The keywords you're missing are color spaces and gamma curves. For a given bandwidth, we want to efficiently allocate color encoding as well as brightness (logarithmically to captu…

Just out of curiosity - would you describe companies that are commonly in the spotlight as more mercenary than average?

ANCS gang rise up

I used to always remove affiliate codes from links, but after hearing about just how much revenue creators make from Amazon affiliate, I started clicking them if it’s a creator tha…

Ahh, gotcha, thanks for the tip. Yeah, systemd is easy to reach for, but it certainly has plenty of footguns.

I just did `ExecStart` with `multi-user.target`. That implies the unit is `simple`, so it very well could be sequencing incorrectly at boot and failing. That's a good point; I'll h…

Wow, thanks for this tip! I've been dealing with suspend issues with an X570 Aorus Master as well. Running `echo GPP0 >> /proc/acpi/wakeup` into a systemd unit at boot solved the i…

I've often heard people say that "true" perfect pitch can only be accomplished with synesthesia, but I have no idea if it's true. Back when I played clarinet, I had decent relative…

While I didn’t switch majors, I had a similar experience with my intro EE class. My theory was that it was intentionally a weeder class to push students towards the other engineeri…

That’s kinda the whole point, isn’t it? I’m just a layman, but my understanding is that the incompatibilities of GR and QM point to a need for a proper theory of gravity. Looking a…

From the abstract: > This unique configuration offers the opportunity to combine two major lensing cosmological probes: time-delay cosmography and dual source-plane lensing since J…

Gotcha, thanks! I'm not in the Apple Developer Program, but I'm tempted to do it just to be able to experiment with sideloading all sorts of LÖVE programs.

Carousel looks neat! I haven’t played around with Lua or LÖVE much, but this reminds me of Processing, except with more of a focus on creating useful mini-apps instead of visual ar…

About page: https://deskthing.app/about Looks like a project to open up Spotify’s discontinued Car Thing to homebrew apps. If the devs are reading this: the GitHub README and homep…

TechTechPotato (Ian Cutress’ YouTube channel) has a nice summary/analysis video of this here: https://youtu.be/j6kX7JWMiV0 As well as a longer form podcast video with George from C…

Computing and the Internet have matured and become so much more central to daily life. For better or worse, that's going to put limits on the quirks something like a smartphone can…

It’s very neat that ThreadX and friends are MIT licensed now. I used ThreadX and NetX a bunch before the acquisition and open sourcing, and generally enjoyed using them. TX has a t…

> I was just trying this weekend to compile a playlist celebrating Labor Day and I realized that I knew of zero songs about a strong work ethic, or loving one's employer, or enjoyi…

I haven’t seen any incredible outcomes from them, but I think they can be nice if they’re low key with no real expectation of productization. Definitely shouldn’t be any “prizes”. …

> Worst part is, a lot of device manufacturers just yeet the GATT out the window and have custom UUIDs with custom everything which you'll never be able to implement properly with …

I’m not much of a watch guy, but I got a “rep” moonswatch for under $20 as my first watch. It’s actually fairly convincing from a distance, but some of the dials were not zeroed pr…

Agreed. I’m honestly not familiar with how they’re structured for hardware contracts like this. I was imagining some sort of cost plus structure. No point in speculating on the det…

I get that you’re worried, but I think your kid is probably fine. They’re still a young kid in college at the end of the day. Figuring out how to deal with stuff like this is half …

Reading EE and DEFCON’s statements, I’m inclined to think whoever was managing this on DEFCON’s side was not on top of things and blinked at the last minute. I’m sure there were de…

Ahh, yeah I think you’re right. The story left a big impression on me, but I guess not well enough for me to remember the details. :)
