       @boilingsteam Maybe they’ll spend a little more time evaluating and testing the design before shipping. That would have helped the 4.

       @adam A cap wouldn’t read as 0 ohms, unless defective (caps show as an open circuit in DC). Are there any manufacturers numbers on them?

       @adam At a guess, supercap to handle brief high current loads better than the Li packs. Does the resistance start going up on your highest resistance setting after a little while?

       @chidgey I had always thought most people listen to podcasts for enjoyment.  Rhythm and pacing are part of the performance, at least on good ones. Most people read much faster than even sped-up speech, so it seems an odd choice for time optimization.

       @chidgey You can read it as a tacit admission that their success is simply luck. If there’s little chance you will succeed and you don’t know how to make the odds better, your only strategy is to roll the dice a lot.

       @lowqualityfacts Huh. If it’s a pure copper penny and you’re talking canadian dollars, that’s pretty accurate.

       Hey, Fediverse #emacs folx: I am vaguely informed by a few sources that recent versions (emacsen >= v.28?) of package.el support retrieval from repositories (eg. github) for packages, without using quelpa or straight. Is that true?  If so, can someone aim me at a howto?  My google-fu seems to be inadequate.

       @niconiconi My students sometimes struggle with precision vs. accuracy.

       @chidgey Judging by what I’m reading about the design and “passenger-rating” process for that sub, I think you might have a topic for a future episode.

       @chidgey Actually, maybe you should do a limited series.  I’d buy.
