The employer benefits the employer. The union benefits the employee, thus providing a balance in the power between employer and employee.

In nearly all cases, the lower the baud rate, the lower the bandwidth. You can come up with sufficiently pathological cases but indeed it’s the bandwidth that should be limited. EDIT: you should look at the shanon-Hartley limit. The bandwid

I bet a friend a nice bottle of wine that LK-99 was bullshit. Looks like I’m never getting that bottle but neither is he. It is, obviously, bullshit and always has been.

I was 50:50 on this being sincere. It’s hacker news after all.

Professionals _do not_ use it. It’s not helpful. If you get your placement right, routing won’t be so bad. If you get your placement wrong, the auto router WILL land you with an awful PCB

It really isn't -- unless you're talking something like bzip2 or some extremely nontrivial thing.

This write-up and project is from the same guy that discovered superconductivity in bilayer twisted graphene. Pretty impressive.

They have very different applications. Laser cooling has extremely low cooling power but can reach low temperatures. It’s good for cooling a gas of atoms or even individually trapped atoms. A dilution refrigerator, as are used in supercondu

That’s why you wear a PAPR, which decent employers provide.

do you _really_ think this is a technical issue?

Any sort of defect like this should disqualify the product. It’s embarrassing and alarming that this casting wasn’t scrapped.

Yeah but always OS X of maybe 10 years ago. They gave up the glossy thing. Also I disagree about it being unproductive. Not everyone is most productive in i3 or whatever.

Adam Demuth - https://youtu.be/HdJkZcyDQ4A?si=DcRBZfMe4Ei-Fq5Q Absolutely brilliant tool maker and grinding expert. Very good teacher, too.

I was extremely fortunate to have Travis Geiselbrecht as a mentor when I was a young programmer. He’s absolutely brilliant, humble, pragmatic, and an extremely organized thinker. One of the few kernel hackers with really good people skills.

Kinda? You'd expect flat bands from putting a copper atom into a big insulating supercell. The population of the d band is interesting, though. I don't find it super super compelling, but it's certainly not nothing.

That’s a pretty terrible rule. Unless you’re rolling over them with chair wheels, a bad BNC cable should be easy to spot by visual inspection. In my 20 years of instrumentation work it’s rarely the cable.

For an experimental physicist you basically debug until you get the data for your paper or until you find your sample is bad. So you’re debugging 99% of the time. In many fields it’s rare to build new instrumentation. You fab with well know

Without error correction, these benchmarks are going to be a bit weird and fluffy. It’s a bit like racing a half-built car. There’s the other bit of complexity that the connectivity matters a great deal. Supercomputers can be connected on a

Seems a bit shallow. JavaScript equals is an abomination, which to me seems like a larger issue, and people use it just fine.

Precisely. I get not going overboard and being a perfectionist. One has to ship. But also, you should have SOME pride in your work. You should want to not make total shit.
