Join the cult of embedded engineers! My current project at work uses a cortex m0, so we have 32kB of code ROM and 4kB of RAM. It's really satisfying finding little optimizations to save a couple dozen bytes here or there, and there's never the pressure to just slap together code without worrying about size or speed since you can't afford it with the hardware you're using

Dumb question: did you remember to plug the battery connector back in? Or maybe you damaged that connector? That would explain if it only works when connected to power

It probably falls into the "costs a shit ton" but some people recommend the fellow carter mug. I've never tried it myself, but apparently ceramic-coated insides are best for not affecting the taste of coffee. I think I also saw some kind of ceramic-coated travel mug at Starbucks too? Can't speak for how spill-proof either of those things are though

Not sure if it automatically changes Facebook links, but the Facebook container extension is good at removing other tracking that Facebook does through news sites and such

Ooh, would be an interesting concept to have a folding phone with a physical keyboard+smaller screen for the outer display, as opposed to making the outer screen a normally-sized phone screen

I mean, it's pretty scummy but "working with" could refer to just being in communications with those charities about what a potential donation would be used for. Given what Jirard has said, I assume he was completely negligent about checking in on any of the foundation's activities, and was probably just handed a paper with the names of "partners" on it for the stream. That said, I feel like the quotes about being a "major" or "main" partner with some specific organizations could get them into trouble, even if it's legal for them to hold the money that long and they pass IRS audits

I would love to see an actual lawyer's take on this. Jirard's response is basically "we mislead everyone and were shitty for not donating before now, but it was perfectly legal for us to hold the money until now, and it was also legal for us to use donations for operating expenses of the foundation/events". While Karl presents a lot of evidence of misleading statements by Jirard, his usage of the encyclopedia brittanica to define charity fraud instead of any actual legal definition, and presentation of evidence as more damning than it actually is (and in a very hostile manner) leads me to view both sides in a negative light. At this point, I have no idea whether either side has any legal grounds for the accusations made toward the other, and I don't see that changing unless someone with actual legal knowledge weighs in

This research is apparently showing different damage than what was thought from previous experiments. The previous theories would suggest minor hearing loss, but these researchers found many cases where affected people performed normally on hearing tests, indicating hidden nerve damage and a different mechanism causing the phantom sound

Yeah, very likely a mix of tones. For me it's primarily 13.9kHz, but occasionally a much lower tone in just my right ear

My wife and I ended up having a girl, but the names we were thinking of if we had a boy were Apollo or Layton. Those probably don't need your criteria, but just throwing it out there!

The university replaced the rocks with trees? Paint the trees instead!

True, but people who used to be served one ad per video are now being served 4 or 5, which both lessens the value of each individual ad, and gives more incentive to get rid of them with premium
