On a related note, I had a very rare stroke last week, only symptom: headache for 3 days. The doctor sent me for a CT scan without any idea of what to look for. The only clue: it was not a migraine because I missed any neurological anomaly

Cool, a new hysterical trend. Are we done with kale and paddleboard yoga yet?

For electronics you go to the old school distributors to get legit tools and chips.

remember that cheap clones also foster innovation, by spreading tools that would be completely inaccessible to people without money, that's how computers revolutionized the world. With some cheap fake arduinos, cheap fake Saleae, and c

Is it me or it's a lot of xenophobia and a bit of labor dispute?

I wanted to use Ada for a personal project, it's not what it's cracked to be. Some registers are hard to map in the language. The timing side of things is extremely misleading: there are time primitives in the language, but you do

Haha, the MS C# docs are just infuriating. There are things I absolutely don't want to see translated, and language docs are one of those.

Does anyone know how they prevent customers from destroying the FPGA with malicious bitstream?

I did my computations by slicing the problem in little chunks so that the GPU has time to render the other tabs. https://github.com/nraynaud/webgcode/blob/gh-pages/webapp/cn...

It looks like it's not an overbooking at all, they just had employees showing up after the plane was full and united decided to kick some passenger out for them. But those employees were not paying nor were they planned to come on boar

dear Cowboys, start your ride in the morning, the towns are specifically spaced such that you can reach the next shelter in one day, avoiding the dangers of riding during the night.

maybe re-describing that stuff with the ASN.1 terminology would help make it more googlable ?

because they are copied and stored indefinitely without any promise of not spilling the content. And also that's the kind of thing that leads to an entire village in Yemen to be killed, women and children included, in the middle of the

some people got denied entry with that tactic, too suspicious. The US intelligence agencies are hell bent on creating a social graph of the world, and they will get to do it.

So they are siding with a politician from Luxembourg to try to get fairness in accounting practices? That's an incredibly creative plot twist...

The US housing market is crazy, they creep on their tenants, and make them pay for the creepiness. And then the "background checks" are bullshit anyways because the court records is a mess and nobody has any incentive to keep perf

SSN is a nightmare in the US, and was specifically not designed to fill this role. It's too short, has no random segment and no checksum.

Even Israel has a unique numbering system.

well, in a 300 million inhabitants country, maybe it's time to think about serious unique identifiers. Countries way smaller than that did it.

on youtube a lot of single people operation use the "We" pronoun a lot. I guess it' a mix of wanting to look bigger, wanting to include the audience, but now it's become a trend.

I mostly watch science, machining, DIY or electronics video. In the garbage section I only watch Casey Neistat and Ben Brown. That's the only kind of moving picture I watch unless I'm on a plane, I have no TV.

There is some kind of psychological cost too, since the money is only valued as much as people want to value it. Too much fakes might damage the brand more than the face value of the fake coins.

I think those 2 videos are on the topic: - AI "Stop Button" Problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TYT1QfdfsM (the AI won't let you push the stop button, because that would impair its function) - General AI

Can someone develop on the AC/DC aspect of the distribution? It makes no intuitive sense to me. Wind turbines generally have an asynchronous generator whose electric side is synchronized with the distribution network.
