Hi Fedi, Software and Electronic engineer looking for work here
I'm looking for work in Berlin, or Germany, or remote. I'm especially experienced in programming language/compiler front end design, and working with DSLs, as well as all the usual backend and database skills in high level languages. I can also do basic frontend work. I'm also especially passionate about electronic engineering, with a degree in the subject and a lot of hobby work, especially around low-EMI board layout and design for manufacture.
If this sounds like an opening you know of, or even if it doesn't quite fit but you think you have an interesting opening, feel free to message me!
@kimapr@ublog.kimapr.net its a bit different. IDK much about the details. Years ago I used openhttpd with squirrelmail or something using fastcgi and it always worked fine and quickly.
@brettm it’s pretty different. with CGI the web server runs a program, sets env vars for it, pipes the request body into it, sends its stdout as the response, then the program’s life is over. with FastCGI a similar protocol is simulated, but the web server doesn’t run programs, it instead talks with a persistent FastCGI application server over a socket and goes like “hey server new request here is env vars here is stdin run the thingy and gimme stdout” and the fcgi server acts like it runs a program as requested and sends its stdout. The “Fast” of FastCGI is obtained from the fact that the fcgi server doesn’t actually need to exec a real executable and can be specialized for an application’s needs; php-fpm for example doesn’t need to run the php interpreter from scratch and parse and compile the php code every time, it can instead initialize it once and cache the compiled bytecode across requests, saving time
Some web servers like nginx support FastCGI but not CGI; it shouldn’t be difficult to make a fastcgi server that translates it to normal cgi, but having to run a fcgi server in addition to the web server might be a slight inconvenience

I think AVC1 is another word for H.264. That's the oldest one with lots of hardware acceleration available in old devices and by far the biggest one in file size. VP9 should roughly be on a similar level with H.265. The main difference is that VP9 is supposed to be royalty-free and H.265 isn't. The best one is of course AV1. But that also takes considerably more resources to encode and decode.

yeah, If those Israeli soldiers are "hostages" than so are the thousands of Palestinians in Israeli custody now, so if it's really to be "first the hostages" than all the Palestinian hostages (regardless of their legal statuses) & Israeli ones should be released. As soon as the Israeli hostage/detention facilities are beginning to be emptied in this exchange all Palestinian aid should be brought/let in with them.
He knows this line works on our racists. IMO we should still know how to refute it.
Thousands of non-combatants were held in Israeli torture facilities such as Sde Teiman. Their imprisonment was unlawful and a greater injustice. So Hamas took innocents, but Israel took many more. To demand one-sidedly they let go of their bargaining chip, shows Israel are again forcing their racism on the Palestinians, and that they kill random non-combatants when even some of them don't submit to it.
I just blocked and reported this (German) guy who argued the same way:
"Palestinians are starting war after war since 80 years and are constantly loosing the wars they started. Maybe, since they 'keep running against a wall' since 80 years, they should just accept what Israel 'offers' them. Also, it's their own fault if they're genocided, since they won't release the hostages."

