   Looks cool! Is this meant for use in embedded applications? I couldn’t find info about compile targets and performance on resource constrained systems (in other words, can I target an Arduino?)

   This is a great example! Thanks for writing it up. I appreciate especially the 200 number for unaided speech, really puts the power of technologically aided communication into perspective

   Thanks for pointing this out, I think for most people bankruptcy is thought of as the event horizon of a black hole, where in reality it’s a debt restructuring that really only affects the CEO/board, who, you know, are supposed to take

   Yep, there are different grades of crude (referred to as light vs heavy and sweet vs sour). Alberta tar sands crude is in the heavy/sour range. The differences in the grades of oil require different tooling to process and may be more o

    Wow really disappointed to see this, yet another great service gobbled up by a massive corporation. Yet another overly saccharine acquisition letter about there being no better place for the tool than in the hands of one of the big tech com

    Congrats to all part of the Dark Sky team! There’s a lot of gloom in here about the death of the android apps, which is sad to be sure, but there’ll be more good apps. Anyways, an exit and aquisition by Apple is exciting and worth feeling g

    As a kid I figured out the perpendicular connection trick, the height of a “1” tall (flat plate kind of) piece is the same as the width between two pegs, so you can wedge em in there for neat reasonably sturdy perpendicular connections. (A
