I just had a play going through the source and adding support for a board of my own, and if OP is reading this, I want to share my appreciation for how well this project is laid out. A lot of hardware projects are sort of spaghetti dishes,

The draw that this one gives me over the Zet processor (which btw is great and I've used it here and there in the past), is that Zet is not really maintained anymore. It's not a moving target, that's completely true, but S80x

So neat. I was working on this exact thing at this exact time too. The massive draw for me was working with some companies that have a reliance on PC and PC/XT workstations with tight hardware resources and needing a simple way to swap

Also anecdotal, but this is also what we're doing at our company too. Most of us have the 2015 era Macbook pros, and run a split between 10.9 and 10.10. Others that aren't using that gen are using Thinkpads with full keyboards on

But it could prompt them to see an Apple Care Rep and get a new battery, which would fix the ultimate issue according to them.

If you don't mind the bitbanging, Software SPI could totally be an option for your resistive touchscreen if the screen itself isn't a super active device. Also, for the camera itself, way, way cool. I love the idea of stumbling on

Also see Uridium on the ZX Spectrum.[1] It's the only ZX game I can remember that had smooth scrolling, and when I first saw it, it left me in awe. I'd love to see how this was achieved. [1]: https://youtu.be/CKZO-

Somebody in the comments of the article brought up a good point. What happens when the site gets shut down? As apparently is the case according to the comment author. I know it's a trope, a huge joke and everything, but this seems like

If it helps answer your question, I am a woman and I do not see all men as having narrow views of women. I feel as if there is still a cultural struggle to some degree, but to say all men feel that way is a bit extreme in my mind.

by Posibyte 9y ago
I wonder if there's an analogous group of women that behave this way as well. The article didn't really dive into motivations, so I wonder how much of it is cultural and how much of it is related to general mental health. And if i

Can you elaborate on how this would fall under interstate commerce? As I see it, they'd be regulating how they treat in-state customers and their connections, not anything coming across the state-lines. i.e. They aren't saying Com

It's not about knowing how to do it, it's about watching the thought process of how you go about getting to the solution and how you communicate ideas and problems. It's really great that he made a widely used piece of softwa

I assumed it as taking a binary tree (L|R) and reproducing a tree that's (R|L). And if it is that, then writing out the algorithm on a back of a napkin just now was a pretty thought provoking exercise :)

I agree fully, and as I commented above, I don't personally believe this is a place for banks to be for that reason. It's shoehorning a profit-focused entity almost as a charity in my eyes. It incentivizes banks to go after borrow

by Posibyte 9y ago
Completely agree. I don't think banks should be operating like they do now. It's almost charitable in how it works. Banks, who are driven by profit, give out these loans at a massive risk. I stand by my point because banks should

It depends on how spam filters are configured, but yes, subdomains can harm root domain's reputations. However, it's generally seen as OK to use subdomains to mitigate reputations being spread to the main domain. As long as you ha

The bank should be entirely at fault here. If they looked at a student's request for a loan that said I'm taking a basket-weaving class at Cornell and I need $120k to attend then it's the bank's prerogative to look int

Part of the Udemy course Huffman was offering he said this [1] And honestly, it doesn't bother me all that much. I see it like an engine needing a big spray of gasoline and a spark before it can run. Just because it didn't start w

Console verification is an important part of ensuring TASes are accurate. For that, we need an interface into the console's controls among other things.

Exactly. The test points don't need to be numbered either. The CAD tool they use to design the boards can produce a bed-of-nails pattern that can be fed back into QA testing machines. If something fails, they can pinpoint it through th

It took me a minute with a few googles, but the TS in this case means "Technical Specification", which helped out a ton with searching. Unfortunately, I'm still not 100% this is what they're referring to, but I think thi

I have a little design for a Cortex based platform with enough memory to hold these images, but there's no way I could run an entire webkit instance for capturing images. This is a perfect solution me. So yeah, in my case casper is a n

Cleaning. It sounds sort of childish, I know, but cleaning was always such a secondary thing to me. I wasn't dirty, but I was messy. I would constantly buy things from Amazon, toss the box in the garage. One weekend, a friend and I fla

This is the project that interested me the most. Would you mind sharing what it is? I figure there must be some serious nostalgia built in there if you're willing to shell out that much for it.

So I see you everywhere on HN. You usually have the not-so-consensus opinion that I usually agree with. First off, so we have a baseline. I never thought to check your profile and look for projects or blogs or anything. But wow, you have wr

I feel like this has to do with Equifax basically not being punished in any major way over the last breach. Their stocks are still priced reasonably well, most of their board is still intact, and US citizens are still required to work with
