Can anyone remind me what Tcl is good for anymore? I know a lot of EDA tools use it as the backend for builds but once the software writes the Tcl script for me, I've never had to make any changes to it more complex than variable names

The lack of cell phones seems obvious at first but then you realize that wizards don't need them. I liked how Harry Potter could have taken place at almost any point during the 20th century and beyond.

Power usually comes from fossil fuels on islands like this. Even a group of islands as large as Hawaii used 73% fossil fuels in 2017. Small, poor islands are going to almost entirely run off of fossil fuels since investment in energy infras

FRAM is pretty neat. I considered using an MSP430FR5969-SP for a component on a satellite but backed off when I learned more about the destructive read process. We were concerned about a transient bitflip during the write back and had no wh

I've got a brand new Kia. The FM radio comes on so fast, it's surprising. Every car I've ever had always has had some sort of warm up time or a splash screen on the infotainment system while it's booting up. This Kia has

There are a bunch of small companies building demonstrators right now. Even before SpaceX started Starlink, there were companies trying to do the same thing. SpaceX seems to be the most successful so far but there is still a lot of work to

It would be interesting to have this design on an FPGA that has a built-in DAC. I could see a very general purpose midi keyboard that has an interface that would allow switching between multiple different simulated synthesizers.

You personally don't have a say but the market does. If it artificially costs more to produce a good, the market would ideally find a way to produce the same good in a manner that doesn't involve heavy carbon taxes. For carbon tax

I'm sure many of the Trader Joe's store brand products are white label. It seems inefficient to have such a wide range of frozen products that are constantly changing. They simply find a frozen pasta dish manufacturer that abides

Trader Joe's definitely benefits from people walking the aisles. They put all kinds of interesting new products right next to staples so you are more inclined to buy it. If I could just browse the product offering online, I'd be a

I'm surprised they really break down the pricing on their custom tracking devices. Most companies would just have a "contact us" button and then dump out some arbitrary pricing after a few email exchanges.

Unless they had already talked to the city to make sure the bridge could be moved before building the yacht. Do you really think they just built the fucking thing and crossed their fingers that the city would allow the bridge move?

I would have been concerned about the government trying to go after me for pulling data from their website in an unintended fashion and using it to expose their incompetence. Like how the targeting of the journalist that broke the story abo

In one of our cars, the car will just connect to whoever last was connected although sometimes this means it connects to someone's phone that isn't even in the car. The other car has a preference selection that will try the prefer

I could see myself having some land out in the country. I'd still have a day job but maybe I'd have a small vegetable garden and use the rest of the land for things like hunting, hiking, or 4x4 offroading. I doubt I'd ever wa

An offer like that would seem incredibly suspicious to me. You want to pay all of this money to train me right out of school? Why not just hire someone with the right experience? Maybe it's my imposter syndrome speaking but it all feel

My grandfather had his house and car in a trust for years so when he died, everything immediately went right to my mom. There was some concern about ex-wives and dirtbag relatives trying to take things in probate so a trust helped keep ever

I took a geology class in college where we studied a lot of high res photos of both individual rocks and larger rock formations. They used some sort of moving bed and a microscope for the rocks so you could get really close up while also se

It's because they want to talk to the most power in the decision but with the least information as to how the problem could be solved without the help of Oracle/IBM/whoever.

Good to know that you can just say you're ineligible to get fined for breaking rules because you weren't going to follow them anyway. Like at least create a government incentive program for being prepared for winter weather other

There's a similar SDR toolkit out there called RedHawk. Its open source but heavily funded by the NSA so you can imagine that it has specific SIGINT applications in mind. However, you can still connect it to an RTL-SDR and play around

At least a remote is easy to swap out, either just replace from Amazon or eBay or just use a universal. Even my old HTC M8 had an IR blaster.

At one point in college, I was using an old Thinkpad x41 tablet and wanted to mess around with gnuradio. I wanted it on my tablet laptop since I had that on me most hours of the day. Compiling gnuradio took several hours. I was running arch
