It's hard for me to believe that all the smart, capable company executives involved in planning and execution of operations in and around China are oblivious to IP risks. There is an obvious upside of operating in Asia, both cheap labo

Um... Why the down vote? "Terrell used a sensitive air-quality meter to demonstrate that one high-end HEPA system brought the particulate count in a dusty room down to virtually zero. His homemade system brought the count down to about

Am I reading this right, 10% air quality improvement for the diy version vs 100% for a retail device?

Ok, maybe this is a silly question, but I am a millennial.... Question: what is a mainframe and why would I want one? In my mind I think of it as a big, but inelastic, compute resource. If that's true, why wouldn't I want to use s

Also, for folks interested in general "drone" (aka research/commercialized/militarized robotics) news, the http://dronecenter.bard.edu/ newsletter provides fantastic weekly coverage.

If you want a mavic, just buy a mavic, building something with this level quality / reliability is not worth the effort. The advantage to building your own is that you get a different type of quad -- a racing quad which feels more like

iTerm2 for me. With command + tab and command + ` I can code without a mouse. Terminator is ok, and windows, well... Nothing is as usable as iTerm2, at least for me. Plus, it just works, no need to remove old kernels or Windows update bloat

Sweet, a guide! I always end up rolling my own thread pool / manager. I wish something like the parallel gem for Ruby existed in pyland...

As much as I dislike the inability to repair or upgrade the new mbp 15", I have to agree. Mine works great.

The irony is that while the Bay area is screaming for globalization and free trade, against rising nationalistic trends, city-level protectionism is the norm now and only expanding.

Haha, ok. Thank you again for all your hard work! Iterm2 is 90% the reason I pay a premium for a Mac. I would gladly skip paying the apple tax and put the funds toward iterm2 on other platforms if it ever becomes available :)

Yes, thank you! Perhaps this has been asked before, but is there any hope of an Ubuntu port?

yes, i don't disagree. this is all beside the point though -- the tariffs will have the opposite of the desired effect though: pushing more assembly to China and making it harder for innovators in the US.

This is insane. The ppl it is going to hurt the most are the tinkerers and innovators. As long as you assemble your completed phone / tv in China it doesn't matter. But for hackers trying to build cool stuff or develop ideas into

You probably want the reference manual for the co-processor.

I'm in exactly the same situation. I just wish it had coffee lake, 32gb of ddr4 and a modern gpu - e.g. an upgrade. Who cares if it's marginally thinner and lighter? With Ubuntu 18.04, Linux is more usable than ever... already run

Lawyers and law makers need to remember technology will continually outpace them. Both in execution of ideas and in value creation.

How do ppl like freertos vs zephyr vs nuttx? Have any real comparisons been done? Both on flexibility (platform support and code portability... I know... Nuttx, POSIX) and performance (interrupts, context switching, etc) I've been look

Good question. a) Inside / light outdoor get a tinywhoop or Chinese clone and throw a <5g all in one camera + VTX on it. The E010 is an example. You'll pry want to upgrade the motors. b) fast/racing, I'd build an X fr

Totally agree. I carry my Mavic everywhere I go. I'm the author of this page and it is slightly dated. Happy to answer any questions or help folks get started with their own quads. My most recent posts on the topic are here: nathan.ver
