More than eleven years ago, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) lost a $125 million Mars orbiter spacecraft due to a metric math mistake. The accident took place in September of 1999, after almost 10 months of travel to Mars. The Mars Climate Orbiter, which was built by...

A Floating Point Error That Caused A Damage Worth Half A Billion

If you ever did a little bit of programming, you must be aware of the term: floating point. One of the most neglected and potentially dangerous errors one encounters is the floating point error. I bet a programmer must have seen the floating point error at least once in his/

Clean? It's full of chatter marks from either cutting too fast or a dull tool.

Well, it was done on a $400 machine with a V-tip engraving tool not a true cutting bit, so I'm actually surprised that it even went all the way through. I have no intention of trying it to actually mill aluminum, I just want to try a little artistic engraving.

So this is closer to what I want. The issue now is I need to sharpen my skills with Adobe Illustrator, since it was my initial vector graphic that introduced the errors in the engraving.

Shouldn't the flag be reversed?

Shouldn't the flag be reversed?

In what way?

 

[milktree]

In what way?

The blue field with the stars always goes toward the front.

In the right side of a person/airplane/boat/car/gun the “pole” is on the right, as if the flag were waving s as the thing (car/plane/person) was moving in that direction.

On the left side it’s depicted the other way

 

[Fixxah]

In what way?

Running to the fight, not from it.

Interesting, just about every waving flag image I found followed the rule of a flag hanging on a wall, which is to have the union uppermost and to the flag's right (the viewers left). I just googled "waving us flag image" looking for a vector image I could use as a starting point. Easy enough to reverse it in the future.
