This is also a major base of French cuisine and called Mirepoix.

In Cajun food, bell peppers replace carrots: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_trinity_(cooking)

Fascinating to see that Mirepoix is such and old base that it was imported into the new continent and adapted with what was available locally!

I think a real value of AI in Engineering will be when it can act as a reviewer.

Reviewing drawings for incompleteness, contradictory informations, deviations from standards, etc and making recommendations would be very valuable.

It doesn’t need to be perfect to be useful.

Not sure why it would invoke such strong sentiments but if you don’t like the bayer filter, know that some true monochrome cameras don’t use it and make every sensor pixel available to the final image.

For instance, the Leica M series have specific monochrome versions with huge resolutions and better monochrome rendering.

You can also modify some cameras and remove the filter, but the results usually need processing. A side effect is that the now exposed sensor is more sensitive to both ends of the spectrum.

Not to mention that there are non-Bayer cameras that vary from the Sigma Foveon and Quattro sensors that use stacked sensors to filter out color entirely differently to the Fuji EXR and X-Trans sensors.

Hopefully without the politics…

In Soviet Russia, politics find you.

Can any x86 based system actually comes with that much unified memory?

Not an Apple fanboy, but I was under the impression that having access to up to 512GB usable GPU memory was the main feature in favour of the mac.

And now with Exo, you can even break the 512GB barrier.

And their mistake lies in believing that populist rhetoric is going to make their lives better…

Is it though? EasyEDA is more than sufficient for most uses that don’t require large amounts of layers or components. It’s easy to pickup by a novice, has basic ERC, well integrated into LCSC ecosystem.

It doesn’t have the versatility of KiCAD but is lighter and easier for light use or occasional design of moderate complexity.

Shame you threw it away. It would have been useful to collect the traffic with Wireshark and share that with info about the device in a post or a blog for others to investigate and be warned about that brand and model.

ZorinOS keeps it easy and consistent if you are familiar with windows.

I think it’s pretty good for non dev users. The distro doesn’t provide any earth shattering new innovations but they spend efforts to polish the interface and make it easy to use.

Its pretty good for people who just want a working system and don’t care about whether it’s linux or something else.

The types and degrees of customization they do to their poor Ubuntu base gives me the willies. I can hear it pleading "kill me" from all the way over here...

Chromium is highly dependent on Google’s interests. We see how they chose to implement Manifest V3 in a way that, through a strange coincidence(/s), neuters the capabilities of Ad Blocking extensions.

All downstream browsers are affected by Google’s bottom line. Putting lipstick and a few nice features on top of an engine that you don’t control doesn’t make your browser a true alternative from Google’s.
