Difficulty

[Martta Borromeo]

difficulty_1_target can be different for various ways to measure difficulty.Traditionally, it represents a hash where the leading 32 bits are zero and the rest are one (this is known as "pool difficulty" or "pdiff").The Bitcoin protocol represents targets as a custom floating point type with limited precision; as a result, Bitcoin clients often approximate difficulty based on this (this is known as "bdiff").

Here's a fast way to calculate bitcoin difficulty. It uses a modified Taylor series for the logarithm (you can see tutorials on flipcode and wikipedia) and relies on logs to transform the difficulty calculation:

Here's an even faster way to compute the difficulty, using std::ldexp(). This particular function lets you scale by a power of two almost for free, by directly adjusting the exponent on the floating point number. Thus, the difficulty calculation gets reduced to a couple integer arithmetic steps, single floating point divide, and a single scale-by-power-of-2.

The difficulty is adjusted every 2016 blocks based on the time it took to find the previous 2016 blocks. At the desired rate of one block each 10 minutes, 2016 blocks would take exactly two weeks to find. If the previous 2016 blocks took more than two weeks to find, the difficulty is reduced. If they took less than two weeks, the difficulty is increased. The change in difficulty is in proportion to the amount of time over or under two weeks the previous 2016 blocks took to find.

The difficulty is set such that the previous 2016 blocks would have been found at the rate of one every 10 minutes, so we were calculating (D * 2**48 / 0xffff) hashes in 600 seconds. That means the hash rate of the network was



Suppression Difficulty Index on the Crescent Mountain Fire. Red and orange areas are highest suppression difficulty (more extreme potential fire behavior and/or difficult access), blue areas depict locations with reduced suppression difficulty. Firefighting is an inherently hazardous occupation and responder safety is the primary concern on all incidents. Researchers from the Wildfire Risk Management Science Team are collaborating with fire scientists in Spain and Oregon State University as well as wildfire operations specialists to develop and apply spatial tools that weigh the potential hazards of fire against our ability to position people and resources where they are likely to be effective.

Measurements: The Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), gait speed, Berg Balance Scale (BBS), grip strength, and Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) were evaluated at baseline. Seven ADL items were assessed at baseline and 6, 12, and 18 months. The onset of ADL disability was self-report of difficulty in any of the seven ADL items. Logistic regression models were fitted for each of the physical performance measures to predict onset of ADL difficulty at 6, 12, and 18 months.

Results: After controlling for age, comorbid conditions, and sex, the BBS was the most consistent and best predictor for the onset of ADL difficulty over an 18-month period (6 months, c-statistic=0.725, (95% confidence interval (CI)=0.60-0.85; 12 months, c-statistic=0.840 95% CI=0.75, 0.93; 18 months, c-statistic=0.821, 95% CI=0.71, 0.93). The SPPB showed excellent predictive value for the onset of difficulty at 12 months. Ninety-five, 89, and 75 older adults completed the 6, 12, and 18-month follow-up visits, respectively.

Conclusion: BBS, followed by SPPB, TUG, gait speed, and grip strength, were predictive of the onset of ADL difficulty over an 18-month period in community-dwelling older adults. Screening nondisabled older adults with simple performance tests could allow clinicians to identify those at risk for ADL difficulty and may help to detect early functional decline.

Objective: To compare age-adjusted and ethnic differences in prevalences of sleep difficulty at various stages of the menopausal transition and to determine the relative contribution of other factors, including vasomotor symptoms, sociodemographics, and psychological and physical health factors, to self-reported sleep difficulty in middle-aged women.

Design: A community-based survey of women's health and menopausal symptoms was conducted between November 1995 and October 1997 at each of the seven US sites participating in the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation. A multiethnic sample of 12,603 Caucasian, African American, Chinese, Japanese, and Hispanic women aged 40 to 55 years was categorized into six groups: premenopausal, early perimenopausal, late perimenopausal, naturally postmenopausal, surgically postmenopausal, and postmenopausal receiving hormone replacement therapy. The women were asked whether they had experienced difficulty sleeping in the past 2 weeks.

