I haven't had an issue with SD cards where Pis had reliable power. Where I used to live though we had frequent power cuts, of only a couple of seconds, a couple of times a day. SD card corruption was a major pain. Even in areas with mo

I'm literally waiting for it, have been for quite a while. Small cars have numerous benefits over just being sporty. An electric, or even a hybrid 86/BRZ or miata would be great, but can't be compared to the mini or fiat, and

I have a soft spot for SDR. I've only done a bit of it, but the mathematical techniques I learned from it helped kick start my career. While I worked in a different field, having made friends with frequency and phase analysis was hugel

70comments, many with good input, many with questions. No response. Posting on the internet is easy. As is buying a book or downloading an app. One might argue accountability is wanting.

I've found most tech lead jobs to be heavy on the leadership. Leadership could be separated from management, but I find today it rarely is. The best tech leads I've worked with have owned that, and helped their team do the tech wh

To extend on what I've said above, exercise was not my thing at all. It took me time to find what I needed not only to start, but to stick at it. False starts a plenty, amongst boredom and apathy. Perfect now, no, far from it, but bett

If that's what you need to spend to stick with it, hire someone, full time. A lot of people would be happy to take that money to keep an eye on you, and hassle the hell out of you. I know I would. Consider what would actually make you

Your passion can also be soul destroying, or body destroying. Friends who have left the industry often site career-ending injuries, or that they were on track for a permanent disability.

Damn, 49euro/month seems downright reasonable. I used to pay more, a decade ago, for a student ticket in Australia.

Oh, and to tour other point, I noticed a gap between juggling and juggling performance. There's an article elsewhere in this post on Gatto, that sums up quite well how audience perception of difficulty is quite limited. This impacts a

I remember learning about Gattos shift of career. He was someone me and my friends would watch with admiration. When we learned he'd stopped, we were disappointed, but didn't question it.

Heh, to some extent, this is what I did. School was easy (low standard of eduction), school life was boring (team sports or nothing), so I found something that interested me. I learned to juggle, amongst other things. Got decent, then learn

Early in my real juggling days, learning mills mess, followed by Boston mess was eye opening. I'd self taught a three ball cascade and four ball columns a decade beforehand, waiting in a hospital ward. Learning those two messes, which

I've fond memories of getting very deep in finding new siteswaps, through the night and into dawn, many nights across Europe in 2008. I'd keep a notebook going and email friends back home once a week or so, just with a dot point l

That was a walk down memory lane, thanks. A lot of names and places I'd thought I'd forgotten. In my teen years, what Gatto had been up to was a frequent point of conversation with a few of my friends. I'd never compare mysel

Reminds of the thermal lance made of bacon, a compressed bacon slug, a coaxial feed of oxygen, all ignited with oxy-acetylene . The lance is one of the favourite tools I've ever gotten to use, it's simplicity is amazing, and capab

Not watching them doesn't mean they don't exist, or that nobody watches them.

I think we do, but we also know how to fill air-time cheaply and show advertisements.

There's been a tremendous amount of media produced in the decades since recording film became simple. While the amount of trash produced may have changed one way or the other, the trash gets forgotten. It's easy to look back on a

I really hope they do, but I'd hate to lose him as a colleague. Unfortunately it's likely to be one or the other.

I've watched a colleague go from a good engineer, to a great engineering manager, to an awful project manager. I see him hating what his career has become and I feel terrible for him.

It's not that I don't want improvements, I modify my cars for exactly that reason, but I want reliability. Improvement to the ride quality shouldn't be a manufacturers after-thought. UX adjustments are nice, adding further vi

I would suggest they mean to say front-facing surface area, which this bikes would indeed achieve over a standard design bicycle. One post in front of another will likely have a bigger impact on aero than a single deeper post. Could be phra

Woodworking is one of my many non-technical hobbies, used to switch off from the world. In particular, I will set out to make a 'thing' of non-critical nature, and abandon all measurement equipment. I'll still use a marking g

This was the most reliable seeming information I could find from the companies website, they linked directly to the article.
