USDC and Tether are _not_ the same thing. They're collateralized and distributed differently; the only similarity they have is being stablecoins. That's like saying potatoes and carrots are the same thing because they're vegetables.

Writing out the KiCad files in a native format was an option. KiCad files are human-readable, so it probably wouldn't be too hard to figure out how to just generate the data programmatically, I just got distracted by other projects and never got back to the project. My data is just thousands of little line segments, nothing fancy.

It looks like your script uses some KiCad libraries. My generator program is written in Haskell, so unless someone has written a binding there's probably no easy way to just use the KiCad API. But human readable text doesn't look hard to generate.

It seems like the sort of problem I was trying to solve is kind of similar to yours. (The geometry is different. I wasn't making coil-shaped traces, instead my thing was to take a voronoi diagram and for each cell print a set of interdigitized fingers inside the cell. These are for pressure sensors under a strangely-configured keyboard. But the general problem of "I can write a program to draw lines but I need it to be a PCB" is more-or-less the same.)
This was very clearly mentioned in the article, the project was even sponsored by the board fab used (PCBWay). There are others, and prices for entry-level hobbyist-size boards are low.

Two freely available software options to Goog are KiCAD and EasyEDA.

US ends latest Emmett Till murder investigation
Lol, 69. Nice.
It is way harder to use macros than to do multiple-cursor editing, especially for the kind of fast changes that happen 10 times a day. The difference is between seeing interactively exactly what you are doing and where something is going wrong (with multiple cursors), vs. recording a macro, replaying it, realizing you forgot to do something like use the correct keybinding, rerecording, etc.

I say this as a huge vim advocate, who used vim exclusively for 8 years before switching to emacs and lately to vscode.

Vim gets a lot of things right, and there's no comparison to using vim-style editing. But multiple-cursor editing is a killer feature that really does improve your workflow a lot of the time. Luckily most editors have some version of it now, though often not as good as the original and doesn't always play nicely with the various vim modes.
No, I hadn't heard about it until I came across this article.
> Should Facebook have been legally obligated to ban those posts?

Did Facebook promoted that posts? That seems to be the problem. High hate seems to equal high engagement that equals more money.

If Facebook profited of promoting genocide posts, that is clearly morally wrong. It can easily be also illegal and a felony.

Facebook is not a chat but a curated feed of news. Back when it started it was not like that, but when the timeline became the curated feed then everything changed and responsibility is on the curators side.
Yes, but it had the lowest CPU and memory footprint! There's also something to be said about the COTS hardware requirements and ease of installation.

I wonder if we could discover new physics/applications or build a warp drive just by brute-forcing/mass experimentation or simulation.

What if our universe is simulation by an "alien" species who wants to achieve FTL travel but are out of ideas on how to do it; but, they can run obscenely massive simulations. And the simulation stops as soon as someone inside the universe achieves FTL travel.
Yes. VSCode at least (haven't used Sublime in a few years) has a vim mode, which has great macro support. It's not 100% compatible with vim but it's pretty good.
Concentrated, unique, and at least somewhat democratic.
The last one is indeed the golden one. When I feel that my eyes are sealed or I feel a lot of friction I use my fingers to help open my eyes. After that I put some eye drops in.

What is very interesting that there is a certain set of actions that you can take and the ones that helped you, didn't help me (diet - I've been eating healthy for a long time, air humidity - we use air humidifier for a long time too), but the ones that were great for me (eye hygiene) didn't help you.

After many years of being in your camp, I finally made the switch to VSCode (well, first to Spacemacs, then to VScode).

It's true that there are a lot of things I configured specifically in vim, however, VSCode has a pretty decent vim mode that takes care of a lot of stuff (including a bunch of pretty standard stuff that most people add to vim, like adding vim-surround for example).

In addition, it has a pretty decent way to configure new commands, so most of the other stuff I missed from vim I could actually figure out how to port over to VSCode.

Totally worth it for me - it was a few months of slowly rebuilding habits and porting commands from vim, but now I have a "best of both worlds" setup.
Most bitcoins are bought with tethers and tethers are issued by Tether inc. Thether inc. claims that tethers are backed by real US dollars, however nobody knows whether this is true and Tether inc. has been shown to have lied about that in the past. In short, the widespread suspicion is that exchanges and other parties are using unbacked tethers to pump the price of bitcoin up.
It probably needs some more time to catch up with NPM...
Almost correct.

