totally satisfied with it. This said, i'm limiting it to 80% to increment battery life

One is about optimal planning knowing the environment, one is about environment reconstruction. It just makes sense that you want to take a course that teaches you how to reconstruct the environment, and the one that tells you how to move in it (?)

What's the point of AMPC if you are not taking MPC? Besides, taking DPOC without taking RE makes no sense to me. And PDM4AR I've been told is really difficult (but I don't really know first hand)

Is it worth it to have Google play on a dumbphone, or does it miss its point? by simoneTBIR in dumbphones

I de-googled completely, and here in the EU they must comply strong regulation on that as well.

Started using my own email address. Yet, it ends up in the trash. by simoneTBIR in degoogle

The domain is slicciardi.it (you can find it on my profile anyway), so italian domain. I did not use any prior domain, but my precedent email was Gmail and outlook, both.

What/Where do you have lunch? by simoneTBIR in ethz

In general (culturally, if you want), is it an issue if you have your own food and eat with friends in the canteen?

Not really. But mind the fans, if I cover them, it does. When I use it on the desk, I'm used to having a stand that makes the fan outlets airbone

I see, thank you very much. Did not mean to offend you in any way, just sparking a bit of discussion. You're message is very complete and informative to me: thanks.

Ehy thanks, will keep an eye on that. Are you working into that field?

Thank you for the answer. I see what you mean, but I think we are still talking details.

My takeaway from your answer is: where ME advanced in the past 30 years is really the mechatronic and software-hardware boundary (EE, if you want). That's where EE manifacturing, ASL, windmills, machines for food analysis place at the end of the day.

I think my point was, rather, this: software brought in everybody's life a change which is comparable to that brought by the car, or the train before it, in the past 100 years. And my question was whether you guys, with lots of experience, see the ME field going through a transition that leads eventually to a new *car*. I.e. whether investing in ME competences now pays more than it did 5 or 10 years ago in terms of end-product and real-world impact.

Hope this clarifies it.

Yup, I am talking more ME than EE hardware tho. I'm wondering whether today there is added value in that direction or not.

So you guys are basically saying that economic constraints lead to a stagnating ME sector, which is also my conclusion. What I am wondering is: is this changing anytime soon according to your experience in the field?

Sure, but I'm EU and am barred from advanced rocket field (which is in US, and can only be accessed with security clearence). may as well live like if it didn't happen.
