There is more to it than just accounting for inflation. Apple has done a number of other things in the meantime, including designing and manufacturing their own chips, that have changed the economies of this. Until the very recent RAM price

In a perfect world, sure. But people also want phones these days that are physically durable, have some degree of waterproofing/water resistance, maximum battery life, etc. Many of the demands and expectations of a modern phone aren&#x

Most common advice is that you have to be at least one of the sides somehow. Reddit famously did this with lots of sock puppet accounts to foster discussions and create pseudo activity. In your case, I'd probably start by reaching out

From the blog post, it appears that the eyes and head have some amount of actuation. So it meets the robot criteria, even if just barely.

Start with one of the cheap kits on Amazon. A good chunk of the learning curve is software/design/workflows. On the machine side, learning how to properly secure your work pieces, and find the right bits, speeds, and feeds is anot

I require payment upfront before work starts. Simply make it clear you are not a bank and are not extending credit. If your invoices are small setting up a recurring credit card payment is an option with various payment platforms.

The thing this article does not cover is that the average journalist has no sway. Most readers don't want the opinion of some random person covering a space, so "CEO Said a Thing" is the headline that draws the reader in. Man

It doesn't matter on the corporate identity either.

I remember, and ran a node for a while. I think it is alive today in spirit through forums like this. The original needs and limitations that drove the creation of Fidonet have been dead for decades though.

How is the whitelist built and managed? I have several thousand emails that I would need to whitelist, many that don’t email me regularly, but I wouldn’t want them to get hung up or worse receive an auto response that I expect them to pay m

Considering that no major phone or carrier has embraced that model why would you expect it to suddenly appear here?

Nothing works perfectly in all conditions and scenarios. Sensor fusion has been the most logical approach now, and into the foreseeable future. Computer vision does not work exactly like human vision, closely equating the two has tended to

Sources are primarily boating forums, dockside conversations, etc. In theory your boat in right in the sweet spot of recommended power range at 60HP. I don't know all the background on it, so all kinds of potential problems, but I woul

Yes and that range is at higher RPMs where the Sharrow props have reduced benefit.

For marine applications dual drives are common as it enables better rotational control for maneuvering. The redundancy aspect is also a factor, but moreso for applications where you are going to be far from shore. For tugboat and ferry type

For the most part the Sharrow props have not proven to be much of an improvement, particularly for the high price. The tests that have shown "significant" improvements have frequently compared the Sharrow to a sub-optimal prop. Fe

I don’t think anyone has ever tried to publish something disproving all of the gait analysis claims. That would be an odd sort of thing. But I have not seen anything come to something that we could call productized and reliable. It’s relati

Resolution and positional accuracy are very poor. It’s more like ‘an approximate bag of water detector’. Gait analysis is complete fiction. Especially with a non-visual approach like this.

I am surprised you could look at that page and expect to receive a quality product. The images all look like really low grade AI-generated renderings. The mug in the cupholder and the giftbox image in particular don't stand up to even

FWIW I've had good luck with Intertek https://www.intertek.com/ for most testing and certification processes across a variety of products.

Wait, now we have to deal with Carriage Line Return Feeds too? I wonder if the person who had the idea of virtualizing the typewriter carriage knew how much trouble they would cause over time.

I think this was primarily about speeding up the measurement time. With just two electrodes you had to wait for the device to achieve equilibrium with the material being measured. If the concentration of oxygen on the probe side of the barr

You definitely don't have to be god tier anything, you just need to know at least a little more than the companies you are consulting for. This kind of work has been my primary income for the last 4 years or so. Nowhere near on the sam

It will be interesting to see. At this point, I think much of what is coming out of Tesla in both words and actions is stock price theater. They "fired up" a Cybertruck production line and we all see how that went.
