It is also a good signal to use for frequency calibrations as the carrier is derived from a Caesium reference.
It is the annual creative writing exercise known as appraisal time at many organsiations, including mine. Why not get some inspiration from HN? Actually this year has never been easier for appraisals, all successes have…
There is also the excellent "The Jet Engine" book by Rolls-Royce: https://hermessuspendeme.com/DOCS/GrevaEdgar/greva%202B/2B/S...

Maybe there has been some sort of accident of scale, like the intergalactic fleet in Hitch Hiker Guide to the Galaxy that arrives to destroy Earth but is eaten by a dog. There could be a banging ET party going at the…
He mentions a site near Slough, west of London but doesn't give an exact location. The photo looks like magnetic loop antennas. Slough has a large number of data centres, would that be the location of the servers for…
I'm curious as to UK end of the link now. I would guess somewhere on the hills around London to get line of sight for a microwave link down to the city. Having just checked the Ofcom Spectrum Information System [0], it…
I found it sometime last year, looking for data on a Philips video IF processing chip, I thought about posting it. Great site from an interesting guy, a rather sad history of the decline of electronics manufacturing in…
I agree that it ought to be that way, however those with power tend to want to hang on to it. How do you solve it? The US has a term limit for the President, but you can stay in Congress/Senate/Parliament for life if…
No, not a specific political difference, more of a differnce of socio-economic/age/class/possibly even race. As we saw at the last election Corbyn wasn't that popular with some traditional Labour voters. Perhaps we will…
I had noticed that the UK distributors that I use on a regular basis, RS and Farnell, have stopped hosting TI's datasheets on their sites. It makes it quite annoying to make a quick check to see if the part does what I…
What do Ofcom do to enforce it? They used to have a number of spectrum monitoring stations, however they were decommissioned, I know someone that bought bits of it at auction.
You could island hop across the Atlantic. Bermuda -> Azores -> Canaries. Work your way up the Irish sea from the Scilly Isles -> Lundy -> Skomer -> Bardsey -> Angelsey. On up to Faroes (Bonus points for a stop off on…
That is how it appeared to me. Like Vultures fighting over bare bones. It would have been better if they had a agreed a 10 year moratorium on fishing in EU and UK water to let fish stocks recover.
I had a feeling yosys might do it somehow. Thanks.
It was suspected that the IRA Docklands bombing[0] was possibly targeting the telecomms infrastructure. I think there were also some attempts at bombing the National Grid which failed. You are correct that a lot of CNI…
I use for it for the various RF/EE/Controls related matrix stuff, as others have said it is often quicker to use to do some sanity checks even though at work we have actual MATLAB/CST Studio etc.
I think the usual way of handling stuff like that in the embedded world is with an RTOS. Something like FreeRTOS or RTEMS (both have ARM Cortex ports). Also, depending on complexity of the system (more actuators) you…
Matthew Boulton was also pioneering mass production prior to making steam engines with Watt. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soho_Manufactory
Thanks. I'll have to check that out.
I don't think we have fully grasped what information really is yet, almost like fish that have just become aware of the ocean. After finishing James Gleick's excellent The Information (mentioned recently on HN), I came…
So you are saying that life is effectively a Dirac Delta Function. I guess I always knew that infinity was buried in there somewhere.
I learned to drive in a Mini Mark IV. After passing my test I had all sorts of near misses with it. One particularly hairy one was coming round a bend to find traffic queuing at a junction, I locked the wheels and hit…
>On top of that, climate change is a slow moving disaster, and we are typically good at mitigating long term changes (at least way better than urgent crises). That statement is laughably incorrect, in fact the complete…
Where is the evidence that a 15 day fast is dangerous?
