@Bhavbhavbhav Sorry you had to go through all that. Sounds awful. I’m glad you got the help you needed but it’s terrible that it took that long.

Alright, here's my story. I got sick. The tl;dr is that my gallbladder was not functioning like it should have and needed to be removed, but it took three years for doctors to believe me, three and a half to get proper imaging, and four to actually have it removed. More below. 🧵

@MikeLewis @TheFederman GaN FETs are $$$. Easily >5$ per power transistor. The exotic materials sure are neat though. Maybe someday it’ll be a commodity part.

Best USB outlet I’ve tried so far. I like the 1 USB A instead of 2 Cs. (Topgreener makes this one and from what I can tell it’s the first & only GaN USB outlet)

@TheFederman I was not allowed a graphing calculator on any test in high school or university. Got pretty good with a scientific calculator.

if i was making a chip, and it had a bit called "INTERRUPTS_ENABLE", what do you think it would do? the data sheet says "Enable interrupts".

also, note the routing of INT2_ON_INT1 *also* not applying to *all* of the bits on INT2. i know, it's duplicated, but it's still unexpected behaviour based on the datasheet.

it's not for enabling/disabling all interrupts. it's for enabling/disabling *some* interrupts. where would this information be? not in the datasheet like it should be. it's in an *app note*. wtf is this nonsense, @ST_World? it's the lis2dw12 accel.

@nikosthirsty I think I’ve seen Kit Kat at 16th and V before. There’s a bunch of window cats between 24th st and 26th st on San Jose ave. Im always on the watch for em.

@nikosthirsty When I walked to work, I would actively pick the routes that had the most window cats. Not the same as a bodega cat, but it still made the walk a little better.

@cnvandev “I dont like whole turkey because its too big so half the meat is dried out by the time it is fully cooked. We can blame the factory farms for only producing obese birds that dont taste very good in general. If we had birds that havent been forced fed it would be a better meat.”
