We'll never have the same experience as Alias when we no longer have to revolve our schedules around the broadcast time!

Oh wow, I forgot about this. Syzygy was supposed to be like PMOD but higher speed capabilities. I actually put it into a design, but never got around to fabricating it. https://forums.sifive.com/t/friscy-new-high-perfor

I feel like this goes for personal life too. My particular problem du jour: some parts internal to my lawn mower engine crankcase self destructed and the engine needs a total rebuild or replacement. I replaced the camshaft 2 years ago with

I understand exactly what you mean. I think I had to read/learn how to interpret Maxwell's Equations many times before it started to click (and even then, a refresher every so often is useful). Feels to me that the electromagnetis

Pretty sure I had Prof. Orfanidis for a DSP lab back in the day. I don't remember much from that lab aside from playing with some old DSP dev boards and creating positive audio feedback ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is discussed in the book Chip War at length. I believe the answer was that if it were possible at all, it's going to be at least half a decade behind. There were a lot of other supply chain considerations which would likely apply

Thank you so much for this! I'm constantly needing to Google for torque specs when I work on my van, and as great as the Odyssey forum is it's really nice to have this. I really appreciate it, personally. I do all my own work, and

This is a new "intrusion" and in fact it even happened on my work computer (Win 11 Pro). I was shocked to see it the other day, but honestly I shouldn't be. We see Microsoft pushing out their AI copilot thing, putting a pride

For real... My dad's still got his '97 Ranger (that I learned to drive on) and I told him that if he ever decides to sell it, I'll fly out and drive it back instead.

As much as I love trucks, it seems that their price is extremely inflated (likely due to their utility as a work vehicle). Depending on your use case, I can highly recommend a minivan. I have an '07 Odyssey that we need for the big fam

The size of Pileated makes it so special to see! We're fortunate to see one a few times a year - my wife saw one this week but I didn't make it upstairs in time to get a glimpse.

If I understand correctly, you're concerned about using older peripherals with a newer motherboard/CPU? If so, the PCIe spec requires backwards compatibility so it should still work.

I'm seeing a fun resurgence of popularity with regards to deeply technical semiconductor articles here on HN lately! Seems almost daily there's a new semi engineering article or similar. Slightly related to this article, if anyone

Oh man I feel this... My big thing is observing and pointing out how few men's restrooms have diaper changing tables. Some places are awesome with it, or with private family restrooms for this purpose. For the other places... Let'

I saw a video this morning with the new features and I'm blown away at the rate of improvement. I started using KiCad with v4, and it worked but was clunky. Now, it's such an incredible tool. I tell anyone looking for PCB software

I think this is an excellent point. That being said, there are some warm fuzzies that come by seeing my grad school research topic listed here as well (the ML for physics simulations topic). Just some validation that the area I'm spend

Upvote for Astranis! Hi Christian! (I'm just a random EE who used to work there, hanging on the couch browsing HN after a long day and randomly seeing a link from someone I used to work with). Also, this is funny, doesn't everyone

The coolest thing about this article is that it's some work done by Nubis, I've been really excited to see where they go ever since Peter Pupalaikis left Teledyne LeCroy to work there/found the company. Word is he had a great

Pretty dang close, propagation delay is often given as a percentage of the speed of light (c). Here's a fun table with a comparison a few pages into this PDF: https://www.commscope.com/globalassets/digizuite/2

That's interesting, never would have considered the particulates from brakes but I guess it's like tire dust in that way. I'm not buying the "slightly easier to maintain" though... Sure we've all seen the seize

I agree that investment in the city of New Brunswick seems like a great idea for the reasons you stated. At the same time, it just feels so grand and historic to walk the same halls as the likes of Shannon, and it's a bit sad that I ma

Certainly JLC and their EasyEDA integration is a great tool for reducing barriers - absolutely. There are others as well, Eagle for one (maybe even before KiCad got as popular as it is) plus some of the newer tools looks Libre PCB and Horiz
