I started down this path a few months ago. Here's a few links I've collected that have been useful - https://nandgame.com/ - https://www.asic-world.com/verilog/verilog_one_day.html - https:&

I loved smith charts during my microwave classes in college. I've always felt like there should be a fun game based on the mechanics of using a smith chart.

I almost never turn on my camera unless I'm hosting a status meeting (and I don't expect other too). Most of my 'video' calls are with one or two other people debugging something and sharing my screen. When compiling and

I think this is a result of adults making up a much larger share of gamers and profits to gaming companies. I've noticed myself doing this and I can pause it if I try but I don't think I can turn it off. Playing games as a kid, it

I've always thought it was like a smoke shop. They say their products are for tobacco but everyone knows what its really for. Same with VPN, they say it's for all those things above but accessing geo-restricted content seems like

To your point about others not teaching well to preserve their status, I'm sure it exists but not that prevalent. I think people who have known something for a long time just forget how to empathize with not understanding what they&#x2

The issue is that the scanning happens on your device just before upload. So now your own device is scanning for illegal activity _on_ your phone not the servers. The second issue is that it will alert authorities. In regards to CSAM conten

It will probably work as well as it does for murderers. There's not really a demand for murder so there's not continually new people filling their shoes when they get arrested. Drug dealers on the other hand will never go away no

I wholeheartedly disagree. I have an undergrad and masters in Electrical Engineering. I work as a Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Software Developer. On the lower end I've improved DSP C code by rewriting important sections in assembly

I've noticed something similar in University that was very frustrating for me. Freshmen and Sophmore year all math classes had tens or hundreds of problems that get progressively harder and bring out every corner case e.g. take then de

Thank you I really appreciate your encouragement. I understand why you may want to be anonymous and especially for the example you gave. I don't think that's my blocker however I can certainly give it a try. Organizing my thoughts

While a bit of a tangent I think this is a wonderful exploration on reasoning how complex writing things down can be. Remembering a dream is a very apt comparison, it all fragments and falls apart the more you try to put it together. I beli

I'm hesitant to declare this about myself because of all the biases that can be at play and what not but I generally feel I may be similar. Sure once I make a post I'll check back for responses/likes but it's never on my

Are you me? I've always wanted to go into space and I have the same heart condition. I found your blog where you posted about it further and I get the same migraines too lmao. I'll shoot you an email. Mine is my username at gmail.

I almost did this exact thing. I guess I do regret it but there's no way I would have ever held on to any of it after it hit $1000/ea. Maybe less. It's a lot easier knowing I passed up on a couple hundred thousand dollars and

As far as cancer rates go I've heard it's about as bad as taking up smoking cigarettes. Which is not great but doesn't seem like a show stopper

I believe at age 16 the government can't force you to go to school anymore. So one would just stop going to class, putting in the "butts in seats" time and never finish the required classes to graduate. I guess that's ba

As far as John Deere goes I think it has to do with the presumed equipment that they could design and send to mars for colonization. There was a conference SpaceX put on a year or two ago with a bunch of companies traditionally un-releated

Haha this is very true. This also seems very true for Algebra and Calculus. I never really remembered/internalized all of the rules of Algebra (moving around log, e, ln, a^x, etc) until doing derivatives/integrals by hand

My instinctive guess is that it has to do with the spins of two electrons "balancing" each other keeping them closer to the nucleus.

Hey there! If you would like to give it another shot I would love to have a mentor. I'm not looking for a job or interview help. I'm looking for genuine conversation about experiences and advice from a more senior dev, tech stacks
