It could theoretically effect font rendering, but I really doubt it.

It's more likely the printer driver have encoded information about the gpu into the yellow microdots [1] that many color printers use to trace pages.

But if they have microdots, then they really should have more information.

> a series of short sentences that mimic the reasoning process a person might have when responding to a question

Worried about the choice of the word 'mimic' - which as usual seems to retain the usual distance from foundational considerations.

Edit: nonetheless, the results of "Chain of Thought Prompting Elicits Reasoning in Large Language Models" are staggering and do seem, at least in appearance, go towards the foundationals.
I'm actually repeating/quoting my rejig of Steinbecks quote. I assumed the original quote is so well known as for that to be clear.

This post makes me wonder what I do differently. I've some cables wired up here that are easily 5+ years old and I've had micro USB charging ports survive daily plug/unplug cycles for 4 years. My number one cause for cable-related malfunction is when I don't plug something in correctly.

I think the mouse that feasted on cable insulation in my backpack may actually have made it to second place. That's an entirely different story...
I don't think you mention where you live, but in many western countries prospective employers cannot ask about these sorts of health issues and you do not need to tell them either (unless you need reasonable adjustments made etc). Obviously it varies a bit between countries but I think they are largely similar.

I'd just not mention it at all. If asked you can tell them the truth that you were trying out some of your own business ideas and doing some freelance but then got unwell. Don't go into detail about the illness or other family stuff.

If they specifically ask and press you about your health after saying that then they are probably breaking the law if you are in a western country. If they ask you could just say something like "I don't really want to go into it all - suffice to say that I'm all better now and excited to get back to work" etc. A good interviewer should just skip over the health issue and hopefully say something like "Sorry to hear about your illness, but hey I'd love to hear about those business ideas you were working on! Tell me more!" Etc.

It might be worth trying to pick up some more freelance stuff now for a couple of reasons: ease back into a working life on your own terms, and also to have some more recent work experience to demonstrate to prospective employers.

Good luck.
All the other details are fairly straightforward (toner, envelope, paper, etc) that can be nailed down with enough legwork, but I am wondering how they possibly had figured out the GPU of machine.

- Are there certain rendering artifacts that can be seen on printed glyphs that give clues to the GPU?

- Or, are they going by heuristics here? (I.e. it was XYZ GPU, because it was a common machine that at the time that would be running Win 8 or 10)
This isn't shown in the video, but does your editor comes with pre-set "styles" or is it something that you would import yourself ?

My experience is that typing the code for components nesting inside components is not really the big hurdle when designing React views ; rather, it's getting the "layout" part of the css right.

The big value in the video seems to be the simple fact that you have a "Form" parent component where adding a child gives it roughly the right look.

But maybe I have Stokholm syndrome, and forgot how simple it was to hook up in GUI in VB3 back in the days !

Nice work !

So I've tried this and cannot reproduce anything like it. Yes, when I tell Macos to scan for network, there is a short latency spike, as can be expected. But _only_ when I open up the networks menu.

I have maps open, refresh my location etc. Nothing at all. So there must be some other factors at play. Given the authors wireless woes that I've never had trouble with, I feel like they might just be living in a bunch of farayday cages ;)
Yeah, that's the difference between Heroku and all these "alternatives" people tend to recommend. They are not the same.

Heroku you push your code to git and if the push succeeded, the deploy is done. If the deploy fails, so does the git push.

If you have failing deploys in your case, you'll end up in a state where what's deployed is not the same as what's on the git branch. Personally, I avoid that like the plague.
AirPods Max are way more expensive than what I'd consider paying for headphones, the case I wouldn't trust in my backpack, the battery life doesn't even last a long international flight, nor does it come with airplane adapters, it doesn't have an aux cable for backup and I don't trust apple to integrate with anything outside their walled garden - which includes pretty much everything I own.

