Yep. You can download/verify that script by hand, or hit the endpoints yourself. They just run stuff to provision your user and files and add you to our LDAP directory.

There /is/ a modern, well-managed open-registration shell and IRC service, similar to what you're talking about, called Hashbang. You can join via https://hashbang.sh . We're reaso…

eh, owning hardware is fun and a great learning experience

tcc is blazingly fast, at least last time i used it. it's honestly fast enough that you could probably use it as an c interpreter

Check and see if the Mirai code has default credentials for it, and if so, try logging in with them.

Mad props to you for creating that and Scanny for taking over! It's helped me automate some really nasty boring stuff that had to be done in Word.

Exactly. I see so many people complaining about the Linux kernel SLOC versus other kernels; it's an unfair comparison because no other modern kernel I know of has such a wide selec…

Making modifying stuff a felony still just slows down peoples' efforts, unless there's a reliable way of enforcing it, which is... not really possible.

Thank you for explaining! If you've contacted GTK about upstreaming your patches, what was their response? I'd be surprised if they didn't want to.

Why would stock GTK+ cause problems?

That's already happening: KXStudio, a Linux distro for audio work, has pre-packaged Ardour binaries.

It may be retired, but Sparkfun still sells it[1]. If you're looking for other faster microcontrollers with Arduino toolchain support, there's a bunch of stuff out there. See the W…

The reason someone serious about embedded development would want to buy Arduino boards is that they're convenient Atmel-architecture microcontroller boards. The ESP8266 may be "ard…

Just grab a cheap Chinese clone off of Ebay. They're pretty much completely functionally identical in my experience.

I know several devs who make music. It's not that accurate.

Exactly; without an RF amp you're not going to do any serious damage.

Seconding Zachtronics; TIS-100 is an amazing game.

There are 8 engineering majors in Congress (all in the House IIRC), which is pretty suprising.

Yeah, I'd love to get the new Razer[0] that came out this year, but unfortunately they went the way of "thunderbolt3.0 all the things" which is... not going to work with Linux. At …

Yeah, I can get that. When I was working with SDCC, I really would have preferred GCC or clang - SDCC has some funky quirks that really pissed me off and introduced some weird bugs…

What benefit does SDCC have over GCC for most embedded development? And if it's the only FOSS compiler for PICs, why hasn't someone ported parts of SDCC's backend over to LLVM or G…

It's like corporate timecube :) But in all seriousness, how do people even get away with shit like this?

Okay, sorry, read your original comment backwards. Calling into C++ is generally a big problem in any programming language though, and for most, you have to write a C wrapper.

Totally understand that :) Maybe https://www.appveyor.com/ would work out for you? It's free for OSS projects.
