Hm? Double the voltage means twice the wattage for the same amperage, i.e. the same copper requirements. If the constraint is heat that it is indeed how it works.

Very cool stuff, as a baseline I have about zero interest in a compile to JS language but this seems like it might actually lift more than it weighs! Really appreciate the documentation, examples and terseness of the code. P.S. Nobody calls

So the cost is you add another tool (yarn) to your toolchain and this is better than NPM because your deps are all in one folder and just mapped through a header file instead of being duplicated for every project, am I understanding that ri

I've found the best strategy here is to do rate control on your work on the interface between you and your job. I essentially just try to constantly overperform slightly and any gap that widens between my capability and the demands of
