I feel like saving 1 move in 10 (9 to 10 is 2 moves, 10 to 11 is back to 1 move) is not worth the mental capacity required to remember current up/down direction. Easier to let the muscles do the work and let your mind wonder.
That supports the parents point — they had to go thru difficult means to actually use the chips.

Great, so you can pen&paper your code like in the 1960s. In the 21st century, writing code includes being able to run the compiler/interpreter on your terminal to debug as well.

Chomsky nailed this with his work on agenda setting in the media. It reminds me of "1984" with how the antogonists were redefining the language so that people couldn't even conceive of rebelling because there were simply no words for it. I see what the media does as exactly the same thing. They have the agenda, they create the narrative and then never deviate from it. People are left with cognitive dissonance. They know something is wrong but can't put a finger directly on it. So then they fight each other instead of the entity that is truly at fault.
Sorry I saw this article and thought it was pretty interesting. This is NOT my article but I'd like to know what others would do under this situation.

BTW not sure, but is it OK to post other's article here? Maybe I should add a short commentary in the title.
For simple and slow communication busses on hobbyist boards, sure it probably doesn't matter.

But I really can't trust this very superficial attempt to prove a negative with regards to a very complex phenomenon that I do not think he understands, especially since he mentions nothing about inductance, reflections, or impedance changes.

Hell, RF experts with decades of experience will still find new corner-cases and issues with PCB layouts when it comes to analog signals.

In terms of "actual wisdom" regarding 90 degree traces: Some time ago at my job we had to actually scrap a PCB because of right-angle traces causing too much interference. The end effect was a comb filter on the signal and a ton of emitted RF interference.

TLDR: Yes, the phenomenon is real. Do not trust these hand-wavy attempts to dismiss it.
I’m actually happy that Firefox uses its own store. This means that I can use it for browsing through the corporate proxy without having the corporate CAs installed in my OS. This way I’m always aware which data is inspectable by the company.

It would be nice however if Firefox had an option to use the OS store, including devices like yubikey.

As a Mac lover of 15+ years, at least put PCs under consideration. I bought a Lenovo X1 Yoga to replace my dead MBP. It has a touchscreen, fingerprint reader with U2F support, folds into a tablet, and I do all my development in windows VSCode linked into Ubuntu on WSL. The only thing I miss is having iMessage on the desktop.

I don't know how much more servicable the older models were, but the newer models come with an instruction manual that explains how to replace most of the parts. Unfortunately, the screen is not included in this list. But Youtube has you covered there. My only complaint after repairing my own thinkpad is that the body material is a bit flimpsy and the clips will break after being opened several times.
Apple’s “pre-approval” is what makes the iOS platform secure. I get the impression that you’re airing this angst out in a field with your fist to the sky... what you’re complaining about is a feature not a bug. If you want side-loading and a relatively wild-west approach to freedom and access try Android.

Regarding the MacOS platform though: I don’t think they’ll get rid of the ability to add binaries to a user’s home directory much like it is now. It’s a development and productivity platform that doesn’t abstract its Unix underpinnings like iOS does.

But I'm not so much of a zealot to think that if they do do something underhanded like lock down MacOS to a completely unusable outside of Apple ways to not go to a different platform. Until then I will stick with them for sure.
Im not so sure about that, people who finished college or high school in my country are in minority. Im sure this is also the case in most modern countries. I also think that considering voting as a valid way to influence politicians in an age of corpo-corruption is pretty silly. Sure you can pick politicians but if there are like 4 major parties which all sellout to highest bidder, voting is pretty pointless because result is always the same. Creating new parties is out of question because you need vast amounts of funds to accomplish it.

Ah, contracts seem ugly. If only operators could be method names we would not need contracts, we could just define generic types like an interfaces:

}

Donno where to suggest this.
I take issue with this article.

Electrons do bunch up on sharp corners, as far as high voltage design is concerned.

Sharp corners cause inductance when the current has to “turn the corner”. An infinitely sharp edge would have infinite inductance. Think of a charge having momentum, and the H field the result of that momentum. You can’t just change it.

This is more troublesome at RF due to the currents crowding at the edges of the line, where the path length is now different for inside and outside radius, irrespective of lumped discontinuities.

In the RF world we mitre the bends, and sometimes used swept bends. The swept bends supposedly radiate more than mitered, but have not proven that to myself.

