Certainly interesting to have an algorithm that is extremely lossy (near totally) for the majority of inputs but lossless for some weird edge cases.

Unfortunately it only had older still photos and videos, nothing from the last dive. Looks like they had the camera configured to send the data to the onboard computers and those were smashed into a soild mass, of which, no data was able to be recovered from.

"and you can buy that exact SD card model for the low, low price of $62.99 on Amazon RIGHT. NOW!!!"
That might not be the weirdest, most awkward product placement I ever saw, but close.
EDIT : for those not seeing it, yeah, the article actually mentions that price and has a direct link to Amazon.

tbf, finding your product still working after the implosion is already amazing publicity
xthexder@l.sw0.com · 27 pts · 289d
The SD card was from inside a titanium cased underwater camera that was mounted outside the hull. It wasn't actually in the implosion, it just survived the shockwave (which was probably 1000s of Gs, so still impressive)
IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 289d
funny how you downplay it all the way till the end, and anything surviving 1000s of Gs is incredibly impressive.
xthexder@l.sw0.com · 8 pts · 289d
Well, it's an order of magnitude less force than the "server room" experienced, considering the whole rack of computers was compressed into a solid mass.
SanDisk SD cards are actually rated for up to 500Gs, and with how light the SD card is, it can survive these indirect impacts more easily. "1000s of Gs" is just a completely random estimate considering how some of the other heavier internal camera parts were damaged (a circuit board connector sheared off).

TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 10 pts · 289d
I never said that. I'm just annoyed that when a rich person dies, it's world news and "a tragedy" while when a poor kid or a non-white kid dies no one gives a shit. A school shooting and too man doors are being blamed and it is written off as "collateral damage" to preserve the second amendment but when a rich guy is killed the murderer is being labeled a terrorist and the death penalty is being sought. Steal 3 times something small from the store and get 25 years but scam thousands of people including the government for millions/billions and get 2 months if any at all. Why would I care about a rich kid when the rich only care about themselves. Sure, it's sad for the kid he got pushed into something completely stupid and dangerous and had to pay for it with his life. At the same time we as the west are still supporting genocide and other horrible war crimes, costing the lives of thousands of children while people protesting this are treated as terrorists and criminals. It's just a matter of perspective. Most rich kids end up not paying taxes like their parents and getting richer at the cost of others. So when a rich kid dies, I'm not going to care more than when anyone else dies. Especially when it happens by something so dumb as the Titan "tragedy".
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today · 10 pts · 289d
Those rich people are demanding Trump to take away the health care from millions, so they can get a tax cut they don't need, and won't even notice. That kid would have been doing the same thing in 20 years, so I don't feel bad for him or any of the rest of them. They paid a lot of money for an adventure that would give them bragging rights, and got a bigger adventure than they bargained for.

Please watch the Netflix documentary if you havent.
The sub was never meant for that depth and they knew it.
They could literally hear the carbon fibers snapping every dive.
They had to retire an entire chassis because it failed at similar depths.
Nahh, the tragedy is rich people think they are better than physics itself.

Trying to do extreme engineering on the cheap.
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 5 pts · 288d
it was DIY from start o finish on the craft. as opposed to spending 5-10mil on a spherical TITATANIUM sub. instead he used carbon fiber which was defective airplane parts.
Rooster326@programming.dev · 5 pts · 288d
SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 287d
So his goal was to make a deep sea taxi of sorts. Rich guy affordable and capable of carrying more than 1 or 2 people at a time. Based on what I've read and seen he had two main reasons for the design:
His use of CF was not only mostly untested but where it had been tried it was found lacking. It is strong in one direction but not others. The manufacturing process was very difficult and fraught with issues. Making such a large component that thick meant many many wrappings that had to be precisely done. For instance, they would get bulges that had to be reduced immediately or they'd amplify with more wrappings. So they would grind down those spots and wrap over them. The problem here is now you've broken the fibers and created end points and fracture initiation points. Things like the junction between the metal end caps and the CF tube were also an issue.
He was very cocky about how often you could reuse the vessel and tried to be cheap on testing which would involve sacrificing vessels. At 5,600 PSI small things that you could ignore in, say, an airplane structure, become wildly amplified.
Personally I didn't see the point of the whole trip except for bragging rights. You'd be watching most things on a monitor anyway and your porthole was this little, very thick, acrylic hole. You might as well send a robot down and watch on a screen on the ship.
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 287d
being a cylinder there was also greater surface area for pressure points too. i read the articles after it imploded, he reused the sub, after it already has been too deep.
SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 287d
It is also inherently weak. With a sphere it is all compression. With a cylinder you get compression and tension.

No, it was entirely the depth. They tested it in the lab and saw many failures but never changed the design.

And what do you think that polling rate was to fill up a 512 GB SD card? It's all speculation but this isn't a super collider, we shouldn't need sub second polling of a vehicle that can only move 5.6 km/h.
BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works · 20 pts · 289d
And even if you sampled at 10 sps, and did 50 sensors at 10b, you would still only be looking 5000bps or 5.8x10^-7^ GBps, meaning that it would take roughly 26 years to fill up a 512GB SD card.
While I don't know for how long the sub had been submerged, I doubt it was close to a quarter of a century. If that was the case, I believe that we would have been talking about that as well. Even if it was 500 sensors, at 100sps at 12b we'd be looking at 79days.
IMHO there's only a few things a 512GB SD card would be used for. And I hope it was music, because I don't think we should watch the final moments of these people's lives.

This is why being a good parent takes more than resources. I would never want a relationship with my kids where they felt pressured into doing something just to make me happy. I'd hope I'd make different decisions as a father if I was in that situation. My son openly tells me about his hesitant feelings towards an objectively dangerous trip, I'm not making him go at the very least. And I'm probably not going myself because me and my son can do something else together.

James Cameron is genuinely a world expert on submersibles. He made The Abyss and Titanic because he loves the deep sea
He made Titanic solely as an excuse to go down to the Titanic and film the wreck. He didn't even have an idea for the story when he pitched the movie
Then he became the first person to ever design and dive his own submersible to Chellenger Deep, and only the second ever submersible to reach that depth (after the US Navy's Trieste)

The article doesn’t make it clear (it could be better written) but my guess is that the card was actually found intact in the wreckage that they recovered back when the sub went down.
The various documentaries by Netflix, Nat Geo, etc. only came out a few months ago as the USCG investigation wrapped up. Those revealed new details, like that they had recovered personal belongings from the pockets of one or two of the victims. I don’t think those details were publicly known (or at least reported on) until the documentaries came out. This is likely just a similar case of more evidence coming to light.

Well, he was probably "rich" in that he has acquired his own wealth, but I don't think that's what you mean.

Could someone please post the pics? The website claims that I could click "see more" to view them, but nothing happens when I do that.

Taking bets on the last data recorded on it. I'm going with "0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0..."

Encrypted. Was a whole thing to recover the keys from a damaged board, only to find old videos and photos from previous dives.
Apparently they were streaming the video to the inside of the sub, so it wasn't saved to that card.

Cmon buddy it was inside a camera rated for 6000 meters the only reason to mention the brand in the headline is because the article is bought and paid for. Be better

Don't buy SanDisk, they are garbage. I already have 3 SanDisk SSDs that failed and I only had 3 in total. One was a WD branded one I got after my SanDisk failed. Turns out that WD bought SanDisk and I unkowingly bought that garbage again.
