I was inspired by Youtuber Device Orchestra to try turning a sonic toothbrush into a synthesizer. I got it to work and have made a couple videos: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtBIAIUupbJChgrajTvapSQ

In case anyone cares I'm sending MIDI to an Arduino board which I programmed to handle the events using a MIDI library. I then convert the midi notes to a frequency which I pulse on two digital pins driving an H bridge, which I hook up directly to the coil on the brush.

Part of what's useful about science is that when you study obvious things, sometimes you get a counterintuitive result. This time it confirmed the obvious, but that's not always true.

Do you own Tesla stock?

From TFA:

> I wouldn't recommend using Airtable to store fast-moving data but as a means of storing strings, images, positions of views, and general data that won't get updated very often, Airtable could be a potential option for you.

It would have been so hard to predict Twitter.

Meet supports up to 100 participants. That would be pretty tough to do e2ee. Is there a service that can do that?

They might be in the wrong career if they don't want to read official documentation.

People who die from the virus usually infect many others before death. There isn't really any selection pressure for keeping the host alive.

I'd rather use your tool to decide where to go to lunch. I'd rather use OP's tool to decide which city to move to.

I'm curious what the percentage is right now.

At least it's not trafficly

For some reason this brought back memories of mIRC

How do you decide?

Spyro looked a lot better without the textures IMO

Do other spam filters actually check every incoming email against a database of outgoing emails?

The intended purpose was so innocent and naive.

Gotta get those clicks

I remember hearing this on the acquired.fm podcast as well. Not sure what their source was.

I used to spend hours on the hotline as a kid. It was really weird and entertaining.

Almost as useless as this comment.

No PC version though sadly.

Most *nix server and cloud nodes use bash for the shell. You're right about embedded systems but they're not usually the target platform for a config management system like this one or Ansible.

I’m surprised there’s no explanation of why Bash was chosen for this.

And performer. Also those aren't soprano recorders so they're less squeaky.

I made something similar using Hammerspoon on Mac. I make a list of tasks, one per line, with a time estimate. Hammerspoon will show the active task, the time elapsed, and the estimate on top of everything using canvas. It's helped me stay on task and be more realistic with my planning. If anyone is interested I can share.

Parent comment is talking about link utilization and you’re talking about transit fees. You’re on a different wavelength (pun intended)

Bandwidth is finite. Links can become congested.

What do wa state hacker parents have planned for their kids?

Sorry for the pedantry but traffic shaping (slowing down a class of traffic on purpose) is a standard qos technique

Nissan had a bit of a head start on Tesla.

I think you mean application protocols. There's only one TCP protocol. In the example of gRPC you'd have gRPC > http/2 > TCP > IP > ethernet

Yes load balancers can make decisions on application layer protocols like gRPC, but not in mode TCP which is what the parent comment was asking about. That's because that mode only looks at the TCP header and IP headers which don't contain any information about the application protocols.

An example of a time you might use this mode is if you're terminating TLS on the web servers, so you can't read the encrypted http headers when they hit the load balancer.