Results: Difficulty sleeping was reported by 38%. Age-adjusted rates were highest in the late perimenopausal (45.4%) and surgically postmenopausal (47.6%) groups. Among ethnic groups, rates ranged from 28% in Japanese women to 40% in Caucasian women. In the multivariate analysis, menopausal status was significantly associated with difficulty sleeping. Ethnicity, vasomotor and psychological symptoms, self-perceived health and health behaviors, arthritis, and education also were significantly associated with difficulty sleeping.

Conclusions: These results suggest that stage of the menopausal transition, independent of other potential explanatory factors, is associated with self-reported sleep difficulty. Older age per se was not significantly associated with difficulty sleeping.

Swallowing difficulty is the inability to swallow foods or liquids with ease. People who have a hard time swallowing may choke on their food or liquid when trying to swallow. Dysphagia is the medical name for difficulty swallowing.

According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), there are 50 pairs of muscles and nerves used to help you swallow. In other words, there are lots of things that can go wrong and lead to problems swallowing. Some conditions related to difficulty swallowing include:

The Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services summarizes which foods to eat and which to avoid if you have swallowing difficulty. Here are some of its recommendations for foods to avoid or use only when carefully prepared:

The higher the hash rate, the more difficult it is for a fraudster to gain control of the blockchain since more hashing power is needed. In other words, the higher the difficulty, the more secure the network.

Occasional difficulty swallowing, such as when you eat too fast or don't chew your food well enough, usually isn't cause for concern. But persistent dysphagia can be a serious medical condition requiring treatment.

Although swallowing difficulties can't be prevented, you can reduce your risk of occasional difficulty swallowing by eating slowly and chewing your food well. However, if you have signs or symptoms of dysphagia, see your health care provider.

Players are given an awful lot of freedom in Hogwarts Legacy, both when it comes to choosing which house they'll be sorted into and customizing the playable character's appearance. This freedom also extends to how the game plays, with players able to choose the best difficulty setting for themselves as well as play around with the image quality settings.

The highly anticipated title has a lot of different dials and sliders, allowing players to tweak and tailor the gameplay experience to their liking. For those curious about what all of the difficulty settings in Hogwarts Legacy mean or which display option will be better for them, this guide should have all of the answers.

The best difficulty setting in Hogwarts Legacy will vary from player to player, depending on both their skill levels and the degree of challenge that they're hoping to get out of the game. There are four different difficulty settings available, with the main differences between them being how much damage enemies are able to deal to players and how much they are able to absorb. As one might expect, "Story" is the easiest of the four settings and "Hard" is the hardest.

Players will be asked to choose a difficulty setting before starting the game, though needn't worry too much about their decision. This is because players will be able to change the difficulty setting at any time simply by pausing the game and navigating to the "Gameplay Options" menu. Completionists may also be interested to learn that there are no trophies/achievements tied to the player's difficulty setting, meaning that all of them can be unlocked while playing the game on the "Story" setting if players so wish.

Journey Mode is unique, as the player may choose and change game difficulty whenever they wish. Journey Mode also includes additional tools such as godmode, item duplication, time and weather control, and the ability to control enemy spawns. The player must choose Journey on both the character and world creation menus to utilize it.

There is no standard definition for difficulty breathing. Some people feel breathless with only mild exercise (for example, climbing stairs), even though they don't have a medical condition. Others may have advanced lung disease, but may never feel short of breath. Breathing difficulty is a subjective feeling; only the person feeling it can decide if it is present.

Sometimes, mild breathing difficulty may be normal and is not a cause for concern. A very stuffy nose is one example. Strenuous exercise, especially when you do not exercise often, is another example.

If breathing difficulty is new or is getting worse, it may be due to a serious problem. Though many causes are not dangerous and are easily treated, contact your health care provider for any breathing difficulty.

The provider will examine you. You'll be asked about your medical history and symptoms. Questions may include how long you've had difficulty breathing and when it started. You may also be asked if anything worsens it and if you make grunting or wheezing sounds when breathing.
