Using the Adafruit breakout board, I had no problems other than an SPI bug in the Arduino core. Be warned that they are fragile when not protected, I sheared off the flex cable on …

Yeah that would be another few orders of magnitude smaller power budget. But I love the idea. My project so AMA (although this doesn't seem to be blowing up here on HN :-)

IPC is still improving, so single thread performance is still increasing, even if clock speeds are not (at least not at the same as before). And new instructions (AVX ect) also hel…

There is a forum dedicated to devices like this at https://forum.ei2030.org/ - also a zulip chat linked there which is more active.

There is https://vespa.ai which is fully open source and free (but we do run a service if you want one).

I don't think it's too different from an ICE car. Based on what I've seen in the used car market here in Norway it seems much the same. Applying the same logic, The lifespan of an …

Reminds me of the recent Lisperati1000: https://www.hackster.io/news/the-lisperati1000-is-a-cyberdec... I think these personal terminals are really cool, and might foster some inte…

There's much in this thread about the helmet absorbing the energy of the impact, but that's far from the whole benefit of wearing one. The helmet, by conforming to the shape of you…

Just an FYI to your last paragraph: The core indexing/ranking/storage components of Vespa are C++, and run in a separate process (no jni). In my own attempt to compare the two, I f…

With that out of the way ... hope they can add IPv6 support next!

Here’s a sensor that’s already used by the local police to monitor the breathing of those locked up over night - to be able to respond asap if someone stops breathing after excessi…

I find this to be an interesting question. Given a modern, high-performance compiling lisp implementation on a modern CPU, say SBCL on x86_64. What modification or addition to the …

Very nice, nothing to install, very little that can go wrong - if you can read the text, you can do the exercises. I wish the picture language part worked too, because that's the h…

Technological innovation can also arise as a consequence of the minimum wage being high. By increasing the cost of human labor, automation becomes relatively cheaper / more cost ef…

Are these in unicode already, or are they really Apple specific?

It could be a replacement for the 'E', but the APIs are different enough that there's no drop-in replacement for the 'L' and 'K' and creating or making those compatible would be a …

In our tests, vespamalloc has simply been faster. I don't know how in-depth the analysis has been as to why, but obviously vespamalloc is written and tuned for Vespa so that is a l…
