer review publication in The Astrophysical Journal. The findings, made with the JWST’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI), suggest our universe may be a bit more stable than was supposed. LAWRENCE - A University of Kansas survey of a swath of the cosmos using the James Webb Space Telescope has revealed active galactic nuclei - supermassive black holes that are rapidly increasing in size - are rarer than many astronomers had assumed previously.

![]() He might look like an asshole to some people now but when you think of 5 years from now building a media company that is known for being 100% fair and balanced, it's best to stop the hardcore Trump stuff because in the end it goes against what he wants to achieve.Īdam is still working with Tim in his building and doing his thing. I'd imagine Tim told Adam to tone it down, be more neutral and maybe even quit the MAGA beanie. Unless you've experienced working closely with a friend you won't understand it. You both want success and care about the company just as much but the difference of opinion causes shit. I once worked for a friend with a company and it didn't end good. ![]() He talked to Adam about the Trump stuff and Adam is just his own person with his own thoughts. But it's going to hurt him as he starts building the company he wants. His daily segments point out many media lies and bias. With Adam there Tim is starting to be associated with heavily being a fan of a political party instead of a completely neutral party that looks at facts. As mentioned Tim wants to do fact checking and create a media company that truly has no side and only looks at facts. Tim personally has zero issue with it but from a business perspective it is not what he wants. Watching IRL Adam made it very heavily a Trump endorsement show. ![]() But because of the state of the Dem party he is leaning towards voting for Trump to send a message and hopefully in 4 years they smarten up and come to their senses.Īdam turned into a huge Trump supporter. If democrats had a sensible candidate he would vote for them in a second. He has made it clear he does not like Trump.

Use the background color for the text color, and the text color for the background. Put the cursor back to where you saved it. Make the text dark (however your terminal does that).

For example, ignore the ANSI sequences in computing length. Routines for dealing with text that contains ANSI code. I want to emit the sequence in a stream without knowing what's coming up. There are several modules that come close to this, but so far everything is incomplete or requires you to know all of the upcoming text ahead of time so you can use of it as an argument to a function. You can emit these without knowing what's coming up. Subroutines to deal with ANSI terminal sequences. ![]() Print bold, underline, text_red, "Hello", reset DESCRIPTION For instance, the TECO editor would display a dollar sign to the user each time the ESC was pressed, as it used this for a command separator the same way one might use a semicolon in coding today.Antsy - Streaming ANSI escape sequences SYNOPSIS use Antsy qw(:all) The third solution to the problem was to simply have the host ignore special function keys altogether and take the incoming byte stream as literal. e.g., use ESC Space to force the escape through, the ESC cancels one prompt, but the space unintendedly acknowledges the next. The problem is sometimes those characters caused side effects to an application, nasty ones, and interesting cases could arrive where trying to naively fake out the system could get you into trouble. Of course, an 'invalid' ESC sequence meant the ESC was literal, but this required seeing what the following bytes were before you could act on them (hence the timeout solution). Only years later did we start emulating terminals and thus rose the need to emulate their escape sequences rather than taking the behaviors out of the content stream. Remember, in the days of serial ports, which was when these terminals were in use, when a character was pressed, it was sent immediately. It exactly the same thing we do when quoting backslash characters in strings, a "\" really means a "\" because we have to satisfy the compiler's lexical phase. As no escape sequence ever consisted of a double escape character, it signaled a special condition. Two, require the user to press ESC twice for every literal ESC desired. And, working under the assumption that a terminal would send a block of characters in its buffer immediately, it would internally time out and take ESC to mean just ESC. The host would have the responsibility of watching not just what came in, but when. One, send the ESC and then delay for some amount. This then left the very real problem of how to send a literal orphaned ESC. When you pressed a