ISO is not publicly funded and "recommends" that end users pay for the norms despite many European standards organizations being government funded and operated. If some of these organizations were to release ISO-derived norms to t

I feel that the previous generation of MLP with Twilight Sparkle was actually pretty good. Despite being made by a company who wanted to sell toys. Most cringe episodes are the first and last two of the season, but the slice of life in the

Reversing in order to achieve interop is explicitly legal in EU. Well unless you have to break DRM in process.

This should actually happen on a rolling basis. We should be nationalizing cellular networks, physical internet infrastructure and generic drug manufacturing because they are critical and don't really innovate besides following the slo

Well we tell railroad operators how to do their job every day so that multiple companies running the actual trains can coexist and compete. Or even better, we own them publicly. I don't really see a problem in that, do you? Since smart

Not really. If this goes on, EU will simply cozy up to China a bit more. Let's see how Washington will react to that.

Nobody asks them and I've seen attempts to prevent assistants of members of Parliament running as candidates. They have the know-how and the moat is pretty narrow so the acting politicians felt the need to widen it somewhat.

But the money stay in the country and increase the chance that the employee eventually starts their own business, possibly using the cheaper workforce as an advantage.

Nope. None of my below 30 colleagues know SQL. They use ORM in REPL or visual tools.

My experience is the opposite. I don't get addicted. Obsessed with a topic for a while? Sure! Compulsively repeating some behaviors, like checking HN? That's me! But once I get distracted by something interesting, it's like t

> learning that the analog readings for a Pico and ESP32 come at a massive 16 bit precision (a number between 0 and 65536) Sigh. No they don't. RP2040 ADC has output resolution of 12 bits with ENOB of about 8.7. MicroPython probably

I did as well. From an espressif employee. It's hard for them to iterate. Every batch must sell so any improvements come really slowly.

The real question here is, why the fuck are you not using a restricted LISP dialect, generating an S-expression using macros.

It was a hit in our Czech school as well. Son of a diplomat posted in Finland brought it back here.

Since then a single farmer feeds thousands of people. We are producing more and with much less effort than we did before we have started farming and had to post the guards. Yet the guards remain and insist that they are still needed.

I love how cheap those CC1101 are! How come they are not more widespread?! https://jlcpcb.com/partdetail/TexasInstruments-CC1101RGPR/C2... Spamming at 2.4GHz is boring.

No, the issue was caused by backporting a patch A but not backporting a patch B. Sadly in this case the overall behavior after applying just A was broken when issuing direct IO writes.

Yes. Once it's signed by somebody accredited to review it for safe train use.

Right. Mandate that the software is delivered with CI pipeline running in the client's environment with 100% reproducible builds and verify checksums.

I don't know. I can easily lift my phone by the USB-C cable. And as for the connectors, sure USB-A usually has 4 through-hole mounting and through-hole live pins[^1] so the connection to the board is rock solid, but USB-C connectors, d
