I got a 3D printer earlier this year for no other reason that it was on sale. I cannot even begin to describe how much fun I've been having with it. Funny enough, I've had to print some of the things on the list. I have a pile of

Right here, though with some more experience(been ongoing for a few years now), but relatively similar situation. And to add on top of that, a large portion of the rest of my family has worked actively against me, my mom and my dad for deca

Let's be realistic: those specs are more in the realm of professional photographers/videographers. For most people, a DJI mini 2 is far more than sufficient(which is what I have and just came back from shooting a few pictures and

Thanks for this! Mind you, as much as I understand the importance and need of such procedures, that doesn't make me any less terrified. I've had all sorts of absurd injuries over the years all over my body and I am in no ways frig

Congratulations! I'm working on one in my spare time but I've decided to cram in as much features as possible(as far as not being able to cram all the features into an arduino or esp32 so ultimately I'm opting for a raspberry

Well.. It depends... If development is what you want to do, then it's not OK. In terms of losing your edge, I agree with you completely and I'm in a similar situation at the moment(though for different reasons): the company I work

I checked several calculators and it seems about right. To be completely honest I would have imagined that the price would have been much higher. Then again the Rolling Stones are at the top of my list so I am likely incredibly biased.

Great job! I am building a CNC router in my spare time and I ended up using a raspberry pi 3 since I want to cram in a ton of features and esp32s and stm32s are simply not cutting it. And cutting the boot time is something I spend stupid am

I never said it wasn't a good idea. Almost 6 months later it serves me perfectly well. There was no original app. The AC itself was here when I moved in, it's an obscure manufacturer no one has ever heard about and I recon it'

Most problems we all face on daily basis are completely trivial and those which aren't are often solved by someone. Which is something people often overlook and end up making products which no one really needs. Here's an example -

There was a multi threaded fork somewhere but I can't really see a real life scenario where this could be beneficial. If your setup is done well, your gains would probably be in the low double digit milliseconds. Surely the least signi

A few personal takes on the microcontroller/embedded rust side: I've been fiddling a lot with the stm32 and rust over the past several months. The fact of the matter is that having rust at your disposal feels like you are given a

This is awesome. I've got a resin 3d printer which is perfect for small details, I might give that a go. Ironically just as I got a dedicated windows computer beyond my workstation specifically for stuff like fusion 360 and whatnot.

They are neat. It's not as much in your face as a normal display plus they require almost no power so you can do awesome things with a SBC or an Arduino, smb32 or something else if you really want to make something completely off the g

Fun fact: I know a frontend dev who only used ie6 for development for as long as I knew him which sounded like masochism. But he had a point: "hey, if it works on ie6, it will work on a potato with a VGA stuck in it".
