Depends how high-res, but some encoders have several million steps per rotation (up to 25 bits for that brand): https://www.gurley.com/rotary-motion (I don't know the prices of those probably several thousands a piece?

Go with original replacement sliders from good mixer boards. They will usually be much much better and easier to select than any out of electronic vendor ones. They are really costly but the difference in behavior, feeling and reliability i

I found the RP2040 to be great for HID projects like that because of its two cores and PIOs. So you don't have delays because of display/LED updates, and you can delegate some work to the state machines. If the author is around:

Thanks for sharing this. There are two main reasons I know people behind the use acceleration for pots in midi controllers: - increase reactivity (small quick movement to cut frequencies faster for example) - low resolution of encoders (mos

Yes to get an accurate comparison we would need to have results from queries 10 years ago. I still remember myself having to really often go to page 3 and more of google searches to find things even really early on. I think it has never bee

Just my feedback after trying to finally get to what it is exactly. I tried to find marginalia on DDG, not on the first page. Google has it after some garbage. If I go to marginalia.nu I get a SSL error. search.marginalia.nu works If i sear

I am all for visas post education, to give a chance. But they should be separate from work visas so they can be tweaked separately.

Disagree as it has no warranty you are good enough to keep a job, only that you could pay fees every year.

Yes a 3-5 min UHPLC/MS (and even a UHPLC/UV which is cheaper) can tell you that. Cost of experiment? $10 (not including human cost) Cost of equipment $200k-$400k for this kind of things. One machine and one operator can analyze hu

Reviews are transferable? I was wondering because many reviews I have seen don't seem to be for the product I am looking at at all.

As you posted a link from your own blog/consulting, I will allow myself a design comment, this slowly appearing text makes reading extremely distracting on a phone. And the font is smaller than most websites.

Because the open drivers are good enough but have to deal with a proprietary blob that can't be fixed for bugs and has undefined features/behavior.

You can find waveshare panels that are bigger, 13.3" for around the price of that thing. They are not that hard to drive.

So only usable with their own app that may disappear with the company in a year? That sound like potential e-waste in a short amount of time.

I don't think we have any way to do that. Time is abstract for algorithms. Unless you make something you know you couldn't solve in less than x years. But that assumes you can predict improvements in algorithms and computing power
