A great inspiration to someone dabbling in launching a "lean" hardware business. How is $15,637.68 in raw materials calculated -- assuming $300 unit price and you sell 100 units? The rPI is $40-80, and the capture card is $35? The

I have no idea what's going on, but I love the UI -- definitely targets the power user well.

Wish there was an explorable explanation for this concept that's not as verbose for the layman like me. It's still unclear to me about how the mathematical explanation (approximating a continuous function with finite series) expla

Is this based on a paper/demo previously posted on HN? A vaguely remember seeing the faces elsewhere.

I'm having a hard time following this. Is there a summary of this "Freenode drama" from the sidelines?

Mechanical inductors, capacitors, and even transistors? That's and incredible feat. Developing intuition about how to put the components together to build something like an oscillator or a flip flop is a must for electronics enthusiast

Wow. How? Node.JS needs a "full-blown" OS to compile and run... right? And that's not something you could emulate efficiently using wasm? Right?...?

Low quality JavaScript shouldn't break your checkout. This is the type of issue that could have been caught by aggressive type checking.

For many of the points it's more like "generalist data scientist, specialist data scientist," Nothing wrong with specializing.

Firefox still has a few UI elements that look like they haven't changed in 2 decades. Probably still using XUL. Wonder how all these UI changes pile up onto a very old codebase.

With serverless functions being the hype, along with things like Next.js, Node isn't going away as a popular "backend for frontend" technology.

They should! Fees are tiny and transactions/confirmations are fast -- unlike the nonsense that's currently going on with Ethereum and Bitcoin.
