Horizontally I can add as much displays as I want but as soon as my main ones are higher than a typical 32" height my eyes begin to suffer. Could be because top and bottom areas start to lie on too different focal planes. Horizontally

how deep is your desk to be able to use all that screen real estate? I already suffer eye strain with my 34 4k as it's already too high

I suffered more about having to trash my perfectly fine fullhd monitor(s) that worked great with linux until the day before, just because they decided to drop subpixel hinting with latest macos versions. Now I need 5-6 times more pixels to

Not sure about minis but that was true for macbooks ten years ago, when you could easily upgrade memory, storage and batteries, and you could install a recent and fully working linux distro when apple stopped supporting you. That unfortunat

Partly agree, but it's not like you don't have to use resistors anywhere else with Arduino and the likes. Just to light up a LED you will need some and usually there are plenty included in starter kits. At least where I live there

What about other degrees? physics or math come to mind, they're probably self-taught at software engineering but they may have a problem solving and abstraction oriented mindset that far surpasses any ability to solve leetcode problems

most common practice I've seen at least with typical arduino/rpi sensors is fixed address for the same chip, sometimes you can change one or two bits so you can have two/four of the same kind in the same bus, sometimes you ha

Always hated breakout board producers for this pull-up resistor thing, especially since they are often targeted at the educational market. Why would you solder fixed pull-ups guaranteed to work only when it's just you in the bus (and n

There are plenty of other components in a bike besides the drivetrain where shimano doesn't dominate at all (frame, fork, shock, wheels, tyres, brakes, dropper posts, ...). On MTBs SRAM has bigger market share even in the drivetrain co

most probably the m1 stuff introduced some conflict in some dead and unmaintained driver and it was better to ditch them than work on a fix

either those file names mean something and you don't have to look at the thumbnail or you should use a better naming convention... I wholeheartedly agree about the edgy teenager who just discovered bash

we used to say there's no security if you have physical access... any measure to protect physical access vulnerabilities is bound to cause annoyances and limit freedom of what you can do with your own devices sooner or later

I'm not sure the workout analogy really helps. Our body is really good at optimizing movements you do often enough. Do enough push ups, at some point you will become very good at pushing things, do not expect to be good at pulling thou

yeah, I believe it should be something like that. Anyways I think the author created some anticipation of giving an explanation about the reason of all those chips and the conclusion was just something like "there are many ICs because

you shouldn't change history once you make it public, how hard is that? that's the golden rule, if you promise something to be immutable, stick to your promise

It's amazing how this often comes from people that's quite accustomed to spend a considerable amount of time in learning their tools, being it complex math, programming, scientific instrumentation, scientific type-setting. But whe
