“Come with me to Canada. Toronto is just like New York, but without all the stuff”- Steve Martin on 30 Rock
Debt creates debt crises. Throughout history it’s been a major function of any government to resolve these. Notably this function predates any concept of a market in the modern sense. For the most part markets were…
They have said in depositions that they just did substring searches or fed lists to chat gpt, it’s not even a question.
Used to happen to me constantly trying to go across the bay bridge in either direction when I lived in Oakland. I didn’t even mind the cancelations so much but the worst was when they would try and hide around the…
The long term part is overstated in my experience. People move around a lot at these offshoring firms as better opportunities arise. In my experience by the time you find someone competent they’re already interviewing…
They’ve always been pretty bad but it feels worse post Hawaiian merger
There was a Rohde and Schwarz rep that was pretty active on those forums when I still paid attention to it, might count for something. Hard to justify going with the legacy brands as hobbyist with what comes out of…
I went to Stanford and that was absolutely not the case. I once got an A on a midterm with a 65%
I’m not sure how it factors into the overall admission statistics but getting accepted for a coterm is, or at least was, significantly easier and more straightforward. In my time it just meant a GPA above a certain…
I mean, the rear window was still transparent it’s not like a couldn’t see where I was going entirely. I did miss the much wider FOV of the camera when backing out of my garage though.
Kim Kelly does excellent labor reporting for them
For anyone who thinks the comparisons to monarchy are an overreaction look up favorite philosopher of Peter Thiel and JD Vance Curtis Yarvin. He quite explicitly calls for a “CEO king” to fire all federal employees and…
From Matt Levine on his everything is securities fraud theory An odd fact of the U.S. legal system for public companies is that every crime is also securities fraud: If a company does a bad thing, and regulators find…
It’s also possible to build a perfectly performant closed loop controller with micropython on an STM32
I tend to think of an SoC as "MCU with other peripherals not typically on an MCU", so BLE/WiFi radio or maybe gate drivers for motor control. But usually radios. As you pointed out "not typically on an MCU" is a moving…
I've had very similar experiences working with former researchers including at a university spinout. Mechanical rather than CS. It was perplexing how they still carried the elitism that industry was mostly for people…
Yup, ours was a factory fresh Keysight branded model
SF politics come into play here as well. There’s been talk of expanding the runways so visual approaches wouldn’t be needed for decades now, but Aaron Peskin seems to have made it his personal issue to kill it at every…
All the major suppliers make hermaphroditic connectors, but like you I’ve only ever seen the powerpoles in person.
24 hours of lemons has a similar rule. As far as I know the race organizers have only ever taken the option to purchase a car once. A friend of mine raced lemons for years and said the biggest offenders were people who…
If they don’t want to play in that space why do they own Zoox?
In what way did he hide it well? I’d best describe the story as “racist has a secret life where he’s even more racist” https://twitter.com/RichardHanania/status/165754101074508185...
Marc did a podcast chatting about tv shows with fascist and white supremamcist Richard Hanania, so maybe I shouldn't have been as surprised as I was to see that.…
As a firmware engineer I’m horrified at the presumption that hardware is always operating correctly. Many times I’ve been told “your new firmware is broken” and the real problem is something as mundane as an improper…
My current company was somewhat involved with them as a supplier I think, before my time. They never had robotic pizza trucks, they were just regular pizza trucks with an app. They hired so many engineers they loaned…
