I think terminology can mean different things to different people. Typically space junk refers to decommissioned or otherwise useless satellites. But if you’re a ground-based astronomer taking long exposure photographs, the trails of reflec

My high school daughter has really gotten into astronomy and space in the last few years, and is torn between celebrating the 9th use of the same first-stage rocket and hating the pieces of space junk it’s delivering to low earth orbit.

It was my understanding that apps without special x86-only inlined assembly would be straightforward to port. This could hint that LR, as slow as it is, actually has special vectorized or otherwise performance-boosted sections of code.

This would be 100 Mbps faster than the non-existent cable that stopped 4 miles from my dad’s home in Wisconsin. They went down a rural road 40 years ago hooking up houses who wanted and stopped when they reached a home that said no. They ha

I love seeing cables neatly routed and even evidence of cable lacing in 2021. Dying art.

The best part about projects like these is that they’re 95% useless in the real world but they give a person the chance to connect the dots through so many different layers of hardware and software. I feel like every programmer should be gr

Looking forward to what Fitbit can do within Google. Many people with Apple or Samsung watches started with Fitbit.

Keep in mind that several routers have the ability to block devices from the network. For instance, Google WiFi’s “family WiFi” allows you to pause or schedule pauses for individual devices. This can help you get firmware when you need it a

I assume it makes it relatable to people who are accustomed to seeing kWh on their electric bills.

I love my reMarkable. The software might not be as polished as an iPad, but the marker, the feel of writing on the device, and the focus that it gives me is incredible. I love writing on paper, but I hate my disorganization with storing and

I was hoping they’d discuss CNC Lasers, but it was more about the bin packing.

I connected my LG B9 to wireless so I could get firmware updates to enable new framerates for PS5 games that support it. Then I disconnected it again.

I loved growl. There was an iOS app called Prowl that used the growl notification system that I used in a past life to alert me if things in production were weird without me manually checking all the time. Good memories. Thank you Growl!

Not that I know of. The lids have been so cheap that no one cared.

They don’t re-seal. You can use them for dry goods storage or freezer jam, but if you need a seal for room temperature storage or cellar storage, they’re no good anymore.

We can jams with summer berry picking (strawberry, wild grape, black caps) to enjoy throughout the year, and just our inability to find lids was stupendous. Those little discs that cannot be reused after they’ve been sealed used to be every

It sounds like companies own mansions and influencers rent space in the mansion. However, my brain is too old to comprehend what’s going on. Is there a more accurate description of this phenomenon?

Don’t dunk it in water like an iPhone. Unlike lightning, usb-c is likely energized and not sealed.

“New Intel chips were often delayed and offered only small improvements over previous generations.” As noted on HN and elsewhere, Intel’s struggle has been in manufacturing. They minimized risk (“got lazy”) when Moore’s Law reigned and thei
