    In terms of control theory, the order "delay" is actually a simple filter. What leads to bad outcomes is exactly the described scenario, when the control response too fast for the …

    I am a big fan of learning LISP, at least once. Going through SICP after more than a decade of writing code for a living was probably the single best thing I did to deepen my under…

    Indeed, how exciting a phone would be that fit in... you know... bear with me... your pants' pocket you already have... lol

    Indeed I have 3D assets in this case. Would this be done differently in an enterprise that has all kinds of tools to manage specialty workflows? Sure. Do I want to spend my days co…

    I keep coming back to fossil again and again, despite git having a huge pull because of the easy publishing and collab on github/gitlab. Just the other day I was starting an explor…

    I was under the impression you could only activate one esim at a time, but store up to 6(?) on that phone?

    This is probably a longer discussion, but PM0.3 (anything less than 0.3 microns) is quite difficult to measure, especially optically, as light scattering drops off very steeply onc…

    While I admire the efforts of the SC-AQMD, and generally agree with the article, using R2 from a higher-end, but not quite perfect instrument, can be quite misleading, and is not a…

    I kind of went the other way as github/gitlab took off. I was using fossil for years because it was so self contained with issue tracking and everything, and it is great, but the l…

    My understanding is that Quicktime Player has been in the SIP domain for recent OS releases, so it just won't load 3rd party libraries at all :/

    I'd claim things are more nuanced. There are many reasons why UIs in many places, not just cars, suck. In cars, wether warranted or not, there is also pressure from legal to err on…

    I just bought 10 off digikey last week, to have some prototyping stock. Looks like they still got some: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/stmicroelectronic... Octopart, et…

    Wouldn't an open lamp severely degrade all kinds of paints and materials that aren't meant to be exposed to UV light? Or does the mechanism that supposedly makes the shorter wavele…

    So far, so good -- let's see what the pricing will be like :)

    I’ve just finished an rpi based device that would be going into mass production if it wasn’t for the parts shortage, with some digital IO and I2C. It took me about a year calendar …

    Seeing the same in PA, quarts of many brands are out of stock at various stores, but half gallon and up are available.

    I think "dynamic and introspective" would have been more precise, as opposed to "free form" grammars.

    Io was fantastic as a personal learning vehicle, over ten years ago. I did have a game project that used it, right in the lull where Lua’s FFI was still a little rough and JS did n…

    One can verify and sign off on computations that approximate the physics or chemistry that will occur in a structure or machine, as a well established chain of procedures exist to …

    IMO, the single biggest problem is that even five-figure reference instruments disagree considerably in the 0-20 ug/m3 range, and if you look at the figures of the SCAQMD tests, yo…

    As radiative cooling is a temperature to the 4th power (T^4) process, vs. linear (T^1) for conductive and convective cooling, one could certainly increase power density for general…

    I'm not so convinced I'm seeing the limits of resolution, either angular or depth. Using parallax to calculate depth undoubtedly has principal limitations in far away details, and …

    It is kind of disappointing that it doesn't seem to map any of the folds in the garment, the individual fingers, or other details. It also seems to get the depth around the knob by…
