I see Casa Loma in there now, but if that counts I'd expect something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boldt_Castle to also count

As others have mentioned, it's not actually that performant. The matrix solve is about as fast as a single threaded solution can do, but the problem is parallelizable. There are a number of GPU implementations and I have even heard of offloading the matrix solve to an FPGA, though without unified memory a lot of the gains are irrelevant.

Even if you avoid most of the numerical code initially, the interface in the original spice core is a mess of string handling and building a custom shell experience. There are tricks like setting the upper bit of every byte to 1 when inside quotes so that the custom shell history matching skips over things in quotes. Very elegant for the time, but now that means if you want nodes with non ascii names you're either keeping a mapping outside or using utf-7.

Another great example is the expression parsing. There was a long standing bug where the expression parser leaked ~160 bytes for every step of an output expression for every timestep. So for example, if you had "($2 * 4) + 1" as an expression and ran a simulation for 10,000 timesteps you'd leak 8M bytes.

The spice core that ngspice is built off is terrible code. It has a long history going back to 1970s era fortran. Starting fresh is probably preferable

Glasses is another place where the savings are astounding

Eng leadership pings seems to be one of the few strategies that's been working on the hiring side for finding great talent the last few months

Rinse aid is an interesting topic. There's some evidence that it causes damage to the gut. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36464527/

Not to mention, lots of places have time of use electricity pricing which makes it even worse. This is the problem with running my heatpump when its cold, some of the coldest times (right before dawn) coincide with peak time-of-use prices

Reminds me of when we used to drive past a Pinetree Line station every summer on the way to visit my grandparents.

Is this detecting people who work overnights?

I have a kobo. The firmware is absolutely terrible. Somehow it's gotten itself to a state where it doesn't detect books that are added to the device, even after fully reseting the hardware

This sounds like wire fraud ....

That number for w20 will probably change. For example, when https://youtu.be/2GgcIuQ4X5k?t=324 was produced w20 was predicted to be up 0.84% YoY.

the stubs can only do so much. There's so much magic and inferred properties that a type checker will never be able to fill in alone

maintainer of chartjs here.

It’s probably more performant. Chart.js isn’t designed for a ton of data and we recommend sampling before visualization . We have a builtin plugin that does a form of min/max sampling to retain peaks but cut down on the amount of data points drawn

Maybe this will work on the weekends, but in general V2X (or the older V2G ideas) are just a dumb concept. No driver wants to go out to their car and find that it has no charge because they didn't plan their trip ahead of time. The value of a vehicle is that you can use it whenever it's needed

What otel really needs to succeed, at least in the python space, is something as easy and straightforward as DataDog's ddtrace command.

Until you run your server behind something like gunicorn and all of the auto imports stop working and you have to do it all yourself.

Generally that's why the soft skills questions generally want a response in a STAR (situation, task, action, result) format. It's a lot harder to lie about a story and keep yourself consistent through a back and forth.

Government backed SSO is probably how this ends up. I suspect we get to it because it also solves the election influencing issues that western democracies are seeing

I assume you don’t have kids because as the parent of a toddler this is a terrible idea. The last thing a toddler needs is AI hallucinations “teaching” them

factories just don't randomly retool on a tuesday

isn't that basically a given for any company when comparing numbers that have not been adjusted for inflation?

It would be perfect if the symbols I wanted were already built in. There are some electrical symbols but they're very much circuit design focused whereas I'm looking for symbols such as these https://www.edrawmax.com/templates/1011842/

Additionally, https://github.com/jgraph/drawio/issues/1660 would be a nice to have.

I haven't found anything ideal that's opensource. draw.io + some custom images for the electrical symbols lets me get good enough though

I have a similar problem, but for electrical diagrams. I want to draw out diagrams for each of the circuits in my house and none of the free options are good enough.

For me, "I want a hippopotamus for christmas" is even worse.

This kind of incident is a microcosm of everything that's going wrong in the western world

Time to switch my last machine that still uses Chrome as the default.

Agreed. There are a ton of edge cases and auto instrumentation basically doesn't work. I love Honeycomb but the setup for DataDog is 100x easier

I have experience using this back when I worked for a startup that did distribution grid optimization. The specs are unfortunately useless in practice because while the terminology is standardized the actual use of each object and how to relate them is not.

Thus, every tool makes CIM documents slightly differently and there are no guarantees that a document created in one tool will be usable in another
