After using AT - compatible command set on a wifi iot module, AT commands in iridium don't surprise me, it's almost counting as legacy now. It started development in 1993 (30 years ago).

If it had audio amplifier, it could. I remember when I could hear some radio station from simple computer speakers. The catch - transmitter was on the other side of the street, but if I remember correctly, it was FM station - how could a si

But you still need some critical amount of knowledge that you need from somewhere. I wish I at least knew there exists something like assembler when I was 12. I naively tried to make some demos, but basic was not adequate, so I considered d

Yes, on every function call, also some internal functions implemented in native code are instrumented with those checks. On average thread is switched out after about 2000 "reductions" as they are called. Also there's an opti

Make a ordered_bag ets table and try to insert several thousand records in one ets call. It will block whole VM (spinning one core at 100%, doesn't matter how many you have) for several seconds. It does this because ordered bag needs t

In erlang you have preemptive green threads. They don't block* and having a million on one medium server is not unheard of. * I managed to block a whole erlang VM one day, spoke with Joe Armstrong on chat, but they won't fix this,

No, but I can hear it easily when car is idle, also see a change of power used by engine (fuel usage goes from 0.8L/h to 1.2L/h, not a small change). I purposefully wrote that I THINK that it doesn't work at speeds, because i

I don't think fan was engaged anyway, never noticed it working when moving, only when stationary. I don't think it would help anyway. What I mean - cars can do fine for long periods under load as long as they are cooled appropriat

I've tried with Opel from 2004. I had a very modern version (with everything over CAN, even gas pedal) and I had to disconnect A LOT of sensors in order for it to no longer start (don't ask why). Modern diesel cars are a little wo

The fan in cars is typically not enough to keep it cool while stationary under load, but in typical home applications you won't have that big load anyway. Big load for a car is >10kW. You can also pretty cheaply get a bigger externa

Cars during tests on dynamometer have to have a big fan blowing constantly on radiator. If you provide a big enough fan, you can run it as long as you want, even with big load. I was once doing 140km/h on autobahn uphill with fully loa
