@yosh Nice. I used to work with scientific radiation detectors. Those naturally have different requirements, and might require liquid nitrogen cooling or vacuum chambers or might be pretty big. So I was wondering what consumer-grade detectors were using. It turns out they're using PIN diodes. Pretty cool
@yosh That's cool! What kind? I'm curious what you've got in your living room.
@b0rk can you do #4 with a fifo (named pipe)?
@brk @fasterthanlime the implementation is the standard
@b0rk I find it helpful to think of it like a linked list. You can say a linked list is just a node (that points to the next node), but that doesn't really capture the full nature/intent of a list. That's how I feel about seeing "branches are just a commit". The distinction between branch and commit is context dependent, just like the distinction between linked list and node.
@neverbeaten @TechConnectify this is a great suggestion. It's a really cool, easy to understand piece of technology that'd be a great fit for the channel
@fasterthanlime @sheromon it sure feels like it every time I do an svn update
@fasterthanlime @sheromon I'd just like to chime in and say no, not everyone has moved on ðŸ«
