Anytime I am laying out a UI or database it goes in a journal, diagrams for things as well. Any reference publications or online sources of information will be listed as well. If your development project is doing something novel, it is almo

Difficult to say. I picked up a bunch of info from perl.org: https://perldoc.perl.org/perl#Tutorials Perlmonks was a good source for certain specifics. Doing is better than reading IMO. Open files, parse log data or such wi

It's not so difficult to do, it's difficult to get people to do it. Some of perl's features use syntax which is either very concise or uses implied operations or operands. Things like regexes, sorting, subroutine arguments, s

Yes, it's a great language for this application. Make sure you read Damian Conway's book "Perl Best Practices" as a guideline for crafting consistent and readable code. People's biggest gripes about this language ge

I've always expected some of the work in this field (and biotech) to run experiments in parallel by using arrays of microfluidic reaction systems. The products could then be transported to other systems to measure the properties or eva

This is what I would expect. With the thermal conduction across the planar barrier being different, disparities in heat flow to the sinks and the possibility of one chiplet running hotter than the other parts, there might be too much stress

I did the same, I think it is just crap at reversing sequences, as it cannot reorder them properly.

Apple is mostly a hardware company. Aside from aesthetics, people are attracted to their products because of the UI for the OS. If you get that for little to nothing, why would anyone buy their overpriced hardware?

$1,299.00 ... wow. Pinephone was a good step in the right direction but I am not a fan of either of the cameras on it or Allwinner CPUs. Librem 5 is using an NXP i.MX 8M with better cameras but the price point is a tough sell.

There are a number of lectures on youtube for most, if not all, of the papers in this thread. You should check those out too, though I am at a loss to suggest any specific ones, as I have not found any favorites among them.

I love perl but it is awful at signal handling. The threading and shared memory interface are not as good as other languages either. Python has a low barrier for entry and can be useful immediately to newer programmers. It is also fairly we

Villeneuve did a good job with the style, and I am glad someone else did not do it in his stead. I felt the story in the movie was far too vague however and it left out many of the interesting aspects of the universe. I'd still like to

I agree on this. I think we might also assume that we will believe we have created it before we actually do, but then simultaneously deny that we have created it after we already have.
