      published: October 8, 2006

      In the article Jones enumerates thirteen reasons to challenge government reports and investigate the controlled-demolition hypothesis:
      1. Molten Metal: Flowing and in Pools
      2. Observed Temperatures around 1000ºC and Sulfidation in WTC 7 Steel
      3. Near-Symmetrical Collapse of WTC 7
      4. No Previous Skyscraper Collapse Due to Fires
      5. Squib-timing during the Collapse of WTC 7
      6. Early Drop of North Tower Antenna
      7. Eyewitness Accounts of Flashes and Loud Explosions
      8. Ejection of Steel Beams and Debris – plumes from the Towers
      9. Rapid Collapses and Conservation of Momentum and Energy
      10. Controlled Demolition "Implosions" Require Skill
      11. Steel Column Temperatures of 800ºC Needed: A Problem in the Argument of Bazant and Zhou
      12. Problems in the NIST Report: Inadequate Steel Temperatures and Tweaked Models
      13. NIST's Failure to Show Visualizations

The Difference Between LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Home Edition (#31313) and LEGO MINDSTORMS Education EV3 (#45544)

http://robotsquare.com/2013/11/25/difference-between-ev3-home-edition-and-education-ev3/ This article covers the difference between the LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Home Edition and LEGO MINDSTORMS Education EV3 products. Other articles in the ‘difference between’ series: * The difference and compatibility between EV3 and NXT ( link ) * The difference between NXT Home Edition and NXT Education products ( link ) One robotics platform, two targets The LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 robotics platform has been developed for two different target audiences. We have home users (children and hobbyists) and educational users (students and teachers). LEGO has designed a base set for each group, as well as several add on sets. There isn’t a clear line between home users and educational users, though. It’s fine to use the Education set at home, and it’s fine to use the Home Edition set at school. This article aims to clarify the differences between the two product lines so you can decide which

Logic Analyzer with STM32 Boards

https://sysprogs.com/w/how-we-turned-8-popular-stm32-boards-into-powerful-logic-analyzers/ How We Turned 8 Popular STM32 Boards into Powerful Logic Analyzers March 23, 2017 Ivan Shcherbakov The idea of making a “soft logic analyzer” that will run on top of popular prototyping boards has been crossing my mind since we first got acquainted with the STM32 Discovery and Nucleo boards. The STM32 GPIO is blazingly fast and the built-in DMA controller looks powerful enough to handle high bandwidths. So having that in mind, we spent several months perfecting both software and firmware side and here is what we got in the end. Capturing the signals The main challenge when using a microcontroller like STM32 as a core of a logic analyzer is dealing with sampling irregularities. Unlike FPGA-based analyzers, the microcontroller has to share the same resources to load instructions from memory, read/write the program state and capture the external inputs from the G
