Idk, maybe. But i think you may have issues with tolerances and reproducibility. With analog and neutral nets your going to have edgecases where some devices will give vastly differing outcomes. For something that’s fine but not for others.

Remember it’s not the school that won’t pony up, it’s your local and state government that aren’t giving them an appropriate budget.
Also keep in mind that most grant money comes with stipulations. I remember many years ago (late 90’s or early 00’s) we got a big grant for computers in the classroom. Good chunk of money. But it had to be spent on computers, and only computers. Would have been nice to get some furniture to put them on. We had some in the back of the classrooms next to the sink, some we put 2 desks set front to front (it was not level) It was janky, but the computers were nice.
When Joe Biden and Congress enacted legislation in December that blocked a threatened freight rail strike, many workers angrily faulted Biden for not ensuring that the legislation also guaranteed paid sick days. But since then, union officials says, members of the Biden administration, including the transportation secretary, Pete Buttigieg, and labor secretary, Marty Walsh, who stepped down on 11 March, lobbied the railroads, telling them it was wrong not to grant paid sick days.
“We’ve made a lot of progress,” said Greg Regan, president of the Transportation Trades Department of the AFL-CIO, the main US labor federation. “This is being done the right way. Each railroad is negotiating with each of its individual unions on this.”

It’s about $50 a month. Nothing gets released at my house, which is nice. I’m a little out of my depth with the chemical reaction, but the idea is inside the tank are a bunch of resin beads impregnated with stuff calcium and magnesium ions will bind to. So as water flows through the tank the calcium and magnesium is removed and stored in the beads. So the beads store it, but can’t store an infinite amount. The tank gets switched out every 2 weeks and culligan takes the old tank back and reverse the process. I’m sure this involves nasty stuff, but hopefully economy of scale and regulations make it a cleaner process than just dumping the salt in the ground.
Brine discharge can be pretty bad for the environment, so we do some tank exchange thing with Culligan. Every other week they install a new tank and remove the old one to be recharged. Working great so far.
I’ve had success with trivial things, like write a log file parser with this pattern, or give me a basic 3 part left-right-center header in html. Works ok for trivial side projects. I would never trust it in production. Its a tool, nothing more at this point. Like an electric drill, better than a hand crank, but you still need to know how to use it.
$650 HOA? I don’t even like my $35/month HOA.
Bachelors in Computer Science… Never made the connection.
It’s software that lives in the hardware. It provides low-level control and functionality specific to that device. It runs on the hardware itself, not the CPU of the computer.
For example, a hard drive. We don’t want the OS to have to know how to interact with every type of hard drive. Seagate does things differently than Western Digital, an SSD works very different than a hard drive, etc… The OS sends the same commands to all types of hard drives, but each hard drive needs to know how to actually comply with the commands. If the OS is asking for a dozen different files all over the drive, it would be dumb to try and read them all at the same time. The OS doesn’t really know where they are on the spinning disk, but the drive does. Firmware written specifically for the device can do a much better job planing how to fetch the data so the read head doesn’t need to go back and forth a bunch of times, but instead make one good pass fetching all the data as it comes to it.
Hope that helps.
Or even the equipment. Some people are stuck with a hot plate and a tiny minifridge.
Kinda. Most of the light from the sun is in the visible spectrum and the atmosphere does not absorb those frequencies well. Incoming light that gets reflected (snow/ice) stays in the same wavelengths so it passes back out just as easily. However the light that is absorbed by the ground is re-radiated mostly as IR and the atmosphere, specifically greenhouse gases are really good at absorbing those.
There’s a lot more going on though, it’s really complicated. Here are 2 vids that do a good job at explaining it:

Not really. Greenhouse gases don’t absorb all wavelengths of light. Generally they only absorb parts of the IR spectrum. The 50-70% of light reflected isn’t absorbed by greenhouse gasses because it’s not in a wavelength that it can absorb, it mostly radiates back into space.
The ice isn’t to cool the water, the ice is to reflect most of the incoming light.
Sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and helps moderate global climate. Sea ice has a much brighter surface compared to many other Earth surfaces, particularly the surrounding ocean. The darker ocean reflects only 6 percent of the sun’s energy and absorbs the rest, while sea ice reflects 50 to 70 percent of the incoming energy.

Insurance helped with most of it. It was cheap, I paid a little extra for the fun drugs.
Got my vasectomy a few years ago, best $500 I ever spent.
For me it was all the screaming.
I’ll be shocked if this isn’t abused to target marginalized groups and destroy their sub reddits.
Every republican and probably joe manchin too so clearly both sides are the same.
