I know that was tongue in cheek but there is some truth to that....

There is a **huge** difference between considering ideas in private, and making a public statement about your stance.

If what we care about is truly harm, and our goal is not thought policing, then this distinction is paramount.

@geotechland

@mashiro thanks

@cwebber Congrats, thanks for being the brave one and being the lab rat for the rest of us :) If you and the others last a year or two ill be right behind you, and I do appreciate you taking the risk for me.

@skells here is the writeup, its in pdf so you can download it. sorry but the certificate expired (im working on that now):

@skells I will link you, but have you at least done basic DC stuff, otherwise you might be kind of confused.. like you should at a minimum know ohms law and how to apply it. Kirchoff's law too would be nice

@xyfdi@gameliberty.club it takes a second lol but thats the beauty.

@icedquinn haha sounds about right :)

@skells thats why i asked about if you wanted to get into RF and analog... for arduino digital stuff you dont need to worry about RLC circuits or oscillations too much, but if you want to get into anything analog you do, and that can be a barrier for some.

RLC and beyond is the point in electronics where you go from simple algebra to understand everything into somewhat more complex math (either calculus, or complex numbers, eventually both for really complex circuits).

If you are familiar with complex numbers I can show you a writeup I did that shows you how to calculate circuits in a way that might help you understand whats going on in a RLC circuit.. in principle its just like a pendulum where the energy transfers between kinetic (the inductor) and potential (the capacitor)

@icedquinn that was just cocola, and it was sorta indirect. They used cocoa leaves for flavor, but it had some cocain in it as a result yea.

@icedquinn old fashion soda were flavors (not all essential oils, but thats part of it), then carbonation was added the same way as with beer, yeast. In fact old school sodas were very slightly alcoholic. As time went on the yeast was replaced with high pressure CO2

@skells sooo.. i guess depends on where you want to go.. is your end goal to be a tinkerer focusing mostly on digital electronics (arduino sort of stuff).. or do you want to get more advanced and go for analogy and RF sort of circuits.

Also what is your goal right now, to learn the soldering side of it and just have a fun project to start with, or a project geared more towards learning how electronics work than being useful?

A powersupply is a great first project if you just want to learn some soldering, how to read schematics, and assemble something, and its useful to have. But it likely wont teach you too much about electronics. Plus you can always just take any wall wart (you likely have plenty) and use it as a power supply (something i did for the first decade of breadboarding)... so you dont really need to make one yourself (unless its something rather advanced)... regardless it is a nice entry project.

Now if you want to build something that is less about having something useful or learning soldering and more about learning how electronics work I'd start with a blinking LED from scratch either using an astable multivibrator circuit (ideally this as its transistors, diodes and caps), or from a 555 IC (this is easier and simpler to understand but a little less to learn, but both teach about capacitor timing constants).

Interesting in the sense that I am glad you shared it with me, yes. Interesting in the sense that I think it will allow BTC to stay in the lead of Ethereum long term or push ETH out of the market... no

@aspie4K

@skells

DLCs arent smart contracts nor are they remotely functionally similar. The scripts arent secured by the blockchain, which is what makes smart contracts powerful.. These are just arbitrary scripts that run off-chain on a centralized server somewhere that has its own wallet and key and acts like a signer on a multisignature wallet.. They wont be replacing smart contracts and simply lack the ability to do what smart contracts do.

@aspie4K

Today is a good day for my stocks and crypto... made 12% profit in the last 24 hours!

#crypto #cryptocurrency #stock #stocks #investing

@aspie4K I am 30% in ETH (not counting tokens), 15% in ADA, and then 55% across other crypto, most of that ETH tokens.. once ADA is about 2 or 3 months away from its next stage I will bring it up to 30% - 40% of my portfolio.

@aspie4K ADA is my second largest cryptoholding after Ethereum.. and as ADA gets closer to its next phase that will swap.. Right now i expect Ethereum to take off just because in the last 3 months everyone started taking it as payment.. ADA will take a little more time to get to where ethereum is but once it gets there it will do a better job than ethereum so im going to be on that boat when it sails.

@aspie4K these past 3 months crypto has exploded... the price has went up 3 fold too but i have a feeling once people catch on just how many places are taking crypto now its going to go up at least 10 fold.

@servant_of_the_anime_avatars NVM I see what you are saying.. YOUR example is backwards.. and yea it is.. though i do think the standard way of doing it feels backwards too.

Normally you have some set of things on the left of | and then some "filter" or conditions for inclusion on the right.. which still makes me go dizzy sometimes but not as bad as your bastardized form :)
