I think it's very area specific - how prosperous the area is. Reading that post was like he was at my school, word for word. I was on the "not bullied end" of that arrangement and life was still hell as you had to constantly

If you want a good finder for still work, you’re much better off with an SLR such as the Nikon F3. The M3 is a stunning camera but it’s usability is very low for anything but some casual stuff. People like them for the prestige.

I'm not sure what that poster was referring to, however in my experience (as a brit), is that the UK is replacing any kind of industry into a service economy aka. people buying shit they don't need. You see this in a number of way

As an electronic engineer of 10 years, one of the most useful things in my lab is blue tac[1]. It's so useful and versatile as a third hand for soldering or keep things from moving around attached to cables etc. [1] https://

ESP32 is my go to MCU to use now. Their tooling and libraries are so far ahead of the competition especially when you factor in the choice of CLI or VS Code - an actually good IDE. ESP-IDF is so reliable and easy to use I don’t feel the nee

I think others have covered it in other posts but I’d just like to add that this protocol is only for negotiation, everything continues in the native protocol afterwards.

Looks awesome and for sure will be the future. Most ECAD software has a circuit 'library' function you can design something once and use it many times so it's not completely fair to claim that's something really novel.

It doesn't. Just because it shares some syntax with C does not make it 'want to be procedural'. I think that comes from the programmers bias from first learning a procedural language. I learnt C then Verilog, I am fluent in V

> "you need to work out what you want in this other paradigm and then translate it" Not really. You wouldn't expect good programs from someone who has no idea how a computer works. The language is the knobs and dials. You

I don’t understand the problem people have with pointers, they are an amazing tool. And the negative attitude towards manual memory allocation just seems like laziness to me and even suggests a lack of understanding for both what you’re doi

I don’t think this is the case as we don’t see any rolling shutter distortion. The linear sensor scans just like a shutter curtain exhibiting the same distortion. The plane is proportioned correctly. Maybe the scan time is fast enough.

I love gaming as much as the next person - I spent most of my teens playing Half Life and the like. I have a genuine question as I’m very naive to Minecraft. I see a lot of time / thought / energy dedicated to making things in Min

I’m exactly the same as the person in the article. I’m introverted and don’t enjoy participating in activities with more than a couple of people. I have no problem doing it - I just don’t like to. It seems gender or race can’t be questioned

I heard they concluded the best sign was no sign. Any sign would draw attention to the site if it could not be understood. The best thing to do is to bury waste as deep as possible in secure and boring (geologically) locations to reduce the

In all honesty, out of the combinations for two and three letter acronyms there’s bound to be a language out the there where the meaning is crude. I recall on here recently, something being rude in Finnish or Swedish. We’re professionals, i

This may be a stupid point, but, for personal use of computers in their current form, how much memory do you really need? I’m still a little baffled why chrome requires GBs of memory...? Can we have lean software please?

Is there any real value in PCBs like these these days? 2 layers from China can be fast and is very cheap. You can’t do anything complicated on these single layer DIY boards, they also carry the risk of defects potentially causing a lot of f

Is anyone else conflicted by the desire for something better than a light switch in the home and the idea of bringing more tech into home. The negative of tech in the home being compromising privacy?
