This is how I use them- but I also use them to write initial UI's (usually very primitive). Because I've got an issue where the UI has to be perfect, and if I can blame somebody/something other than me I can ignore it until the UI becomes important enough.

Frequently not. It's always handy to know about extra techniques in soldering.

You can also scale this up in a solder oven and remove almost every single component. Used this for reversing a PCB a few times.

It's intentional- If people can't use the internet they're more likely to watch the "game." For once management might have learned something from employees- take a dive, cry foul.

How os this different than the US's SLAM design from the 50-60's. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersonic_Low_Altitude_Missil...

Obviously guidance will be different.

Not cheap.

Theres also services like this: https://www.septentrio.com/en/learn-more/insights/gnss-corre... that offer correction information.

I expect starlink to eat that industry shortly. Not sure how they'll make the strategic steps though. Mandatory location data for cell phones to talk with star-link? Wait for whatever satellite septentrio uses to EOL and offer a deal to use star-link instead?

while researching links to back up me calling this a nothing burger, I found this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=twqqak3XVuY which upgrades this to Puff Piece.

it gets worse- the overseeing professor mentioned here, and in the video, is the author of the paper linked in the description- from 2018. (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00190-018-1192-5)

See: https://www.u-blox.com/en/technologies/high-precision-positi... for information thats not one guy stroking his... ego.

Also, PPP-RTK is another keyword.

Melt the solder and thwack the board on something hard? So the board stops but the molten solder doesn't.

Sometimes though you just have to pile on solder and flux because the via is small enough that surface tension and heat dissipation means its never coming out

Look at (Monitorian)[https://github.com/emoacht/Monitorian] for that.

It's 2 or four pairs. So at minimum you have two 26awg (spec is 24awg, and the slim-line cables are labeled "data only") wires- which is not as big a deal as you made it out. Spec comes out to about an amp per pair.

Unfortunately, no- while atoms fusing has a fixed mass to energy conversion... getting them close enough that they'll fuse takes a lot of energy. The three hurdles to effective fusion are: 1) getting more energy from fusion than was spent making it happen 2) extracting the extra energy 3) (this never gets covered) avoid neutron flux turning the whole thing into radioactive scrap before it can pay for itself and storage.

National ignition facility (NIF) recently got exited about more energy out than they put in. They don't have a plan for #2 or #3- but as a research facility focusing on #1 thats OK.

Numerous tokamak designs try to handle #1 and #2, but handle #3 by putting rails into the reactor for robots to replace and repair things.

I'm very pessimistic about #3- nothing is immune to neutron damage from fusion, it's just engineering it to fail in a way thats useful. And, once the public accepts the problem, produces less nuclear waste than fission.

With most day to day things being some form of streaming it really hides how painfully slow gigabit is.

Additionally, it's not difficult to fit 10gigabit worth of data munging in a 10-15watt envelope.

Pulling data off of modern professional cameras is an easy example.

Realtek's latest NIC is 10/100/1000/2.5/5/10, has a <2w envelope and has offloading that works (unlike intel).

I converted my Hue Hub to PoE with a splitter. It's super convenient but not the prettiest.

Are you agreeing or disagreeing with it being trivial to check if theres fusion?

> However it's quite possible that I'm wrong. Because bubble science keeps on throwing new surprises.

Ultimately that's my assertion. No need for exaggerated/optimistic claims when something interesting turns up about it on a regular basis.

Sonoluminescence is not power positive. Fusion would be trivial to prove with a neutron detector- so saying "theres debate" is arguably dishonest.

Sonoluminescence is weird and awesome enough as is: cavitation that produces light.
