   I heard a nice saying once, can't remember the origin precisely. It goes along the lines: Before, men believed they are the image of their Creator, and nowadays they believe they are image of their creation. I.e. it can often be heard

   Totally unrelated rant follows. I wonder how a world without main stream media would look like... Would it be a better place? So much negativity, hidden agenda, pay for play, etc. is present, that one would probably be better off staying un

   What is troubling for me is the scale of this. If you could use your phone to map your private house with this library, that is very neat and nice on some level. But I guess in the future everyone will have in their phone app for this (enab

   Is it me, or is this technology really scary? I mean it is cool and everything, but what good can come out of it? On the other hand, bad scenarios easily come to mind, like: "Lets drone him, he can't hide because we have it all ma

   Analysis of such problems is usually done using numerical electromagnetic tools, based on finite element method (FEM), finite difference time domain method (FDTD), method of moments (MOM) or hybrid methods. Use of such tools is not a strai

   This comment just irritated the hell out of me. Who are you to pass judgement on people you don't know? Like we all live in a just universe [1], and everything bad that is part of your life is your fault, including bad relationships wi

   Could you recommend a good book about design and construction aspect of NMR, like design of coils, magnets? Thanks!

    Excelent tutorials please continue the good work. I like the fact that there is schematics freely available for UmTRX.

    Does anybody know some nice software radio materials? In form of lectures or lab exercises? I was always wondering about background of people which make feats like this. I have a degree in EE, oriented toward telecommunications but would no

    Slight off topic. Does someone know a quick way to enter large amount of detailed traffic counts (say around 300 intersections, counted in every lane and every possible turn), and can routing engine and OSM data help? Is there any specializ

    How could this be modified to make something more complex like knitted gloves? Although there are machined knitted gloves they really don't look handmade. In my opinion handmade look increases value.

    Thanks for all replies. For some reason I felt that ANN has to be large to perform something useful, and small ~10 neurons ANNs seemed like a toy compared to ~1e6 nets. But, as you pointed out, if it does the job then it is good enough, no

    Can someone say a bit about minimum number of layers and neurons needed for structure to be called artificial neural network? I have seen papers with something like 10 neurons (which is very very tiny but authors claim it does the job), whi

    Offtopic, but does someone know a good reference and explanation for OSM tags? A lot of meaning is derived from tags, since the underlaying data structure is just nodes, ways and relations. And since the data is crowd sourced use of tags co

    The models EE use are simplified, drift and diffusion current and electron and holes with their different mobilities and energy levels. Math apparatus used here, and strictly related to statistics, is limited to averaging, I would dare to s

    Thanks! I had a course at uni named Probability and Statistics, but since it was first (and only) course in EE curriculum it was oriented toward probability, and Statistics was an afterthought (I only remember simple linear and multilinear

    Can someone say in few sentences what Statistics is all about? I can't shake off the feeling that it is just glorified curve fitting. Edit: Please stop the down votes, just an electrical engineer here, with one basic course in Probabil

    Thanks for the comments. I am not familiar with WiFi protocol, so I didn't know about amount of time/power antenna spends receiving/transmitting, and how the sniffing works (ie it seems to be entirely passive operation?). My

    What about level of non ionizing radiation the cat is exposed to? Cats head is always in near field of antenna, seems a bit harsh to the cat.

    If my evil :) speculation is true, the camera sensor is just picking up mechanical vibrations from environment (coming through air, tripod etc.) and encoding them into video. There is no proof that the bag of chips is vibrating (they even s

    Thanks. However, there is still a possibility that mechanical vibration is coming to the video sensor through some path (floor+camera tripod), and affecting the video. After all mechanical vibration is affecting the potato chips. Why is it
