Hey, I wrote this article. Just wanted to really thank you for saying that. I also felt like "why didn't anyone tell me this" so I wanted to share it :-)

Oof, that reduction in bandwidth is huge. Am I correct that this only applies to outgoing WAN traffic? Incoming/internal is still free?

That is surprising to me. I am so tired of commenting on random lines with the usual "commenting on a random line for the sake of threading" apology.

A few months ago we switched from Tuesday-through-Monday to Monday-through-Sunday and on call stress decreased. After a weekend of on call, it sucks to have yet another day of on call on Monday. This overpowered all other reasons (most of t

After the Apple Watch came out, I wanted to build something like this. Of course, an idea being an idea, I didn't. Anyway, my idea was this: one drunken night in Berkeley, a neuroscience PhD told me that it was possible to put a patch

Woah. A bit of reading shows that the signal would be incredibly weak, especially because of shielding. I wonder what other ways there might be to detect it. Someone else mentioned literal vibration, but I figure a contact mic would already

What I learned is that the Northern Line has the most noise complaints (from people who live near it) of any TfL line!

I don't know if a contact mic really has any filtering though; it's just a piezo element that I plug into a pre-amp. However, what you're saying is completely legit. I read that I might want to lay a large, sturdy thing on th

Well, I was just going to put a contact mic in my cellar. My understanding is that this is the best way to pick up low-frequency vibrations. I know very little about audio engineering. I wonder what else I might be able to use to pick up th

This is SO cool. I am actually currently working on a project to record the sound of the London Underground passing under me. We can very clearly hear the Northern Line under us. It's < 30 meters below us. I have become obsessed wit

I can't find any citations for this, and it doesn't make sense. Is this AI slop?

Having moved a ton of books multiple times, they are definitely bad. But not nearly as bad as records, where boxes that fit well are expensive, and you have to worry about them getting damaged whether from heat or pressure!

My son, 4 years old, himself has > 100 books. So at least some people born today will have a connection to physical books! I don't disagree that this is probably getting less popular, since of course physical copies used to be the o

This post is a bit dramatic. My wife and I have 1-2k books. We know multiple people who have such libraries. I don't think they're going anywhere. And this is even though I have a Kindle.
