For the complete monitor, a 13.3 e-ink screen alone has a retail cost of around 350-400 USD depending on where you look. There's also the FPGA and other components. We have commercial displays of similar size available around 800 usd

My first thought was similar like how incredible it would be to experience it in person. Second thought was, if we see this in a movie it might come across as your average cgi scene (without any epic music or slow shots) and doesn't st

That was interesting and correct me if I misunderstood. So, their CTO asked the team(of 3 members) to work through the Christmas week even when they had been working like crazy for weeks and are on the verge of burnout. The author asks them

If the usecases involve working on dark terminals all day or watching movies with dark scenes or if the general theme is dark, may be the new oled display will help reduce the display power consumption too.

No thanks. I'm not really keen on doxxing myself. But hey, if you are an IT employee and haven't had to go through those annoying trainings I'd be surprised and a little jealous.

There are services that are provided based on implicit assumption that their consumers are human and they are priced accordingly. You can't go to theater and instruct your computer(a.k.a. camera) to consume & learn or summarize th

Rapid is relative here isn't it ? It depends on the lifespan and the number of generations that can survive over a fixed time period. We hear about evolution or mutation in bacteria and viruses(whose lifespan is so small) all the time.

I prefer to have nerdtree because it can be used like regular file explorer tree in an IDE. When screen sharing with a colleague who might be unfamiliar with vim, it is easy for them to help us navigate if they see a tree compared to the ma

Agree. I should specifically mention their docs. The docs are easily approachable with plenty of clear and concise examples. I even have a pdf copy of the doc book for quick reference.

This is a good and extensive guide. Most guides out there work with dev boards that are powered by usb. It's great to see a section dedicated to power them with alternatives like LM-1117. I'm still hoping to find a guide dedicate

There are many reasons. First a manager is not a peer but brings in a sense of authority into the mix so the discussions will not be honest. Manager's inputs have a sense of finality and people will hesitate to comment or override them

If you ask a manager to hold an hour's meeting spread across 6 hours in 10 min slots you will get the funniest looks. Yet developers are expected to complete a few hours of coding task in between an endless barrage of meetings, quick a

The repo has 12.9k stars. I really want to believe that they all recognize this project for what it is. If someone had a real need for this and uses it, it will be interesting to know their reasons.

Akamai should also have visibility into the global traffic patterns. It would be nice to know if their data matches with cloudflare. Not just Akamai, even Netflix and other streaming services might have noticed this drop.
