This is why 4-20 mA is a common signaling standard in industrial automation. 4 mA means zero and 20 mA means one. 0 mA means broken transmitter !

Interesting. That makes sense, but what’s the reason for using current instead of voltage as the variable?
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Current flow is independent of wire length, the sender only has to turn up the voltage high enough to overcome the wire resistance.
What drama with the Factorio devs is he talking about at the end (and namesearchers?.. I don't get Twitter sometimes) I've never heard anyone say anything about the Factorio devs except praise their productivity and professionalism.
> "saying the name of the game uncensored is going to get namesearchers and I have a transflag in my name so guess what kind of response I'd immediately get?" I believe kovarex made some anti-trans statements once, and gamers in general are prone to making abuse pile-ons, so it's a mitigation against that.
Nah, publicly advertised for and defended some right-wing Youtuber. [0]

One dev said in one post that they like Uncle Bob. I think that’s it.
A lot of people have (understandably) lost patience with the "just asking questions" style of rhetoric, and don't appreciate others making excuses for it.

Wow, Factorio is approaching Full Time Job levels of detail and work required to keep everything running. Incredible game that I will never play, I feel I’m back at my job!
Tests that output booleans (pass/fail) are an antipattern. Tests and their dashboards must distinguish “the testing system worked and the test failed” from “the testing system failed”.
But there may be mistakes writing the tests (false success result). To check the tests, I break the implementation, then check that they fail.
