Nah, the investors don't see it as a benefit to your growth to pay people you don't have to

5V will be pulled directly from 5V supply

The chip you are concerned about getting warm I believe is your 3.3V regulator.

I would ensure your transistor has some resistors to ensure you are not drawing more current than required from the 3.3V supply

If that is all good then I will remind you of a few things

1. The board you have is a clone (I use them... but they can be dubious)
2. The ESP8266 requires a certain amount of current to run which will cause the chip in question to generate heat all on its own
3. The chip in question appears to be an LDO which will mean going from 5v to 3.3v is done by turning the excess voltage into heat.

I couldn't find an exact Datasheet but I am led to believe that the chip is a clone of this

And here is a wiki entry incase you are curious about Voltage Regulators and the such

Oh yeah, he isn't weird... but what about that sofasexual?

Weird traitors

What a bunch of fucking entitled weirdos

Its amazing what a good camera + good lens + good film can do

Digitization results can also be pretty good if you have well preserved negatives

That said, beyond that statement I can't answer much more.

Do you! You look awesome! Anyone who can't accept it can go piss up a rope

You see Konami slot machines all over Vegas... and a big Konami building as you go down the runway after landing too... (but none if this is particularly new)

Religious is from 08 and DID attack every religion.

I was watching from 12-17 and islamaphobia was on full display in most episodes. He would defend himself as you would expect but he didn't hit all religions like he did Islam during that time.

I quit watching him after the N-Word incident because I expected a much different handling of it than apologizing to Ice Cube...

Thats fair. I was paraphrasing

He has a pretty long history of saying things along that idea. We can split hairs if we must.

~~He kept doubling down on "All muslims are violent" and "Islam is a violent religion"~~

He pushed a lot of anti-muslim rhetoric on his show

Then would bitch that the youth just don't get comedy and that he is being canceled when he would be protested at college campuses.

It got tiring to listen to a multi millionaire complain about these things from the set of his TV show

He doesn't care about comedy or cancel culture; saying inflammatory things is all that keeps him relevant

I used to be a pretty big fan of Bill Maher.

I say he is washed up because he is VERY vocal about the younger generation not getting comedy and his being "canceled"

The more I heard his whining on the topic the more I realized that he thinks he is a lot more funny than he is.

If the audience isn't laughing maybe its best to ask if your joke was funny before blaming the audience
