Probably the scale and usability of things. It's different if you're controlling 100 LEDs vs 5,000.

10+ years experience building web apps and services, computer is my hobby. Currently an engineering manager that still codes and work with PMs. My current job consists of talking with PMs, sorting out initial requirements and leading the team through thorough feature refinement process, also discussing with operations team to lay out plans for new features.

Looking for a change since my current company got acquired, and I've been in this role for quite a while now. Hoping to work on something meaningful, to myself or the community.

This exactly scenario is why our company is so afraid to put AI into production without the results being completely clear that it could be wrong. But if there’s even a chance that it could be wrong, why are we offering it to the user? How much due diligence does the user need to do? Does the benefits outweigh the cons?

That sounds more like Alibaba, where it operates like a B2B type transaction. In my experience, just talk to them, sure it might take more time but you can usually get a good price if you’re buying higher quantities.

USB! I’ve tried and failed couple times in understanding how USB works under the hood, from electrical, to protocol, then classes, and also Power Delivery. This time around things seem to make more sense now. It started out as an ambitious goal to emulate an FTDI USB DMX converter with the ESP32-S2/S3, but realizing that might be too big a goal, so I’m starting small. I want to be able to make a custom device class on the ESP32, and write a driver with libusb.

Basically embed a layer of transparent text to the PDF that's invisible to humans but visible to whatever PDF parsing software which will only get processed by LLMs

They only need the server's public key to encrypt it client side. But if all you want is to see if they're spying on you, you could go one step above and see if they're calling system APIs to your mic/camera/keyboard, instead of observing the network activities.

I never find the speed and acceleration of the Apple Trackpads slow. Out of curiosity, how are you moving your fingers when you want the mouse to travel long distances? What I do is repetitions of the movement on same area of the trackpad , e.g. my finger never drags more than two inches of the surface. I also have tap to click disabled, and use my middle finger to move, thumb to do left click, and middle + ring finger for right click.

Not sure if it's possible to be honest, it might be if you can sit down with a pen a paper. But again we've seen human perform seemingly impossible tasks before, so who knows.

My only gripe with these quick answers or excerpts is sometimes it doesn’t fully give the context. After it’s given me couple wrong results I stop trusting it and always read the source. If I were to read the source might as well click into the website and read the whole thing.
