It's amazing what doctors don't think to explain. Like, buddy, I know you've seen this a million times before, but trust me this is the first time I've ever done this...

Oh, I'm the last one to start a call like that, because I know how bad it is to get stopped in your tracks and diverted when you're on a roll. Not that calls and conversations can't be useful, I just... don't like it whe

Sounds like you should be running Red Hat, not Fedora. RHEL has a 10 year support cycle, so you can wait for technologies to mature before you migrate to them.

I find that it's hard to successfully misrepresent what someone said when the original is right there for everyone to see .

I stumbled a bit over those "gigabits per picosecond" units.

FWIW, the 64-bit part is new, but TCM and fast/bounded interrupt response are features available in past and present Cortex-R and Cortex-M devices. If you want to play with this stuff now and don't need a 64-bit device, there are

That's not true, classic Mac OS used a cooperative multitasking model, where processes had to be friendly enough to yield control back to the system / other processes to allow them to do work. A poorly programmed or greedy process

As a customer, it's a painful experience when you realize the support people are in this position. I can't be mad at them, they're friendly and personable and they at least pretend to want to help, but it's obvious that

Is college actually good at that sort of thing, or is it just better than staying at home? If I spent half my college tuition on networking, social clubs, conferences, hobby groups, etc, I bet I could do a lot better than I did at my colleg

Hmm, I was going to say that digikey has 3 or 4 dollar shipping, but I checked and it's $5 for a first class mail. Maybe they've changed it, or maybe it's COVID-related. I recall that they had a low price for shipping of a sm

I always get a kick out of analogies on HN. When there’s a technical concept being discussed, someone will make a non-technical analogy. When there’s a non-technical concept being discussed, someone will make a technical analogy. And it’s a

If you drive a manual and park on a hill, you can apply this method pretty effectively.

Jim Salter has been doing a series of Linux distro reviews, so the title ties into that, even if Haiku being a BeOS distro (or Haiku distro?) is a little questionable.

On a mac you'd use Control-A and Control-E to navigate to the beginning and end of a line. IIRC Home and End navigate the document, not the line. https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT201236

I don't have a macbook so I can't comment on it, but I have a touhgbook with thinkpad power supply, and I feel it only on my wrists when I'm well grounded. Can't feel it on my fingers or palms.

As others have said, that's not it. It's the line filter capacitors in the power supply. There's two types: X capacitors which filter differential noise (between line and neutral) and Y capacitors which filter common mode noi

I chose the mux-based approach because it has the better area*delay product, but it might be interesting to implement the mask-based design to see how it works out on my FPGA.

Huh, last time I tried it, I think firefox had trouble picking up my settings. I think that was more than five years ago though, so it's likely things are better now. :)

by Gracana 6y ago
Yeah, I've set it up before but there's always a program or two that doesn't pick up the settings. And you still don't get the ctrl-<letter> line editing tools in text boxes like you do on Mac OS, so I feel it&#x27

Yep, Apple really nailed it with that choice. Not only can you use GUI key combos in the terminal, but also you can use terminal line editing key combos in the GUI. That's something that seems like it ought to be possible in Linux, but

Individually resizable schematic symbols are not typically needed. I think that feature would baffle experienced EDA users, and trip up new users. You almost certainly want symbols of a fixed size, drawn on a zoomable canvas.
