I wish they had a list of torrents they need seeders for the most. Right now I'd I want to seed their stuff (say 100x items) then I gave to go through their site and one by one select files, give it to a torrent client, see how healthy

While it may be correct as per the defneition of the word, it's usage in that manner is (as far as I can tell) extremely rare if not non existent in the industry (embedded systems, computer engineering, microcontroller work, etc). Ther

I would also love to hear replies to this. I used mbed in the past and have been fairly dissatisfied with it for two reasons: It uses c++ for the sake of using c++ instead of leveraging the extreme bonuses c++ provides over using c for embe

Thay sounds very resonable actually. If you are not a member, how on earth does a union have a mechanism to force you to pay a member due? What if I don't agree with how the union runs or the goals of the union?

This is absolutely thrilling! I often have to flip between bash and fish due to some archaic tools we wrote relying on bash in wierd ways, and the swap between how both handled logic like this was cumbersome. Glad to see one less potential

Go with OSH park instead of China. Their support is gnebuinky amazing, and the service in general. Is 5 days for a 2 layer board with 5 dollars per square inch of design for 3 boards, and free shipping. The company is active on Twitter and

Not really. China holds a very small portion (less than 10%) of USA debt. https://goo.gl/images/e6Jmrb

You don't pay for just the IC and PCB, you are also paying for the in my opinion, fantastic API and documentation that comes with the teensy. Plus, access to a platform that is fairly popular and its users seem to be more, well, advanc

Not always. I believe a common understanding is if it statically links with GPL code, then it spreads to your code. If it dynamically links then your program is not hit with GPL, as the user is able to change the dynamic library with thei

I looked into this in the past but had issues finding information about processing overhead for routing (or even switching) that much data. Could a, say, 2950 handle routing 40 gigabit worth of data over a network, assuming no crypto?

Why would they want their hq out in the boonies? And amazon (and many other tech companies) adjust their salary to cost of life in the area. The closer they are to a big city, the better, because they can attract more talent from the people

How isn't it making any gains? Anyone who has retirement savings invested properly (in stocks, not under a mattress or in a bank) is making use of these gains.

Types let you shift more of the testing load to the compiler instead of run time. Also, auto complete (not just string based) works much better because it's easier to reason via information that is exclusively in the realm of compile

What on earth is up with this mentality here on HN? I get that most of the people here are in tech and making probably at minimum 70k right out of college, with the higher end ones making 100k out of college. But surely you can't be se

What if I am totally fine working on that stuff if it means more money? Hell, I would be totally content working on weapons for the military if it means more money and interesting problems. I am aur enany others would too.

Not all embedded. Thankfully there is a sort of standard embedded mcu arch showing up via arm (would love risc v but I'll take what I can get). This has support via mainline clang/llvm and gcc, and isn't much work to get a mo

Maybe we can somehow refer to each other? I wrote a guide for a custom board I made running Linux, but it's very low level up to tge stage of getting the kernel running with a minimal user land. I would be happy to refer to you at the

The word engineer is a protected title in the USA, sure, but it's only relevant when dealing with the gov't. I and many others have the word engineer in their official job title, but both me and the company are fully aware I never

Wow, what a massive total waste, shame on netflix. In the early days people relied heavily on those reviews, and spent hours writing those reviews. I understand them wanting to keep that data for data analysis purposes, and I understand the

This will bite you in the ass in the future. If you are in the USA, some entities who you should defneitly pay attention to do initial communication only through mail. For example, if the IRS wants something for you they will never call you

Battle field 4 and battlefield 1, both of those games max out my cpu (3570k overclocked to 4 Ghz) and leave my 1070 twiddling it thumbs based on task manager and software to see GPU utilization. Either my cpu is slower than it should be, yo

More performant I am not sure. Would have to see specific benchmarks comparing and the assembly for the newest gcc and newest clang. The reaosn why I vastly prefer clang is for three main reasons. Firstly, clang and llvm are written in c++

Yes, it will. Sure, it won't do wonders with 0.5mm pitch bga's, but 217 pin 0.8mm ones are doable even with a cheap Chinese hot air station. That's how I did these boards. https://brainyv2.hak8or.com/

I totally agree, the lack of documentation via types and lack of smart autocomplete (which I rely on very heavily for API discovery) is not only why I never got into tensor flow, it's also why I never got into languages like python. I

I agree with a few comments here about how the field seems to skew heavily towards the older range, but based on my job hunt in NYC there are very few jobs like this. After a week and a half I have no interviews even though I have a few bee
