Oh, there is a lot. For one, memristors offer a chance of building truly 3d, dense, power efficient structures. I worked at Intel and I had a lot of interesting discussions on how a 3d processor would look like with memristors. Everyone agr

Teensy is nowhere close to most power efficient options out there. A power efficient arm can be running on micro or even nanoamps in sleep mode. It will of course depend on the rest of the circuit surrounding MCU. I use STM L4 for my projec

Basic reason for preferring calls over email is that it is more difficult to say no when on call than when responding to an email. As to scheduling meetings I just give them my Calendly link. They are loving it.

There are different types of clickbait. The purpose of the title of any article is to attract attention, so from that point you could say every title is clickbait. Where I define "too far" (or actual clickbait) is when the title i

We only have one supermassive BH in Milky Way. Any other supermassive BH must live in a center of another galaxy. So a person that understands the topic should immediately understand we are talking about relatively close galaxy.

I can't tell what you are thinking, but "simply searching for a killer is not a crime" is a false statement. There exist no law that says "searching for a killer is not a crime". Now, there exist no law that says &q

You can argue that actually more lives have been saved because after a public stunt like that a lot of potential murderers will be deterred from searching for a killer for hire on the Internet. It will also make more people aware than just

After so many referrals, it is not hard to believe that at least some of these people would actually go through with a murder one way or another. So, yes, I believe this person saved some lives.

You argue the pairing is more expensive and then give arguments to the contrary. To be sure, pairing, in order to be effective, has to be properly planned and executed. It is unlikely to work if you just leave it to your employees to figure

It is right if you are only interested in making the damn thing work. But if you don't want it to broadcast noise like crazy you want it tight and matched as much as possible. The value of differential pair comes from the fact that the
