This qualifier is actually more about lawyers and accountants. The US has a very unclear policy about labeling something as USA Made. It comes down to the US content in the BOM cost and it is specific to costs essential…
Not a home but if you were a bank and a 17 year old walked into the bank, talked to someone and was able to walk out with a fat stack of cash i think the insurance company would have to reconsider your policy.
The distinction you are looking for is parametric vs. geometric. Parametric models such as Solidworks or Creo use complex equations to derive the 3D geometry. Geometric models use a point cloud built from polygons to…
There is a system for TV Meta Data to be sent over the air and TVs with tuners used to be able to read this data and create an on screen guide. I had this on one of the first HDTVs I got but haven't seen it since…
I've been running Home Assistant for a while in Docker on my home NAS server. It runs great, is reliable, very scriptable, and so easy my wife can use it! I run it on my LAN without needing any additional online…
To be fair they don't pay for it every time... The chargers are now in LA, not SD
I grew up in Colorado and having them as a local resource for components was truly a gift. My dad was an EE and in his eyes Sparkfun was a great alternative to the Radioshack of his early days. When I was in college in…
Thanks for this list.. you have killed my productivity this afternoon.
Any links to good articles about this? I for one have not heard of this before.
Yes, because seat belts and airbags only encourage people to drive faster and more reckless
Where I live in Southern California the problem is that supply is kept down by people renting out their first home and buying a 2nd. The houses appreciate at 4% per year and the rent increases at nearly 8% so it's win…
I work in a product development environment. We have a worldwide network of suppliers. At the beginning of this year our employer stopped reimbursing our monthly cell phone bill. When asked if we still should respond to…

I'm a current robinhood non-gold user and they actually eliminated this restriction around 6 months ago. Now as soon as I sell a position I can buy my next with the funds from the sale.
If it's made in China and involves electronics it probably involves Shenzen

Phone manufacturers typically optimize around a 1 day use case. The battery takes up a significant amount of space and adding more than a day of charge at the expense of a thicker or larger phone typically doesn't play…
I've always disagreed with the statement that elegant engineering is art. The purpose of art is to convey a statement or emotion while engineering is to deliver the best possible solution within a pile of constraints.…
Hi Derek, I'm interested in learning a bit more about some of the mechanical engineering positions. If you see this send me an email. My address is in my profile. Thanks, -Ben
In the united states there are very specific rules about the height and spacing of almost all plumbing fixtures in public places due to ADA and other local plumbing codes. Lots of the examples in the article are clear…
Instead of a bomb how about a warning that these vans exist? You could have a bunch of nerds leaving arduinos in Ubers around NYC. Have the arduinos measuring radiation and phoning home with any locations that are above…
I've always wondered if sites do this the other way around. A site invests a lot in content they create you would think to get the most out of it they would serve it with different headlines to different demographics.…
