Rules are defined in Python scripts which can have arbitrary complexity. However, it seems like most rules are just string or regex matching: https://github.com/amperser/proselint/blob/master/proselint&#x

I'd certainly contribute a few rules for German prose. Actually, I'm even more interested in using proselint with custom rules for theater plays (e.g., check for unneccessary repetitions, word combinations that are (acoustically)

Are there any plans to support rules for texts written in other languages (e.g., German)? Would a set of such rules fit within the scope of this project or is proselint purposely or inherently limited to English prose? (@suchow)

WiFi: 2.4 GHz GSM: 0.9 - 1.9 GHz (UMTS, LTE go up to ~3 GHz) Microwave ovens: 0.9 - 2.4 GHz [1] Seems like more or less the same wavelength to me. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven#Principles

Given that Gage Skidmore owns all rights to the photos, and that Priceonomics apparently had contacted him for this article, it seems quite plausible that Gage allowed the photos to be used outside the CC license. Furthermore, one might arg

The problem is that FTDI ist taking it out on the customer, and hoping that "the FTDI driver bricked my board" somehow gets those customers to (1) realize that the problem is a counterfeit chip, (2) work their way up the supply ch

Thanks, that is very helpful.

From a first glance, it is not yet clear to me how far this project actually is and what its goal is. Could you give a short introduction (or point to an introductory blog post)?

Indeed. However, this explanation is only given after the example has already made use of these registers. As I stated, just a very minor issue... :)

What a beautiful intro to assembly programming and reverse engineering. Very minor issues that bother me more than they should: - Could it be that there is a whitespace missing after the " ◐ " or is the gap in the border intention

FWIW, as a researcher at a university, it is only my decision whether I apply for a patent or not. In contrast, patenting inventions is an inherent part of the research workflow at research labs such as MSR, Yahoo Research, etc.

MSR publish a lot but try to get patents on potentially valuable research first.

If I understand correctly, PJON is not directly a replacement for the 1-wire bus as it does not specify pull-up/-down hardware that would be necessary for using VCC as the physical communication medium, right? (Which means that I would

Hmm, given they already had 'billions of rows' [1] (though probably distributed across many tables), they might have been wise enough to plan for this. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9756534
