I think your experience on 8 bit is just fine. Imagine, if you will, that your 8 bit micro has 2 kB of RAM, such as the famous atmega328p of the Arduino UNO. Sure the compiler might put it into a register, but it might not. It most certainl

This seems like a solved problem for those who care to solve it. Weigh product on intake, weigh on outflow or some other constant displacement pump solution. I've seen How It's Made and those factories have it down to a science wi

I've seen tofu go down in price in recent years. It's incredible. I think my local store is doing a block of extra firm for under $1.50? It used to be $2

2 things of notice in the readme as recently I've been in the efficient binary communication hunt: 1. .text size without clarifying the architecture, flags, and compiler is meaningless unless it's all rodata (and it's not) 2.

Even not a cancer treatment. Even if the original seller was an uber wealthy and healthy individual, if they can't get what's legally theirs without as little as "I want it back" (contract permitting, which I think here

1) A bit of hyperbole on my part but consider that minimum wages and other worker benefits have worked like this for a long time. They tend to ramp up. 2) good. The more people who are in the city the more actual sales tax and other revenue

Probably the least complicated tax law. Increase taxes to increase revenue. Makes sense. Align valuations with reality while maintaining relatively constant absolute tax dollar amounts. Also makes sense. It's really not that hard.

^^^ when I tell people tangential to the field that the latest pi needs considerations of cooling solutions and a beefy power supply (no more just any old micro usb cable into any old usb port), they're astonished. It was a "micro

Think of it like this: telegraphs are the hot new thing. The more you send, the more modern and relevant your company. No more Pony Express. You can either have employees sending 1-2 a day. Or, 100 per day. Wow so advanced, so modern, inves

Ah. Good fact check. I swapped the numbers on minimum community service hours to graduate high school and this. But I think my point still stands that you can't just walk in and take the test

I very much do not believe them, but I don't have much to base that on other than that now there's a company doing a similar thing and projecting much longer timelines. So sadly I'd be joining you

Opportunity cost meaning investing with standard rule of thumb returns? I think usually it's just total cost at installation divided by the product of power generation and energy cost. So that's $ / (W x $/Wh), which sho

20 years. At least they're realistic. Seems Boom is thinking 2029-2030 for their operation ( https://flightplan.forecastinternational.com/2025/08/25/boom... ). Only time will tell

Oh maybe I misunderstood. I thought they meant separate meters, so I didn't understand what was hard about that

If you have a feedback loop I'm sure you can still do it with an either implicitly or explicitly filtered PWM. Remember we're talking averages not instantaneous, so the average current through the bulb should be proportional to th

Just to put in my 2 cents as someone tangential and sometimes a little too close for comfort for the field: with FPGAs (aka the half of this SoC doing the real work) there's often a lot of work that goes into radiation tolerance and ha

Not just the test though. In some states you need approaching 100 hours of signed off driving with an experienced driver (honor system though) and a certified course

It was all in one giant multi thousand line file for one language and another for another. Which is also kinda an issue

Well another problem is that there was a developer also working on those functions at the same time. So just like the recent post on a 25 million LoC reformat done in a weekend, it seemed better to do it in one fell swoop. If it's good

They weren't drop in replacements. They were actually easier. Made up example: > setup_terminal(); enable_input(); while(...) inp = read_character(); ..... vs > readline() So yes I could've stubbed out the other stuff and re

As per the other person's comment, yeah basically I could have broken it up but it would've been an arbitrary demarcation. I just deleted our functions and fixed everything that yelled. Admittedly that could've been one and

I was (almost) just that guy for one PR. Removed something like 20% or more of the codebase by leveraging the libraries and external tools we already had in use better, but it meant almost every single thing we were doing had to use the lib

I was just thinking about this relative to the headlines that datacenters don't consume as much water as we think, so thanks

Interesting. Not looking to switch roles at present but what do you make of these two projects? One done basically over a weekend, one done over many weekends Removed a bunch of bad code and got a 1/3rd speed up https://gith

An interesting point. Presumably you'd come at it from a different though equally valid angle

Do we have thoughts on how important "senior"/"staff" is vs bullet points on resumes and the years of service?

Good to see the subjective adjectives in the RF world are here too. Except they're not the same ordering, as EH is before UH for WiFi but after in RF

With determinism you're not wrong. The problem is that you'd need to make sure all your seeds, temperatures, and other input parameters are exactly the same, and importantly that all context is cleared. But people don't do th
