It depends on what you care about. The Kino Lorber has good color choices, but far too much contrast: dark areas (including the characters) are pitch black; and you can't see the clouds in the skies.
They're meant to show off what is possible. The presets on my synth are split evenly between: * recreation of a classic patch used in a well known song * showing off some new-for-its-era feature * Wow, how did they do…
Front loaders clean better, with less wear and tear on your clothes, using less water.
I think the best answer lies somewhere in compartmentalization and fine-grained permissions. In this case: run it in some kind of secure container which has access to read browser history, and write to its database, but…

Google/Forrest rushed to embrace AI/Dan, and completely forgot about News/boat, which kept chugging along with no one at the controls until it degraded/crashed. It's a leaky metaphor.
TDD is done in a tight loop (minutes) while coding. For every little micro-feature/fix, you write a test for the new behavior you want, implement the minimal ugly fix to get the test to pass, then rely on the tests so…
You can do better: cut to 0%, let the needle fall, go back to 100% for a moment to catch the needle as it approaches the bottom of the scale. If you want to be fancy, add some quick sinusoidal ramps to smooth out the…
The interest is BECAUSE it's well explored territory. The concept is proven and works fine. On the low end where RISC-V currently lives, simplicity is a virtue. On the high end, RISC isn't inherently bad; it just…
As a kid I took a lot of classes at the Lawrence Hall of Science in Berkeley, which was paradise for fledgling nerds. On the last day they would have a little closing ceremony with some cute little science experiment.…
Yes. Details here: https://github.com/resumex/doom-over-dns/tree/main/TXTRecord...

Yes, it's due to internal resistance.
> The voltages of batteries, in the first place, is function of state of charge. It's also a function of the rate of discharge. Have a look at this: https://marsen.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Panasonic-N... All…
There's a technical reason for it: the voltage sags when the battery is discharged quickly. Ah is relatively constant, but Wh decreases significantly with faster discharge rates, so it can't specified as a single figure.
> Almost right - the trim has more authority than the elevators. Thank you, I'll update my brain and future explanations. :)
They are simple toggle switches without actuators. The switches are Honeywell P/N 4TL837-3D. Source[1]. Data sheet[2]. [1] https://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/NM-18-33.pdf [2]…
MCAS autonomously adjusts trim downward. The trim switches override MCAS, but when released, MCAS can resume trimming down again. The trim adjustments don't "override" the pilot's elevator inputs (MCAS has no direct…
That's a pretty big yak to shave! Building a 5 axis that gives good results a big task. How long did it take you to get that working? Why do you need to make so many molds?
The BIOS was an abstraction layer. In the old days, not everything was 100% IBM PC compatible. There were lots of weird graphics cards. Some systems had incompatible disk and keyboard controllers. There was no memory…
It's not the same. For a simple example, let's say you are simply driving in a circle. The car wants to lean toward the outside. The linear motors can provide a countering force, lifting the outside, lowering the…
It depends on the language you're using. For my Ruby example, each of those method calls will allocate an Array on the heap, where it will persist until all references are removed and the GC runs again. The extra…
The author keeps calling it "pipelining", but I think the right term is "method chaining". Compare with a simple pipeline in bash: grep needle < haystack.txt | sed 's/foo/bar/g' | xargs wc -l Each of those components…
