I like archive.org. I've mirrored thousands and thousands of their math/science ebooks into my apocalypse drive right next to the copy of wikipedia/wiktionary/wikispecies/etc and every binary/src package for t

That is a funny story. I used to dial into BBS' with modem commands. You could learn the screech patterns pretty well to know if something goofed before the computer did. Modem command sets are still quite prolific and if you ever

I hate to admit I only got into this after the EDA software and PCB fab services and Youtube soldering demos really hit the scene. I am a long time software engineer and it took the current ease of things to surpass my laziness barrier. I

China is the 9 day shipping component. I use JLCPCB most and SeedStudio because depending on the features each has their own pricing benefit. If you are comfortable with a paste syringe and the component count is small you can skip the st

Pro tip: There are enough PCB shops now that small designs like this can just be done in free EDA software in minutes, 10 boards in your hand with a stencil 9 real days later for less than $50 shipped. The stencil lets you paste the board

If security was private the companies involved could do it however they wanted, including using AI to profile. The TSA was created not for security but to shield the airlines from liability, and also a bit as a jobs program. In those regard

One thing to consider is anything that the government is allowed to do will eventually be maximized by technology. The slightest allowed oppressions will be amplified exponentially. Since tech is going to serious amplify anything we do th

I worked in a city department with an obscene full service Microsoft contract and running any Linux machines on the same network was a violation of the TOS and therefor not allowed or considered even when obviously appropriate.

Wouldn't you need about 4% per year to break even with inflation? Can you safely invest at 7-8%?

I assume the OP has to be making about at least $130k salary, approximately $200k in total compensation. That gives 42 years at the current lifestyle at a lifespan of 85 years. That assumes wages track inflation. Lifespan should be highe

If you are unsure then sit on it for a few years. That is barely enough money to retire comfortably the rest of your life. If you truly feel giving it away makes the world a better place then why not. Chances are though you using it to b

I see what you are saying. I mean zero as null constant. I've never even seen anyone try to assign a null value with some integer zero at some memory address. Using the NULL constant in C/C++ is near effortless and 0 just works

I disagree. nullptr is directly convertable to a boolean 0: #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { printf("%d\n", nullptr == 0); return 0; }

Scan the functions to get an idea of what is possible and a rough estimate of how everything fits together. Follow the code flow through an example to see how it is actually used.

Stabilize as in not so volatile. You could have a 1% deflation rate per year and that would be much more stable than the USD.

And it is directly convertible to a bool. The primary effectiveness seems to be with operator overloading where a NULL could trigger an integer method instead of a pointer method.

Nulls in strongly typed languages can get rather weird but from a C/C++ perspective it is the same as 0. nullptr is just a correctly casted 0.

Bitcoins' value is in its utility at the moment. Until it stabilizes it is poor as a money (a store of value) while still quite handy as a currency (exchange of value). If it becomes a more stable store of value than competing fiat c

Pointers in C are an incredibly simple concept. So simple it might take you years to master them.

Interestingly if you are doing a standard height four layer stack up with something like signal-power-ground-signal your stripline is much closer to the plane and default trace widths have a natural impedance much closer to what you want.

I love the RAM layout, a great benefit of being able to pick your pin layout on an FPGA. If you can do that it is a no brainer, but in general you don't really have to worry about routing your 100MHz RAM so carefully. That is pretty

It is worth noting that many of the penalties the Chinese government is pushing would be considered a direct violation of inalienable humans rights as recognized by our constitution. Their approach should have you terrified for their citiz

Generally speaking I'd say if the devs have to be there no matter what you want juniors. If you have a goal to complete use experienced devs. Have the experienced devs build a product and the juniors support it. At the end of most 1-
