  2. 8b/10b encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8b/10b_encoding

    Because 8b/10b encoding uses 10-bit symbols to encode 8-bit words, some of the possible 1024 (10 bit, 2 10) symbols can be excluded to grant a run-length limit of 5 consecutive equal bits and to ensure the difference between the count of zeros and ones to be no more than two. Some of the 256 possible 8-bit words can be encoded in two different ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_and_torch_problem

    [further explanation needed] In a variation called The Midnight Train, for example, person D needs 10 minutes instead of 8 to cross the bridge, and persons A, B, C and D, now called the four Gabrianni brothers, have 17 minutes to catch the midnight train. [1] The puzzle is known to have appeared as early as 1981, in the book Super Strategies ...

    That puts the motor cue at frames 198–195 from the end of the picture section of the reel (12.34 to 12.15 feet; or 12-foot-6-frames through 12-foot-3-frames), and the changeover cue at frames 21–19 from the end (1.31 to 1.18 feet; or 1-foot-5-frames through 1-foot-3-frames). As of January 2005, most domestic United States release prints ...

  5. Northrop Grumman MQ-8C Fire Scout - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_Grumman_MQ-8C...

    The MQ-8C Fire Scout first flew on 31 October 2013. It flew for 7 minutes in restricted airspace using autonomous controls at Naval Base Ventura County. It flew a second time hours later that day to an altitude of 500 ft. The MQ-8C was jointly operated by Northrop Grumman and the Navy. [16]

  6. 6b/8b encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6b/8b_encoding

    The 6b/8b encoding is a balanced code-- each 8-bit output symbol contains 4 zero bits and 4 one bits. So the code can, like a parity bit , detect all single-bit errors. The number of 8-bit patterns with 4 bits set is the binomial coefficient ( 8 4 ) {\displaystyle {\tbinom {8}{4}}} = 70.

  7. Inhibition of return - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inhibition_of_return

    The cue can be exogenous (or peripheral), [1] or endogenous. Inhibition of return results from oculomotor activation, regardless of whether it was produced by exogenous signals or endogenously. [ 2 ] Although IOR occurs for both visual and auditory stimuli, IOR is greater for visual stimuli, [ 3 ] and is studied more often than auditory stimuli.

  8. Hollywood Squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollywood_Squares

    Taking a cue from the 1980s syndicated series, the round involved contestants using keys to try to win prizes. To start the round, a 30-second speed round was played. One at a time, the champion chose a celebrity and Bergeron would read a statement about them. The champion had to either agree or disagree with the statement.

  9. Straight pool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight_pool

    Straight pool, which is also called 14.1 continuous and 14.1 rack, is a cue sport in which two competing players attempt to pocket as many object ball s as possible without playing a foul. The game was the primary version of pool played in professional competition until it was superseded by faster-playing games like nine-ball and eight-ball in ...
