Are the pico's PWM channels true hardware PWM (truly on/off) or software-emulated PWM (flickering on "fast enough" to create an envelope) Some cheap, learning platforms like the micro:bit do emulated PWM which yields jit

This. A while ago, my wife got a call from a collections agency on my phone. They asked for her name, I asked "which one?" She said "I can only talk to ____." I said, "I understand but which one would are you lookin

Gotcha. The only thing I saw there that got close to addressing my curiosity is this: > Lightning is a layer on top of bitcoin that can handle an arbitrarily high transaction throughput over time, while still basing itself on bitcoin’s u

You're putting value in the companies dealing with crypto simply because people have put money into the operation. Anytime I see "this is going to be successful because of all this money that backers have put into it", I roll

I'm still skeptical of blockchain as a whole and hoping someone can help explain this to me. Blockchains (and cryptocurrencies that ride atop them) keep track of all the transactions going back to its inception. Those blocks get passed

Well too much of anything is harmful. If it isn't, it isn't "too much".

Yeah, I was recently discussing firearms with my brothers via FB Messenger and sites for finding ammo were blocked. We then tried several other types of sites to see if they were blocked. A lot of firearm related stuff, ammoseek, and piracy

Assessing that is tough and often doesn't scale well though.

Yeah, but the difference I believe is the FCC publishes the entire question pools to prevent third parties from selling a "dump". Ideally the pools are far larger than the questions you'd receive on the actual exam so trying

Yeah and they don't "call" at ports either! Stupid correct terminology! And "Lightering"? Please, they aren't getting lighter, they're just sitting out there needing groceries while they wait.

Where can I get PDFs like this printed and bound for convenient offline reading (like when on a plane)? I'm going to assume it can get stupid expensive for a one-off job.

Cost. Several of them are hosting cell and radio services so that "pays the rent" on the location. Dismantling and scrapping such a tower would be enormously expensive and bring no value to AT&T shareholders. If they're

All sheepshead I've ever caught (Galveston, TX) look like that. They regularly swim around below the piers and use those teeth to eat/bite off barnacles on the pilings. Not sure what's newsworthy here, BBC.

This article is super low on facts. Can someone locate and link to the state standards for this course? What course does it replace? Anytime there's a call to add something, you must ask what it is replacing. There's only so much
