Exactly the same boat here. No email notifying me of the change either. Plus, what about all the third party web sites that offer nice buttons that say "Sign in with Google"? If you used your legacy Gapps domain to authenticate, d

Totally understand. No intention of building, but I am working on a project of a similar scale (very different context) and would be curious if you're available for contract work. (ie, review my work for best practices, etc.) Given

Had a blast reading through this and your CGZ work. Nice job! Can you post the schematics? I'm really curious on how you changed things (LCD bias, debounce circuit, etc.) Also, can you post a pic of the back with components populat

I remember the first time I learned about the Game Genie. I was 12 when I walked into our local game store late one night and saw Super Mario Bros 3 being played on the big screen, except Mario had 99 lives, jumped higher than the screen, a

Working on a hardware startup. Building an epaper based tablet. In fact, one of my test PCBs just arrived earlier today from OSHpark[1]. Still a WIP but I'm looking forward to cooking some electronics tonight on a hotplate :) I love

Good analogy. It really depends on the needs of the individual contributor. For example, if you know what needs to be done, and you're blocked for one reason or another, let me know. The key here, and the point of my original post, is

As someone who has purchased the PS4 version to play on a PS4 (amateur) console, I found the game passable, yet "distracting". I've accepted to continue playing the game after the January/February patch. I am a little c

I've done something similar with an esp8266 + 14segment alphanumeric display[1]. That being said, NTP only returns GMT. You still have to hardcode your timezone and whether DST is active or not, right? [1] https://github.co

I think I had the same publisher. Two books done in 2010 & 2011, same basic results. What's worse, once they hit the shelves they were already out of date. The publisher had no interest in a second edition. But, the books look aw
