The top comment in the video mentions someone's experience with resistor binning with a batch of 10% resistors having no samples under 5%. Anyway, the resistors binned for tighter tolerances aren't going to have to have a trough i

It really died in 2019 when the protesters started setting fire to other Hong Kongers that disagreed with them by throwing Molotov cocktails at them, or just beating a guy in head with a large steel pipe for moving a brick out of the street

There's some muddled thinking going on there. The source doesn't make the argument that Bitcoin isn't energy intensive. If that's an issue for you, you should re-evaluate your views on Bitcoin, but denying it doesn'

The tweets you linked to link to another source [0], and are mostly paraphrased from that source, which makes the following argument: "Does Bitcoin justify its energy usage? Does it add enough value? So far, the market says it does.&qu

Well, if you want to resent rich people for being rich, that's your prerogative, but I don't think there's much benefit in seeing it that way. You mentioned planet ecosystem and consumption, so let's use energy as an exa

I've worked with and lived around both poor and relatively rich people, but I can't say that the rich stand out as lacking empathy or compassion specifically. From my experience I would say the opposite is true, creating "ant

That's a good way of verbalizing how I've felt with the last few iterations of macOS as well as Homebrew's perpetually changing behavior. Most of it feels like change for the sake of change. I've also used FreeBSD for se

I think avmich is getting at the idea that some actions may or may not be legal until determined to be a crime, at which point there would be two: the original crime, and using radio to facilitate it. This reminds me of a question on the US

The XPS 15 has a dedicated charging port that can draw much more power for the discrete GPU - up to 130W, but lets you charge it on the go with the USB-C port. You get full graphics performance with one but have the choice not to lug around

Economic feasibility is a different question, but we can say the same thing about EVs in Norway - they're not currently economically feasible there without significant incentives. That doesn't mean technology can't catch up.

> there is no "zero carbon diesel". There is, it’s called biodiesel. It’s certainly possible to be net zero carbon with synthetic fuels.
