Intentional or not, I enjoy how humorously provocative this comment is. It's not possible to understand why someone would prefer Matlab through a software engineer's lense. Our jobs are different and a real programming language is

That's not the argument I thought I was making. The lower the application criticality and the bigger the project impact, the more leeway you can give if there are legitimate project-killing limitations. It's safe to say that the p

I probably shouldn't have said "new" without explaining myself more. For safety- and mission-critical applications (SC and MC), Verilog is more established in the US, and VHDL is more established in Europe. For SC, a tool doe

They wouldn't use a chip like this for anything safety-critical, which is the main reason for using well-established tools and techniques. Fielding new technology in a less critical role is an opportunity to establish new tools as well

I think the main idea behind Julia is to minimize the burden of doing the necessary but wasteful software engineering parts of scientific computation. Let the language optimize more so you don't have to write a C++ library or figure ou

"de-" carries the additional sense of "down", so thrown down from a high window rather than thrown out through a low window.

Really it's business people, and they haven't forgotten so much as they've recognized that software is more profitable.

Indeed. You can't publish a tool designed to defeat copyright protection any more than you can publish the copyrighted material itself. Hence the dmca takedown request.

Being technically knowledgeable doesn't compel you to publish things that undermine their business.

I just realized you said 6. I was connecting to the theme of the article, which is reusables after 6.

Copyright policy needs improvement, but I don't think I support any changes that would help much here.

It's more about the humans than the hardware. Schedules slip for many reasons. Landing and reusing a rocket is new to them. There's nothing like reality to force people to be realistic and get experience.

It also depends on the nature of the software. Administrative software can usually be exported without issue because it doesn't threaten the administrative service. But certain technology is a strategic investment to create a domestic

They need both. Watchdog can't help if the GPIO hardware is stuck high or if the MCU is browned out and doing undefined behavior. The npn can't help if the code is stuck.

I guess you didn't read my other reply. You can balance the rights and interests of both parents and kids by narrowing the proposal. There's plenty of precedent. I'm allowed to give my kids alcohol, but you're not. Somet

They can design the law to ban companies from giving an account directly to a kid, but allow parents to give their kids an account. There's room to negotiate down from this proposal.

For the same reason it's illegal to sell tobacco to minors. Your kids have a right to exist in society without a constant chaperone, and other adults don't have a right to interact with your kids as if they're adults.

Maybe future historians will appreciate your explanation of something that everyone today knows. Nobody is stopping you from talking about what you value and how to incorporate those values into policy design. Other people are participating

by nunuvit 3y ago
You'll get more out of the article if you read it as more of a philosophical exploration than a literal policy proposal. You can share similar values without reaching the same conclusion.

Proper galvanic isolation is most of what protects you from mains. The YouTube channel Diode Gone Wild does a lot of charger teardowns explaining what makes them safe or dangerous. Unfortunately, we often rely on trusting secretive vendors

Most nib complaints can probably be resolved with proper adjustment and maintenance. If people were doing that, I'd expect the complaints to be more focused on how the nibs defy their efforts, as opposed to how the nibs write poorly.

by nunuvit 3y ago
The Lamy grips are pretty controversial too. It looks like there are a few other pens that use the same nib and feed as the Metro. Do any of them lack that ridge?

Yup, that's a copy of part of it.
