If you get the ? from rust in addition to the option, then it’s suddenly a lot more convenient. It will do `if err != nil { return err; }` in a single symbol. There’s also convenie…

There are arguments for why 0-based indexing is _better_, unrelated to pointer arithmetic. https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~EWD/transcriptions/EWD08xx/EWD831... > we had better regard —a…

I worked on a game where we added a "fairness" factor to randomness. If you were unlucky in one battle, you were lucky in the next, and vice versa. Mathematically you ended up comp…

Interesting to see an alternative approach. I struggled a bit to understand the explanation on github, but eventually got to something that made sense. It would have helped me if i…

Capitalization is ignored by the compiler. So you can call it REPEAT, repeat, rEpEaT and so on. Same for variable names, functions, etc.

I don't know, but anecdotally, I still use it for work, but no longer for personal chats. It also seems like someone at Slack is tasked with driving up engagement, because I get th…

Thanks! I've been using pinout.xyz quite a few times; maybe you should link from there to the pico versions so it's easier to discover?

Thanks! So I guess the best recourse then is to resize the table? Seems like it should be part of the analysis, even if it's low probability of it happening. I haven't read the pap…

One thing I don't understand from watching the video, is what happens in the (very rare) case that you get collisions all the way down the funnel. I assume this is related to the "…

The UX on MacOS is so bad here. First, a notification prompts you to enable Apple Intelligence. When you dismiss the notification by clicking the "x" in the corner, it instead open…

There's also MPU in even simpler/cheaper MCUs. For instance, ARM Cortex M0+ sports an MPU, and this architecture is used in STM32C0 ($0.24 in bulk) and RP2040. I have no idea how t…

I also have mixed results with using the iPad as an external monitor. It works every time, but it's orders of magnitude more fiddly than an actual monitor. Exposing it as a monitor…