function key, the terminal would send an ESC character followed by some pre-canned sequence for a function key, arrow, or action. In theory the server should never throw you a meaningless orphaned ESC character as the terminal would sit there and wait for a sequence. ESC [ 12 34 H would go to row 12, column 34. Even ESC [ row col H would take a numerical row/col, e.g. Switch the J to a K, and now it would clear the line, rather than the screen, the same way. The '2' in the ESC [ 2 J meant both from the cursor to the top (zero), and from the cursor to the end (one). What was really going on was that the open square bracket (there was no close bracket) said that a list of arguments, usually numeric, was coming. The VT-100 series used ESC [ H for home, and ESC [ 2 J for clear to end of screen. ESC # 6 to double-width characters.įor instance on a H-19 / VT-52 terminal, ESC H meant home, ESC E meant clear screen and home, ESC J meant clear to end of screen, etc. In general the rule was to swallow the incoming characters until an alphabetic or symbolic character was seen, inclusively, although some special cases such as symbols which might grab one additional character, e.g. This usually put the terminal into a simple state machine. The escape character, ASCII 27, was used to indicate that the following sequences of characters had special meaning. There is no such thing as an "escape sequence" for the ESC key on a VT-100 (or other terminals that used escape sequences). When the exception is raised and each time it is continued extra information can be added to the exception trace. It is caught and handled (or the program terminates with an error message)Įach time the exception is caught the trace so far can be examined.In a GUI program there is also a default hander in the GUI event loop which will catch exceptions arising from the handling of an event.Īll in all, the lifecycle of an exception is as follows: mainExe :: run setup such a handler in a console program this is the fall-back handler. Therefore programs normally setup an outermost default exception handler. The TraceId variable that is bound in the try-catch construction gives access information about the entire trace (hence the name).Īs mentioned above the program will terminate with an error message, if an exception is raised and no handler can be found. The exception information describes a trace from the point of raise through all the handlers. If it has been continued by several handlers it will contain a lot of continue information in addition to the original exception information. When an exception is continued it consists of the original exception plus some continue information. In this case the best thing the handler code can do is to continue the exception as an unknown exception (i.e. Especially, it may be an exception that the handler does not know how to handle. If it is another kind of exception the handler will have to do something different. So for the "write-protected" exception the handler code should write a message to the user. The result of the handler code will be the result of the try-catch construction, and thus of saveInfo.the code between do and end try) is evaluated TraceId will be bound to the (so called) trace id, which is a handle to information about the exception (described in more details below).The code works like this: writeInfo is called, if it succeeds the try-catch construction will not do more and saveInfo will also succeed.īut in the write-protected case outputStream_file :: create will raise an exception and therefore the following will take place: WriteInfo ( Filename ) catch TraceId do % > end try. To set a handler we use the try-catch language construction: But from the program's point of view the exceptional situation is handled. The user can choose a different filename, remove the write protection, delete the file, cancel the operation entirely or something else. So the handling we want is simply to tell the user that the information was not written because the file was write-protected. ![]() ![]() In this case writeInfo is called after the user have entered the file name in a dialog and pressed a Save-button. When an exception is raised the program control is transferred to the nearest exception handler, which can hopefully handle the situation and thus bring the program back on track again. ![]() In outputStream_file :: create this situation is considered to be exceptional/unexpected and therefore it raises an exception. WriteInfo ( Filename ) :- S = outputStream_file :: create ( Filename ) ,īut if the file already exists and is write-protected it is impossible to create the stream. ![]() Next, open the application by clicking the Microsoft Remote Desktop icon within the Applications folder, or by activating Launchpad and clicking its red-and-white icon.

