The '7660 is good for low-power and is my go-to DIP-8 part when I need a half or double voltage supply on a breadboard.

id Software should have just partnered with a heavy metal band that jointly released an album of Doom music you could put in your stereo while you play the game.

I'd much rather invest one powerful machine that cand do work and games instead of two that take up extra space and generate more e-waste.

Most look like they were done by a beginner programmer on crack, but every once in a while a correct one appears.

Impressive, but there is a noticeable lag after modifying the terrain or moving the camera. Is there a way to know if the browser is using the GPU or CPU for rendering, and is there are way to see the milliseconds per frame?

"resistance level trivial" Could literally replace the control software with a potentiometer (a resistor)! :)

But you said "phase is 180 degrees" which is 1π, while Barkhausen instead says integer multiple of 2π.

Sounds like you are stating https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barkhausen_stability_criterion (1921): "if A is the gain of the amplifying element in the circuit and β(jω) is the transfer function of the feedback path,

Let's not forget the cost for making and transporting a large thick glass tube and the associated electronics and energy required to heat metal and liberate electrons and guide them using magnetism. I too am much happier with LCDs and

CRTs are mostly empty vacuum and won't take that much space when crushed.

Not self-hosting if you actually need email does not address the elephant that self-hosting email doesn't actually do email. I say this as someone who self-hosted for several years but had to give up because important emails were disca

Congrats on getting something that functions, despite the glitches, which are probably due to crosstalk and other noise over the rat's nest wiring.

Yes and no. A problem with 8-bit and 16-bit for desktop and servers is the limited memory address space, so the compiler has to insert extra instructions to deal with things like updating the segment registers. And likewise if you need to d

Not just more power-efficient, but also a little more memory efficient because pointers are only half as big and so don't take up as much space in the cache. Lower-bit chips are also smaller (which could translate into faster clock and

Just reading about this...turns out nommu Linux can use vfork(), which unlike fork() shares the parent's address space. Another drawback is that vfork's parent process gets suspended until the child exits or calls execve().

Indeed, UTF-8 "was designed for backward compatibility with ASCII: the first 128 characters of Unicode, which correspond one-to-one with ASCII, are encoded using a single byte with the same binary value as ASCII, so that a UTF-8-encode

Another thing to keep in mind when compiling is adding more cores doesn't help with link time, which is usually stuck to a single core and can be a bottleneck.

No constraints when writing. Not having to fit your thoughts into some predetermined format on the computer helps.

Looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_software_bugs there has been several major bugs, e.g. in 2012 Knight Capital Says Trading Glitch Cost It $440 Million, or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#
