The materials used in PCB manufacture are normally specified exactly. Chemical compatibility still matters.

I hate to break it to you but I pulled it off.

It probably is illegal, but only if there's damages, because that is usually how civil penalties work. In a way it makes sense: how do you know they did it if you have had no damage done? The illegality is the damages regardless of how

You can detect features with visual ML. Sometimes no ML needed because features so regular.

No. Groups process things, but you must frame your question in terms of things you can measure about a group. An individual is a system; using your own logic it is inappropriate to talk about how a human feels. One must talk about each indi

Found someone who makes NanoVNAs yet? I saw some of the newer OSS model of that, but was weirded out it was some random Chinese company on Amazon.

Yes and no. They have patterns to create IQ tests, and those patterns change less frequently.

Then why is he making ~$500k/yr?

If you're not in the right area yes it is a huge problem.

You tell me. Every time we have a thread where people say median compensation is $300k I seriously wonder where those jobs are and how to get them.

I've never actually had to dig that deep into the internals of cygwin, but you do need to understand how things are linked if you are going to distribute binaries. Over time I found msys2 to be a better fit. In theory they're supp

Well, after much searching I didn't find the parts of the Atomic Energy Act that required certification for any and all materials processing. By default things are legal. I've also spoken with scientists who do research that, at t

Plastics still need a plasticizer, so those BPA-free plastics simply use a chemical like BPA but not studied.

Some pthalates seem to be detectable to some subset of the population. Same chemicals that are estrogen-alike.

Why? You need to realize we are currently implementing eugenics, we just don't know what our goals are. There's two types of eugenics, positive and negative, based on the root of postulate. A positive eugenics program selects *for

At least it's refreshing that their government admits they've been scheming.

Is enriching uranium in the US actually illegal? Seems like the answer is no.

You'll feel it shock you. It overcomes the surface resistance of not particularly moist skin and makes your nerves tingle or your muscles twitch.

There's enclaves of doctors who e.g. think everything is some obscure type of bipolar disorder. Listening to doctors above all else is, surprisingly, not a good idea. For everyone who had their life turned around by medication I have m

Yes, but it's not AC in the sense that most people think of AC, where it's oscillating around 0V. Cable comment was related to you mentioning 12 and 24, it didn't seem compared against 120V in your comment.

You break skin at about 50VDC. We could keep ~120V for distribution. There are problems tuning control loops of buck converters dropping more than about 30V (though you can just have multiple buck converters in a row). Correcting the power

You don't need AC for isolation, you need transformers. Isolated DC to DC is a big area of power supplies. You've also got cabling size backwards: you need thinner conductors for higher V due to lower I.

There's cases of US/Western companies getting screwed even worse. A Chinese person sees it as fair to save money any way they can, so it's relatively common to have your design modified on the fly FCC or other regulatory appr

I keep hearing this, but which positions are they and what job history are they looking for?

A bunch of past threads on this: https://killedbygoogle.com/ . Google engineers do not so much solve problems as create them and pretend to solve them.

Can you explain? As I understand it supercriticality is just something you need to deal with, not that you necessarily want.

Wait till you see how bad embedded code is. I bet most modems on the market are hackable even when nominally offline. We saw this with the ESP32.

My costing put it as positive compared to disk even without massive discounts, but physical volume is a problem, and cheaply constructed disks are volatile. There's an open space for cheap tape drives.

And as a follow up to this, are there any that are open to nontraditional students with an interest in research? Stopping everything you are doing for a minimum of 4 years is a complete nonstarter for the majority of working people, some of
