PCIe doesn't have to be over an edge connector. PMC and XMC standards use board-to-board stacking. You can also do PCIe over cabling. What's the point of low speed single ended I/O into an FPGA module? Seems like a waste of e

I'm not familiar with the other standards this is being compared to. Why not use PCIe?

Well OK, but what about H.265? It's one louder, isn't it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Efficiency_Video_Coding

Upadacitinib has been a huge success for someone in my family. Spectacularly effective. This is after trying the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, 5-ASAs, adalimumab, ustekinumab, and vedolizumab, none of which offered more than minor relief.

What a great piece of writing. Clearly explained, nicely illustrated, got me really excited about the project.

I'd give it a try, but the "crotch rod" mounting strategy looks awfully uncomfortable. Engineering students have been building "underwater bicycles" for human-powered submarine competitions for decades! https:&#x2F

"Uncrewed" is the gender-neutral replacement for "Unmanned" in the robotics industry these days.

Starlink is offering 100x-1000x higher bit rates, depending on which Iridium service we're talking about. It's not really a direct competition.

Makes me miss the bad old days of Perl scripts and cgi-bin directories... It was, at least, simple.

Oh, is that the issue with all of this scroll-jacking bullshit web design lately? I'm not using the Designer's Choice mobile platform, so my experience just sucks? NYTimes is one of the worst offenders.

That's funny, my favorite thing about her writing is the calm, quiet narrative style. Kind of the opposite of the Brando Sando approach.

I think you've accurately described academia in general, and (if abstracted slightly further) the human condition. It's astonishing we've made any progress at all.

It's really /elimination/ of cable management. Essentially the same thing that makes printed circuit boards superior to wire wrapping. Turned a manual labor process into a (photo)lithographic process. Not that different from

You're really getting scammed if someone convinced you there's a market for cricket wool.

I worked on a "floating solar" project at Google and you're completely correct. Also, waterproofing is a nightmare, and the panels get dirty (salt, algae, bird shit) and stop producing power efficiently.

Gosh, I really miss that DOS text-based UI. Reminds me of my old reliable PS/2, which I kept using up until about 1997!
