I don't see how this is airgapped. You literally connect a full Pi to the RXing computer. What audit has RX Pi device gone through?

As I've gotten older, my knees have been the main signal letting me know. I tore my meniscus years ago. This is exciting news for people like me.

I can't recall, but I think it was about 7 years. Some will say that's an acceptable lifetime, but I think I did the math once, and estimated it was only a little less than laundro…

I beg to differ that Samsung makes good stuff. We had a Samsung front-loading washer. The drum and the crank that holds the drum were made of two different materials, and in the pr…

It's one of these Long Now things. The goal is to get people to think in long term time frames.

Masons and the Scottish Rite (and even the Boy Scouts and DeMolay to some extent) have religious components that exclude people like me.

I went to the local state school, and had an apartment off campus. At the end of the school year, we'd go dumpster diving, and get all the stuff thrown out. We would take orders fr…

Does this administration need to make sense?

Well, it's clear this was leaked so they can throw Waltz to the wolves. "He was a rogue employee, and he is the only one who did this." I am not conspiratorially minded, but I bet …

A good friend of mine was friends with Dan Brown when they were both kids. Dan broke his back (or something else just as serious), and was in a cast for a year+. My friend used to …

Is it the same for judging all MAGA as Nazis? I ask that in all earnestness. I am not a MAGA or a MAGA apologist.

I am not defending any of this fuckwits, but I don't know that it's much different than any organized religion. All of them are stories that get retold over and over until people a…

Have you met the current congress? They have to care first.

I'll ELI5: Compilers take the code the programmer writes, and turns it into things called object files. Object files are close to executable by the target processor, but not comple…

I worked at FB for almost 2 years. (I left as soon as I could, I knew it wasn't a good fit for me.) I had an Uber from the campus one day, and my driver, a twenty-something girl, w…

* Google is making almost 1B/day in revenue, or almost $5,500/employee/day. * CapEx is up over 60% YoY – they're spending a lot of money on GPU/TPUs.

Cross compiling is really defined as different platforms, not limiting it to instruction sets. Also, the M1 is an ARM, but the instruction sets aren't exactly the same.

Not all of those explode eventually, rather it's a small amount. Only the most massive stars explode into a supernova. The majority of stars are smaller, and will have different li…

I recreated that in grad school, also using QNX. We set it up to run a paging (POCSAG) system that you could put the floppy into any computer, hook up a DSP board and modulator, re…
