That table image is... horribly honest? I'm a bit shocked they used it in a blog post. It's really, really bad

I've been doing some analog PCB layouts for the first time recently, it's the one thing I wish there were better resources on (going from schematic to layout). Even the best YouTube vids are mostly simple digital stuff with very few components.

Nice work! Perhaps this could interest users of norns[1], many of which are active on the lines[2] message board.

Emby is close, it missed some video features last I checked but it may be good enough for you.
Re:Clap: The New Audio Plug-In Standard

While not perfect, I really liked Will Pirkle’s book[1]. It describes the popular ABIs and has great intro to DSP. I would say the downsides are that the description of various interfaces takes up too many pages and that the book uses his own framework ASPiK for cross-compatability, but it’s easy enough to convert to a more popular framework like JUCE if needed.

Can anyone link to or explain the problem? I'm in the market for a new display and didn't quite get the README explanation.
Re:Making our new homepage fast and performant

I'm using a Mid-2015 MacBook Pro and it's far from performant for me. Assuming it's mostly new users who see the homepage page, do they assume their new users have high-end computers?

Re:Facebook executives shut down efforts to make the site less divisive

It’s really not as sophisticated, but these guys[1] created an extension that in addition to their main objective of analyzing Facebook’s algorithm also offers a way to create your own Facebook feed. If I got it right, they analyze posts their users see, categorize them by topic and then let you create your own RSS feed with only the topics you want to see.
It’s not clear to me whether you may see posts collected by other users or only ones from your own feed and it seems highly experimental.

Yes, to some extent people should be worried about apps potentially containing exploits, but then again they should be more worried about 0-days than a known vulnerability.

Can anyone explain iOS “automatic” updates? They never seem to work for me.
Re:FAA Finds New Risk on 737 Max, Orders Boeing to Make Changes

I may not be interpreting this right, but does that imply they already have the planes, which will now stay in storage until 2025 waiting for all issues to be resolved?
If that's correct, aren't there possible risks for flying a plane that had such a long period of inactivity?

Hey, I think I finally understood and it seems worth checking out, but I couldn't find a description of what is it you actually do anywhere on the site. I think the homepage should include a quick description and example if you want to draw people's attention.

Were you (or anyone) able to change the brush size? (I'm pretty sure it used to be + on Windows, but it's been a while)

If this wasn't OP's intention, I deeply apologize. That was my understanding and I think it was m12k's too. I'm used to seeing civil discussion here and that's what made me dismissive of the original comment.

No, not all of us. I didn't read the comment just fine either. I assumed a person who uses irrelevant misogynist slurs may have a personal grudge against the person he's insulting, so I'm not going to take anything he says about her very seriously.
