Just to give some balance here, I'll state a seemingly unpopular opinion. Personally, I have not had issues doing complex coding questions in interviews, or at work. And it becomes clear pretty quickly on the job, when your co-worker h

From the article "The simplest method of beamforming is delay-and-sum (DAS)". Measure distance from a point (couch) to each microphone, delay the signal in time domain by the time the sound takes to travel from point (couch) to mi

From my experience, it's still not a 100% replacement. For example, there are no drivers for a pretty common steering wheel (Logitech G923). There is a driver for an older version of the wheel that kind of works, but no TRUEFORCE suppo

Take a year off. Ideally some time in June to maximize the tax benefits.

Labor is just way too expensive. At this point I wonder if I should stay a software engineer, or switch to construction. We've looked down on construction workers a bit too much.

Got it, missed that part. Still, assuming efficiency can't get past 100%, 100% boost can be achieved only on something that already has only 50% efficiency.

I couldn't get past the first two paragraphs without the article losing all credibility. > And although there are many different kinds of electric motors, every single one of them, from the 200-kilowatt traction motor in your electr

Drugs are mostly a side-effect of other psychological issues, and it's in a control theory sense a positive feedback loop. You can't eliminate drugs, but you can work on the underlying problems.

You're comparing top names with run of the mill engineers maybe, which isn't fair. And maybe you need to discover talent rather than buy talent from the previous generation.

What if there are other ways to improve intelligence other than throw more money at running gradient descent algorithm?

Last I checked the researcher salaries haven't even reached software engineer levels.

60%+ of cost on my bill in northern CA is delivery, not generation. Which is dumb, cause it's a fixed cost charged as variable, but that's a separate discussion.

I had someone throw up next to me during the first few hours of a 10 hour flight after using Oculus Quest. Not fun.

The high-end version of this is Synthstrom Deluge. I love that piece of gear. Even the wood on the sides aesthetic is the same.

We have a bunch of new methane monitoring satellites, so it is very observable and enforceable.

I did feel a disadvantage myself when I was job searching a few months ago, but for me it was my personal attitude coming through more than anyone judging me by my age. I felt that I just cannot get excited anymore about some of the bullshi

I wish they dug into how this monstrosity is powered. Assuming 1V and 24kW, that's 24kAmps.

The article has weird reasoning. If we remove tailpipe emissions, which are by far the largest, then brake/tire wear emissions become visible and are next in the list to deal with. But we won't deal with the latter before the form

Sounds like you want Julia. It looks like Python, but also has, what you ask for. You can even run Python from Julia, so that alleviates the problem with a lack of libraries somewhat.

AFAIK, salaries for electrical engineers are very low compared to software engineers so there isn't much interest in working on EE problems. Unless it's your passion and you're willing to give up a good salary.

The costs after you susbcribe are also insane: $420 for a 15min online chat. I got the same type of appointment for something around $20 directly from Cigna. And that's with a high deductible account.

Cause labor is cheaper in Nevada, people drive cheaper cars and there are less cars in Nevada on the road in general, so you are less likely to get into an accident. These are just the top reasons off the top of my head.

Thanks, but I'd rather take the one without the GPLv2 license one commit earlier.
