Have you ever heard of poorer countries? Do you think that over the next decades they'll pursue basic life luxuries such as hospitals, brick and concrete houses, steel reinforced cities, asphalt roads, a car per family? It helps to loo

At which point do you think humanity will start seriously thinking about radical solutions? Such as detonating thermonuclear weapons to throw enough dust above the troposphere to cool the planet down? I'm thinking we're still real

I hope so, when it trickles down to the commercial bank user level. That's how it works in pretty much the entire rest of the world. PayPal is mostly incomprehensible to Europeans, it solves a problem that they never had.

Yes that's the problem. People often work exclusively for a single employer but call this contracting because supposedly it's a deal between two companies (a real company, and a one-person shop). But no, that's still an emplo

Crucially this is also true in Ukraine. The Ukrainian Air Force has found a new clever way to keep using normal air bases. After a hangar got bombed by cruise/ballistic missiles they would print a 1:1 aerial/satellite picture of t

I don't think you can fly anything without a license in Europe. Even small drones require a license now (that you can obtain online in 1-2 evenings). Also, please just get whatever license is required. It's not difficult to do, an

See that would be reasonable, but Germany decided to go one step further, to throw away even all the CAPEX they had already spent in the past. Also, all of this due to pressure from the Greens party, which must be respected for the ruling c

This is a very interesting idea. I think I could use a BladeRF, it has two input channels. I hope the two channels are perfectly synchronized, by glancing at people's projects it seems that they are.

Yeah this should work. I was hoping to avoid having to add an FPGA. On the other hand, BladeRF has an FPGA on board, perhaps it can ingest PPS. It will still be quite a bit if work to write for the FPGA, but at least I'll not have to d

Thanks. Does the USRP B200 know how to timestamp individual samples? Or I guess just one sample, the rest is easy.
