<p>after several years in the making, I have finally published a blog post on decoupling capacitors and why you should probably stop using 100nF.</p><p><a href="https://codeinsecurity.wordpress.com/2025/01/25/proper-decoupling-practices-and-why-you-should-leave-100nf-behind/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">codeinsecurity.wordpress.com/2</span><span class="invisible">025/01/25/proper-decoupling-practices-and-why-you-should-leave-100nf-behind/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://chaos.social/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>electronics</span></a></p>

<p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/seattle" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>seattle</span></a> voters should be receiving their ballots for the Feb 11 election this week. One of the most important items on the ballot is Seattle Prop 1A to tax wealthy businesses to fund social housing. Don&#39;t get fooled by Prop 1B which would rob affordable housing funds and was put forth by Seattle&#39;s conservative city council to avoid taxing the wealthy. Vote 1A! <br /><a href="https://www.letsbuildsocialhousing.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">letsbuildsocialhousing.org/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

Maybe we have different interpretations for what &quot;grading on a curve means&quot; (though just as possibly, for what *grades* mean). What does &quot;grading on a curve&quot; mean to you?</p>
