I’m a robotics researcher. My interests include cybersecurity, repeatable & reproducible research, as well as open source robotics and rust programing.

I was thinking of cross posting this to a Fortran community, but it looks like we don’t yet have one.

That was really cool and got me inspired! Thanks for cross posting.

Pain… This too painful to be posted as just a meme…

Perhaps, is there an engineering meme community I could cross post this to?

Any details on your setup?

  1. Do you use any ventilation to circulate the heated air through home?
  • E.g. do you place them in the basement and rely on raising connection l convention of heat, or dispersed around your living spaces?
  1. What scale of computing hardware do you host?
  • Retired server racks into a home lab?
  1. What grade of insulation is your home, the scale of the household?
  • built for what kind of winter climate zone in your geography?

Thanks!

Private Eye - essential for staying online 24/7

What was that device, an early cellular modem or 802.11 wireless bridge? The thing ontop of the briefcase looks like a head visor with an antenna. Google search keywords are just noise.

I don’t know of many recorded audio books, but you could also use a Text to Speech engine to listen to any technical blogs or articles. I use Android apps like Pocket or T2S to queue up a backlog of TODO read items, then when I’m out for a long walk, I can just press play and let the TTS do it’s thing. Of course, I curate this list for longer pure text reads, devoid of code snippets, equations, or visual graphics that TTS would have a tough time conveying over audio.

Looks like I may need to find a successor to pocket. They do a great job scraping connect via readable mode, but I’d like to find a shelf hosted or mobile+offline app equivalent for queuing up web articles, just in case pocket gets cut from further development by Mozilla management.

Guess the author’s click bait’y title was too much. I’ll withdraw their video then.
