Hell yeah brother, this sounds like a fantastic project with a lot of room to dig into fun things with the double extra bonus of other people having fun with the result. Now you have me shopping for a bowling alley :D

This reads more like The Netherlands hopes to bribe US researchers into moving to the Netherlands.

Doubtful. The problem with the pi idea is that you need to include the offset, which will likely be as long as or longer than your data.

It also makes authentication Not Your Problem. Getting someone else to handle password resets alone seems worth the squeeze.

I know nothing of what is happening here but Broadcom has a lot of IP in high speed/low latency data transfer from chip to datacenter scales.

What does that have to do with investment? OP didn't say "don't integrate American tech company products into your workflow".

Say what one will about the current state of America, it's still a solid place to dump money in hopes of returns.

Kinda, NVME devices still need to be on their HCL and are priced about what you would expect.

Developing a functional app that meets your needs with an LLM takes it's own kind of skill, and is substantially more difficult if you can't recognize when the machine is steering your architecture in the wrong direction. It takes actual, real work. It's certainly a completely different kind of work than writing most of the code yourself, but so is using Java when compared to hand writing x86 opcodes.

Prompting an LLM to produce good code isn't a lot of work for you. Writing hex without an assembler or compiler would be a lot of work for you.

People have ideas, and now they have better tools to turn those ideas into reality. They aren't doing it like you would do it, but they're getting it done all the same, getting their needs met, and enjoying the ride.

Maybe just let people have fun, and when they report that they are in fact having fun... believe them.

What sense of pride an accomplishment do you get from using a library, or a high level language? You didn't write that code, you didn't hand translate into processor opcodes, etc. There are a million man hours of other people's work involved in making a simple python script run.

Given that any coding effort relies heavily on a much greater amount of work as a prior than the code you yourself are writing... Why do you feel accomplishment?

Making things is fun, using tools to make things can continue to be fun. I have fun woodworking with hand tools and I also enjoy using my CNC where the job permits. Both bring joy.

Later in its life, the Dreamcast release the "broadband adapter", a 100mbit Ethernet replacement for the modem. Worked great, but very limited support in games. That plus a DC keyboard and mouse made me BRUTAL in quake 3... until someone worked out how to join DC games from the PC.

Gmail, Docs/Drive/etc, Google Calendar

MS is the overwhelming favorite in each of these markets if you only consider paying users.

The key word here is "information". No known quantum effect results in information being transferred faster than the speed of light (which might be more correctly known these days as a the speed limit of information). Entanglement, even at great distance, does not violate this principle as that cannot be effectively used to transfer information.

No quantum process currently known allows for information transfer faster than the speed of light.

Flux.ai offers a PCB design solution which is a clear interest for Adafruit. Anyone have any idea what this is about?

What's frustrating is that Prusa isn't too far removed from how Bambu works today. Prusa-Link (the onboard firmware) allows you to do very basic job control but has essentially zero machine control and very little telemetry. All the major functionality is behind their PrusaConnect cloud service, which they've now added a paid tier to, and which they've been promising for years to open source in order to allow print farms to run offline.

I love Prusa printers and all my machines are Prusa, but they really do need to get their software situation sorted because in it's current form, it's somewhat hard to distinguish from the operational reality of Bambu - if I want to use all the features on my XL, I need to send my files to Czechia first.

It's also completely blocked for me, thanks for a link I can actually read!

Because way more than three out of five Google results are SEO garbage or sponsored crap. The bar has been set extremely low by Google, a 60% validity rate sounds magical.

Core1, add an INDX if you want multi tool (far more flexible and less waste than the AMS).

That'd be extortion, not blackmail. CF did neither thing.

Different, this would be a "field engineer", which is pretty common for supporting customers which might have a lot of technical needs around your product. For example, some microcontroller vendors are pretty famous for having poor or non-existent documentation and instead rely on the dude on-site to tell your engineers how everything works.

Here's a chart of the top 10 professions per 100,000 FTE (basically, per capita): https://www.bls.gov/charts/census-of-fatal-occupational-inju...

Police aren't in the top 10 of most dangerous professions in the USA[1], and when they are injured, it's overwhelmingly the result of traffic accidents.

It falls on its face as soon as they offer to sell that data to someone else, which is exactly what they're doing. Can't have it both ways.

The example they give in TFA is having the user scan a QR code, presumably from a mobile device.

And also great reasons for Bun to port themselves elsewhere. If they aren’t allowed to contribute to Zig, there’s very little reason to select Zig moving forward.

How does any of that impact a user who just has a specific task they want to accomplish and who doesn't have a CS degree?

Is it "their" software? Sure, if it meets their needs. What if the AI changes? Who cares, I already have the software. All the what ifs are solved by taking the current code, stuffing into into any AI you like today, and getting the new version.

As a user, this all sounds like a great deal. Devs can continue wringing their hands over code quality and long term support and architecture and preferred framework, meanwhile the user who had an itch got it scratched and didn't need nor care about any of those things.

There are a handful of dedicated devices that will read the eMarker, eg https://www.amazon.com/s?k=USB+emarker

A recent HN thread announcing a Mac app that can read them along with discussion on alternatives: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47972511

Most USB C cables do have a label, but it's an electronic one. Desktop and mobile OSes could do a better job of surfacing this information for the user.

Noctua is awesome in a lot of ways, one of them is offering full CAD models: https://www.noctua.at/en/3d-cad-models

etsy, mostly for lack of a better option and a lack of desire to self host, deal with taxes, etc.
