Wow, what a coincidence! Thank you for posting, this looks like a great resource.

I am (a very novice, no EE background hobbyist) creating my first design right now.

It seems like there are a lot of design rules that are not common knowledge. And in the electronics tinkering "community" there is basically a vertical wall in the learning curve after Arduino/breadboard. I work on embedded software for a living so I understand that side but some of the electrical stuff really doesn't have an easy learning curve.

I am following along with this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVUqaB0IMh4

and having an OK time so far.

If anyone knows of any other resources I would love to know. And, is there a place, maybe a slack or discord, that would review designs? I really want to have someone look at it before it goes out but I have no clue where I would begin searching for someone to ask.
The tricky thing with bit-banging neopixels is that the entire string has to be sent in sequence and the timing is quite tight. With the standard (modern) libraries you need the entire string ready to go in memory, which would've made things tricky with 90s RAM capacities.

Semi-related: non-real time systems like the Raspberry Pi usually need to make use of audio/PWM hardware for neopixels and thus can only control one string, but Jeremy Bentham wrote some fantastic code which uses the secondary memory interface to drive up to 16: https://iosoft.blog/2020/09/29/raspberry-pi-multi-channel-ws... .

maybe 10x the salary (probably not) but also a correlated increase in hours instead of a contractually mandated maximum of 40 hours, combined with the legal inability to do work from home, discuss work at home, and a lot of related perks.
Oh, the Galileo thing.

Politics is a complex thing where people don't mean what they say, and their meaning change depending on who are listening, how, why and when.

Heliocentrism was discovered by a joint-enterprise of two enemy churches, and only became heresy post-facto when some very good evidence arrived. But by then it seemed to really become heresy, and was punished by itself. Almost certainly the Galileo's posture was important for that, but the society's context was way more important.

Anyway, you won't get any good conclusion if you insist on analyzing the politicians arguments on logic or expect coherence.

There isn't anything like enough space in one of these models to store all the training material, "compressed" or otherwise. Not by orders of magnitude.

Anyone know where the details of this visa are located or what the official name of the visa is? The article didn't mention it's sources or have any links.

> I don't know of any that did bother and decided it was flat (and would really like a pointer)

天圓地方 (literally: sky round, land square) was a serious core idea in ancient Chinese cosmology that was most popular 2000 years ago around the Han Dynasty period.

As for some serious pointers as you requested, here: https://ctext.org/lunheng/shuo-ri/zh

There's a couple paragraphs arguing that the sky isn't round (dome-like) but "flat" and parallel to the land because people have travelled and have never seen the sky merge with the land. (see the paras starting "實者、天不在地中，日亦不隨天隱，天平正，與地無異。")

You might say the ancient Chinese didn't care enough so they ended up with wrong conclusions (or parroted whatever was told to them by even more ancient sources that just made up its cosmology), but at any rate the Chinese definitely did believe in flat earth 2000 years ago, and we have very reliable records for that one.

I guess I should clarify: I am a rust and C++ developer blocked on compilation time, but even then, I am not able to justify the cost of upgrading from a 1950X/128GB DDR4 (good guess!) to the 7950X or 3D. It would be faster, but not in a way that would translate to $$$ directly. (Not to mention the inflation in TRx costs since AMD stopped playing catch-up.) performance-per-watt isn’t interesting to me (except for thermals but Noctua has me covered) because I pay real-time costs and it’s not a build farm.

If I had 100% CPU consumption around the clock, I would upgrade in a heart beat. But I’m working interactively in spurts between hitting CPU walls and the spurts don’t justify the upgrade.

If I were to upgrade it would be for the sake of non-work CPU video encoding or to get PCIe 5.0 for faster model loading to GPU VRAM.
fail2ban had an RCE vulnerability a little over two years ago. I've been wary of it ever since.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28679761
I think fail2ban should never be used to directly add rules with iptable. This will get the iptable too bloated and each additional rule hurts performance. There are benchmark about that.

A solution is to use ipset and have fail2ban adding/removing up with ipset. I intend to write a blog about it, and other things about running your own server, as soon as I get some free time.
If what matter about was physical metal area per dollar I'll be glad to sell you a hand wound 1kb of RAM for $20,000 then. It's absolutely massive in comparison to 64 GB DDR5 sticks so seems to deserve a premium as well eh? Heck if someone offered me a CPU that performed twice as well at the same price and used half the die are you going to tell them it's scrawny and poor value for performance simply because that CPU isn't as "beefy"?

