I really like eBPF, and I even know what the acronym stands for, but I'm still completely incapable of reading it as anything other than "e band pass filter"

I think it's mostly a nod to the fact that R's data.table blows everybody else out of the water by such a ridiculously wide margin. It's like a factor of 2 faster than the next fastest... So if you're writing a datafra

It's much easier to buy industrial [1] and high endurance [2] microSD cards now. SanDisk/WD started selling them to the public due to the popularity of dashcams that record continuously. No more buying cards on digikey from a ma

I had been meaning to find or write a tool like this for ages -- often times the only place where you can find pinout information for a chip is from a table buried on page 7xx of a massive pdf datasheet. Trying to create a symbol for, e.g.

No mention of the previous Google Pay fuck-up, which graced us with two apps: "Google Pay" and "Google Pay Send." I still haven't figured that one out, and I'm not going to bother with whatever the hell this

SVC profiles target bandwidth degradation, but yeah nothing really recovers from random dropouts anywhere in the steam like analog... Lots of I-frames, I guess...

Even if they do manage to make it unique, who actually cares? You have a token and a jpeg. I have the exact same jpeg. It's not an original in a gallery vs. a mass market print, the copies are identical. Why should anyone care about wh

This seems to be a US based company, and none of the US based fab houses compete on price. Many don't even want your business if you're in the "Idea to PCB in One Week" prototyping phase. The vast majority still want you

Really nice work, by the way... I hope my comment didn't seem overly harsh. I know that doing testing with gauge blocks is part of the process and I really only took issue with the hackster.io headline.

That does not look like a 10 micron scan... Edit: Here is the source for the claim: https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenScan/comments/gfottc/10_micron_... It seems this might be the theoretical error that you c

So that you can turn my answer into another ad hominem attack? No, I don't think I will.

That is not the question I explicitly quoted when I answered "no." I deliberately did not answer this second question.

That is not what you asked, and for the third time , that is not what I said. You asked: "Does the person doing the work need to be paid?" Which I interpreted to mean: "Is this project doomed to fail if the developers are no

You're putting words into my mouth. I stated that I believe the community would be better off if this existed. I have not asked anyone to go and do this. You asked if I thought it was possible to do this without funding. I do. That s

Good! I hope that maintenance of a de-googlified Chromium continues, and I hope they strip out even more of the undocumented telemetry and forgotten whitelisting of miscellaneous Google-controlled endpoints. The result will be a better web

Maybe stopping to live with the browsers that we have for a while wouldn't be the end of the world? You're right that free software development isn't free, but these browsers already exist, and are already free, and for t

I agree that torx is useful. It's also an international standard. Pentalobe is not an improvement over torx - torx was arguably working fine for Apple, but they decided to invent and start using a proprietary, non-standard screw anyway

I am 100% confident that whatever LinkedIn manages to come up with here will also be trash.

by ohazi 6y ago
The parent's argument stands, even if the details are slightly off. Apple switched from torx to pentalobe screws because torx wasn't proprietary enough. Also, they keyboard wasn't held down with 60+ screws, it was held down w

I only took a quick look, and this source doesn't seem fantastic, so perhaps it's wrong, but anyway... here's my source [1]: > Engine failures are defined as contained or uncontained. When engine debris leaves the engine,

They're demanding inspections to collect more data, and will revise the inspection interval if deemed necessary. Turbines are designed so that fan/blade separation failures are contained within the engine casing. Uncontained failu
