@freemo Let C be the category of people. Let f the endomorphism of fucking, I.e. f(a,b)="a fucks b".
Thus, f(you,you).
@freemo Go prove the Collatz conjecture ! :)

IEEE 370-2020 - Standard for Electrical Characterization of Printed Circuit Board and Related Interconnects at Frequencies up to 50 GHz https://sci-hub.se/https://doi.org/10.1109/IEEESTD.2021.9316329
Interesting, IEEE just published a brand new standard in 2021 for fixture de-embedding using the 2x-Thru Method (and optionally 1x-Reflect). 2x-Thru produces highly accurate results, and only requires a symmetric "pass-through" test fixture for reference. Great for all kinds of components characterization on a VNA. And unlike proprietary algorithms from VNA vendors, it's fully specified, with a reference implementation and a test suite.
It's going to be a powerful tool for amateur radio, now I'm just waiting for Scikit-RF to implement it.

The FBI produced this nice chart comparing what kinds of privacy leaks the various messaging apps have.
Some more calligraphy practice. I see improvement on every attempt.

I find that while the Republicans usually try to pretend the problems they create arent problems at all (its a feature not a bug!) That the democrats on the other hand try to blame everything on someone else, usually the republicans.
With a bit of practice im slowly getting back up to speed...

sometime ago I had a calculator app which required you to make a decent estimate of the answer before it would give you the exact result
problem is "estimation/guess calculator" searches are so vague it makes them impossible to find online
does anyone know the company that made the app and/or physical calculator? trying to get hold of the physical version for Xmas