The case where you do want sharp, 90 degree bends are on electrically small monopole type antennas. The inductance will compensate for the high capacitive reactance of the antenna.

Tangentially related anecdote: I came across a site the other day that requested access to the MIDI API for no apparent reason. Is this a common tracking vector?

Value of dollar now in comparison to 70s and 80s decreased. We also earn now around 30% less than our parents/grandparents and our money is worth less.

Dissenter is pretty great for commenting on things that have heavy-handed censorship, like political YouTube videos.

Moving from Intel -> Arm would be a dealbreaker for me, as I presume any VST/Au/FCPX plugins would be unusable. As people using those tools typically acquire them over a period of years, the original developer isn't always going to be still around or interested in developing a port for an older product. Over the years, the investment in plugins can be much greater than the host (DAW or NLE) that they run in.

So that's a quote from the museum visitor who opened it. I don't think he knew "common combinations on this type of safe". I think he was saying what was typical was the mechanism, three times clockwise [some number], two times counter-clockwise [some number], etc. Not the numbers.

We of course wouldn't have heard about it if it wasn't succesful. The real odds are "how many safes are there like this that people are trying all over the world, and what's the chance that someone at ONE of them would succeed." :)

Q: "Was the 25TB raw data gathered from a single human genome?"

Essay: "Each row contained a data for a single SNP for a single person." ... "There were ~2.5 million SNPS and ~60 thousand people"

Genome size is "3,234.83 Mb (Mega-basepairs) per haploid genome" says https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_genome .

However, question of uniqueness depends on your model. We are all unique.

If you have human genomes, then use a reference template and only list those which differ. Eg, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_of_Genomic_Sequenc... .

I hate those tablets, they play ads. Microeconomics states that prices will always fall right down to the edge where it's barely worth manufacturing the product.

$1899 -- Quad-Core 1.9ghz A14 + Quad-Core 2.4ghz x86

This text is not as impenetrable as it first seems and offers some valuable insights on the friction between socially conditioned roleplaying ("packing") vs deep thinking ("mapping").

My best takeaways were:

1. You're not crazy for being a deep thinker: it drives force multiplication

2. Ceremony is very often bullshit

3. You're going to have to make some quality sacrifices in your code - here's a useful model on how to approach that

I will have to take your word on this dual input alarm as I have not read or seen any details on this alarm.

Now if that alarm was raised then that suggests both pilots were in error as they both seemed to have ignore that alarm.

However that was never the reason for my original reply.

All I was replying to was idea that the flight control was doing some sort of averaging of the two pilot inputs.

That to me just seems illogical as it would asume two pilots trying to fly the same plane and that scenario will never end well.

Yah anyone who has done RF engineering knows that "just a little bit of capacitance" can be a lot of capacitance.
My only problem with the auto router (in EAGLECAD at least) is that it ruined your undo/redo history! So basically if it screwed up you had to tear the entire thing up, or go back to an old save.

Sure, but that works through natural selection. All the birds that didn't use strong sticks eventually fell out of the trees and their offspring died.

Boeing 737 Max: New issue could delay aircraft's return
The article basically says, as I'm reading it, that it's good to use the perfect technical solution to a problem. However that is a very short sighted and narrow look at software engineering. Software engineering is a team effort, a business effort and filled with unknown unknowns.

If you've written everything in X then ensuring that your next project is also in X (even if X isn't perfect for it) has many advantages. Your bus factor is high since your whole team is familiar with the technology. There are fewer unknown issues that you'd hit versus a new approach. You'll be able to re-use already written code so getting things running will be faster. There'll be fewer drawn out arguments and discussions on technology choice at every juncture. There will be more eyes able to properly review the code and choices made.

Hiring and overarching technological decisions are as much about business as technology. I've seen many engineers hired who want to rewrite everything in Y because they're not familiar with X. The business gain of it is negative but they still push for it.

I'm not saying that hiring only X is the best choice all the time but rather that a middle ground based on the specifics of the business is necessary. A flat out decision to never hire explicitly for X is as blind as one to without thought always hire for X.

One of the most noteworthy things about Mitch Kapor is that he co-founded the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF).

The EFF seemed to be informed and motivated by an understanding of technology, as well as of history, and progressive American ideals of society/humanity (freedom of speech, civil rights, innovation, etc.).

But it seems the EFF hit its stride, and has been keeping it real.
