Translated cycler Turing machine Updated +Created
Like a cycler, but the cycle starts at an offset.
To see infinity, we check that if the machine only goes left N squares until reaching the repetition, then repetition must only be N squares long.

Spark-gap transmitter Updated +Created
The first type of device that allowed sending Morse code without wires, as opposed to the wired electrical telegraph that previously existed.
Naval communications was one of the first major applications, as you can't have wires on boats!
Wireless voice transmission came about with modulation.

Superconducting quantum computer need non-linear components Updated +Created
Non-linearity is needed otherwise the input energy would just make the state go to higher and higher energy levels, e.g. from 1 to 2. But we only want to use levels 0 and 1.
The way this is modelled in by starting from a pure LC circuit, which is an harmonic oscillator, see also quantum LC circuit, and then replacing the linear inductor with a SQUID device, e.g. mentioned at: youtu.be/eZJjQGu85Ps?t=1655 Video "Superconducting Qubits I Part 1 by Zlatko Minev (2020)".
SVG 1.0 Updated +Created
SVG fonts Updated +Created
The major problem with SVG is text computer fonts. If you make an image with text that depends on one computer font and it is not present in the viewer's machine, it will use some other font, which may overlap with other elements of the image. Some libraries Matplotlib solve this by writing characters as curves, but this produces large files and unsearchable text. The inability of different computer platforms to standardize fonts that must always be present is a major issue.

Aegisub Updated +Created
This worked well on 3.2.2 Ubuntu 20.10. Recommended.
First import video with:
aegisub-3.2 ourbigbook-parent.mkv
They don't have an aegisub executable without the version number. Amazing.
If you already have a subtitle file that you want to edit, then just pass it on as well:
aegisub-3.2 ourbigbook-parent.mkv ourbigbook-parent.ass
Ctrl + P: play and pause video.
Ctrl + 3: set current substitle start time.
Ctrl + 4: set current substitle end time.
Enter: finish editing the current entry and start a new one.
