Our after/before school system is run in partnership with the local YMCAs. There are high school kids that help in addition to some teachers, paid extra for their time, and paid st…

All the schools in my area have before and after school programs for parents that both work or single parents or any other reason you want your kids to be at school longer. I recal…

Which company is building the silicon for Google? Is it tsmc? What node size? I didn't see it with a quick search, sorry if it was in the post.

I don't get it, AI does some impressive things but I don't trust it to write any code that goes to production. I've used AI for many one off python scripts for visualizing some log…

I also recommend that podcast but I would suggest balancing it with '5-4' podcast or 'strict scrutiny'. Sara and David do a very good job explaining both sides and the law but ther…

Cooling is more difficult in space, yes it's colder, but transferring heat is more difficult.

This is not true, in my experience, in rural Indiana. I hear the n word a lot for an area that I have yet to meet a black person. One neighbor was complaining about the California …

You'd probably still win the wager but I do want to say there are some of us using C23. We even use it in our embedded systems running on arm based microcontrollers. Though we stil…

Or you get ostracized for saying you don't want to have to involve lawyers to get your wife the medical care she needs. Depends on where you are in the country.

I have never seen such a system that I thought worked or wasn't just gamed into uselessness. Do you have any examples of systems that worked well?

Entirely possible I don't understand something as I'm not sure what you mean by taking advantage of higher data rates. We're sending data over UART at the max rate that doesn't int…

We just upgraded from Xmodem to Kermit last week in our embedded device.

It probably depends on the bank somewhat. My local community Bank in a small rural town won't have many, if any, million dollar home mortgages, maybe some of the farm or business l…

Forgive my confusion, but, are you saying you would pay $15 for a meal that cost $35?

I have not used this and it says it targets embedded systems but maybe it is close enough to what you might be looking for: https://github.com/knurling-rs/defmt

I've used https://github.com/rokath/trice which is similar but targeting microcontrollers. It isn't immediately clear to me if nanolog could run on a microcontroller with its outpu…

Despite the project being archived and no longer maintained I continue to use it and recommend it. I use sourcetrail when diving into new codebases to help get a sense of the flow …

Last year I discovered I really enjoy group workouts. The local YMCA has several group classes and I find it far easier to exert myself and go when there is a group of people all d…

Edge cases. If d is very large then 2*d might be larger than what can be computed. Also I think the code could just multiply d by -1 which would "reverse the sign". Even that has s…

Safety certifications add to cost. We recently took an EVSE through certification and although we passed on the first try it was still expensive and to pass on the first try we did…
