As someone who's not an EE (with no degree in anything at all) and has made many circuit boards... No, they're not that complicated. Not really. I've even designed an analog hall effect keyboard PCB with integrated IR senso

...which is ridiculous because of what it takes to become an EE VS what it takes to become a "web developer". Basically anyone who can handle basic logic can be a web developer if they just put in a bit of effort. Degree or no

Meh. Bootup time is irrelevant if the thing is always on. Many "dumb" microwaves won't let you use them until you set the clock after a power loss which creates an artificial "boot up time" of 5-120 seconds (depen

I own an excellent 3D printer (Prusa MK2.5 w/MMU2) but I really want a bigger one (Prusa XL--it's not out yet). I don't own a laser cutter but I really want one so can experiment with lasering 3D prints. I don't own a CN

Why not just have one payment system to rule them all run by the government that is required by law for all payment of employee-driven services? Businesses could save a TON of money on payroll systems and HR. A government-run system--pre

That's also just testing memory. I had a teacher do that to me in high school where they graded papers during winter break and when they asked me about it in January I could barely remember that I wrote the document let alone the sp

This is mixing apples & oranges: The new fabs aren't the latest & greatest tech (e.g. 2-5nm) but they're still going to be producing 25-40nm chips using 300mm wafers which is smaller than most automotive-using chips w

FYI: The (Federal) statute of limitations on fraudulent bank transfers is 5 years. That's from a "they can prosecute you" standpoint. Various states have their own laws but in Florida (where I live) the undo button on the &

Looking a little further, we will be generated on demand when AI deems it necessary; based on what the machines know about us. With the specific keywords/features it deemed best.

On Windows git performance isn't the greatest due to the sheer number of tiny little files (NTFS is absolutely awful). If you have a lot of small commits the number of tiny files grows and grows and grows and git can feel really slow

A more apt comparison would be you enjoying a drink in your own home (your server) and then because kids starting playing outside you'd be banned from your home for drinking there. Forever.

Additionally the judge should bar Facebook from displaying political ads. That would be far more punishment (and better for society I think) than a mere few hundred million fine.

The default switch width/length is 18mm to fit inside standard Cherry MX key switch cutouts (in a top plate) but you can shrink that down to probably 14mm (just change the parameters in the .scad). Alternatively, you could just cut a

> did they cheapen out on PD? For this question I think I know the answer: USB PD chips are hard to obtain right now. So they probably left it out just due to a lack of general (reliable) availability.
