In terms of control theory, the order "delay" is actually a simple filter. What leads to bad outcomes is exactly the described scenario, when the control response too fast for the system, overcorrecting and oscillating. Increasing

I am a big fan of learning LISP, at least once. Going through SICP after more than a decade of writing code for a living was probably the single best thing I did to deepen my understanding of a lot of compsci concepts, data structures, and

Indeed I have 3D assets in this case. Would this be done differently in an enterprise that has all kinds of tools to manage specialty workflows? Sure. Do I want to spend my days configuring and maintaining some binary blob / LFS storag

I keep coming back to fossil again and again, despite git having a huge pull because of the easy publishing and collab on github/gitlab. Just the other day I was starting an exploratory project, and thought: I'll just use git so I

This is probably a longer discussion, but PM0.3 (anything less than 0.3 microns) is quite difficult to measure, especially optically, as light scattering drops off very steeply once your particle sizes are around the wavelength of the light

While I admire the efforts of the SC-AQMD, and generally agree with the article, using R2 from a higher-end, but not quite perfect instrument, can be quite misleading, and is not a great indicator of actual sensor performance. Also, there a

I kind of went the other way as github/gitlab took off. I was using fossil for years because it was so self contained with issue tracking and everything, and it is great, but the lack of easy two-way interop with github had me graduall

My understanding is that Quicktime Player has been in the SIP domain for recent OS releases, so it just won't load 3rd party libraries at all :/

I'd claim things are more nuanced. There are many reasons why UIs in many places, not just cars, suck. In cars, wether warranted or not, there is also pressure from legal to err on the side of building a cludge that is unassailable vs.

Wouldn't an open lamp severely degrade all kinds of paints and materials that aren't meant to be exposed to UV light? Or does the mechanism that supposedly makes the shorter wavelength safe for human skin cells apply to all materi

I’ve just finished an rpi based device that would be going into mass production if it wasn’t for the parts shortage, with some digital IO and I2C. It took me about a year calendar time to convert the software stack to elixir+nerves as a sid

I think "dynamic and introspective" would have been more precise, as opposed to "free form" grammars.

Io was fantastic as a personal learning vehicle, over ten years ago. I did have a game project that used it, right in the lull where Lua’s FFI was still a little rough and JS did not quite break out of the browser. Its simplicity also made

One can verify and sign off on computations that approximate the physics or chemistry that will occur in a structure or machine, as a well established chain of procedures exist to go from crude formulaic approximations to micro or, if neces

IMO, the single biggest problem is that even five-figure reference instruments disagree considerably in the 0-20 ug/m3 range, and if you look at the figures of the SCAQMD tests, you won't see much more than noise in the scatter pl

As radiative cooling is a temperature to the 4th power (T^4) process, vs. linear (T^1) for conductive and convective cooling, one could certainly increase power density for general electronics, though the danger of setting something on fire

I'm not so convinced I'm seeing the limits of resolution, either angular or depth. Using parallax to calculate depth undoubtedly has principal limitations in far away details, and mapping to an 8-bit depth buffer is another very r

It is kind of disappointing that it doesn't seem to map any of the folds in the garment, the individual fingers, or other details. It also seems to get the depth around the knob by the right elbow quite wrong. All-in-all, no apparent o

A nice exposition! I think Omniplan does this [1], and it certainly helped me in the past get a better idea on variability of long-term project planning. Of course, it's only as good as the assumptions that go into it! [1] https:&#x2F

That PCBite probe setup look nifty indeed, thanks for the tip (pun intended)!

Interesting points! I am not sure which is right, or legal, but there seem to be grey zones, yet. > Another red herring here... it is irrelevant how superficially close this is to the original source code. It wasn't until Apple vs.

It seems like using something that's reverse engineering to achieve "interoperability", in this case playing the games on modern hardware, is generally legal in the US/EU, as long as you also own a license to the origina

Yes, higher exhaust temperature is not a direct indicator. For the same airflow, higher exhaust temperature suggests more energy being carried away, which can reduce chip temp, all else being the same. If the airflow was reduced, but the he