But they are the exchange, even if they claimed for long they were not.
Raycast (YC W20) Is Hiring to Make Work Frictionless (Remote in Europe)

> it always baffles me that most people seem to be using Rust to write ... web services?

I think it's the whole x-rewritten-in-rust-now-faster hype train. Although those limitations you mention, what's easy and hard to do, do have a more or less automatic impact on performance, fueling that train.

I think of it like this:

Programmer level 1: Makes something work in a higher level language

Programmer level 2: Makes something work in a lower level language

Programmer level 3: Makes something fast in a lower level language (in most cases just a few simple optimisations on top of #2)

Programmer level 4: Makes something fast in a higher level language (object pooling, understanding how the GC and VM works to avoid GC pauses at the wrong time and all that)

So with Rust (or yes, C++, though it's a bit more of a foot gun IMHO), level 2/3 people can write code that's efficient. What I think is somewhat unique about Rust is that it keeps programmers from making lots of common mistakes working with lower level languages - like it's designed for level 1/2 folks.
What makes you say they can't?

You shouldn't compare C++ templates to Rust polymorphism. The latter is decidable, the former is not. Compare C++ templates to Rust macros.

Btw. Who likes C++ templates? They are such a roundabout way to program the compiler that it regularly hurts me. You need to understand a set of arbitrary rules (steered by implementation of the existing compilers, not language design, it seems) to make the compiler do what you want in many lines of code. And only fellow template lovers will have a chance to understand your intention. It is admittedly powerful, but compared to any decent macro implementation (Lisp, Haskell, OCaml, Rust) it is so much worse...
That seems to be about serving the different variants directly instead of the redirect when there really should only be one variant that makes the best use of any viewport size.
Two obvious (?) reasons:

- it stands out,which might be good for personal branding reasons,

- it physically shows off skills in pcb (and graphical) design.

Depending on your point of view, the browser is more important than the operating system.

That was part of the early debate about IE6, where you would be forced into an OS just to use its browser. This is part of the debate about iOS not allow alternative browser engines. That is central to Chrome becoming more and more a browser you have to use or you're a second class citizen of a whole slide of the internet. It is the whole reason Apple started Safari in the first place. I kinda see it as natural that it became a behemoth that takes incredible efforts to maintain and grow from there.

I think it will take a hell of a time before we see another engine, yes. And it will probably come after a clear Google decline, or completely new applications emerging that boost new approaches to rendering. We need to pray it isn't straight bought by Google/Meta/Apple and get to live long enough to come to the mainstream independently.
I've owned two(1).
The first was a Filco Majestouch Otaku, blue cherry switches, very loud and clicky. Very very comfortable and satisfying for me to use. Started suffering from switch bouncing after only a few years, also even while the keycaps were blank, they were apparantly coated with something, which was worn down from usage. With better firmware, I'd recommend, but it's no longer in production.

My current keyboard, I've had for 6 years, it's from WASDkeyboards.com and it still performs very satisfyingly.
It is a standard ISO layout with red cherry switches. While the switches themselves do no click, it is still satisfying to use, and less hard on my fingers (when you've learned not to rest your fingers on the keys, as they are very light). I had one switch become defective within a month, but WASD sent me two new replacements and noted that I had opted to do the repair myself and have it still be covered by warranty! (VERY NICE!). Again I opted for blank keys, and again there is apparantly still some coating on top of them that is worn down.. Some of the keycaps are now more concave from plastic being physically worn away, but new keycaps can be obtained.
I'm very happy with both the style, function and especially quality of this keyboard, and it is highly worth the price to me, as it's lasted longer than any other keyboard I've owned, and continues to be an absolute pleasure to use..

At work I use some random dell rubberdome thing, that's fine too, just not as satisfying to use.

I don't think any of the keyboards have boosted my productivity, if they work, have no stuck or bouncing keys and their layout is usable for me, then I'm limited by brain speed, not finger speed.

(1) I also had a steelseries g6v2 but it broke so quickly and had other issues, it's not worth mentioning. I've also used an IBM model M for a year to annoy someone at work, but it was not pleasant for me, even if it's supposed to be the holy grail, I own several, for my old computers, and they belong there in my opinion.

