> An FPGA, by contrast, defines data pathways specifying how signals change on each clock tick based on internal states and external inputs. In essence, we describe global per-clock-cycle behavior rather than an individual act of data manipulation per step.

I think that’s the clearest explanation of FPGAs I’ve ever seen.

What are your best local models, and what hardware do you run them on?

It says 12-15 hours of recording in the article.


I really don’t want to wear a battery in that form factor.

Sure a phone or watch can burst into flames, but at least you’ve got a chance of dropping it or taking it off.

I also don’t see the bother of talking to your wrist rather than your hand.


Does Starlink have a temporary or “pay as you go” option?


Not anymore. You need a $5/mo charge to keep your account hot.


They still give you 500kbps of speed, which is enough for checking emails, voice calls, navigation, music streaming, etc.


That's pretty reasonable.


Historically Starlink roam let you pause/suspend the service and restart it when you need-

In August they changed their plans so you’d need to cancel and re-subscribe.


I didn’t know they’d added an alternative kernel. The CGAL one used arbitrary precision which massively slowed it down.

Also, fillets are made using the Minkowski operation, which is super slow.


They added it in the dev branch. There hasn't been a stable release since 2021 and there has been a lot of ongoing development in the meantime, many people use the development release since it's significantly faster.


Where, out of interest?


If that’s Octopus Intelligent Go, then it will also give you the 7p rate outside the normal nighttime slot if the car is charging and their algo calculates they can do it.


The one you linked looks ugly. Horrible seams, odd and too-long red buttons, unaligned slots.


On the contrary, I think you’ve done a fantastic job with the enclosure. Far from looking “half melted”, you’ve made good use of the bed texture, and the design is top notch.
