Nvidia already did something similar with Lite Hash Rate (LHR), limiting performance on purpose just when running mining apps...

I know, but part of the logic from below the line I linked could have been deterministic, it could benefit from a single "load skill" tool that just loads the files client side!

Yes you can, see https://neslcdmod.com/

It basically mods the rom to allow for a bit more latency when checking the hit targets

Wow, this part where they describe skills sounds quite odd https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/99f47d6e9a3546c14c43af9...

Why wouldnt they just expose the files directly? Having the model ask for them as regular files sounds a bit odd

The bad part is that it cannot create a world wide mesh, as has a low max hop limit (7), and the nodes need lines of sight. So more than 200 km in a mostly flat city is almost imposible.

I wish we had an HF ISM band that could be used for this purposes without needing a license, combined with LoRa radios would yield great results

Something like https://github.com/huggingface/smolagents

Needs a sandbox, otherwise blindly executing generated code is not acceptable

Hmm, it's a clever hack, but they would use an oscilloscope with an "External trigger" input, like most of the older Rigols. That would let you use the full sample rate without needing to trigger from CH2

I agree, this can also detect brittle tests (e.g, test methods/classes that only pass if executed in a particular order). But applying it for all data could be expensive computation-wise

Indeed, if you search for "ceramic antennas" you'll see that they are already being used and smaller than equivalent PCB antennas. They rely on a dielectric material with high e_r, which implies that speed of light is slower there. Lots of portable devices use them nowadays!

Not really. The username from the commits is the same one that created the PR. The username evildojo666 was available and the attacker just used it.

Yes, in the games category you can find some. But for playing the classic fully fledged games I suggest something like https://flashpointarchive.org/ , which is more organized

I wonder if it's feasible to make diy Thermal paper using lemon juice, like the old "invisible ink experiment"

Update: The support team was able to remigrate all of the cards :D so issue solved. Thanks for the support!

Interesting idea, but keep in mind that older laser-based barcode readers don't work when reading from an LCD screen

Fair enough, if it supports being charged using any port that is reasonable. I would assume that the notebook has some other internal 5v regulator, maybe for the embedded controller or some other legacy device

I don't get the point of designing and building a 3.3 to 5v booster instead of just wiring a cable to one of the existing USB C vbus 5v pins? Am I missing something?

If the symbol frequency is known beforehand and fixed for all messages, it's not really i.i.d, as each distribution depends on the previous symbols.

No-name phones end up using chipsets/radios from varios manufacturers: unisoc, broadcom, mediatek, rockchip, ...

They can just grab a reference schematic and pcb and tune it a bit and get it manufactured. They all use mostly the same interfaces and protocols, like mipi dsi for lcds, so they can have many almost drop-in alternatives to choose depending on availability.

For printheads, it's likely that there are no common standards, each manufacturer has it's own head-cartridge interface, so it's probably more expensive to remain open to changes, reducing the potential profits

Too bad it's still a closed-source dominated industry :( There's not even any low level documentation of their programming bitstreams

With the difference that it keeps the font monospaced (in average), and usually kerning doesnt change shapes

Excelent game. Odd that no one mentioned Uplink OS, it's a graphic mod that makes it support higher resolution and has various qol improvements: https://www.moddb.com/mods/uplink-os It does lose a bit of the 90s aestethics though

Then you implement auto crossover detection, dwhich had been around for years

Mdi-x/auto crossover for ethernet was introduced in 1999, that is after USB (1996) was designed, not sure of the technique was known at that time

Argentinian here. Article has some flaws that could cause a different perception of the situation:

- The income tax isn't really "eliminated", that's not right, it just has a higher starting point and is now indexed to the monthly wage. Otherwise it required yearly updates that were quite messy. It starts to apply to gross salaries above 15x the minimum monthly wage (the starting point used to be WAY lower).

- 1.7 million pesos isn't really 5k USD, as no one has access to that exchange rate. It's more like 1800~2000 USD monthly.

Overall I think it's a good measure, but it still doesn't tackle the elephant(s) in the room: Having >40% poverty, having an unrealistic exchange rate, low minimum wage, informal economy and workers, problems renting/buying real-state, unsatisfactory education results...

It's just a grounding issue, just that you feel the 50/60hz and your skin detects it as a weird texture/vibration.

I think the periodic electric impulses may be interpreted by your brain as a fake stick-slip phenomenon and change how the texture feels.

See: https://superuser.com/questions/462244/electric-shock-mild-v...

It's not. They don't even release full schematics of boards.

We tried to use it to improve AWS lambda startup times but desisted as it was a pain to use it with an existing app. It required too many tweaks as there are waay too many things that rely on reflection :(

Things that broke include: JSON (de)serialization using Jackson, validations using hibernate, validator, AWS SDK, and even simpler libs like picocli...

It could be quite useful for a set of simpler apps though

Hmm, how can you post a form without js and not require sending and loading the full page from the server? I don't think there a way to do a partial form submission? An iframe could work but it's really messy and likely slow?

There's one weird thing that I've noticed with Daft Punk's The Brainwasher, my brain has two different interpretations for the main loop offset:

If starting here, I hear a loop that starts with fast notes and then has a silence. (warning: loud) https://youtu.be/RdVEQbWjaTE?t=91

If starting a few seconds earlier, the previous melody seems to fuse with the part that starts at 1:30, and it sounds different, like a bit slower. (warning: loud) https://youtu.be/RdVEQbWjaTE?t=80

Not sure if that makes sense, hopefully some one else also hears both versions! I'm assuming it may have to do with interpreting the last note of the loop as part of the next one, but it could be something else too. It really is a brainwash :P
