I was interested, so went and checked out the filing for this [1], it looks like he only got hit with the possession with intent to distribute, with the other 3 charges (including 'possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number') being dismissed.

Are you sure that's the same case? That links says, "Last Updated: Oct. 7, 2022, 6:14 a.m." and the defendant name is different from in the OP.

This appears to be the actual case: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69482949/united-states-...

You're both right, but your comment is confusing the issue. You're linking to the relevant case for TFA, whereas parent is linking to the relevant case for this thread regarding FPSRussia.

my bad I should have read closer

He took a plea deal, might have beaten the charges at trial, but the consequences of losing were way too high for him, can’t really blame him.

Marijuana and honey oil. He watched too much Trailer Park Boys and got caught.

He must’ve forgot to mix it with maple syrup.

I understand you want to refute/diminish the parent comment on finite automata, but I think you are providing a straw man argument. The parent comment does provide an interesting, factual statement. I don't believe finite state automata are at all close in complexity to real-world self-driving car systems (or even a portion thereof). Your closing statement is also dismissive and unconstructive.

I believe finite state modeling is used at NASA, A google search brings up a few references (that I'm probably not qualified to speak to), and I also remember hearing/reading a lecture on how they use them to make completely verifiable programs but can't find the exact one at the moment.

I wasn't making a strawman, I was making a parody of his strawman. I thought it's obvious, since I was making an analogy, and it was an analogy to his argument.

Thanks for this initial go at the blinking LED script! I went ahead and tried to add some quality-of-life features to this that I wanted. I've never used pyqt before, so I admit I had help from google and copilot figuring out methods. Anyways, here is an updated version that has a few more configurations for background color, circle color, slowdown period, graceful window resizing, and graceful shutdown.

Looks good!

Try doing one on a physical device too... My settings are just related to fade after reaching target or turn off immediately, Led colour (my ESP32 has a RGB onboard) and blink or pulse. Then there is a Start & Stop rate (150-60) as standard and IF sensor is connected or has data (heart) those values adjust too.

Nice one!
