Common Sense Isn't That Common What is common sense? Common sense is, by its root, some experiences that had been repeated again and again, until it's viewed as the norm. And what is science? Science is trying to disprove a hypothesis, and when cannot disprove, will **temporarily** become the truth. See the similarities in definition? So when it comes to science, when you disprove something, like Einstein proved that Newton's formula is just an approximation that isn't…

Question About Analog and Digital You know, we have things about analog and discrete/digital in the world, and now there's the new analog and digital computing. One think that the development of analog computing is great, providing it's benefits as defined. Though, there are some more fundamental question to ask; which isn't really related to the computer, but to how the world works. For our sounds are analog signals, travelling in waves. And there are lots of other waves…
Dealing with MODBUS OK, particularly, one was dealing with this sensor thingy that comes with quite a bad documentation, so it was painful dealing with it. The first thing, after you get it powered up and connected on MODBUS/TCPIP (assuming you don't use the older RS232 or RS485), it's to **find the damn IP address**. Basically, when checking the documentation, it tells me it has an IP address of 192.168.0.X, where X is what you have to find yourself. So, let's get to the…
The NFT Dilemma Consider this: the person is building a POS system on web3, and thinks of dispatching an NFT that links to a physical object and sell to to the customer. Now, consider this: The customer buys the apple to eat. The salesperson dispatches the NFT to the customer. The customer went home and eat the apple. How do we burn the NFT away **without the customer doing it manually**? Do we control the camera at the customers' home so it can spy on whether the apple is…
