How is he belittling his father? The piece is incredibly emphatic to his father. If anything, the author’s fault is agreeing with his father too much, to the possible exclusion of the rest of his family. I doubt his sister and mother will l

This is a really sad story. Frankly I’m shocked the conspiracy theorist paid up. Him then immediately doubling down and finally killing his marriage isn’t a shock. I both admire and detest the son for sticking with his Dad, the other family

If it helps, I went for the elegant all in one PCB version (dutifully replicating the e-paper driver schematic from Waveshare). I had to learn a fair bit about how to specify inductors (not something my similarly basic EE background covered

How was your battery life performance? I’ve been (slowly) working on a similar project and it’s been easy to get it running on my desk hooked into power but much more difficult to elegantly frame the panel that can just live on a wall.

After the success of DART, we should fund a DART variant to sit in cold storage for a quick asteroid response launch. 6 years isn’t necessarily a long time to develop and build a program like this from scratch. And deciding on every potenti

That disconnect is why some people argue the debt limit is unconstitutional - Congress authorized the spending and if they didn’t authorize enough revenue the executive is still obligated to spend regardless. To do otherwise the executive h

The field being relatively new also heavily influenced the scientists being so young. The age of modern quantum mechanics started in 1925. Heisenberg received the Nobel Prize for his 1927 work on the uncertainty principle in 1932 at the age

It seems the key sticking point is that the DOJ proposed forbidding “any contract between Apple and Google in which there would be anything exchanged of value.” In other words, give us our $15 -20 Billion a year.

Kinda sorta apparently. The rescinded the memo but not the freeze, apparently to try to dodge lawsuits? It’s confusing.

This was really well written. As someone who isn’t an electrical engineer but dabbles in making PCBs, I learned a lot. But most importantly, as the author ends, I will probably continue lowering my mental overhead and put in 1uF or 2.2uF ca

Also it wasn’t Kool-Aid but Flavor Aid. Not that it matters for the overall point but it’s an example of a brand being the generic name for a product category backfiring.

I think the prior Trump admin wasn’t nearly so caustic against trans people. It probably genuinely feels like more of a betrayal this time with years of build up of anti-LGBTQ sentiment. I agree the article would be better covering the prio

It’s pretty easy to Google Elon Musk and white supremacy. I did so, here’s two sources: https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/11/15/media/elon-musk-antisemit... https://www.theverge.com/2023&

Why should you or I give the benefit of the doubt to somehow who has been explicitly flirting with white supremacy in his tweets for months? He gave a Nazi salute. He intended it. If anyone doubts that, try to do the exact same movement at

It’s amazing nobody has sat him down and told him to stop throwing temper tantrums yet.

I reviewed the video, and there’s not very much ambiguity. He pretty clearly deliberately does a Nazi salute, twice.

He may have something like Asperger’s. No diagnosis has ever been provided so it’s all just conjecture. IIRC he’s self diagnosed. In any case I’m pretty tired of people making excuses for him based on this claim, as if it’s some sort of g

And US armed forces have been ordered to be friendly to UK and Canadian armed forces since WWI over 100 years ago (and even more friendly since WWII). That doesn’t go away quickly without good reason even with new orders. An attack on a Ang

It remains completely asinine that X feigns technical issues when users attempt to post banned material. The service should return “this link offends Elon, repent lest ye be smited” as that is the true situation.

The entire point of NATO and other treaties is that every signatory is willing to risk their country to protect the other signatories. It makes the game theory choice to attack stupid. But it’s all academic anyways. The US military would e

Assuming anti-vax administrators allow us to take new mRNA vaccines, which is far from certain. But yeah mRNA is a game changer for quick vaccine response. In theory after sequencing the virus a new vaccine could be in testing days later.
