I brainfarted a bit and mixed up my attempts with making LTSPICE asc schematics (which are the text representations of the GUI sch, with wires) with the normal node based SPICE syntax. I just tried this specifically asking for spice to run with ngspice to run in a CLI. Seemed to run great! Going to play around with this for a bit now…

Try having it output the circuit in SPICE. It actually works surprisingly well and does a good job picking out components values for parts and can describe the connectivity well. It falls apart when it writes the SPICE (professionally, there isn’t really one well accepted syntax really)and making the wires to connect your components, like you say missing the minds eye. But I can imagine adding a ton spice schematics with detailed descriptions with maybe an LLM optimized SPICE syntax to the training data set… it’ll be designing and simulating circuits in no time.

Another reason to not use a DSLR is that many (all?) have timeouts (<30min) in their video mode due to some import tax reason, even when hooked up to a computer. Atleast this is what I found when I tried a canon DSLR with canons webcam software.

NYC did legalize e-bikes at the start of all this, a step in the right direction.

I heard, anecdotally, that non-approved masks have the possibility of aerosolizing a cough/sneeze more

The exact number wasn't really the point + elon has a history of releasing high performance spec's before the actual technology is ready. Maybe they have special tires in the works, but the rubber that's on the market today can't do that

Yep, and why every supercar's 0-60 time is limited to about ~2.6s these days. Also why tesla is claiming to be able to achieve <2.6s only with the cold gas thruster "SpaceX" package, they're no longer solely relying on the tire traction.