The real metric for sizing silicon is transistors per dollar, not area used. Area is only used in how the fab will price a specific process and cannot be compared between process generations. I.e. it's as one factor in the overall price of among the current generation. If a billion comes out to 70 mm^2 or 700 mm^2 for the same price what difference does it make to the consumer, especially when the denser process will run the same given less power? The hard part about making good chips is, after all, not using the largest amount of metal in them rather the amount of logic and relative performance of said logic vs other implementations. Ultimately this leads to perf/dollar.
We've gone over a month without burning any coal, but then the Ukraine war happened and we were at risks of blackouts. That 1.1% is likely heavily concentrated as a much higher percentage on a relatively small days over winter and/or where wind levels were low.

We probably want to be sure if gas imports are heavily hit again or a major interconnector goes down we'll be fine before entirely demolishing it.
Evolution doesn't always work like that though. There's a fair bit of luck involved. You're right that 'intelligence' would certainly help an organism survive, but that is hardly a guarantee.
A (correct) description of monads requires talking about higher-kinded types, which rules out those languages immediately, unless MyPy has come a long way since I last looked.

Apart from that, frankly, I think that Haskell syntax (or just mathematical type syntax, which looks very similar) is so much cleaner when talking about higher-order functions that it's worth spending a little while explaining what `m a → (a → m b) → m b` means in the prerequisites of the article rather than have the reader have to wade through `Callable[[Kind[M, A]], Callable[[Callable[[A], Kind[M, B]]], Kind[M, B]]]` [1] for the rest of it. When you're trying to explain a novel topic, the last thing you want to force your reader to do is waste their brainpower counting brackets.

I recently migrated my own static Hugo blog onto Blot, and I just about couldn’t be happier with it.

I’m not versed in web development, but Blot’s developer (David) seems to have a great goal in mind & similar enough priorities to what I wanted that it was a great fit. I finally got to set up the photography site I’d been planning, too.

I was under the impression that to use these drugs medically, you do need to be overweight - BMI 27 and some related condition like high blood pressure or you need to be obese (BMI 30+) or have diabetes. I wonder what people are saying to get them prescribed for more trivial weight loss.

I wonder what this is doing to our insurance premiums because it sure isn't cheap, but other than that, I say if you want to take it, then go for it. I probably would if the cost was reasonable.
Yes, I know. I guess my comment wasn’t obvious. On Reddit, I would expect it but here?
Your experience sounds weird. Reading it remind me of people who come from programming paradigm X try paradigm Y and only use methods from X only to conclude that Y sucks.

Why would you use 4 package managers to do 1 thing ? Most people who use arch use 1 and it does the job. All of them are built around pacman + smth for AUR packages. Personally I use pacui.
Why would you convert package from other distro, if another distro has it then it most certainly exists in the AUR, never once had to touch another distro's packaging.

I don't know about the "the modder's distro" part but I personally had much less headaches with it than I had with Ubuntu,fedora,debian, and CentOS.

The only thing that sucks for me (regardless of distro) is Nvidia updates.
Plagiarism and copyright infringement are distinct but not mutually exclusive. Both can happen unconsciously.

Plagiarism means failing to explicitly indicate which author you copied which ideas/expression from. You can plagiarise regardless of whether the author gave you permission to copy. To my knowledge, the US doesn't have laws against plagiarism per se. (The US does have laws against academic dishonesty, fraud, and copyright infringement.)

Copyright infringement means copying/modifying a rightsholder's copyrighted expression 1. without a license from the rightsholder or 2. in a way which violates a condition of the license you got from the rightsholder to copy/modify the expression. Both of those scenarios are subject to fair use in court, considering that the second scenario effectively is a case of the first scenario. A copyright license may require you to provide attribution in a specific manner; failing to comply would revoke your license permanently or until you comply (depending on what the license/rightsholders say).

A few weeks ago I went through one of those drive through Christmas light displays. It had dozens of 10-20ft metal sculpture frames of various designs that were wrapped in lights. On some structures there was very basic programming, certain lights would turn off and on in a sequence to simulate movement, but the basic metal structure had a pre-defined shape. It got me thinking if it would be possible to build a cheap metal structure that's like 20ftx40ft LED wall using chinese WLEDS in a grid, using arduino etc. Basically a giant, cheap, low resolution, display. Anybody seen something like this this?

