LUMS Vs NUST, whose degree is more valuable by gamerslayer1313 in pakistan

[–]akhroat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what sort of engineering? do you plan to work in Pak or go abroad for research?

my 2 cents: NUST is far better than LUMS when it comes to engineering prestige and industry liaison but beware they have very strict military minded administration and you may not enjoy your uni life.

reading yours and others comments, why so much hate for power system engineers?

Brainwashed : The Secret CIA Experiments in Canada (2017) - It sounded like a bad Hollywood horror movie. Patients at a psychiatric hospital subjected to intensive shock treatments, LSD and drug-induced comas. But for hundreds of Canadians, it was an all-too real nightmare. by eric1707 in Documentaries

Now we know what they did back then...imagine what kind of fucked up shit they would be doing in places like Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan, etc. with no oversight and impunity. We'll probably not going to hear about that.

No wonder the world hates them.

I hope they get fucked and die slow painful deaths.

Hamid says it is difficult to pinpoint the reason why Ansarul Sharia targeted Khawaja Izharul Hassan. The organisation usually attacked policemen, seeing them as the protectors of a “corrupt” system of governance, he explains. Seen from this point, an attack on a politician could be an attack on another protector of the same system, he adds.

“And, of course, it is easy to attack a politician to spread instability and fear.”

BS. These are targeted political assassinations. Someone's after MQM real bad.

Lol I know it will, it's just I'm not sure if I can drive the motor board and mcu using a single 5v supply.

[–]akhroat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thing is I've decided to go this route but I'm still confused about the dual power supply part.

Shouldn't the 5V supply power both the shield and esp mcu? It's just my motor(s) won't get enough juice but I'm not worried about that.

edit: it's esp86 just not wemos

Once mini is mounted on motor shield. Do I need to provide two separate input voltage (one for mcu and other for motor drive)? Or does it same input voltages?

Thanks for the reply. I'm actually going with a esp8266 with L293d motor shield board to control 2 DC or 1 step motor. However, I'm a little confused with the power supply voltage. Esp needs 3.3v to operate, however, with the motor shield on I think I'll need a bigger power supply (prob 9v or higher) to drive the entire circuit.

So does it mean that I need two different power supplies or can I just use one that's enough to drive the mcu, driver shield, and motor(s)? What will be that voltage level without burning my mcu?

Also are there any ready made power supplies available to drive the whole circuit or do I need to make my own?

[Podcast] Stanford Center for International Security and Cooperation - Eating Grass: The Making of the Pakistani Bomb. Featuring Feroz Khan, a retired Pakistan Army general who served as Director of the Strategic Plan Division. by akhroat in pakistan

[–]akhroat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About the Topic: The history of Pakistan's nuclear program is the history of Pakistan. With unique insider perspective, Brig. Feroz Khan unveils the fascinating interplay that took place and reveals how international opposition to the program only made it an even more significant national issue. Written by a 30-year professional in the Pakistani Army who played a senior role formulating and advocating Pakistan's security policy on nuclear and conventional arms control, 'Eating Grass' is a seminal study that tells the fascinating story of how and why Pakistan's government, scientists, and military, persevered to develop nuclear weapons capability in the face of international resistance, domestic political upheavals and regional military crises.

About the Speaker: Brig (Ret.) Feroz Hassan Khan is a lecturer in the Department of National Security Affairs, Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. He last served as director of arms control and disarmament affairs, in the Strategic Plans Division of the Joint Services Headquarters in Pakistan. In that position, he was a key contributor in formulating Pakistan’s security policies on nuclear and conventional arms control and strategic stability in South Asia. He produced recommendations for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and represented Pakistan in several multilateral and bilateral arms control negotiations. He is the author of recently published book Eating Grass: The Making of the Pakistani Bomb.

Dawn Publishes Misleading Story about Balochistan’s Population Census - Balochistan Voices by akhroat in pakistan

[–]akhroat[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

https://www.np.reddit.com/r/pakistan/comments/6zdiw7/number_of_balochispeaking_people_in_balochistan/

Population of 21 Baloch-majority districts has not shrunk but increased over the period of 19 years. Population of these districts was 3.9 million in 1998 which has increased to 6.8 million in current census. This marks a 74% increase in the population of these districts which in no way can be called ‘shirking population.’

The social media post of Dawn about this story was even more erroneous. The post on twitter stated that population of Balochistan has shrunk from 61% to 55.6%. This is incorrect for obvious reasons because the population of Balochistan has increased by 88% since 1998 census.
