And then supply would collapse because nobody in their right mind would invest more in learning to program than they would ever earn actually doing it.
Or, they would have their welfare cut off until they got a real job.
Most of those issues will be a problem for ANY circuit, not just one with a CPU. There are plenty of schematics and diagrams of a bare AVR on a board to crib from if it isn't obvious enough. Fully agreed that it makes sense to prototype the circuit on a breadboard first, but again, that applies to anything, not just a CPU.
If you will need to make a shield for your project, the board is a sunk cost. However, you did mention an important threshold. Unless I was going to make thousands, A Pi based project would probably be better off on a shield anyway regardless of skill. If production is over a few hundred, a custom run with the un-needed parts left out might make sense. It is, after all open-source hardware.
An Arduino project is quite another matter. It's simple enough that it's almost a toss-up between taking the open files and modifying them for a custom run vs doing a custom board from scratch.
Personally, I run flashblock and privacy badger. Java is disabled in my browser. If I'm not seeing your ads it's because of your own wrongdoing. There seems to be a LOT of wrongdoing out there.
If that's the only model available to advertisers, they will accept it.
Ad companies have had the chance from day 1 to make sure they don't serve malware (and to take responsability if they do), don't serve seizure inducing ads, and don't tag people like bears to track them, but they have failed to do so. The one time they said they would make concessions on tracking, they promptly reneged when they saw how many people set DNT.
Big surprise, behave like an ass all the time and nobody wants to hang out with you.
Many experts have stated that there is no real connectivity between the entertainment network and the rest of the system. It's not that hard for that to be true. That is very much a logical separation.
Either way, it could be fun to watch the FAA and FBI beating each other over the head.
First, don't roll your own PCB with a microcontroller on it unless you know what you're doing.
With parts like AVR, it's become nearly stupid simple. All the fiddly bits you are talking about are on the chip now. In some cases where you can use the internal clock, you really only need power and a reset connection (just a pull-up and a momentary switch will do, add a cap to be really clean about it).
Since he specified a Molex part, it seems reasonable that it was supposed to be a part that is meant to mate with a Molex connector, don't you think? What he actually got instead was clearly not what was ordered if it was meant to mate with anything else.
The 99% has the numbers and in a situation like that, nothing to lose. How many 1%ers do you suppose can operate and maintain that heavy weaponry under fire?
No, I was buying into the current political ans social reality that leans strongly towards gladiators and food riots rather than to prosperity for all. Given the current reality, when you say "they'll just get service jobs", that's what you're suggesting (even if it isn't what you intend).
We don't get to just kick that can down the road unless that's where we want to end up. Now is the time to acknowledge that the current plan is unworkable.
That's more or less my point. Apparently the many who say it can't happen includes the FAA (otherwise, why no advisory). The FBI alleges that he actually did just that during the flight (even if not impossible, their story is a bit thin).
More strangely, he as a future defendant is one of the few experts who believes it is even possible, but they can't exactly use him as an expert witness for the prosecution.
Surely if he ACTUALLY did any such thing the FAA would have issued a notice requiring aircraft WiFi (at least in that model plane)to be disabled. It seems like we have an id10t at the FBI who wants to notch his belt and hasn't considered the wider implications of his allegations.
Consider if the FBI should prevail in court. Suddenly the FAA comes under fire and has to publicly denounce the verdict and the FBI to save itself. The flip side is that the FAA gets proactive and testifies that it can't happen and the FBI gets to sit in the hot seat.
So in other words, there ARE such people but they can already get help if needed.
The original claim was that there were no such people. Say what you mean!
As for frailty, there are a lot of ways a person can end up more than strong enough to operate the brakes but need a walker. For example, perhaps one leg is severely limited and other issues make crutches a problem.
The problem is that currently service industry jobs tend not to pay well enough to afford the services.With no customers to speak of, the industry collapses.
The 99% have guns and any idiot can make a Molotov cocktail. The 1% better be prepared to hole up in their gated communities with no outside resources.
Perhaps more accurately, the A.I. MUST be able to either handle the situation or decide it can't and bring the vehicle to a safe stop to allow a driver to take over. What it must not do is suddenly buzz and expect the human to instantly take over to avoid a crash. Rule number one, the AI is responsible for the vehicle until the human voluntarily indicates he has taken over, no matter what.
Yes there are. Perhaps it's not actually IMPOSSIBLE for them to pump their own gas, but it may be significantly more difficult than it is for you or me. Consider an elderly person who needs a walker. Now consider that they can't maneuver the nozzle and hold their walker with both hands at the same time. It's not impossible, but it sure would be significantly easier for them if someone else pumps their gas.
You're trying to turn a fairly bumpy curve into a cliff and it doesn't really fit.
Our current vaccination rate for measles is not really adequate which allowed an introduced infection to spread a bit and even find a second epicenter due to travel. However, we do have a sufficient immunization rate that it died out fairly quickly. The empirical evidence proves that.
If you are correct, why isn't measles spreading in a big wave across the country right now? Most of the population has never had the measles.
There is a point where the immunization rate isn't adequate to significantly change the course of an epidemic, but there is no point where a low but existent rate of effective immunization makes matters worse through slowing the burn rate.
There is more than JUST luck, but luck is required. Most start by being born on 3rd base and go from there. The key is that the more you already have (often due to luck), the less luck you need to go up from there. At some point, being well known for being successful gives you an effective re-do button.
Nevertheless, in addition to a talent and a lot of work, Musk is OMFG lucky as well. Musk is one in about 6 billion people, someone had to get the lucky streak.
Successful people are those who are smart, hard-working and persistent
The point though is that there are a lot of UN-successful people with the same traits and less luck. Sometimes their luck isn't sufficient to give them the means to persist. The idea that unsuccessful people are invariably the architect of their own failure is toxic.

s/WiFi/SEB/g and it's the same issue. Surely you could have managed to work that out.
How many of the OTHER SEBs showed the same signs, I wonder?
Ever heard of "springs".
Many will, especially when younger. However, I have seen angry blue jays break cats of that habit.

You can't keep doing that any more than you can zip a zip file 4 more times for extra compression.
Fast food workers haven't been replaced YET, but they have been marginalized to the point they can no longer afford to live.

So, look carefully around you. Know anyone who spent their 20s and 30s like that who isn't a millionaire? You probably do.
