It seems a coke-sized can, requires only 13mg of this protein, compared to 200mg of aspartame.
If brands see that increasing the amount also increase sales without increasing the risk - they're likely to do that - which could numb the sweetness of anything else.
These are both very small amounts of a substance, relative to the size of a Coke can. I think if Coke wanted a sweeter formula, bumping up to 250-300mg of aspartame or using a blend of existing additives or something would not be a problem for them.
Given how sensitive consumers are to changes in its taste, I think the overriding concern for Coke would be not changing the flavor of the formula.
If what you say is true, wouldn't we already be seeing incredibly sweet things being sold? I don't see why companies would hold back from producing very sweet products with high sugar content; they do so already.
I'm not sure anyone's clamoring for sweeter drinks. Non-diet drinks like Coke have an established recipe, and diet sodas approximate the same balance of flavors.
I think there is some level of hardwiring limiting the palatability of sweetness, at least in some people.
Anecdotally, even as a kid, I found Skittles to be unpleasantly sweet. To this day, I avoid most sweet soda drinks and seldom drink even those I can tolerate.
It is not discipline for me. It is not even taste. It is tolerance.
This sounds fun. Rust is amazing, and I've been playing with it on AVR chips lately. And I spent several summers sailing years ago. Email me if you'd like. Curious to know what you're working on.
Nice! Let me know about this project.
I'm not a dev, just a sysadmin from old school always wanting to learn more stuff. I was teaching robotics for kids and teachers also.
Awesome! Are you doing anything that has loitering capabilities in an area? Something that's always bothered me is illegal fishing off the coasts of poor countries that can't afford to effectively monitor their own waters and I have been thinking about ways to tackle this (e.g. a system of buoys with sensor arrays that ping the coast guard/navy if they detect a ship without their AIS system on).
Hey I have experience with robotics (ROS1, trying to work on projects using ROS2 now) and autonomous vehicles (mainly Motion Planning & Control and decision making in uncertainties). What are you working on?
I don't think a god of something exists. If it does, I don't care. It might, though.
What's more important to me: life emerged from chaos, entropy will get us all, let's give this opportunity all we've got. If we don't, it's fine too - there is no game plan I am aware of so we can make our own.
Yes, after piping them through rust-bindgen, any binary can be statically of dynamically linked. I did this, it's nice that it's possible, but the PAC route others have described here is way better.
1) this is the same problem like controlling the angle of a quad copter, for which I have used PID. You can calculate the error of the position, which is in the range -180..179. Applying one PID stage to the error of the orientation yields a "desired rate of change" - it increases if the error is large or held for a long time and it's sign describes the direction of the rate of change of orientation. You can use another PID stage to give a step count power iteration (how much to turn the object).
2) integral windup is commonly prevented by just capping it. You can also use a smoother capping function which bounds the size of the integral, or lowers it on each iteration.
Capping and/or gradually lowering the the integral part seems like an elegant solution. Thanks for your input! This is something which is never told but should be part of every PID controller resource on the web.
An alternative to capping is to avoid adding anything to the integral term in situations where the actuator is already at 0% or 100% of the possible range.