I think I would switch to a simple laser pointer with perhaps a pinhole in front of it to narrow the beam, and I would make the eye stationary and move the laser instead.
This has the additional benefit of measuring angle, which makes it equivalent to an autocollimator - but it's actually better because it becomes more precise the further you place the eye from the emitter.
He says it has a 3 micron pixel size, and if we just assume that's the resolution, then putting the sensor 2 meters from the emitter will give you 1/3 of 1 arc-second graduation. Putting it 4 meters away will give 1/6th of an arc-second. Putting it behind a rifle scope or telescope would result in an insane amount of angular precision, more than you can ever hope to actually make a part to.
Because of how image sensor technology has progressed, we can use that as the basis of a highly accurate measurement device. This tool works by reading the l...
It strikes me that you can make very high quality surfaces using only a low fidelity CNC router and a high precision flatness measuring technique.
What you do first is modify the CNC router so that it is able to spring on the Z axis, so that Z position in fact corresponds to downforce.
Then you need to derive a surface height map, and put that into an algorithm which can output a polishing tool path. The correct amount of downforce and time for removing a specific number of microns must be determined, for the tool, grit, and material.
But with that information known, you can put the map of high spots into a tool path plotting algorithm and it should give you a tool path that is believed will knock down the high spots.
Assuming the algorithm does actually remove the high spots and doesn't just make the problem worse, you can zero in on the goal by switching to more and more gentle polishing tools.
When you're down to nanometer scale diamond grit on a fuzzy pad making a mirror finish, you've basically gone as far as you can go.
You probably need to build a small random-orbital tool for the router because simple rotation does not do the right thing.
The real limitation on laser angle measurement is dynamic range. If you put a 10x scope in front of a camera with a 5mm wide optical receiver, that's the equivalent of now having an 0.5mm wide optical receiver. But you only need 1 meter of distance for better than 1/10th of 1 arc-second graduations, which is very good.
Arc-seconds are small, about 5 microns per meter. If you had a mile long wrench and you pushed the far end of it by about 3/8ths of an inch, that will rotate the bolt 1 arc-second.
To aid in alignment, there can be a cover over the aperture with a hole the size and shape of the aperture itself, so that if the laser is missing the target, it is obvious whether it's missing left, right, high, or low.
Also 1/2 mm is a really small aperture, so you would think the laser also needs to be a 1/2 mm beam, but that's not how lenses work. The lens takes every ray of light with the same *angle* and directs it to the same point on the receiver, so the laser only needs to emit *parallel* light rays, it doesn't need to emit a point. Industrial lasers with adjustable focus are like 5$ online.
Putting a cover over the lens will still work because the lens tells the camera sensor exactly what *angle* the light comes from even if it's only catching 10% of it. In addition, it can help keep stray light out of the camera, and avoid the laser light from washing it out.
Minor errors in focus are a blessing in disguise because they spread the light over more pixels which gives you more confidence when you solve for the where is the center of the light.
In order to establish that a surface is flat, you need 2 optical receivers at a right angle from each other. In theory you could setup one and then move it, but it's not worth it to not be able to come back to your measurements because you dislocated the receiver.
To realistically set something up for measurement, the receivers need to be able to be adjusted up and down, but this does not require precision in any way, and it's just meant to bring them close enough that the laser hits the aperture, then they can be locked in place.
The measurement process would begin by leveling up the workpiece by eye, then verifying that the X receiver can pick up the laser at the 4 corners of the work - or at least 3 of them (in case of a very high corner). Then, without moving the part, you adjust the Y receiver until it can pick up the 4, or at least 3 corners that the X can pick up. Then you just start working over the part, collecting points and angular deviation which can be resolved into a height map.
Putting a "normal" camera above the workspace can help because then the computer can know where on the work you measured when you got a specific measurement, no need to manually record the results...
No deja de resultarme tremendamente irónico (aunque no por ello menos previsible) que buena parte de quienes han convertido el TESCREAL en una nueva religión con su infierno, su paraíso, sus profetas y su escatología proceda del moviemiento ese del New Atheism muy ateo y muy racionalista (y que cosas, muy de extrema derecha en cuanto rascas un poco).
Tampoco es casualidad que la mayoría de quienes abanderan ese movimiento como una religión sean todos GenX o millennials geriátricos, que ya Douglas Coupland explicó en su momento el porqué en "La vida después de Dios".

@proyectouna hay algún texto sencillo en castellano sobre el tema? Tuve unos amigos de visita el otro día, en una librería vimos un libro, Fascist Yoga, y una amiga y yo vimos muy clara la relación pero el otro del grupo no, y la verdad es que no supimos explicar mucho más allá de que las soluciones individualistas acaban ahí, pero me gustaría poder mandarle algo (perdón si me estoy entrometiendo pero sabéis ambas muchas cosas)

Our governments have failed us, we are the only ones who can help. Your donations go directly to keeping families like Aseel’s alive as they struggle to survive Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people.
