  2. Year 2038 problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem

    Starting with Visual C++ 2005, the CRT uses a 64-bit time_t unless the _USE_32BIT_TIME_T preprocessor macro is defined. [36] However, the Windows API itself is unaffected by the year 2038 bug, as Windows internally tracks time as the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since 1 January 1601 in a 64-bit signed integer, which will not overflow ...

  3. Lightweight Exo-Atmospheric Projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Exo...

    The Lightweight Exo-atmospheric Projectile (LEAP) is a lightweight miniaturized kinetic kill vehicle designed to destroy incoming ballistic missiles both inside [1] or outside the Earth's atmosphere. [2] The warhead is delivered to the interception point by a system such as the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System.

  4. Kinetic energy weapon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_energy_weapon

    A kinetic energy weapon (also known as kinetic weapon, kinetic energy warhead, kinetic warhead, kinetic projectile, kinetic kill vehicle) is a projectile weapon based solely on a projectile's kinetic energy to inflict damage to a target, instead of using any explosive, incendiary/thermal, chemical or radiological payload.

  5. Hamiltonian Monte Carlo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamiltonian_Monte_Carlo

    The leapfrog algorithm is an approximate solution to the motion of non-interacting classical particles. If exact, the solution will never change the initial randomly-generated energy distribution, as energy is conserved for each particle in the presence of a classical potential energy field.

  6. RIM-161 Standard Missile 3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RIM-161_Standard_Missile_3

    At that point, the third stage separates, and the Lightweight Exo-Atmospheric Projectile (LEAP) kinetic warhead (KW) begins to search for the target using pointing data from the launching ship. The Aerojet throttleable divert and attitude control system (TDACS) allows the warhead to maneuver in the final phase of the engagement.

  7. Heroic measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroic_measure

    Heroic measures are almost always used in the scenario of life-threatening situations, when all other viable treatment options have failed, or there is no better treatment option available. The term is not explicitly defined, but rather associated with other umbrella terms, such as advanced care planning and end-of-life care .

  8. Leapfrogging (strategy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leapfrogging_(strategy)

    The leapfrogging strategy was limited by the range of land-based aircraft, unless aircraft carriers of the Pacific Fleet could assist. Troops on islands which had been bypassed, such as the major base at Rabaul, were useless to the Japanese war effort and left to "wither on the vine". [11]

  9. The Spire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spire

    Jocelin's degrading spine can be seen as a micro-macro analogy to the unstable spire. He believes the former manifests as the presence of his angel on his back whereas the latter is the will of God. His narcissism is belied by these failing structures he reinterprets to maintain his worldview.
