i made my friend a chart about the different Fourier transform variants blobcatgiggle

title: The Fourier transform and its friends

it's a 2 by 2 table, where rows and columns describe different things about the input accepted by the transform in the cell:

rows describe whether the input is continuous (you get to supply values at any real number) or discrete (you can only supply values at specific, usually integer, times).

columns describe whether the input is infinite (you get to supply your own values for all times from -∞ to ∞) or periodic (you only get to supply values for a finite interval of time, which is understood as a period of a periodic signal).

the cells are:
- continuous + infinite: Fourier transform (most general case! mathematical OG!)
- continuous + periodic: Fourier series
- discrete + infinite: Discrete Time Fourier Transform
- discrete + periodic: Discrete Fourier Transform (the one we can fully compute! efficiently, even!)

Someone brought back this sticker from . The QR code encodes a minified binary that obfuscates what it actually does. Looking at the , we can see the following behavior:

A sticker with a big QR code on it. In the center of the QR core is a white rectangle with "i386-unknown-linux" written on it. The QR code contains a 154B sized ELF binary. A screenshot from Ghidra with some disassembled x86 Intel-style assembly code. The disassembly reads as follows:

Hexdump of the binary. Next to the hexdump is a textual rendering of the binary, where we can see that the last 20 bytes of the binary are the string "What could go wrong?"

Watched a deep dive on Germanys debt brake and now my deep anger at the system got even more intense.

@olasd thanks, that was what I was looking for.

Ich werde jetzt aufhören an dem konfigurierbar rum zu programmieren und warte auf die Teile. ~:)

Fedi, please help: I am looking for a PDF/book detailing all 74-series logic ICs. Basically https://thecodingchicken.com/chips/1981_TI_The_TTL_Data_Book_For_Design_Engineers_2ed.pdf, but in newer. Bonus points if it's from Nexperia. I know this exists; basically one page for every 74-series IC detailing its function etc. I think it might be https://efficiencywins.nexperia.com/efficient-products/logic-product-features-and-application-insights-handbook.html ?

Given the current events in Iran it now more important than ever to support projects like Tor or Signal to circumvent censorship and help people keeping their private communication safe.
I hope that this is the last great protest, and that the Iranian citizens can have full democracy, without Israeli or USA interference.

Had to debug at lot today, and that involved some very hacky soldering.

Wieviel Pfusch ist schon wieder gute Arbeit?

Am 7. Januar 2005 verbrannte Oury Jalloh in einer Dessauer Polizeizelle. Obwohl er mit Armen und Beinen an eine feuerfeste Matratze gefesselt war, ging die Justiz jahrelang davon aus, dass Jalloh den Brand mit einem Feuerzeug selbst entzündete.

7. Januar 2005: Oury Jalloh stirbt in Polizeigewahrsam

Am 7. Januar 2005 verstarb Oury Jalloh in einer Polizeizelle in Dessau.

Oury Jallohs Tod steht exemplarisch für institutionellen Rassismus, Polizeigewalt und das Versagen von Ermittlungs- und Justizbehörden.

Dass bis heute keine vollständige Aufklärung und keine Konsequenzen erfolgt sind, ist ein politischer Skandal.

Unser Respekt und unsere Solidarität gelten insbesondere der @initiative_ouryjalloh , die seit Jahren unermüdlich Aufklärung und Konsequenzen einfordert.

Das Bild zeigt einen gerahmten Druck mit der Aufschrift „Oury Jalloh – 02.06.68 – 07.01.05“. Darunter, in einer weißen Box mit orangefarbenen Buchstaben: „Heute vor 21 Jahren in einer Polizeistelle in Dessau. Wir gedenken Oury Jalloh.“ Oben rechts in einer orangefarbenen Box das weiße Seebrücke-Logo.

The image shows a framed print with the inscription "Oury Jalloh – 02.06.68 – 07.01.05". Below, in a white box with orange lettering: "21 years ago today in a police station in Dessau. We remember Oury Jalloh." The white Seebrücke logo is in an orange box in the upper right corner.

@waldbahn ja nice, Waldbahn represented oida. Gscheid migad!
