Sort of, but if the objective is to get hired for a hardware design job, I think that even the font aside, the overall aesthetics of the PCB aren't great. There are several places where component text overlaps other…
These aren't annual pay packages. It's some "can't retire on that" base salary plus a promise of gradually vesting equity on a multi-year schedule. For public companies, you'll get that amount if you hang around for x…
> an outdated relic kept alive by the electoral college. And yet, farmers are a vocal and critical political bloc in every other EU country, too. Farming is just important. Not as much because it employs a large portion…
I get the broader point, but the infosec framing here is weird. It's a naive and dangerous view that the defense efforts are only as strong as the weakest link. If you're building your security program that way, you're…
I hate to say this, but it seems like a pretty clear case of using the wrong tool for the job. There's no conceivable reason to cut something this simple on a large-format CNC mill. It's literally just a couple of…
You can make some plausible arguments against glass. It scratches more easily and doesn't shimmer as much. But synthetic sapphire is the same league and costs a lot less. The modern-day aesthetic of diamonds is just…
Huh? Chinese citizens are free to apply to jobs in the Western world, and most companies are happy to hire them. Also, while the Chinese intelligence apparatus undoubtedly has easier access to Chinese nationals, the…
In principle. But in practice, the industry doesn't need nearly as many mathematicians as it does software engineers, and almost no one is getting into CS out of the love of math. CS coursework reflects that. Here are…
What you're describing is the domain of a very, very small number of hobbyists with very deep pockets (plus various govt-funded entities). The vast majority of hobby astrophotography is done pretty much as the webpage…
I think that term is reserved mostly for actual artwork (renderings, paintings, etc). Some deep-space astronomy pictures are in completely made-up color, often because they're taken at wavelengths different than visible…
Maslow is self-propelled using cables. It's the same goal - expand the work area by getting rid of a rigid frame of the mill - but a fundamentally different way of getting there. Here, you're the one moving the mill to…
A CNC router with a work area suitable for typical woodworking projects is definitely not $300 - you're probably thinking about 3018 kits, but with 18 cm of travel, that's really not enough for the usual scale of…
It's probably worth noting that a commercial version of this exists (Shaper Origin). It's a bit pricey but is remarkably nice for a variety of tasks that can't be handled by a stationary mill. And because it's hands-on,…
I think it's also a matter of skill and employer density, so to speak? There are some exceptions, but by and large - if you're in a typical metro area and want an IT job, you probably don't need to move. If you want a…
Wasn't the "mixture of experts" a big thing in late 2023? The idea was that a vendor has a number of LLMs fine-tuned for specific tasks, none necessarily better than other, and that they applied heuristics to decide…
The standard doesn't specify any serviceable parts, and I don't think there are any internals of the struct defined in musl libc on Linux (glibc may be a different story). However, on OpenBSD, it did seem to have some…
I work on niche platforms where the amount of example code on Github is minimal, and this definitely aligns with my observations. The error rate is way too high to make "vibe coding" possible. I think it's a good…
I disagree. The most obvious message this telegraphs is "I don't respect you or your argument enough to parse it and articulate a response, why don't you argue with a machine instead". That's rude. There is an…
It reminds me of a hotel I stayed at that had a stocked mini-fridge. Removing any item from the fridge resulted in an automatic, silent charge. Putting it back did not remove the charge. So if you simply took something…
