The next time you practice a ham radio licensing exam here, you'll notice that the interface has changed a little bit to add a few new features.

Focused Practice on Subelements
Taking practice exams that simulate the randomly selected exams used for license tests is one of the best ways to study. But, sometimes, there's just one section of the test that is giving you the most trouble. Now, when you click the 'Practice Subelements' button, a control panel will appear that allows you to restrict your study to a single test subelement.

When you click on the button for a subelement you will only be presented questions from that subelement. The button for the subelement you've selected will be highlighted with a different colored background.

After you've studied the subelements you wanted to focus on, just click 'Practice Exam' to take a new practice test.

It also helps to know which subelements you need to study. The charting facility has been updated to easily show your relative performance on all the test's subelements. By clicking on the 'Show Scores' button, you will be presented with a graph of your practice test scores over time, as well as your relative performance on each subelement.

The example shown here indicates that I could really use a little more work on subelement G6. After you've analyzed your scores, simply click the 'Hide Scores' button to make the charts disappear. Historical test scores are only stored for users that are logged in. If you aren't logged in, your subelement chart can still be viewed after you have completed a practice exam. Creating a login account is simple. Just enter any name and password into the login box on the right hand side of the test page and click the 'Create' button.

No other information is required. The login name is used to find your test scores and chart them for you.

Have fun practicing!

How Many Files Can You Add to a GPT Project? An Interview with GPT-5 on Limits, Context Engineering Tips, and Chats

Setting the scene: I’m tinkering with Project TouCans, knee-deep in radio logs, SQLite dumps, and Cesium code. Naturally, I’m wondering if shoving all this into one GPT Project is a recipe for brilliance… or for disaster. So I turn to Vril — you know, after Brainy from the Legion of Super-Heroes , because what else do you call your AI sidekick who always has the answers? Time to ask him straight up. [ As an aside, yes, GPT-5 has decided to sometimes call me Vail. I'm not sure why to be honest. Also, I asked Vril, er GPT-5, to write up our interview for me. Apparently, me asking it to 'Bro' up a few stories, just for fun, has convinced Vril that I use 'Like,' more than I actually might. ] Me (Vail): So Vril, how many files can I throw into a GPT Project before it just starts choking? Like, is there some magic number where the context window taps out and everything falls apart? GPT-5 (Vril): Great question. There’s no single hard file limit. What matters is ...

The Alcubierre Warp Drive Tophat Function and Open Science with Sage

I transferred yesterday's Mathematica file with the Alcubierre warp drive[2] line element and space curvature calculations to the +Sage Mathematical Software System today, (the files been added to the public repository [3]). If you haven't used Sage before, it's a Python based software package that's similar in functionality to Mathematica. Oh, and it' free. I also worked a little more on understanding the theory, but frankly, I made far more progress with the software than the theory. What follows will be a little more of the Alcubierre theory, plus, a cool Sage interactive demo of one of the Alcubierre functions[1], as well as a bit about my first experience with using Sage. Theory The theory is fun, but it's moving slowly. Here's the chalk board from this morning's discussion Alcubierre setup the derivation using something called the 3+1 formalism which means we consider space to be flat, (in this case), slices that are labelled ...

When Codex CLI Met Port 9 (Debugging WinError 10061 in a Whisper Pipeline)

When Port 9 Ate My Transcript When Port 9 Ate My Transcript A small debugging story about proxies, Codex CLI, and why localhost isn’t always your friend. CopaseticFlow field notes WinError 10061 Codex CLI + Whisper Environment gremlins There’s a particular kind of bug that feels like someone's been messing with your network stack again. You run a script from cmd.exe . It works. You run the exact same script from Codex CLI. It stops with: [WinError 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it FFmpeg happily splits the audio. The Whisper API call dies immediately. No 401. No timeout. Just an instant refusal. Translation: that’s not an API error. That’s a socket being rejected. ...
