I found that AVR devices are more approachable microcontrollers for learning the concepts of setting up and using peripherals at the register level, and studying the part's datasheet. They are so much simpler than ARM chips, with far fewer peripherals and registers.

I think a good approach to this is to take working examples, look up the used registers in the datasheet, understand why setting up the peripherals that particular way accomplishes the goal of the example, and then start experimenting with changes to those registers.

Hello, so recently I have started looking for a new part-time project. Normally what has been easiest in the past for getting a new client is to find a specification and build a demo. But the freelance sites that have those specs are quite horrible.

I deployed an alternative using a NodeBB forum. https://postaspec.com
Statistics of enrollment percentage doesn’t really describe the culture surrounding college in the United States, though. Plenty of people don’t end up going to college but that certainly hasn’t stopped it being considered a panacea for employability in this country.

This is still being pushed by politicians. It’s still what pretty much every parent hopes for their children as well. On this website I’ve seen people derisively describe people as not college educated.

Sweden didn't mandate strict measures.

I don't understand the purpose, or rather, the comparative advantage of this website. It looks like a series of topics covered in the first few lectures of an undergraduate course in Fourier analysis (plus a few other topics). So why not just read a well-written Fourier analysis textbook? There's no motivation or coherence to this project, as far as I can see, just a collection of terse notes.
I think once the genre becomes defined, it's often bound to get more simplistic if there are words/lyrics. It's not limited to trance music.

A lot of trance music never even had lyrics; listen to what came out before 2000. (Even Tiesto made a lot of music without lyrics before 2002 or so). If you want to find music that sounds like the early days of trance music then you'll more likely find it labeled as techno music today (which is not really all that surprising since trance music originated from techno music anyway).

Beautiful Things is arguably not trance music. Also, when you're studying or trying to concentrate, do you listen to music with lyrics?
There's a few discord communities already if you're interested in joining an established group:

Hypnus server slants to deep/hypnotic same as their label, also has a private area accessible via sub to label boss Michel's Patreon

https://discord.gg/w2G3RcNJ

A Thousand Details hosts Collective Details, which is a techno community and also a collective net label. We (I produce & do admin for the label) have four releases out with the 5th due very soon. More of a producer focus, and a bit broader techno taste, from industrial to deep to hypnotic to mental, but all on the underground flavour.

https://discord.gg/DhE8DxM7

/r/hypnotech has a companion server for their reddit, it has shifted its focus more to cataloguing tracks and labels

https://discord.gg/7fJuTcSq

6AM is an LA based techno event group, I think they sell merch and have a blog as well. They are also working on some integration with their own crypto coin. Music focus here is more on the mainstream / bigroom techno sound.

https://discord.gg/84jPRQSx

Richie Hawtin also has a server, but I literally just joined so I don’t know much about that one.

https://discord.gg/p6GfTaxp

I’m on all of these under the alias neurojacker, stop by and say hi if you’re interested!

Oh, Stoor also has a producer focused discord. I lost the link when I unsubbed but it shouldn't be too hard to find from some googling.

There’s also server hosted by /r/technoproduction, but it was a bit of a hot mess of self promotion.
For sure. But even, say, a 20% reduction would be super valuable for society as a whole. There should be cognition benefits to improving indoor air quality in schools too.
The issue is not one of “power”—one can make almost any formal system sufficiently “powerful” by adding a few axioms that get you over the rough spots in your proofs.

The problem is that the modern world increasingly relies on mathematics, in nearly all aspects of life, to make consequential decisions about how to interpret data and act on it. The challenge is not one of power, but of fidelity—using a mathematical structure that is a suitable abstraction for the real world situation. Use the wrong abstraction, and you end up with paradoxes like the incompleteness theorems.

I believe a goal of univalent foundations is to make the abstract structure that one is working with absolutely explicit, evidenced by the (almost) total absence of axioms from the system. If you want to work in ZFC, you can add those axioms yourself.
I see it now, future oceanic archeologists uncover the container and publish an article about a long lost undersea civilization that used container as part of an religious site where they made offerings to their gods as part of a ritual. It will remain a mystery as to why the civilization left the site and disappeared but the team will be soliciting more funding to continue its research.
"Note that CORS preflight requests are not made for GET HEAD POST requests with default headers."

What are these "default" headers. I have seen access-control-allow- response headers when making HTTP requests. I do not send unnecessary headers. Perhaps some of the ones I do not send are considered "default".

"Thus CORS is a way of selectively loosening security not of tightening it."

Proxy config I use scrubs all CORS headers. As the author states, CORS is irrelevant outside the browser. I make most HTTP requests outside the ("modern") browser anyway.

iXSystems, the company that develops FreeNAS (now called TrueNAS), makes their own hardware for it with full support and decent prices.

The one potential downside is it's not as beginner friendly as Synology or QNAP UI-wise, but I actually like that about it as I'm not a fan of the UI on either.

