Looks like DDG gets it right (very first link). https://duckduckgo.com/?q=realsense+"failed+to+recconect"

Here are some of the things I use to increase the range of programs for which I can use vi keybindings: * vscodevim extension for Vscode * "set -o vi" in Bash * Vim Vixen plugin fo…

The pedantic point of the article is that an error in this situation isn't correct. The average is 8e307 and 8e307 is 8e307.

>I have hand placed 01005 parts Any more details you'd care to share? I was thinking of a project to use some 0402 LEDs in a pattern, and I've been balking at it.

>compared to the modern form of the equations Are the Geometric Algebra... ∇F = μ₀cJ ..and Differential Form... dF = 0 d⋆F = J ...equivalents post-modern? https://en.wikipedia.org/…

Does anyone have a link to a video of the oil drop tunneling experiment? https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.10... (like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmC0y…

Chapter 4 of "The Art of Prolog" ("The Computation Model of Logic Programs") is about that very topic. It doesn't go into gory details on how to optimize an interpreter for fast ex…

A good book to read to get aquainted with these notions is "Meta Math" by Gregory Chaitin. The impatient can jump to chapter 5. https://arxiv.org/abs/math/0404335

...since you have been interested in the matrix form of sqrt(-1), I thought you might also be interested in the book I recently came across as well, "The Naked Spinor: A Rewrite of…

What is so special about transistors? There are many non-linear active devices that are relatively unexplored due to the local maximum of transistors. How about homemade flame trio…

Yes, that looks to be exactly the type of thing I'm thinking of. Thanks.

That sounds like the traditional method of learning math. I was wondering if we could leverage technology and our experiences with teaching/learning the formal systems of programmi…

I also what a running commentary would do for authors. Would they get ideas for improving their next paper, by looking at what had people confused? Surprised by who is reading thei…

>learning math is just really, really hard. I'll accept the premise, but I still wonder if there are things that can be done to make it easier for someone. In my case, I've been tr…

You can run a Stirling engine on much lower temperature differentials: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_the_Stirling_e... https://www.amazon.com/Three-Stirling-Engines…

Seconded. I've only just started it, but it really resonates with me so far. It is about how to better use time / avoid distraction.

>I suggest teaching vectors before trig. You can get the cosine and sine from the dot and cross products. What about geometric algebra instead? http://www.shapeoperator.com/2016/12…

Your mention of deliberate practice prompted me reinvestigate the guy who was doing the 10,000 hours of deliberate practice to become a golf pro. Unfortunately, from what I can tel…

Anyone have a comparison to the "Code the Matrix" book and lectures? http://codingthematrix.com/ https://cs.brown.edu/video/channels/coding-matrix-fall-2014/

Thanks. I'll start looking into algebraic geometry and abstract algebra. https://www.amazon.com/Algebraic-Scientists-Engineers-Mathem... https://www.amazon.com/Book-Abstract-Algebr…

In reading the author's other article, "Cross Product Considered Harmful", and I bet he would be interested in section 1.3 (starting on page 13) of the book "An Introduction to Com…

Anyone have recommendations for learning about mechanical linkages (books/MOOC/other)? Recently I've been intrigued by things like straight line linkages: https://en.wikipedia.org/…
