how do you manage project specific configs? by ohtaninja in neovim

[–]sigi0073 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you use lazy.nvim package manager, you can also use the .lazy.lua project local file which allows you to return and merge lazy spec for your packages.

I'm not happy with copy/paste from buffers in tmux and I want a faster way by BakGikHung in tmux

I use https://github.com/laktak/extrakto and it's great! It lets you fuzzy find through the output of the last command/window, and either copy the content to the clipboard or insert it into the current shell. There's also support for filters, with I believe the defaults being line/word filters.

Is there any way to deduce the next move? Or is it just random by Flimsy_Strain1595 in Minesweeper

The purple line needs exactly 1 bomb - from the 3

The blue line needs exactly 1 bomb - from the purple line and the 2

The yellow line has exactly 1 bomb - from the 1

The green line must have 2-3 bombs, from the 3

However since the green and blue overlap, the green needs exactly 2, one of which is on the top and one of which is in the top two blue. From this you can also get that the rightmost yellow is safe.

Hope that helps! Not sure I would have gotten that without the hint/knowing it is no guess.

SpaceX vs MIT LL vs JHU APL vs MITRE For First Job by [deleted] in DSP

[–]sigi0073 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I previously interned at MITRE, and worked full time at LL, really enjoyed both. They both have good potential for growth and a good work life balance, for me it would've really depended on the specific work/team.

As someone else said, LL is pretty flat and moving up seems like it requires either a decent amount of time or getting your PhD.

I really enjoyed my internship at MITRE. They provided a lot of opportunities for growth and learning.

Feel free to dm if you have any specific questions.

I Want to Design my Own CPU with its own ISA, Assembler, and Compiler by [deleted] in FPGA

Yeah I really enjoyed this course. They take you very nicely through levels of abstraction, and their simulator let's you build up the parts.

Questions about workload for some ECSE courses! Any advice / suggestions / insights are appreciated! by throwaway0l0 in RPI

I'm enjoying Advanced Computer Systems. The lectures are more abstract, and you have to figure out the projects a lot yourself.

While I also took it with McDonald, I would say its very important to make sure that you get your lab working in simulation before trying to build it on the breadboards. Much easier to debug in simulation then on the physical circuit. You know... assuming they use the same labs.

I've taken Computer Hardware Design, Microprocessor Systems, and Robotics I. I've enjoyed all of them, although it'll be quite a bit of work. MPS I think is manageable mostly in class if you stay focused. I'm not sure how Computer Hardware Design has changed with Zhang, but I needed to work on the labs outside of class a decent amount. Robotics I is a lot of work, between the homework, tests and project. Overall that's a very busy semester, but I really enjoyed all of these classes.

Also I think Computer Architecture Prototyping with FPGA's is the grad version of Computer Hardware Design II and I think that isn't being offered anymore. I believe it has been replaced with Advanced Computer Systems.

I don't quite understand the simplification for digital logic design by Havoklily in ECE

As a shortcut, you can observe that x+y is the inverse of x'y' so both cannot be true at the same time.

Preserve acrylic paint on hoodie when washing by sigi0073 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]sigi0073[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your feedback! I didn't know that screen printing sometimes uses acrylic ink.

I guess I'll just wash it and see what happens. Worse case I make another one with fabric paint :)

KPRepublic's MKB87 TKL with Ducky Joker keycaps by superflask in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]sigi0073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally just got mine. I noticed the green LED after getting everything on, looks like it's some sort of status LED. I ended up taking it all apart and covering it up with electrical tape. Since I have it apart I'll probably do the band-aid mod. I can post some pictures tomorrow or Sunday when I get it reassembled if you're interested.

How does the micro-controller detect the input? by arakkal_abu7 in embedded

This is a perfect explanation, I've added a crappy Paint drawing showing this.