I always give my honest opinion without any filters, while being respectful of course. However, I find that most people who claim to be open to feedback or communication are not really so. They prefer feedback that reinforces their own views, with only minor differences. This creates an echo chamber that benefits no one, either at personal or professional levels. You can see an example of this on LinkedIn, where overly positive and celebratory comments, along with (sometimes fake) inspirational stories, reflect this mindset.
Also anecdotal, but I have a close pre diabetic relative taking it for past 6 months without any positive effects. Looks like it doesn't work on everyone while I see success stories everywhere else.

That podcast is from August 2022, which is well after SBF began making major contributions to EA organizations using misbegotten funds. In fact it’s likely that his giving helped pay for the entire MacAskill book promotion effort, which could well have been connected to that podcast (which is dated six days before the book publication date.) It’s reasonable to assume that MacAskill and other EA luminaries didn’t know that SBF was funding their organizations with misbegotten funds, but on the other hand there’s no evidence they looked very closely either. SBF’s close involvement and financially-based access certainly do color my impression of the movement.

VB5/6 had native code compilers. Performance wise, the gap was reduced.
But it still was only object based and not full OOP, VCL was much better in all respects, so were the GUI builders. The component ecosystem was much better, despite having a much smaller user base. I prefer not to use Object Pascal today, but back then, it was superior to using VC++ or VB.

Yeah, they sell them premade, but it's the same as a graham cracker crust, but made with oreos. You can make 'em yourself too - 10 oreos, 2 tbsp melted butter, 2 tbsp sugar in the food processor, whir until crumbs, then press into a pie tin until it looks like a crust, and bake @350{deg} for 8m. You'll probably want to let this cool a bit before spooning in the tofu stuff, and it's never a super good idea to put hot stuff in the fridge - it makes an "island" of potentially unsafe storage temperatures..

Sorry genuine question -- what does the phrase "at Broad" at the end of the blog post's title mean or refer to? Maybe a phrase that I am unfamiliar with?

Ah, yeah, I missed the 'addressable' bit, so they aren't a passive matrix. Fooled by the 32x8 module, last I saw they were all single row strips or strings.
So, perhaps I didn't word my reply as well as I should have.

I am very much aware that robots have fail safes and all sorts of graceful failure modes.

What I was trying to communicate is that wireless communications is very much used for safety (positioning, allstop type commands, etc). The fail safes are there as a last resort (e.g. someone walking in front of it).

Still not sure I'm using the right words to describe my thoughts, so maybe I'm just tired. I appreciate all the feedback, though.

> He was right.

Monkeys throwing darts can also (just happen to) be "right" when picking stocks that do well in the market. Galileo had as much evidence in believing Copernicus was right as the monkeys.

If he had simply stuck to simply arguing both sides of an hypothesis in his Dialogue, which he was asked to do by the pope in the first place, it would have saved everyone a lot of trouble. Heck, Kepler's stuff was already around for decades, and Galileo completely ignored it (along with Tycho):

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialogue_Concerning_the_Two_Ch...

If you want to argue 'for science' then Galileo is not a good example: the only thing he just happen to be right about was that the sun was the centre of things, whereas everything else in the Copernican system (including epicycles) was just as messy as in Ptolemy. There was no practical reason to switch systems, and no evidence to think it was correct.

At the end of the day the person who actually got things right was Kepler, and he kept plugging away at the problem because of this belief that the physical world reflected the spiritual realm (KGW XIII, letter 23, 35; 1595)

> In this way, then, the Sun, itself at rest in the middle and yet the fount of motion, carries the image of God the Father and creator. For what creation is to God, motion is to the Sun. Moreover, it moves [the planets] in a fixed place, as the Father creates in the Son. Unless the fixed stars offered a place, thanks to their motionlessness, no movement could exist. I defended this axiom while still in Tübingen. The Sun distributes motive virtue through the medium space, in which the planets are found: just as the Father creates by spirit or by the virtue of His spirit. And from the necessity of these presuppositions, it follows that motion is in proportion with distance.

See Kozhamthadam's "The Religious Foundations of Kepler's Science" and "Theological Foundations of Kepler's Astronomy" by Barker and Goldstein.

Going further, one needs to believe in certain metaphysical assumptions before you can even start doing what we know call science:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturalism_(philosophy)#Provid...

There were plenty ideas floating around at the time, but ideas are cheap. Galileo certainly made important improvements to telescope technology, but his efforts in moving forward new models (specifically Copernican) were a dead end, and he made no practical difference to things: Kepler was already defending Copernicus in his Mysterium Cosmographicum (1e 1596), and put forward his laws in Astronomia nova (1609), a copy of which he sent to Galileo, which Galileo promptly ignored even two decades later when he published his Dialogue (1632).
