Lots of vote thrash but no replies. I invite you to examine whether you are reacting to keywords or to concepts, and if the latter, to chime in with what you’ve found, I’m legitimately interested.

So, you'll notice that humans had that sort of flattened affect you're looking for in Kubrick's 2001, but he placed it in contrast to HAL, which for most of the film is the only character who communicates with an emotive affe

I loved the detail in Interstellar where the audio from EVAs is muffled, like you're hearing what the occupant of the suit would be. The Expanse also does this to some degree.

The moonshot was a technical achievement with a political goal. Putting a person on the moon in the next decade will also be a (different) technical achievement with a political goal. 70% of the US is either female, POC, or both. Enticing t

Well aware of the Anderson connectors. They're big, ugly, and have no ingress protection. They have their place.

I think you're correctly observing that there's a hole in the available smart charging specifications around the power levels needed for motorized bikes. USB-PD is perfect for most small devices, electric cars and larger have thei

The cables would be chunkier but not THAT weird looking. The connectors on the other hand would be wild. You'd have a cluster of deeply shielded contacts, and mechanically actuated shutters might be employed. I have no idea how you wou

It's a shame that there aren't better low cost 2pos connectors. I'm partial to the LEMO style push-pull connectors or the Neutrik style twistlock connectors for "real projects" e.g..when someone has paid me money fo

Battery pack that big will be better served by a larger connector for power (500Wh battery can sink more than basically any USB-C source can supply), But the big reason is it's just a big object, and using a little tiny wire and plug o

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic? Unless I'm dehydrated, no, I generally have to piss more often than every 6 hours, and it's unreasonable to ask a passenger to hold it that long unless they specifically say that c

I have thought of those as well. They'd have to be on the approved equipment list for my state to get those sweet rebates. They've got pretty routine service required as well yes? Not gonna lie, being able to touch just a couple o

Subsidies. So many subsidies. IRA, state. And I get A/C for free, and get to ditch the insane duct system that was built into the house and reclaim almost the entire basement. I'm in metro Boston which is reliable as far as power

I bought property thinking I could retrofit a heat pump air handler onto the existing ducting. Turns out it's all undersized for heat pumps - the air handlers don't heat air as hot as a furnace does, so you need more volume to mak

I think there's an argument to link to both. Since the OSS version was posted I think it's good to note the author's updated version even if it's no longer OSS. Looks like they want 30€/yr, which is far from extorti

Some of the offshore machining services are surprisingly affordable for low qty enclosures, especially if you can commit to at least an intermediate quantity > 100 and have reasonably good DFM.

It takes a lot of work to fill in the striations, prime, paint... Better to start with a process that produces a nicer product to start with, like SLA if you Absolutely Must 3D Print an Enclosure

I sort of agree although the prospective buyer here may not be very design-focused. I wonder quantities they're building. IMO the steps up to take would be SLA (which can look really nice with post processing), or for higher volumes ur

Homelessness tracks with cost of housing much more strongly than with mental health and substance abuse issues (see Colburn & Aldern's research here)

One might surmise that the demand for housing in the part of the Southeast you're thinking of is much lower than in urban California.

Rocket fuel is very often highly refined kerosene. You could use it to run a jet engine or a diesel truck with small modifications. * I will be entering this reply into "most HN comment" contest running at the end of this year

406MHz I think is referencing PLBs and EPIRBs, which I'm guessing you're familiar with from sailing. The power is high enough that satellites can be used to get gross location, with radio direction finding being used by rescue par
