With radio astronomy, where you're measuring phase of incoming radiation, I think "more is more" applies. Would be interesting to hear from someone who actually has experience in that domain though (not me!)

Supply and demand shocks echo for a while. How long did it take for toilet paper to be stocked normally during the pandemic in the US? Edit to add: Better example for me was the semiconductor industry. It was hard for years to design hard

Seems like a perfectly reasonable value statement. I am inferring that you see that as a call to censorship, but unless there's some additional context here that suggests that, I don't think that's the case.

Are you in HW design by chance? Software and hardware are fundamentally different in the ability of the engineer to isolate working segments. You can take a piece of code and set up unit tests for it, and if you feel good about your test su

The proximal cause was a race condition in a piece of software, so as usual it comes back to you keyboard ticklers!

You are really reaching here. We're talking about speed limiters on cars, not accidentally murdering alcoholics who would be able to escape from a wildfire by speeding except that they can't drunk drive because their car has a bre

My experience driving in NZ was that people generally drove the speed limit +/- 10% or so, and speeding cameras certainly weren't ubiquitous. Some places might just have a more sane driving culture?

Design constraints that have so many factors that people still don't use autorouters for most stuff. You're not getting it, drawing the wires isn't the hard part, understanding the constraints is.

You need a LOT of context about what the components are and how they're being used in order to route them. Extreme case is an FPGA where a GPIO might be a DAC output or one half of a SERDES diff pair.

Who is "we"? The purpose isn't scaling up. I sometimes think that the "hypergrowth" segment of the population will efficiency-hack everything until either they all, or perhaps the rest of us, have left our meatspace

What was the context you had that issue in? RAM bus?

Not sure where you are but the libraries where I am are pretty good about having the stuff you seem to be looking for.

Hm! Thanks for the fact check. I really do want to know what Miyazaki actually thinks of the Ghiblification thing at present.

I have been lucky to not have to lay out anything that had frequencies of interest over 1Ghz or so. What's your experience been? E.g. types of signals, frequency range, issues you ran into?
438.
by 0_____0 1y ago
Layout is a puzzle, especially with particularly high density layouts, but some of this is ameliorated by high layer count and fine trace/space boards becoming cheaper. Definitely not black magic. RF layout is black magic, let's n

OP confirmed that their prompt includes a directive for Ghiblification. Given that Miyazaki is known to hate GenAI I really can't condone... I mean there's nothing anyone can do about it but it's just kind of sad.

I have been using an Altair 8800 as my daily driver for about 50 years now. It's really not a big deal to enter instructions through the switch panel, especially with good gloves, and it does basically everything I want it to.

Caveat - I haven't gone to primary sources, but all indications are that they're doing pretty well. Increase of 1.8~% in number of store locations in the last 5 years. Inflation adjusted, revenue is up 38% since late 2009. Wal-Mar

This efficiency extends to their customer support ops as well. I ordered the wrong size of a bin, sent a message in their chat saying I wanted to return the bins and get the ### SKU instead, and without any further input from me, there were

hub dynamos are not particularly efficient. it's very difficult to make an electric machine that is efficient at the (very low speeds, relatively) that a bike wheel turns at. 60% sounds about right. However, safety lights use much less

Having experienced both, it's very similar. Edit to add: I've been in an anechoic chamber and also the black rock desert, which is dead flat and thus has very little surface area oriented to reflect sound back at the listener, whi

Kind of a meta question: I'm often impressed by the sheer breadth of technologies you have at least a minimal, and often much deeper insight into. Are you continually reading into different technology sectors? Working in some capacity
