The Largest Dinosaurs to Roam the Earth

By Amy Nutt • Sep 30th, 2008 at 11:32 pm • Category: Science

It’s relatively unclear and practically impossible to judge exactly which species of dinosaur was the largest, due to the fact that many of the fossil remains discovered to date aren’t totally complete. Partial fossils have been discovered relatively recently that allude to the fact that there may have been dinosaurs that were much larger than what scientists had perceived to have been the largest, but trying to judge based on the incomplete evidence that exists is a difficult task.

Inside your digital camera

By Dan Feildman • Sep 30th, 2008 at 6:00 pm • Category: Hobbies

The camera has one small, slow chip and very little memory to do that interpolation. Your computer has a big, powerful processor and lots of memory, not to mention, no particular need to compromise their software routines to fit into a small amount of memory or trade quality for speed to avoid long delays after taking a picture. In short, your computer will do a vastly better job at interpolating the picture than your camera will, and to top that off you can choose different algorithms (often named after the mathematicians or programmers who created them, like Lanczos or Mitchell) and experiment with how well they work on a particular image. You can even save different versions of the file, including the original, which you can’t if the camera is doing the work. There’s nothing to be gained by compromising image quality, which is exactly what you’re doing if you don’t use the best filter you can get your hands on. The interpolated image even takes up more space on your camera’s memory card, but it doesn’t hold any more information than the original. Finally, as I mentioned above, it adds time between shots, as the camera has to grind away at reshaping your picture before you can take another one.
