For anyone else interested, I found this tutorial really useful for learning to create a schematic and lay out a PCB with Kicad, then export it for manufacturing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5phi3nT8OU . I created a set

Tavis Ormandy (of Google Project Zero) has a pretty convincing post arguing that relying on browser extensions that modify the DOM (which includes [almost?] all password managers) is a bad idea: https://lock.cmpxchg8b.com/pa

I work at Google's Portland office (well, at least when there's not a pandemic). We're a pretty normal engineering office—although smaller than many, so there are fewer team choices than in larger offices. Google has become r

Even if you're not required to file a return (e.g. because you have no income), you are still allowed to file. I think the site helps you file (to claim a credit) even if you're not required to file.

You could write a monolithic kernel using composition for your code structure. It would just be composition at build time rather than at runtime. It seems pretty hard to write a microkernel without using composition, though, since the runti

Yes, we have a style guide and enforced auto-formatting tools (a la gofmt or clang-format). We didn't in the past, and I like the present much better: it frees me up while writing and reviewing code to not have to think about formattin
