At least for bycicle routing, Brouter also runs offline and is much more performant than both OSMAnd and OrganicMaps (and can be integrated into OSMAnd). To me it feels like OSMAnd heavily prioritizes feature develompent over performance,

I/O pads (and their drivers) take up a huge amount of space. For some simpler ICs their die size is determined by their Pads.

The data on EVs is that maintenance (at least on the drive train + battery) is not an issue, excluding air cooled designs like the Nissan Leaf which were doomed from the start. But hydrogen fuel cells are also expensive to maintain and have

The vast majority of germans use statutory health care insurance, with only 10% using private insurance. Many other aspects of healthcare follow a similar model, where parts are fully private, parts are non-government-but-quite-close-in-fun

You're basically talking about FPGAs. Sure, for >500 MHz (depending on the FPGA) you'll need to use the integrated transceivers, but they're flexible and support the physical layer of many protocols.

Even though most times my train comes every 15 Minutes (and in other places even every 5), I still check for: Disruptions and I try to catch the train exactly. I often get on the platform a minute before the train departs and rarely miss it

For some complex peripherals (especially wireless) this may be the case, but in my experience it's often much easier to write small abstractions for what you need in the mode you need it in (for serial, timers, IO, DMA, ...) than relyi

I'm no expert in the UKs domestic energy, but at least looking at electricity mix charts it seems to me like growth of renewables after introduction (lets say 2005) from <5% to ~40% compensates the drop in electricity produced from

An ATtiny really isn't good value for money, except when looking for something simple to use. The CH32V003 is $.10-$.20, quite usable in my experience and features a 16 kB ROM, 2 kB RAM and a 32-bit 48 MHz RISC-V. The PMS150 is availab

Because unless you resort to stuff like in-ram overlayfs which will also result in data loss, a lot of system software assumes it can write anywhere and will bitterly complain if not, even if it's not "real" data, and can be

You could also characterize the maximum braking ability of the train in front of you and the minimum braking ability of your own train and determine the needed distance for any given speed based on that. This would of course be more complic

I don't think that is really true. In principle, a slower train is quieter, but a tram usually has very tight curves in lots of places, resulting in screeching, as opposed to a (modern) mainline railway which has much wider curves. A t

You need the decryption keys, and yuzu only gives you instructions on how to extract them from your own switch (and is careful to stress that point). But nothing stops you from searching for the keys on the web and getting them from there.
