anyone care to pastebin a copy of the text?

I think that's solved now though, at least for a few ICs and toolchains, via things like MyHDL and/or rhea (tldr; Python wrappers) and websites like fpga4fun.com

Why don't these numbers ever list the width AND height AND length... I'd really like to know how many atoms each transistor was composed of.

doesn't the Willamette and Columbia river run along mountain range for a long while?

Is that really smaller than any of these??? https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=microfluidic%20qpcr

I use BRL-CAD for 3D modelling via Python ( https://github.com/nmz787/python-brlcad-tcl )... using it for the base CAD tool for my nano/MEMS fabrication pipeline

I wrote a tool like this for big high-performance test boards at work, the input was a spreadsheet, and I automatically generated (visual) schematics after assigning the netlist us…

Oh, by 'package' I meant heat-seal in plastic bags. 'Packaging' a silicon chip for electrical use should be pretty similar regardless of the production technique, given chemical co…

I do part time work packaging FIBbed gizmos, the 'machinist' has done at best a 50nm diameter aperture in metal film (from what I recall, maybe it was 100nm) using a beam diameter …

spectruino's ADC isn't fast enough to capture all the data from a CCD data frame, thus to get an entire spectrum one needs to sample multiple times and shift the ADC sample clock..…

Very good point, I would think before making a fancy case and adding useless colorful LED rings, you would try to prove the actual detection concept, which hasn't been shown by the…

That's exactly what expensive notch filters do.

"What happened to the FDA's mission to protect the consumer? Why aren't rice imports tested for heavy metals?" 'FDA spokesman Noah Bartolucci told BBC News that the "FDA plans to r…

I suffered through childhood lead poisoning and I'm still here on HN!

Seems like the smart thing would be pushing rendering to the client. This is already done in real-time for coarse and simple models like PDB.

Thanks for the kind words! The $800 price tag was just a kickstarter only price, since we were still largely in the development phase we weren't sure of final pricing. Now it looks…

I think daniel_reetz put it right with "good enough". This isn't a lab or scientific instrument. But its cheap enough to use as a teaching tool, to get people interested and in-the…

using a 2D sensor, you could actually just block one half of the slit at a time with your sample, and let the other half of the slit pass through unchanged... that way you could ge…

You want a "peaky" light source to build the spectral response model, xenon or deuterium flashbulbs are cheap on amazon... I would lean towards using deuterium because I think the …

The link at: http://www.iontorrent.com/career/ just re-directs me to the homepage.

As to your last comment, JCVI already did that, synthesis is lacking for speed and cost as compared to sequencing today.

current behemoth machines have errors too, often the best way to get a really polished sequence is to sequence on machines which have different type of errors, and interlace the da…

Different here. Bug found when I switch resolution... other cams keep playing rather than pausing... thus synchronicity is lost.

Hi all, this is my first post here... I hope its not considered off-topic. My friends and I are building a photospectrometer, and we're open-sourcing code, design files, and parts …

I'd also like to know the answer to this question. Also isn't openFrameworks supposeds to be more frame-worky than just a library (someone mentioned earlier simplecv aims to be mor…
