Backlash free motors are motors where the output shaft begins moving as soon as the motor starts moving. In particular, when the motor reverses direction there is no "slack" to pick up before the output shaft starts to move. The

It is absolutely reasonable to be skeptical of every package. You probably shouldn't be on the bleeding edge of packages and likely ought to have locally stored packages. You of course need to audit and improve your local store, but y

You know, about 90% of software development is CRUD. You can make a lot of money in CRUD. It may be true that it's not the cutting edge, but it is the thing that most people actually interact with when using a program, so it's p

I had an issue with the hard lip - it would make my butt go numb after about half a day. I switched to an Embody, and after spending the time to get it dialed in, I can sit in it all day with no complaints. As long as I remember to not kic

I'm working on PyWE, which is a set of batch scripts that help install and switch between multiple pythons, as well as manage virtual environments. It's inspired by pyenv, but it works in Windows. It's awesome because it&#x

I suspect a 'better' way of handling the landlord issue is for the government to be the 'landlord of last resort' but I'm pretty sure that would be a hard sell. Still, it would remove the profit motive. As to the f

The fire departments in most towns in America provide emergency medical services. 911 calls about health related things often result in a fire truck arriving, rather than an ambulance.

As to point 2, if there are enough homeless people in an area to turn an apartment building into a slum, there is already a de facto slum. It's just that it's a slum made of tents under a highway, rather than in a building.

Certainly there is an urban prejudice, but that just happens automatically when you average a country's worth of people. I think there is an east coast bias and an upper income bias, as well. I still think they are ok views of a mass

That's definitely true, but it does seem like there are some broad generational commonalities. I think using a 20 year definition of generation might be too broad when rapid societal changes happen. For instance, I think people of 197

That is a really compelling way of phrasing the problem with having most money concentrated in few hands. It strikes me as a companion to a lot of "free market" talk really advocating a monopoly with no rules for the monopolist.
