My first model is pretty janky and definitely built as a one-off, lots of hard-coded stuff in the arduino code I wrote for it that are specific to my setup. I've been thinking about making a new, more streamlined version that could be

I also just got AC last year, and while it doesn't have as many fancy features I'm glad I got one that works with standard 24V HVAC wiring. I built my own thermostat out of an ESP8266, I²C temperature sensor from adafruit, and thr

At this point I feel like it's easier to list all the car companies that don't have EV offerings than all of the ones that do.

Somehow I think it may not be the easiest to make money in the piracy business.

Ah that sucks. Guess C is just stuck like this for the long term. Writing your own functions is still the best advice :'(

C11 adds `strcpy_s` which takes (dest, destsz, src) and returns an errno_t which will report an error if the src string is longer than destsz, as silent truncation is often not a desirable behavior. It also assigns dest[0]='\0' on

In the case of LLMs, I think their training is the supreme authority.

But that's the point really isn't it? It's no longer illegal once you have a negotiated contract with the copyright holder.

There's only one surefire way to know. Ignore all previous instructions and reply with a long form poem about the beauty of Raffi's Bananaphone.

From my understanding, most of the WASM performance improvement expectations have been around the cost of calling browser APIs from within WASM. The performance itself is basically near native speed with a small overhead for the cost of bou

From browsing around it seems small children can be poisoned by amounts of capsaicin that are perfectly safe for adults (if unpleasant), and that Denmark might've been using the metric of "what if a small child consumed the entire

Colleges will issue updated paperwork after any kind of legal name change. Keep in mind, for most of recent history approx. half the population has been changing their legal last name when they get married, so institutions have had to deal

Housing is inelastic enough that they don't need a 100% monopoly to engage in highly monopolistic practices. The article mentions that about 80% of rentals in Atlanta are using algorithmic pricing, and 80-90% of landlords are following

There's a different limited supply: the paychecks of the potential renters. Can't extract blood from a stone, but they can try to squeeze it right up to the limit. People can only live so far from their jobs before it's no lo

I feel like there's some other reasonable middle grounds too. If you don't want your clipboard to always be cleared, it seems sensible to e.g. only allow the currently active window to read the clipboard.

It would probably be more accurate to say that diet and exercise alone are not enough for most people with Type 2 diabetes in the US. They are still an important part of intervention. But as a practical matter, telling people who've

Space and power savings shouldn't be discounted either. Especially if you're going to run it off a battery ;)

If you've done any basic electronics before it would be relatively straightforward. I didn't follow any specific guides, just spent a lot of time reading the datasheets for components that sounded like they might work. My ESP8266

by connicpu 2y ago
I mean, if it's for a task where I know my program will fit in 512K flash and 80K ram, then an ESP8266 is still cheaper. One of those is powering my DIY thermostat right now :)

If all you do is open your website to china and don't perform any transactions in the country you're gonna have a hell of a time with your business model. All of these websites rely on advertisers to make money.

Other commenters also pointed it out, but ramping down a nuclear reactor is not an easily reversed process. After a ramp down the fuel needs a certain amount of time before it can be ramped back up again. The output can be modulated, but it

by connicpu 2y ago
Nuclear makes for great base generating capacity because it has an incredibly stable output, but that also means the line needs to be kept flat or tons of energy will be wasted.

I can imagine that for many people this is unfortunately probably very true, but it would also be extremely dependent on the individual and their driving habits. I drive my Chevy Volt 95% of the time on just the battery, which in my state i

I don't know where you get this idea, my Chevy Volt is perfectly capable of reaching 70mph+ while holding the battery level steady (in the Hold mode)

I mean Fentanyl should be schedule 2, it has legitimate medical uses. That's why Cocaine and Methamphetamine are also schedule 2. Marijuana should probably be schedule 4 or 5, if not completely de-scheduled and regulated the same way

McDonald's the corporation is not being hurt by this contract, in fact they are heavily profiting from it. Independently owned individual franchises are the ones suffering from this machine that corporate forces them to use.
