There are modern systems that still use this sort of modular backplane design. MicroTCA and PXIe are the two major ones, both providing at least power and a PCIe bus on the backplane. MicroTCA supports carrying Ethernet, SATA, and PCIe on t

You get added again out of a spread spectrum signal and it helps with interference too but the main issue is that with the power spread out, it's much harder to detect at long distances. It becomes even harder to detect when you don&#x

It's overkill for normal office use but the space shuttle is going to have some massive vibration and mechanical shock during launch. All systems have to be ruggedized to withstand the environment. A commercial unit might not survive t

The wine is a bit much for a mid day meal at work, operating heavy machinery on alcohol isn't the best idea but the cheese and bread are a lovely mid day meal. Cheese is very digestible and high in protein so it's going to sit les

Because in the data, Germany did not exist before 1990 and there is a significant population that were born in East or West. It doesn't seem like the tool actually uses the differences but there is likely a difference between life span

The voluntary phase is more of an impending notice that you, as a food manufacturer, better figure something out now before everyone buys up the existing supply capacity of non-PFAS packaging during the mandatory phase.

Kicad allows you to keep a library of projects containing layouts and schematics of small circuits that you may wish to reuse in other circuits by just simply importing them to the current design. You can then modify as needed.

This applies to many different visas. The point is to ensure you are actually employed and not just here to subsist off of social services or working for illegal enterprises (i.e. organized crime). You can change jobs but the new employer m

Trigger locks and pistol lockboxes are really just to prevent someone from playing with your guns. A trigger lock obviously isn't going to prevent theft and pistol lockboxes can just be carried away. Although I have seen videos of a to

It's not the frequency of the antenna that changes, it's the directivity of the emitted power. The resonant frequency is determined by the length of the metallic strips of the helix which determines how thick and tall the helix is

I think the fact that their #1 pick was an affiliate product shows what could really be behind the curtain. Is Wirecutter being paid to bump up their reviews for products or at least being paid to trash other products in comparison? It'

Depending on where you are, you can literally fly around in a GA plane with no radio and be perfectly legal. You can build your own airstrip (no approvals necessary other than any municipal building permits) and fly around with no radio in

I can somewhat understand why these torque wrenches are smart. The screenshot of the software interface showed a flow diagram of the tightening process and it looks like you very precisely describe how the fastener is to be tightened. A nor

The code to do the disc swap was intentionally obfuscated. If it was really meant for a tech demo, why keep it in the retail build? If it was accidentally left in, why hide it? I feel like the most obvious answer is that a developer wanted

When they say machine learning, do they really just mean error correcting codes and convolutional encoding? Is this just a case of using buzzwords or is the ML just doing RS/Viterbi?

A reduction in foreign energy dependency is always nice to have. They can also use the geothermal to generate electricity. The carbon savings aren't that much but nearly free energy sources are nice to have.

Pretty amazing price point considering a Polarfire board is normally like $1000 although those have a lot more features (socketed RAM, PCIe edge connector, SERDES breakout, etc). IGLOO is a little more affordable but Polarfire is nicer. Mic
