I’ve wondered about a temporal trend. My feeling is that it has gotten more negative over the last 10 years. Could the OP run the analysis for each year and see if there are trends?
I’m building A2Fusion [1], a dual RP2350 expansion board for the Apple II to provide, storage, hdmi video and other functions in one card. The PoC is currently a big mess of wires. Waiting on JLCPCB for first prototype boards.
Assuming that you're in the US, what's been your experience with JLCPCB recently re:the tariff situation?
I'm getting ready to have a couple prototypes made soon and trying to decide between getting boards made at OSHPark and hand-stuffing/reflowing myself or having JLCPCB do all of it.
Timing seems to be about the same (but just in production now). But tariffs/taxes were 55% of merchandise cost. DHL is expensive too, $52 for 10 boards (shipping to Cali). I haven’t used OSHPark.
Bill/MS acquired Connectix’s virtualization technology [1] in 2003. VirtualPC and Virtual Server went on to become Hyper-V and power Azure to this day. VPC was released in 1997 and VMW founded in 1998.
No, just a student on winter break who got curious why CA Fire's map wasn't showing the up-to-date extent of the Eaton fire. Do they have this kind of heat data?
They integrate a number of sources. Satellite, cameras, weather, CalFire, etc. Check out their app, it’s free. They are a non-profit Startup, which is an interesting approach.
I took photos every few minutes for about a year. I wrote some custom code to pick out a set of frames from several consecutive days, but with the sun at the same angle in the sky. I then blended these frames together. This makes a ghostly look, without the bright flashes of cloud passing or weather changing. As I moved forward in time, I selected frames from the next angle in the sky, so it looks like only a day passes. You’ll see the shadows move as if a day passes, when really a year goes by.
Very cool! We tried to do the same thing with a series of photos taken along the solar eclipse, but didn't have enough density or consistency to make it compelling.
Mark Russinovich gives a good talk most years on the internals of Azure and the systems that run it. [1] is an example. Look for talks from other years as well.
Meta also publishes a number of papers/blogs/OSS projects on their engineering site [2]
James Hamilton of AWS gives a talk most years on their infrastructure. Worth watching multiple years [3].
