Ted Postol on the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists

He focuses on this article: What this Norwegian ‘close call’ says about a world without New START by Jamie Withorne, Raven Witherspoon. Other articles they've published include the one claiming there was highly enriched uranium near Isfahan: Analysis: Iran likely transferred highly enriched uranium to Isfahan before the June strikes. As regards triggering early warning systems, he says that drone attacks on Russian early warning radar systems could easily be taken as an indication of a pre-emptive nuclear strike.

I finally got the bit-mapped fonts from the Hitachi "1602" display :  Here's some JavaScript: const HD44780U01ASCII=[ [],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[], [],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ], [4, 4, 4, 4, 0, 0, 4, 0, 0, 0, ], [10, 10, 10, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ], [10, 10, 31, 10, 31, 10, 10, 0, 0, 0, ], [4, 15, 20, 14, 5, 30, 4, 0, 0, 0, ], [24, 25, 2, 4, 8, 19, 3, 0, 0, 0, ], [12, 18, 20, 8, 21, 18, 13, 0, 0, 0, ], [12, 4, 8, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ], [2, 4, 8, 8, 8, 4, 2, 0, 0, 0, ], [8, 4, 2, 2, 2, 4, 8, 0, 0, 0, ], [0, 4, 21, 14, 21, 4, 0, 0, 0, 0, ], [0, 4, 4, 31, 4, 4, 0, 0, 0, 0, ], [0, 0, 0, 0, 12, 4, 8, 0, 0, 0, ], [0, 0, 0, 31, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 12, 12, 0, 0, 0, ], [0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 0, 0, 0, 0, ], [14, 17, 19, 21, 25, 17, 14, 0, 0, 0, ], [4, 12, 4, 4, 4, 4, 14, 0, 0, 0, ], [14, 17, 1, 2, 4, 8, 31, 0, 0, 0, ], [31, 2, 4, 2, 1, 17, 14, 0, 0, 0, ], [2, 6, 10, 18, 31, 2, 2, 0, 0,...

Using Pipewire to Make A Music Synthesizer

Illustration from Project Gutenberg's The Tenniel Illustrations for Carroll's Alice in Wonderland by Sir John Tenniel. Thinking about the linux desktop audio problem: I'm not the only one who finds this weird: https://t.co/b2BZMiak07 — eternal Doorman (@IanANGrant66) May 17, 2025  I noticed that if you change the volume using the Gnome volume keys it changes it in jumps. Usually you don't notice, but if you play a pure sine tone then you can easily hear the distortion. If you want to play with pipewire from C on Ubuntu 24.04 then it's really easy. The pipewire tutorials and examples can be compiled and run if you just first install the pipewire-0.3-dev package with sudo apt install libpipewire-0.3-dev But the API is sooo far away from pluggable, typed streams that I find it quite depressing. Is it because nobody understands the necessary type system . See  Programming Channel Processes and Alice's Adventures In The Wonderland Wide Web . [Update: y...