As for other brands the cutting out is inherent to bluetooth and so is the pairing process. Even with longer lasting batteries they'd still run out eventually. It sometimes not connecting automatically is likely related to my phone, so I doubt an alternative would change that. I'm extremely happy with my Sony XM4's, but to me them having bluetooth makes little difference.
Do you have a reference for the AMD interface? I know it exists but don't know where to find it.
I have thought about this myself. I do not think it is directly related to China. I think it is just not trendy to be an embedded developer. And the reason is that it is extremely difficult to start a hardware company (even more with the chip shortages in the last 2 years) because one needs to take care of delivering components that are rare or not available for months, to create the firmware for the board, to manufacture it and deliver it to the customer. Working from home office is often not possible, because soldering stations are needed, oscilloscopes, power supplies etc. The tools are also often not cheap, a debugger can cost 10-15$, but often for bigger projects the debuggers are 100x more expensive, the compiler could also cost a couple of thousand dollars. Then if there are bugs in the SW (there are always bugs) it is again difficult to update the software (this has improved in recent years with all the connected devices/cars etc., but it is still difficult). And as far as I know there are not that many hardware companies that have big exits.
On the other side, being a web developer does not require being in an office, buying expensive hardware and tools, nothing is physically delivered and at the end there is a chance to be part of a big tech exit. Big exits -> big salaries

Most interesting parts (IMO):

“Program and program settings: When preparing the letter, WordPad for Windows is most likely used. Default settings for font, line spacing and paragraph are used. The page layout has been Letter.”

That, I think, can be inferred with good confidence from precisely measuring various font measurements, looking at how lines got broken, etc, and comparing that with a database of program defaults for a large set of OSes and programs.

“Device, operating system and video card : When designing the threat letter, a Windows PC has been used, with an operating system Windows 10 or 8.”

I guess either WordPad or the font got tweaked somewhat in that Windows version. Maybe WordPad started using ligatures more aggressively, its page width got a tiny bit wider, or, in the font, some letter shape or spacing table changed a tiny bit, or a character was added.

“The PC has had an integrated video card, Intel HD Graphics 630.”

That, for me, is the most intriguing part. Does Windows use the GPU to render fonts even if they get printed, and are there subtle differences between GPUs and their software rendering that, statistically, can be recovered from the somewhat noisy print?
Since you already have an exporter that produces class-style React components, it seems like it would be nice to have the option of class or functional components. I've worked on projects with strictly class-based components, strictly functional components, and a mix of both. Would certainly be nice to be able to select between the two flavours of exported components, and would make it easier to sell the decision to use Aspect-designed components in more codebases!

(Our reasons for preferring one flavour or another usually depends on some combination of legacy-ness of the project (older -> prefer class components for consistency), complexity (simpler -> prefer functional components), and experience of the team (more junior -> prefer functional). YMMV, etc.)

It reminds me of Visual Basic or early versions of Dreamweaver to an extent (which is a huge compliment). That enabled a massive number of people to make apps who wouldn't otherwise have been able to, but after using it for a long time most users abandon the visual UI builder in favor of the code editor.

If you're a visually-driven person then this looks ace, but I think in the opposite way to the narrator. Rather than finding writing the code directly annoying and preferring an interactive way of editing components, I find visual interfaces to code really hard to work with. I suspect I think in abstractions too much for it to work for me.

Look promising, but just logged in and poked around and couldn't figure out how to get elements on the canvas. Or do much of anything. Some of the interaction design seems quite odd and difficult to use (eg. all the sidebar accordions open on hover rather than on click. And clicking on elements in the "insert" dropdown doesn't insert them.).

Apologies for jumping to critical feedback! Rough prototypes are rough for good reason ;) Glad to see more of these GUI builders popping up and think this is a worthwhile avenue to explore. But might be worth spending a bit of time looking at interface design best practices. And/or getting a designer to come advise on the project.
It's not really allowed, it's about the situation when the class ends, all the kids already left but one of them wants to talk. This is still possible when the others are packing up their things, but once everyone else has left, he feels uncomfortable even though the door is wide open and asks the kid to step outside. Younger kids simply don't understand why and of course you can't tell them except "these are school rules."

