I switched to Godot expecting some pain but it was great. Way more depth of searchable stuff on the net to help figure things out than I expected. If you're thinking of starting a new project and you're experienced with unity, don

I posted this in a comment but going to post it again at the top level. For anyone interested in discussing this, I highly recommend you read the NHC forecasters day 2 summary. Ignore the media, just go straight to the source. This is very

That's just 5 20tb drives. Some cloud providers will copy it on to them if you send them in, and usually cheaper than the bandwidth cost. Same for ingress

Yes 100%. Get a ublox F9P board and antenna. Couple hundred dollars. Set it up to do RTK using public CORS base stations (will give you 2cm apx accuracy). You will get a kick out of it. Then next level is grab the latest rtklib, and do PPP

Ive been working with GNSS for the last decade and a bit, and this article and the comments here are a low point for HN in terms of people making comments about stuff they dont understand. PSA: if you want to learn about corrected GNSS, sto

In the unlikely event any Aussie or NZ farmers are reading this, it costs less than $1k to setup your own base station and transmit corrections via a number of RF links. One base station is good to a radius of about 60km, so not enough for

In my work I have had to evaluate a whole bunch of SBCs, and the Asus Tinkerboard is a cut above all the others. I expect the quality of this board to be similar

I design low volume specialist equipment, and would love to try these. Problem is I can't even talk to manufacturers at my volumes, and this probably won't be on Digi-Key/mouser/RS etc for years. If I were them I would g

Something about the honesty in the way this is written I love. I am a fan now of their gear even without reading any reviews. I just tried to buy one of their APs but looks like they arent available in my country.

A message to those diagnosed or not with ADHD. It's also ok to be yourself, and not try to 'fix' yourself. Shit at some aspects of life? All good. Good at some things? Great. Not saying treatment is bad, just that being yours
