PALCEs were expected to last 10-20 years under normal conditions, unlike the mask ROM which is expected to last forever under normal conditions.

I read your posts but I'm only one other person. Both Twitter and here seem like a ghost town to me. I think a lot of people have just logged off

It's the best any one person can do! The real responsibility lies with them though.

Microsoft has published no analysis on the potentially unusually large impact on ewaste volume that dropping support for Windows 10 next week would have. It seems they aren't actively taking responsibility there but it's obvious to me in this case that they should.

None of my TVs growing up had discernible scan lines. I'm confused why that's such a popular upscaling filter. If I wanted a nostalgic filter, I would go for something that looks like this. Do filters like this exist?

The delta-sigma ADCs have a reputation of being the most advanced but once you know basic signal processing and control theory, they're actually relatively simple devices. So simple that you can even implement one in Falstad.

You've never heard a square wave.

The last three designs I attempted this with were basic MCU projects I thought 😭 Maybe I'm getting unlucky. E.g. I wanted a parallel 5V NOR Flash and this is what I get when I sort by stock. Just curious, is stock this low the norm when using their PCBA and my expectations are off?

Rian Hunter @cejetvole.bsky.social · Aug 16

Oh wow. Every time I've attempted to design a board around JLC's part library, they inevitably are out of stock of all the parts I would use and all their alternatives. Asking especially because I'm designing another a new board soon.

Rian Hunter @cejetvole.bsky.social · Aug 15

who do you use for PCBA if you don't mind me asking?

Rian Hunter @cejetvole.bsky.social · Aug 10

lol branding a cortex-m0 like that is wild

This is one of those little details on which much of Fourier analysis is based that is probably not understood by most people using it.

$\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} \!\!e^{i 2 \pi n x} = \sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty} \delta(t - k)$

It has happened. Little run of 15 custom carts completed. Next time I'll need to use stencil and an oven 😅 Sending out to all the album collaborators in the next few days. Thank you!
