As per conversation elsewhere, I think you've fallen for some popular but untrue / unfair narratives about EA. But I want to take another tack. I never see anybody make the following argument. Probably that's because other pe

Well, there are some fairly obvious answers: EA had a fairly easy time in the media for a while which probably made its "leadership" a bit careless. The EA foundation didn't start to seriously disassociate itself from SBF unt

The work I do is / was largely funded by USAID so I'm biased, but from literally everything I've seen EA people are unanimously horrified by the gutting of USAID. And EA people are overwhelmingly pro "tax the rich".

Similarly, the reason comments like yours get voted to the top of discussions about EA is that they imply "It's best if rich people keep their money, because the people trying to save poor people's lives are actually bad&quot

I don't really understand your issue sorry, but my thing basically just writes the audio output to a buffer, and the DMA and PIO "automatically" send that to the I2S output. There's also some messing about with ping pong

It's not kid friendly, but in case anybody's interested I just wrote up how I made a simple "hardware" synth by bodging together a Raspberry Pi Pico 2 and I2S audio module, total cost around £10 on Amazon UK. The hardwar

Yeah the page is currently loading very quickly and is very easy to read due to an issue with Cloudflare. Edit: If I'm honest, I find this specific css fairly innocuous. I have a more general grudge that raw HTML is easy, free and acce

There is nothing that needs fixing? Both my link and yours give the same "primary" definition for "bare metal". Which is not unequivocally the correct definition, but it's the one I and the person I was replying to

by Joeboy 1y ago
Yes, but if you look up "bare metal" it goes to the page about actual bare metal (aka "bare machines" or whatever). Can we stop this now? Please?

by Joeboy 1y ago
I indeed deliberately pasted a link that shows what happens when you try to go to the Wikipedia page for "bare metal".

by Joeboy 1y ago
Wikipedia still thinks it means the thing I (and presumably you) do. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bare_metal Edit: For clarity, wikipedia does also have pages with other meanings of "bare metal", including &

I mean, you do need an ssh server. Basically ssh can run commands on the remote machine. Most commonly the command would be a shell, but it can also be git commands.

Years ago, a British TV show called The Comic Strip Presents... made two films called The Strike[0] and GLC: The Carnage Continues[1]. Both comedies about what would happen if Hollywood were to make films about '80s British political e

I think word is sometimes used as a cudgel to derail reasonable discussion. I still think it has its place and at this point, yeah I'm going to say you're unambiguously an antisemite.

I don't really want to get into the A word thing, but your position makes more sense to me from a perspective of being anti-Jewish, rather than pro-Palestinian. From the latter perspective, I think it's better to challenge Israel&

You linked audio of a phone call from a Hamas terrorist, as evidence that "Palestinians don't discern Jews and Israelis". I hope you can see the irony there. There's also, I think, an irony that antisemites and Zionists

I think you're probably propagandizing rather than trying to engage coherently with the conversation, but perhaps I'm missing something.

Perhaps we'll have to agree to differ, but I think American Jews being like "not in my name" sends a more politically effective message than "what are you talking about, psycho murderer?". tbf I'm not primarily

If a country was killing thousands of people and saying it was to make people like you safer, might you not be inclined to point out it's having the opposite effect?

I found it only slightly worse than not overriding the standard scrolling behaviour. Any time a site remains usable despite this sort of UX intervention we can consider that a win.

In reality, when people talk about "vibe coding" they're probably either being self-deprecating (if it's their own work) or snarky (if it's somebody else's). I've made a couple of things lately that I some

This is relevant to my interests[0] Based on the website I was quite skeptical. It looks too much like an "indiehacker", minimum-almost-viable-product, fake-it-till-you-make-it, trolling-for-email-addresses kind of website. But af

I'll add that I spent decades not learning to set up a guitar properly or acquiring the tools to do so. It turns out it's not nearly as difficult or expensive as I feared. To be fair it's a lot easier now than when I started,

You could also do this with freezegun or time-machine without changing the function signature. Although I guess your way is less off-putting for people who don't like tests.