Haskell has the downside of being lazy and thus very unintuitive. OCaml, with multicore might be a better choice, if the community gets a tad more vibrant.

But in general, I get the sentiment. For high-level projects, use a high-level language. And if you look at the sad state of js, python, et. al., there is plenty of room for improvement.

Maybe it would even work if someone strapped Rust's type system on go or go's GC on Rust.
Are you sure you're measuring the ram properly? I just opened VSCode with nothing open and it's taking several hundred MB. The main process only uses about 50MB, but it also spawns several Code Helper processes. Some of which use between 50-150MB each.

> This is still the strongest apple advantage: design, engineering and build quality.

The thing is, Appple's hype wave is huge. I NEVER see this kind of blog post about Samsung or Huawei or Sony devices. Yet many of their devices are marvels of engineering, too.

Look at the tone of this article:

> The construction would make an origamist blush.

Make we can get an experienced electronics comment on this kind of congratulatory comment: are Apple devices that special? (I doubt it) Or do they just have an awesome grassroots marketing environment or are great at astroturfing?

I get the impression that part of this is also caused by Apple being American. The US is great at marketing and there is a degree of nationalism involved since there aren't that many American consumer electronics companies left. I remember going to some attractions in the US and thinking: this is hot garbage but for sure they're awesome at promoting it in movies and TV series and whatever.
That’s not really what was happening in the JavaScript world though.

It was a new ecosystem trying to figure itself out, and it takes quite a few attempts to do that. Both react and vue are near 10 years old, express is over 10 years, so it’s not “new and shiny” chasing.

Rust will go through the same thing before the dust settles.
macOS still has a completely retarded implementation of DisplayPort MST (i.e. the only supported display is their own 6K display).

It's been growing on me for years, as macOS is my favourite platform, but I could go on a full Linus Torvalds rant about this. Why the fuck can't I use my dockstation that has 2 DisplayPort outputs and 1x HDMI to connect 3 external monitors? It literally works on Windows on the same fucking machine. On macOS all you get is mirroring.

So ultimately the reason is that Apple is completely oblivous to the millions of people who don't use monitors that are made or sold by Apple. Either oblivious or they flat out don't care.
I wasn't particularly thinking of tech companies, more along the lines of Goldman Sachs, McKinsey, Trump, etc.
all the other assets that can absorb billions of dollars in liquidity are throughly manipulated

Bitcoin is thoroughly manipulated. Tether is minting a billion dollars a day now, with zero oversight and close ties to the major exchanges. Exchanges themselves have been found front running customers, running wash trades on their own coins etc etc. Fraud is rampant in this space and there is zero oversight from the normal regulatory bodies.

A trillion dollars goes into bitcoin, the price just goes up and there's no dilution.

But there is significant manipulation and absolutely no clarity about whether a trillion dollars has in fact gone into cryptocurrencies or whether things like the trillions of dollars that tether has minted affect the price more than real money flowing in. The numbers you can quote from exchanges are unaudited and highly suspect. At least those other assets have some sort of auditing in place to prevent fraud and market manipulation (which still happens, but would of course be rampant and largely hidden without regulation).

Also, Bitcoin is open source. So you can download the Bitcoin code and fork it and call it THE SUPER NEW IMPROVED BITCOIN

Ah, so the supply of this new money is in fact unlimited, since you can add new coins at any time. The supply of bitcoin may be limited (for now, by fiat), but the supply of cryptocurrencies and now nfts is constantly growing, there is no scarcity, and any we have is invented.

If you think Bitcoin is a symbol of resistance you're a mark making the likes of the Winklevoss twins and JL Van der Velde even richer. Get out now if you can.

They can and do, and are an important part of intermolecular interactions (van der Waal's forces have a substantial Casimir effect component).

Matter just ordinarily isn't structured to produce a strong version of an interesting effect - which when you get down to it is essentially what all human technology is based on.

It's quite possible there are some weird molecular structures (if this paper is correct) which could also induce natural warp-field structures out of their crystal lattice.
Algorand also uses Proof of Stake, is much faster than ETH, and supports smart contracts.
