If you assume faulty charger, you have to figure out a way of dropping at least 5 extra watts of heat somewhere in your phone. That seems practically impossible without significantly compromising on mechanical properties of your device.

Not really Computer Science per se, but practically every engineering field uses numerical solvers. No one reallistically solves nontrivial differential equations by hand these days.

EU is slowly cutting away sovereignity of its member states with regulations such as these. This is a very touchy subject for some of the european nations and "Hollywood production is dumb" is just an extremely stupid thing to bic

Anti-EU types usually base their rhetorics on globally enforced regulations coming from "Brussel bureaucrats". Sure, I would not be surprised if this concrete instance of such a regulation was welcomed in these circles (consistenc

This is the side of the EU that foreigners usually don't see. This is the reason there are movements for quitting in every member state (with varying levels of success). The isolationism EU is beginning to display is starting to worry

Because there might be multiple different development approaches to solve the same problem. It makes sense to explore more than one of them. Some cars don't use LIDAR (Tesla), some use end-to-end machine learning (geohot thing), some a

This looks like it's supported by a 3D printed enclosure. Otherwise I agree - you need >2.0mm thick PCB to prevent falling out and these are not offered by the usual cheap low-volume PCB manufacturers.

The reason your GPS receiver does not work on a plane is likely because it's processing algorithms aren't tuned for those speeds. The popular Ublox NEO-6M for example needs to be explicitly switched to "airborne" mode. T
