I used a library I found on github for a similar project - here's their demo page: http://deibelman.github.io/dart-mic/demo.html For my project, I was charting the dominant frequency for fun.

That's beside the point - the point being that you asserted that the "Real Bed" qualifier was referring to not getting a couch in an apartment, like couch surfing. Judging from your post history, you will argue on any point p

As I see it, the customer didn't get what they paid for. Instead of getting back a partial refund for what they didn't receive (4 beds vs 3 beds) they were refunded the fees that AirBnB charged - which according to AirBnB was beca

Did you visit the link provided? There is clearly a "Room type" classification, which would be used to indicate that you're renting a room in a house, a whole house, a bed in a room, or a couch in a room, for example. And the

If you're going to go as far as running it in an emulator... then why not just write something that works in process and avoids the whole visual feedback / physical input loop altogether? It's how bots are written for MMO

Seems realistic - not everyone's internal clock matches with the 24 hour day. This guy let himself live on a 28 hour day, but the tradeoff was that instead of 7 chunked out pieces of living per week, he had 6. So when is the weekend? S

We provided build scripts and source. The extra credit was for fastest execution time. I assume you're payed based on final results, not based on source. Not so crazy of a concept - whoever delivered the best results got rewarded for i

I was in a parallel programming class where the fastest correct assignments got significant extra credit boosts. Compiling with the intel compiler with optimizations turned on (vs gcc) was often enough to make the difference in getting that

These are also examples of tampering with the radio, just more obvious (to me at least) than modifications to the actual functionality of the device.

Clear is probably a requirement so that the guards can see inside and be reasonably sure it hasn't been tampered with, for example, to communicate back to the outside world.

At Garmin, they pull in non-interviewers that have interview training (for legal reasons, don't want to ask the wrong questions like do they have kids, etc.) to eat lunch with candidates. There's no pressure on the candidate, and

When I eat at my desk, it is because eating at my desk means eating in a relaxed quiet environment without lots of people around. You're making a huge assumption that people eating at their desks are doing work while eating.
