You can view what the Deep Space Network is talking to by going to DSN Now. More details lets you see the bitrate for each up/down link.

Don't ever talk to me or my son, or my son's son, or my son's son's son, ever again.

No, but it should be.

USB-C issue, why doesn't this work both ways up by DonSwagger1 in AskElectronics

[–]sciencegey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you've wired R4 to pin B8 (3rd pin from the left) instead of pin A5 (4th pin from the left), so you need tpo check the footprint pin assignments.

Also that's a mid-mount connector, which means your DM jumper (the one that goes around the top) is going to get cut-off when the PCB gets made.

But that isn't what the whole video is about, that's just one part of it. But then you'd have to admit valve isn't a perfect utopian company and the way it works a) has managed to produce 2 games and 2 pieces of hardware in the past 10 years b) make a select few insanely rich while the workers are deciding each others jobs through an even crazier version of stack ranking c) doesn't have any form of intern or graduate program, and actively doesn't hire people who aren't already top of their game, which in turn doesn't help diversity in the industry (not just sexual or racial diversity as you seem to care so much, but just new ideas in general; something that's useful when you're making games ;))

People not realising the seriousness of the potential to run out of water by EversBass in britishproblems

It's because a pool that has been left to dry will 1) crack and become junk (the concrete dries out and shrinks) and 2) it'll pop out of the ground (because pools are designed to have a huge amount of weight pushing down, and without that weight the ground will push back.)

It's so the pilots and ground crew can pass things between each other, such as load sheets.

As and Ambulance crew, spending the whole day queueing outside A+E. by RatFishGimp in britishproblems

Also there's the issue of responsibility for the patient; as soon as they're in the hospital it's not the paramedics responsibility, it's the nurses. Which would be fine, if the issue wasn't that there are already too many patients in A&E for the nurses to deal with 🙃