Once powered on, the unit will need to be configured. Power on the device by holding down the circle "Confirm" button. The steps to add Wi-Fi for these terminals are all identical, the only difference is the screen size and button placements. The serial number (for pairing) is on the base of the terminal. Once this screen appears, the terminal is boarded, connected and ready to go - it just needs to be paired to your POS. This can take quite a while (up to 20 minutes) and it may reboot a few times during this process. The system will then pull down various updates. Once completed, your terminal will confirm it's assigned store. Once the system shows it is connected to your Wi-Fi, hit the back arrow on the bottom left corner of the screen Note: If this is not the first time you've booted the terminal (and you need to change Wifi networks) go to Settings -> Network -> 5773 -> Wifi and then select your Wifi network. Simply select the same network your iPad uses and enter your Wi-Fi password. Upon first boot, the terminal will prompt you to connect to your Wi-Fi network.

This 'load temperature' is more important than idle temperatures (assuming idle temps are fine), so you'll want to periodically monitor your CPU temperature under load to ensure it's adequately cooled. Under higher load, such as when playing a game, rendering a video, or other intensive tasks, your CPU consumes more power and, thus, runs at a higher temperature. When the CPU is idle, a good temperature is anything under or around 50C. Again, only use this as an indication of idle CPU temperatures - you should also check from within Windows 10 or Windows 11 to get a better idea of CPU temperatures when you're using the PC (see below). Once you're in the BIOS, you will see the temperature listed in the Hardware Monitor section, which can also be named PC Health Status or Status, among other similar names. Not all motherboards list the CPU temperature in the BIOS, but nearly all enthusiast or DIY motherboards do. On most platforms, you simply reboot the system and click delete or F2 repeatedly as it restarts. It's pretty simple to enter the BIOS to check your CPU temperature. ![]() That means you will see much higher temps when you are booted into Windows 10 or another operating system. You can check your CPU temperature in the system BIOS or UEFI, but be aware that this will only show your CPU temperature at idle. How to Check Your CPU Temperature in the BIOS Anything between 80C and 95C leaves room for improvement. You should be concerned if this figure is at or beyond 95C. The best way to check your CPU temperature while gaming is to game for an hour or more and then check the program to see the maximum recorded CPU temperature. ![]() Just be aware that this program puts an extremely heavy load on your PC, so you might encounter a blue screen of death (BSOD). However, if you want to measure the maximum possible temperature, you can check by running a Prime95 stress test for about 30 minutes ( download here) on Windows 10 or Windows 11. If you want to check your PC's CPU temperature during normal use, you can leave Core Temp running while you perform common tasks. So, for example, the CPU in the above image has had a minimum temperature of 32C and a maximum of 51C and is, therefore, running at a normal temperature. But we're more interested in the Min and Max columns, which show the absolute minimum and the absolute peak temperature recorded while the program runs. The left-hand side of the measurements shows the real-time temperature of each CPU core, and you can also see the measurements in the taskbar. Just be sure to untick the freeware option during installation.Ĭore Temp provides temperature measurements for every core in your CPU. ![]() This is a simpler tool that works with a more basic UI. You can also use the Core Temp tool, one of the best CPU temperature tools for Windows 11 and Windows 10, to monitor the temperatures ( download here). While CAM is intended to be used with NZXT's products, it works really well as a casual monitoring tool in Windows 11 or Windows 10, even if you don't have any NZXT hardware. You can use the software in Guest Mode to avoid creating a user account, and you can also disable the program from starting automatically with Windows if you don't plan on using it often. These are just a few examples of many, but we'll show you how NZXT's CAM and Core Temp work because our testing found that these two are the easiest to install and use. If you're overclocking your CPU and want more in-depth measurements, Intel's eXtreme Tuning Utility (XTU) and AMD's Ryzen Master software are designed by the chipmakers and also offer expansive options. ![]() There are multiple CPU temperature monitoring programs to choose from, with the best tools for checking CPU temperature, including Core Temp, NZXT's CAM, AIDA64, HWiINFO, or HWMonitor. How to Check Your CPU Temperature in Windows 10 and 11Ĭhecking your CPU temperature is as easy as installing and using monitoring software and then reading the output, and you can use the same techniques to check your CPU temperature in Windows 10 and Windows 11. ![]() ![]() So Ryan gamed the system: he got CBO to produce a report which looks to those who don’t actually read it like a validation of his numbers, when in fact he prevented any actual scoring of his proposals. No proposals were specified that would generate that path. Which would generate a further decline relative to GDP. That combination of other mandatory and discretionary spending was specified to decline from 12 percent of GDP in 2010 to about 6 percent in 2021 and then move in line with the GDP price deflator beginning in 2022, There were no specifications of particular revenue provisions that would generate that path. The path rises steadily from about 15 percent of GDP in 2010 to 19 percent in 2028 and remains at that level thereafter. In the Congressional Budget Office’s projections, deficits as a percent of GDP fall between 20 (from 8.6 percent of GDP to 4.0 percent), and then increase to 5.3 percent of GDP by 2030more than one-and-a-half times the average over the past 50 years. Congressional Budget Office: GOP Health Care Bill Could Leave 24M More Uninsured By 2026 Republicans plan to replace the Affordable Care Act would reduce the federal deficit, though, according to. The Congressional Budget Office has released a new analysis of the Democrats’ social safety net plan to see how much the bill would cost if a series of provisions were extended long. The path for revenues as a percentage of GDP was specified by Chairman Ryan’s staff. According to an analysis by the Congressional Budget Office, the Ryan plan would, by 2050, reduce federal spending to its lowest point, as a percentage of G.D.P., since 1951. Indeed, I think I detect a bit of discreet snark in what the CBO report actually did say. Ryan’s instructions - without expressing any view about whether these paths were plausible. Instead, they laid out the implications of revenue and spending paths that were just assumed per The Senate Democrats’ tax, climate and drug-price bill would reduce federal budget deficits by 102 billion over 10 years, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said. Remotely enough detail for a comprehensive assessment, and they didn’t do a partial of what was specified. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office weighed in on the Senate health care bill on Monday, saying that 22 million people would lose health coverage in the next 10 years under the Senates plan. Overall the proposal includes 5.8 trillion in spending cuts (relative to the Congressional Budget Office baseline) that are heavily offset by 4. And in particular, they haven’t grasped how Ryan has gamed the system.Īs I pointed out a few days ago, CBO did not score the policy provisions in the Ryan plan there wasn’t People who say things like that evidently haven’t read any of the actual CBO analyses the most informative is the first one (pdf). Some of this pushback takes the form of assertions that he must be serious, because the Congressional Budget Office scored his plan and found that it led to lower debt. There has, of course, been some pushback against my column pointing out that the Very Serious Paul Ryan ![]()
