If you need more accurate analog measurements it is better to use an external ADC (with i.e. SPI interface). This will cost quite a bit more but will save the hassle of calibrating…

I really like the short story Typical. It is one of my favorite short stories.

According to crunchbase that was only three months ago? How many people were hired in that time frame?

Totally agree. I would also like to add that, as a non-native, pretty fluent Mandarin speaker, it is pretty hard to chitchat with Chinese colleagues, especially when it is a big gr…

> If it seems daunting remember that it’s something even the dumbest two year olds are able to figure out how to do, so you could probably figure it out Language acquisition skills…

Stange advice indeed. It will take years to become a doctor and you will be over 40 and starting with no experience.

> I'll never catch up to people that started in their early 20s, but I hope I can figure out how to climb the ladde as quickly as possible. I was in a similar position a couple yea…

Looks like they are using IMGUI as dev tool: https://github.com/ocornut/imgui

Do you think there is any practical use to it instead of running just an embedded OS? Driver support maybe?

Yes, you can actually. I haven't done this myself, but there are defconfigs for mmu less devices (stm32f4 series for instance). You need some more RAM though, but most evaluation k…

Most things that you state are not culture related. If communication is really troublesome, I understand that you would leave such a place. Better tooling and programming guideline…

Do you have any tips on how to improve in the embedded domain? I've got some professional experience, mostly doing embedded application (MMU-less) development. I'm looking into lin…

Interesting. I know how tedious it can be to get this working across platforms (or even just one!). So, I guess it is possible to use this on linux ( https://www.kernel.org/doc/htm…

Is HID PID fully implemented on Windows / Linux (i.e. does it load a generic driver like USB ACM or USB HID mouse / keyboard). I remember that I looked into this, but couldn't find…

Agreed. Don't be 100% money focused in your 20s and 30s.

Shouldn't be this more like 0.01%? Two startups as an early employee and hitting almost 50M. Wow. just wow.

I'm working for an unknown startup and I feel like I will placed in a pool of entry level candidates if I decide to join a big corp.

Maybe there is a bare minimum on comfort what people are willing to accept? I lived in Asia for a while. There were some many options. From a 3m2 room (if you wanted to sit, you ha…

> unqualified morons so where does someone who is unqualified becomes an unqualified moron?

You're dwelling on this. If you have a PhD, have extensive experience with Java, are mid/senior level you should already have forgotten about this interview. Hearing that you're "n…

Anyone experience with companies in the Netherlands? I have something that's called STAK but it's shrinking round after round.

No, I'm not surprised by this shotgun approach. Especially if money is a strong incentive. I think it is pretty much common these days. I'm surprised, however, about the willigness…

I think a better comparison would be how much effort a candidate puts into finding a better job. People willing to grind leetcode, send out 400+ resumes, doing a lot of interviews …

Not OP, but Amsterdam based faangs/unicorns don't pay as much. I'm willing to grind leetcode, but I can't really find any companies in the Netherlands that are worthwhile (that pay…
