For designing with basic components I recommend starting with microcontrollers on a breadboard. There's plenty of great youtube channels that talk about this stuff as well, like GreatScott and Ben Eater

I fear this could also have plenty of unintended consequences. Depending on the tax, maybe more things will start being shipped in Teflon coated cardboard.

You can; you wouldn't be able to if you stripped your windows install of all the files that still allow 32-bit programs to run

Granian is more of a web server for python that just happens to be implemented in Rust. Python developers using Granian wouldn't need to know or write any Rust, just like they don't need to know or write any C in order to use pyth

I feel like it's safe to say the bulk of that was generated, and/or they're including all code imported as vendored dependencies

I think as the pool of knowledge balloons exponentially in size it becomes nearly impossible for a doctor to be familiar with all of it, so their only choice is to deeply specialize in one field and limit the breadth of patients they can tr

I wonder if the existence of USB-C has significantly increased the number of 5K1 resistors being used. Even on my own projects where I'm manually soldering maybe a couple boards I tend to just pick 5K1s out of part ordering convenience

I'm assuming power efficiency would be a big part of it, that tends to be the draw for ARM servers

by connicpu 4y ago
Even better the higher volume you go. On DigiKey right now, a reel of 100,000 5K1 resistors is literally $105.00. At two per USB-C port, that's a unit cost of 0.21 cents per device. Literally a fifth of a penny! Plus maybe a few extra

Yeah, many urgent care doctors here will prescribe antibiotics just to get the patient out of there as fast as they can even when they almost certainly have a viral infection

For understanding what's going on all the way down to the ISA level, I'd say something like a PIC microcontroller is even easier since they tend to have only around 50 instructions, though RISC-V has the advantage that it could sc

It would very much depend on who you spoke to from the 1600s. If you spoke to an enlightened philosopher or scientist sure, but trying to explain it to people in a rural village may have a worse outcome for you.

True, on an individual level that probably represents the best benefit. Anyone who actually cares would also know to go through the settings to check the defaults on all of those things with a new router too.

Mutexes aren't necessarily fair, and there's some good reasons you may not want true fairness in your lock[1] (that said, most implementations try to be as fair as they can be without introducing too much overhead) [1]: http:&#x2

I got a brand new router recently, IPv6 was still disabled by default! I honestly can't understand the reasoning, I don't even buy the internet visibility argument because the default incoming connection rules for IPv6 after I ena

If I wanted something that was more akin to putting legos together that's definitely the way, but I found it quite enjoyable to go down to the low level of electrical design, and any application that can be accomplished by flipping a s

All I have to do is skim any privacy policy these days and virtually every cloud service has written theirs in a way that I can pretty much guarantee they're selling my data to someone. I picked up electrical engineering as a hobby bec

I think the more troubling concern would be how much it would cost to manufacture that many of the e-ink cards, 5 figures easily

Ah right employment law is much stricter in Europe. In that frame, citing not being fun seems even more insane

"pause the world" usually refers to garbage collectors having to stop all threads, whereas in Rust and C++ allocation/freeing of memory does not have to make any threads other than the current one wait (unless your memory all

That's the point of the bidding process for government contracts. If your boycott makes your services more expensive, then you're less likely to receive the contract, but it would still be your choice. And it doesn't apply at

Actually the government very specifically does not have the right to retaliate against you based upon protected speech you make, the entire point of the first amendment.

I still cannot wrap my head around the idea of making a boycott illegal. If it's not accompanied by speech, what is the difference between someone who actively avoids a product or one who simply would not have purchased it in the first

Many many many teams writing C won't be using C23 the day it's out, but they have to get these changes in now if they want the people who always use a 10 year old standard to have these features available 10 years from now

A leap minute once per ~century probably amortizes to a lot less effort. A leap minute is a bigger deal to implement, but you do it a lot less often. And the sun being off by up to a minute isn't a huge deal for humans

Higher interest rates will discourage the investor class from snatching up homes they don't intend to live in though. Not all of them of course, but the demand for living in homes is far less elastic than that of those using them to ma
