Are there approximate solutions with fewer sides that would have less than 1 in a trillion or something unfairness?

I think there's no real need to learn with leaded anymore now that we have temp controlled irons and better fluxes and such. Wearing gloves and washing your hands five million times is more annoying than just using lead free. And even

The important thing with lead free is you're not looking for the color or texture when inspecting, you're looking for the shape, and absence of any tiny seam or cracks. It's probably not gonna be 100% shiny, that's fine,

C245 clones seem to be the new current standard tip format, they're pretty nice. Not supported by any open third party firmware usually, but that's fine with me. One thing to watch out for is tip grounding, some cheap irons leak a

I tried to start something similar as a GitHub Awesome list(awesome-standards), but this seems like it could be way more powerful. Although this seems to be focused on specialist professionals, and I was focusing on things that are universa

I think an actually interesting malleable solid base for non-hackers would be a platform that you log into, create a workspace, share it, and add an app made of some JS that runs in a sandbox, everything fully managed, your app never sees e

Is there a reliable app to detect these without using excessive amounts of battery?

Atuin already solves that very well for me, although I might consider this for new commands

I use it rather often in professional projects, usually for figuring out power supply inrush transients, and I usually point anyone who wants to learn electronics to it. Just be sure you set the simulation step size appropriately if there&#

It looks really cool, except the case looks like it puts mechanical force on the connectors, which aren't exactly known for reliability. Having a tie bar with a screw into each half, or even just some bosses to prevent lateral movement

I have a ~200 line file of style rules that I copy and paste between all my projects(There's got to be a better way to manage files like that!) but I can never quite tell if it's helping anything.... I usually prompt with very spe

I have my own personal formal debrief process for larger projects: https://github.com/EternityForest/THUNDERWARS Usually if I notice anything of interest to others, it just winds up in a group chat.

There are two other solutions, make the automation so reliable that the human skill is not needed, or make the consequences of failure low enough that you can just accept failure. As far as I know, Places that actually care about safety app

I've been doing LARP and tabletop most of my life, that's exactly the feel I was going for. Most of the actual functional "backend" parts come from computer science and various research used in safety critical industries

I can't imagine that mics are going to be affected by anything that doesn't also seriously bother at least some animals, definitely not something I'd use outside of some ultra secure conference room or something.

A web based inventory management app. I've wanted to try something like this for a long time, but it always seemed completely impractical to spend a few weeks on before AI, without knowing if the entire idea is actually practical. So

Local hubs solve that pretty well, aside from still needing to update the hub.

I remember doing my own backups with rsync a super long time ago! It worked pretty well, but it didn't have compression, encryption, desktop integration, or deduplication, and adding anything would be one more script to maintain. Now

I'd love to see a new battery standard. Something future proof for new chemistries, consumer friendly and self protected, able to be series-es and paralleled if needed, etc. Maybe even designed to be an external part of the case like 2

I've been using one folder per client, one folder per project for years, with no issues, although I don't tend to work on small pieces very often, I rarely do anything that seems too small to make its own project folder. I used to

Sodium ion showed up a year or two ago and you can buy them on Amazon as 12v lead acid replacements, 18650s are also available but the voltage range is different from normal lithium.

Debugging rarely works correctly between languages, and features like "find all references" usually break too. Maybe that's not an issue with Prolog because a C logic solver would also be hard to debug, but it's a probl

Is there an online demo? How does it compare to Opus?

Tests freeze behavior in place, and manual end to end testing can confirm that the most common paths are at least kind of correct ish. Obviously that's not good enough, but I'd much rather have AI tests than poor test coverage.

I'm surprised there's not a lot more work on "backend free" systems. A lot of apps seem like they could literally all use the same exact backend, if there was a service that just gave you the 20 or so features these kind
