Reword a public announcement [1], slap on a misleading title, put it behind a cookie banner and paywall and boom - Journalism! "Bose is releasing documentation for EOL smart speake…

> dot += A[i] * B[i]; Isn't it pretty bad for accuracy to accumulate large numbers of floats in this fashion? o.O In the example it's 640,000 numbers. log2(640,000) is ~19.3 but th…

I'm extremely disappointed to learn that Firefox allows access to motion sensors by default and provides no option to make it ask for permission. It can only be disabled completely…

After dismissing the final pop-up it will go on to proclaim: > Yes! > 80085 is 00000000000000000 in binary!

I did. I have an "Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1" (what a mouthful) and the volume is always too high and the audio ridiculously bad at "low" volumes. Changing some values with ALSA makes…

Sorry, some objections... > It's for deep learning, not that much "for graphics". No, while it is true that there is some overlap between the techniques and concepts used, gaussian…

I think I finally managed to disable tracker-miner on xfce. systemctl --user list-unit-files | grep -o "tracker-\S*\.service" | xargs systemctl --user mask ...wasn't enough. What d…

AFAIK with the Nokia N900 this was possible in 2009 using gstreamer. I never actually used it to create a video device but I assume that the v4l2sink was already a thing back then.…

Thanks a lot for the answers. And for everything else, too!

Good results without optimization at 300 mm sounds pretty impressive. Maybe belts are the way to go. Thanks for taking the time to elaborate!

It renders fine on my end. Try checking if your browser is blocking cdnjs.cloudflare.com for some reason.

> if you really care about backlash At 1200 mm equivalent a picture is only about 1.15° high, so accuracy is important :) > just measure it and then add a correction in your motor …

Great project and excellent presentation! I've been trying to build something similar for tracking birds / panoramas / photogrammetry while avoiding using non-printed parts as much…

Have you tried the search at the bottom of this site? (Just in case you missed it) Anyway, I think this might be the submission you're looking for: https://news.ycombinator.com/ite…

If the device is rooted, tcpdump is also an option.

No need, as there is solidpython [1] which lets you use OpenSCAD from Python. The notation is brief, Pythons expressiveness makes everything easier and the learning curve is extrem…

...and if you're wondering what 1g eyeballs out feels like, you can always try looking at your feet.

Shameless plug: A friend of mine and I made a game[1] for a jam that works the other way around. The goal is to manually fiddle with the coefficients to recreate a given shape. It …

I tried extending your tune by eight beats to make it loop more smoothly: https://music-grid.surge.sh/#2048-264-2048-168-256-256-144-6...

I can't find it now, but there was a post on HN where someone shared a report regarding their social media activity. It was compiled by a firm that offers to "research" potential e…
