“In Feb. 2024, Stardew Valley reached 30 million copies sold, and if we assume each copy sold for $15, that means that the game could have generated a revenue of $450 million. A modest 10 percent profit margin puts ConcernedApe’s earnings a

Should we also stop adding iodide to salt or fortifying white bread? I see your point, but society has benefited as a whole by forcing some of these substances onto populations. I think it's fairly evident that many humans in the US ar

Side note, I really wish software would stop using EE terminology to name things. Ohm, Capacitor, Electron, etc. It muddies up search results for no good reason. Is there a reason this has become a trend lately?

Unfortunately its not a mirror. Some extensions have licensing issues that prevent them from being on open-vsx. For example PlatformIO. I ran into this issue earlier this week when trying to set up Windsurf which uses open-vsx.

Are there any equivalents that work in Windows 11? There were a handful that worked in previous versions of Windows but lots of them won't work in W11 and those that say they do are risky installs.

Somewhat related is the The Rock-afire Explosion band from ShowBiz Pizza Place. There is an excellent documentary on the history and some of the fans preserving the technology. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTmhS6hcY-A

Very cool to see how it all came together. Can you elaborate on why you chose to use a Kalman filter in your signal chain?

I am a fan of the grey market Fluke 17B+. You get many of the features of the high end Flukes like the 87V without the high cost. They are my go to for non critical lab measurements.

8uA is still large compared to some other options. I work on medical implants that average 15uA while actively sensing biological signals 24hr/day. This includes the analog front end hardware to condition the signals as well. 8uA of de

I love seeing hardware posts on here. I often use colors other than green to differentiate revisions, however green typically has the smallest minimum web requirement which makes a difference on high density designs.
