It's the other way around due to poor framing, it would be much easier to compare if you [the repo] said 0.02 tps.

I’ve reset 2FA with a known password and it was pretty onerous. Had to provide a lot of info: username, full name on account, other domains, phone number, order number, email, invoice IDs and payment proof. Asking for my legal ID would have

Awards are also a product of their time, representing biases among the judges, literary preferences from the readership, and straight up nepotism/favoritisim/elitism. Look at the Hugo/Nebula/Locus and you'll find a

Seems about the only kitchen things you can trust now are cast iron, carbon steel and sheet pans, because you can’t really do much to cheapen them in terms of materials except take them offshore (and most of the brands like Lodge are proudl

There isn’t much need in the UK. Farmers use tractors or vehicles like the classic 4x4 Land Rover, Subarus, etc. None of the roads or the infrastructure are designed for American size pickups, especially not the countryside. If people need

Nevertheless this PoW is used by some conference venues now, in the case of a dispute against human authorship. NeurIPS does allow LLM use for "minor" polish like spelling, grammar, correcting non-native speakers. But you can&#x27

Arguably these are different use cases. Cheap fast-charge cables are usually limited to full speed only (linked ones included). For that reason they don’t meet my criteria, as you can’t interchange the charging cable for a data transfer cab

Cost, really? A 2m USB4 cable from Belkin is $20 (eg INZ004bt2MBK). You don't save much going to 4 ft, sadly. I find their cables to be pretty good (the TB5/USB4). They're certainly cheaper than Apple's. They have a soft

I had a discussion with folks at work about what information is worth retaining in the face of AI doing everything for us. A lot of what we have in our heads to qualify as "domain experts" is pretty esoteric. How to invoke command

The UK has de minimis for a while yet, and PCBs are 0% import duty. The only thing you might get shafted by is Royal Mail's handling fee if it gets checked by customs. We're talking about hobbyist PCBs here, not production runs.

If you write Qt applications, Qt Creator is perfectly usable and as it's cross-platform you only need to be familiar with one IDE. It ships with its own deploy command which packages the app. You still need to run code signing/not

In the past if you didn't live in the US, OSHPark was a great option. Local fabs were very expensive, had big setup fees and even the "maker" places charged more and you'd only get HASL. Meanwhile OSH gave you 3 with ENI

This is a fascinating thought problem. On the extreme end you have recipe blogspam, with the tropey life stories and Amazon affiliate spam that precede the meat (pardon the pun). If that pre-filler is inconsequential, why not have an LLM pa

I like doing this if I can’t sleep, although there have been occasions where I ended up staying awake to finish the whole thing. I don’t read in bed unless I’m on my own, or we’re both reading, as I’ve not found any satisfying book lights a

I haven’t tried, but it looks like you could trivially solve with optical flow? Edit: looks like yes, from the shared chats people are posting. But it’s interesting to think of communication schemes that require a temporal component so any

The actual prose is ham fisted, but the structural bits - “why it matters” headings and bulleted content are traditional clickbait. Compare to “the results may surprise you” and similar stock phrases that we roll our eyes at. This stuff has

I’ve found Codex’s overage to be much better value than Claude’s. A monthly $10 budget is plenty for my backup Codex usage, but on Claude Code that would be gone in a couple of days.

A lot of human PCB errors could be caught by analyzing the netlist against requirements and knowledge of the datasheet. Schematic and board formats are usually plaintext, so you can generate those directly even. Or kicad + python? That’s pr

Going to need more than that. Why? Do you want to work in biostats or biotech, or do you enjoy it enough that the money and time commitment is worth it purely out of interest? What skills are you missing that you think a masters would give

If you’re cooling with whole house AC, you’re probably fine if there’s a register in your bedroom and the air is free to return.

Right, but that also means sourcing a grouphead, a suitable boiler and all the other bits. Plus worrying about thermal cutout, running the boiler dry, OPVs, all sorts of safety things. Having someone else handle that is nice. Those projects

The biggest benefit for me has been getting side projects done. Little bugs or todos that would take more time than I have to spare, but don’t detract from the project. I’ve had Claude do stuff like interrogate IoT devices, look into propri

Gagguino is a great example of this approach, licensing scandal aside†. Espresso machines are expensive and not because the software is particularly clever. They are electrically simple, but mechanically there's a lot of pressurized pl

Being circular allows for zero clearance turns. If you imagine a square robot traversing a wall and approaching a 90 degree inside corner, it can’t make the turn and would also be unable to make a perpendicular move to get more space. That

We do this with movie night now. It can be 15 bucks to rent an HD movie - not even a new release! Frequently it’s cheaper to buy a copy and give it to a thrift store afterwards. I’m considering trying one of the mail order rental companie

The issue I have is the documentation and “status” is slop. Looking at the repo, how much of it is even real? There’s supposed to be a build-along on YouTube but nothing there yet. The BoM is a bunch of aliexpress modules which is ok, but w

Try to avoid milling unless you absolutely need it. Better to go 2D with some tolerance and print small adapters, or use standard T-slot hardware, to connect it. It's often educational to browser McMaster just to get a feel for what st