Absolutely love all the gui toolkit and other libraries in SerenityOS - it really seems benefitial to follow the "vertical integration" path of software development like Apple and SerenityOS both do.

Having a core set of libraries written in C++ is incredibly useful and it shows that we dont have to rely on C as a lingua franca.

The argument about whether C++'s ABI is any better, of course, is very much still to be had in that regard.

How many analogue clocks do you have which you trust to be that accurate? One huge advantage of a digital clock (on a phone, anyway) is that it's NTP synced with an atomic clock - so it's highly accurate and will remain that way.

I know that when I'm running for a train, I rely on my phone more than my analogue wristwatch - because the analogue clock is rarely perfectly accurate, and that matters.

It's called the Program and Debug interface and uses two wires (PDI/O). That's for xMega though. There's also debugWire (one wire). But many chips also support JTAG as well (for both programming and debugging as opposed to using the ISP).

https://microchipsupport.force.com/s/article/On-chip-debuggi...

The official 328 breakout board uses debugWire I think, but you get a nice USB interface. I recommend the dev boards, they're very cheap and quite capable (all pins broken out, prototyping areas, usually a few LEDs and you can use the debugger). They also have a footprint for arduino Shields!

This, very much so. One of the (few) things I genuinely love about modern frontend web development is the speed of the edit loop with React and hot reloading. Look, I'm an engineer; _writing code_ is my jam, not clicking pretty widgets in a (nice!) UI. It's genuinely faster for me to turn an image in my head into a functioning component by just writing out Typescript or CSS; the abstractions are less leaky, and the escape hatches are literally at my fingertips rather than requiring an extra jump or two.

> Are there certain rendering artifacts that can be seen on printed glyphs that give clues to the GPU?

Most printers will do their own rendering, it's not often that a text document gets pre-rendered by the OS.

If it was printed straight from WordPad without being converted to an image, there's no artefact from the host OS, there.
There are some advantages.

For example, in Alpha AXP they measured that 60% of energy spent in device is due to clock propagation. No clocks to tick - no energy spent. Why do we need to even clock FPU? Or bus - if we are in loop that is in cache.

Another example: in async design ripple-carry adder will exhibit O(log(N)) expected time, with worst case being O(N) and most of the time it will be even less O(log(L)) where L is number of bits that are non-zero. Basically, adding 1 will be as fast as, well, doing AND and XOR in parallel. For clocked design you need to make adder more complicated to make sure that worst case is O(log(N)).

The same is true for other parts as well - multiplier may not even need to wait for some values multiplied by zero bits. You may end up with O(log(N)) and even faster average case multiplier.

Your design does not need strict adherence to timing requirements: if you have seldomly used slow part, your chip still would work fast most of the time (in average). I know of one case where clock frequency of synchronous design had to be turned down because of problems in the placement of some, you guessed it, not frequently used part of a chip - a long bus line to some I/O controller that operated on main clock frequency. This means your asynchronous design can be more modular.

Oh, let's have some other examples: Japan is doing great these days. I cannot help but think that the American occupation was beneficial for the country. (To be sure, I'm NOT arguing that the nuclear weapons were warranted.)

Also I'm unconvinced about the political potential of solar utopias: they're usually centered on art, and completely avoid the how.

That sounds pretty unbelievable to me - even the cheapest crappiest Bluetooth devices can pair with the cheapest crappiest USB Bluetooth adapter reliably for more than 5 minute's.

Headphones snag, the jacks get wobbly, theyre fixed lengths (standing desks mean they need to be long enough to move now so they're messy unless you do a bunch of extra work). Ive got problems with interference with my wired mouse that seems to cause stuttering if I use a specific usb port, but maybe once every 2-3 weeks or so the port I do use just doesn't recognize the device so I have to un plug it and plug it back in. Bluetooth may not be perfect but it's tidy, easy to use, well supported, reasonably reliable, and good enough quality for 98% of my use cases.