Lambda was securitizing the ISAs and selling them to investors on the backend, obviously with a discount based on risk.

Some people treat this like a bad thing, but it's really pretty basic risk-mitigation and cash-flow stabilization. This is kind of like basic factoring, or "modern" solutions like Pipe (https://www.pipe.com/).

There is an argument to be made that it disaligns Lambda and student incentives ("outcome it doesn't matter because Lambda already got paid") but long term, defaulting students would definitely decrease the sales values of the ISAs.

Part of the argument here is that calling these ISAs non-dischargable would lower the risk to the investor, which would make those ISAs worth significantly more.

Perhaps because one of the "three virtues of great programmers" is hubris - which Larry Wall optimistically defined as "The quality that makes you write (and maintain) programs that other people won't want to say bad things about." but which also/really means "Excessive pride or self-confidence."

I suspect many/most coders think a "personal trainer for coding" is a great idea - for other people (especially their idiot co workers). But they obviously don't need one themselves, and would never need to pay for new...

There are a huge number of more focused + results-oriented boutique consultancies out there. I run a very small and technically-focused automation consulting firm, and have a number of colleagues at firms in the 30-150 person range that do some pretty interesting work.

While some of the hand-wavy and "if the client wants it who are we to question it" stuff happens in all forms of consulting, it does exist on a spectrum. In some firms that comprises the majority of the work, in others its a small part of a larger and more targeted engagement.

I'm not too proficient on LinkedIn's search capabilities, but I imagine that if you were able to do a wildcard "* partners" search for companies in your area, you'll probably find a handful of boutiques to learn more about.
Any question of “what impact did a lockdown have” should start with clarifying what constitutes a lockdown.

From that definition, I think a lot of the conclusions people are drawing would be substantially less surprising.

If we’re going to call a polite suggestion to stay home and a potential for small fines which were never or rarely levied a “lockdown” then it’s not surprising it had little impact.

There are several varieties of stinky tofu[0] that feature both a hard rind and soft center like brie.

Some varieties of 豆腐乳 (Wikipedia translates this as fermented bean curd[1]) have strong flavor and creamy texture like blue cheese.

I'm not sure there's anything quite as hard as parmesan (I assume you mean Parmigiano-Reggiano), but there are several smoked tofu varieties that taste similar to smoked gouda.

Sadly in the west most shops only sell silky tofu and firm tofu, which are perhaps the most culinarily flexible, but they are far from the most texturally interesting or flavorful varieties.

Good sentence.

But anyway, consulting is a sham business. Anyone can tell you that.

The problem is sometimes you need a third party to tell you what to do. I'm often reminded about how McKinsey told UBS in the early 2000s that they were missing the boat on mortgage backed securities. They went all in and were one of the banks that lost the most in the GFC. Of course McKinsey walked away with millions for their brilliant insights.
I like how people can "mine" historical texts with rhyme structure, to infer pronunciation shifts.

The related cultural overhang is twofold: the english barony probably welcomed the divergence. yes, they wanted to seem posh in french speaking lands, but they had to deny any french right to english (norman) lands. Also, the law demanded that a lot of terms be defined in french and "not french" to ensure there was no ambiguity.

Thus "without let or hindrance" and the other "legal doublets" many of which are bridging the gap as english became dominant.
Neat and smooth GUI indeed, but like the other commenters I am not impressed by the contents.

The animated graph for instance in https://cognicull.com/en/8e2konlv that shows
"If the width of the change stepwise in the time direction is narrowed as follows, it will be a very smooth curve. You can't see the change stepwise, but the last smooth curve is also a digital signal."

-> their bit depth is ALSO changing in their animated picture. So even if the text that follows further addresses that - they are completely missing the point of a good explanation with their illustration.

I can attest to what OP @Iqet has said. I had travelled from Berlin to London very cheap in 2011 (I think under 20 Eur , because the whom I bought it from, secondhand, was sharing the group ticket as well). It was my first trip to Europe when I was a student in UK. And I had fallen sick, hospitalized (insurance took care of it), and I missed my flight back, as I was in hospital. I had no money to book a flight or a proper train ride back to UK. That is when one kind stranger helped find this ticket in a website which was only in German and gave me the ticket printout and instructions to board the train. It was literally a life saver.
It is interesting that there isn’t more emphasis on requiring automated tests with Kernel changed. It’s clearly impossible to verify that every change is safe, yet test coverage isn’t part of patch acceptance criteria.

There’s likely more coverage on a typical website.

Many benefits (e.g. attaching behavior to instances rather than modules, though there are other ways to accomplish the same goal), many drawbacks (fragility, yoyoing, etc.). C could be described as "files containing functions", and C++ was originally "C with classes", so it's not like "files with functions" is a revolutionary idea. This is all extremely well-traveled ground.

I'm happy these days using languages like Rust and Go that avoid classical inheritance, so I'm not here to argue in favor of inheritance. I'm just irritated by the pile-on.
