Looking for a new job as an Embedded Software Engineer.
I have 3 years of experience as an embedded software engineer in an R&D team. Mostly with embedded C, real-time operating systems, ESP32, communication protocols, and some hardware design.
I'm specifically looking for companies that work on sustainability, health, education, privacy, FOSS, or similar fields. In the eastern part of the Netherlands or hybrid/remote.
If anyone knows any interesting companies, please let me know!
It's really refreshing and reassuring to know that, during these chaotic and depressing times, our economy is being run by serious people who believe in things that are definitely real and who take rational actions on the basis of those beliefs.
It'd really suck if capital was concentrated in the hands of a rogue's gallery of capricious sycophants, sleazy conmen, and number-crunchers who suck at math, all of whom had their brains melted by AI.
what we thought we knew about autism and... whatnot
'For decades, researchers had been measuring the wrong thing. Conflating communication style differences with empathy deficits produced dramatically inflated effect sizes and an illusion of empathy impairment'
For some reason "AI is just like watching Netflix" is back in my feeds so I took that as a sign to update my data tracking for Netflix. The company's energy use rose 1% from 2021 to 2024.
Compare that to:
Google: 71%
Nvidia: 88%
Meta: 96%
Microsoft: 119%
Where are all the multi-gigawatt, tens-of-megatonnes gas-fired data centres being proposed by Netflix? Are governments frantically rushing fast-tracking laws for video streaming?
Morning all,
I am writing to see how the employment market is in Belgium in regards to cycling.
I am working to move to Belgium soon and would love to work in the cycling industry.
Any advise about the industry and the pitfalls you might have encountered would help a lot.
Serious offer: i know how to make electric bicycles, electrify analog bicycles and repair broken electric bikes/scooters. If you are in #Brisbane, feeling fuel pinch, and want to get (back/newly) on two wheels, hit me up. Parts to electrify a bicycle cost a few hundred dollars, no need to spend $4000 on a store bike if you donât want to. I even have some analog bikes we could use for parts. If you have access to ex rental scooters from defunct rental companies, i can also help resurrect these.
Will hold a weekend #ebike #escooter #micromobility workshop if there is interest.
ETA: if not in brissy i can recommend parts to buy
ETFA: if you have a good bike but a dead battery, this can be resurrected for around $100
ETEFA: your replies tell me I'd better pump out a blog post on this subject pronto.
