    It's difficult to speculate as to the exact failure from blurry pictures but the solder on that choke (inductor) looks terrible. Something went wrong in manufacturing. The solder s…

    I'm ashamed to admit, I had too many tabs open to notice :|

    Just curious, what's your setup like? How do the devs interact with the model?

    But hey, the dev was generous to give it an MIT license, you could always just fork it and what you like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    It's not the biggest flaw, there are plenty others, but it does seem to be universally disliked. For example, there is not much you could do to Finder to make it worse.

    That last sentence holds a lot of truth. Our company has drastically downsized its dependence on Atlassian in the past month, we will be completely free in a few more. With the hel…

    The flickering is solely a result of cost cutting in the power supplies of these LED lights. The problem is totally solvable with a constant current switching power supply. But the…

    Love the aesthetic, even more, that you published the source! I bought a copy on Steam, thank you for your work! Any plans to add more advanced campaigns, say, to build up to a sim…

    This sounds very interesting, would you be able to share a little more about your process? What works and what doesn't?

    It's a negligible amount, especially if you (or your car) does rev matching. My last car (BMW 328) made it to 300k miles on the original clutch.

    There could be a few benefits to what is proposed in the article, here are my semi-educated guesses. 1. Less dependent on local geology. Geothermal wells are well suited for hot, n…

    200W at 300g is realistic for a modern BLDC motor. The article states that Maxon was the motor supplier so they likely used the EC-4pole series, I'm guessing it's one of these. htt…

    The Petzl Am'D Ball-Lock[1] is the best locking carabiner I've encountered in the last decade of climbing. 1: https://www.petzl.com/US/en/Professional/Connectors/Am-D

    Do you think you could elaborate on why the results differ? I'm somewhat unfamiliar with how JavaScript works.

    Does this work for user defined classes (objects) as well?

    Has anyone tried a controller for cooling that is dependent on processor current consumption? Temperature measurements lag, but the current used by the processor is instantaneous a…

    A Kalman filter will give you the "best guess" for some state (x) at the current timestep (k). This estimate often has some lag in it, likely because you have some incomplete infor…

    We develop navigation instrumentation for directional drilling (oil/gas, geothermal, etc.). In these applications you have to estimate the path of the drilling string based on dire…

    No, it doesn't appear so. It seems the bristles do wear out somehow, to me it appears that they simply become less stiff over time. The change to a new brush head is noticeable. Th…

    The optimization libraries in SciPy are surprisingly bad. I've found Mystic to be a great alternative. https://github.com/uqfoundation/mystic
