Amazing to me that this billion dollar plus mission (InSight) is now offline because of dust on solar panels. We’ve had solar panels more than four decades now. I don’t assume the challenge is easy, and know that dust is endemic to Mars, bu

Yeah, sounds about right. Real world problems are rarely 1D, constant (or no) velocity, etc. there are good examples out there, the one by rlabbe on GitHub is pretty dang good. It still didn’t quite get me as far as I needed to go, but it

That’s a cool story. I feel like this is so overlooked. I’ve worked with scientists and engineers who’ve actually deployed systems that are incredibly complicated and pretty well known. Those folks are usually skeptical of trendy algorithm

I love ELI5 articles. I work in fields that use Kalman Filters. I have an MS in EE. I’ve been in industry for more than ten years and tried my hand with more than one KF. I know the terms and mostly grok the math. I’m a Senior trending to P

Nicely done Brendan! Thank you, knowing Brendan’s work with eBPF, I take this as a way to more easily monitor and assess performance under different types of performance. Tweaking/tuning comes with trade offs, and I usually end up opti

People forget that getting answers is not what makes a good solution. Computers are still dumb, they only give answers. Asking the right question is everything. With the right question the uncertainty of a problem is resolved. Finishing is

It’s product placement. Happens in retail and grocery all the time. Sellers pay to have their products at eye level, stores optimize placement to boost spending. Now that it’s digital it’s illegal?

For my use cases the asyncio wrapper makes it really easy to stack up a bunch of tasks, let the OS it’s thing, and then collect the results when they’re ready.

The mess more reflects supporting a programmatic interface to processes in a cross platform manner, coupled with the actual complexity of parallel processing. You didn’t mention the recommended high level option for subprocess, ‘subproces

People are busy and often times will be aware of the broad strokes of the topic at hand, but not necessarily the latest details. A well written narrative will bring everyone back to the salient choices.

I have a stellar contract SDE from Morocco. Aside from the humanitarian tragedy of this earthquake, my eyes have been opened to the challenges young professionals with Visas face in the US. They tend to be ripe for exploitation by hiring fi

One aspect of Amazon culture I’ve enjoyed is that meetings are document driven, and PPTs are rare, even non existent. Meetings start with dedicated reading time. It feels like PPT engendered this false sense of communication by making it ea

I’ve used make like this in the past, it’s handy. But zsh auto suggestion obviates the extra maintenance IMO. I type the command one time and it’s in my history. So my common dev actions are more flexibly maintained by recency than editing

It’s interesting how the most common impulse when confronted with how good chatGpt is - find ways in which it fails, or does something silly.

Civil liberties must be fought for, and governmental transparency and oversight is necessary, but Snowden is a piece of shit for what he did.

Do you mind sharing what make (vendor) of radar being used? The “AI” in these types of systems is usually more likely classical ML than deep learning, in my experience. The problem is solvable, but it needs more training data and investment

People are diverse and I feel that tech, in the whole, is coming around to that reality in practice and not only in PR. I work in big tech on “cool projects”. Our particular area values experience and intelligently failing fast, which also

It’s indispensable in some workflows. Scoring history can help with otherwise difficult debugging, or looking up a variant to a complicated invocation that’s not the one suggested by auto complete.

Haha. Deeply embedded is expected for RF, not big deal. But there’s no excuse to not have switched to py3 years and years ago.

Children are complaining, but this is exactly right. Yes, I can work around the device connecting me to the internet. What I’d really prefer though is to exchange whatever cost went into the shit add ons, the Bluetooth, the speakers, the wi

Doppler is measured across multiple chirps or pulses. So doppler is not really encoded in the same signal used for range. Relative motion induces a phase rotation across multiple chirps, which can be coherently combined with a Fourier trans

Ainstein demonstrated this with tiger woods. The raw output is very dense and contains range and Doppler information.

Your comment seems skeptical. Practically, It’s a night and day difference if you’ve integrated a linter with your editor. Plus, ruff is able to fix as well as lint.
