You're right! The serial bus isn't encrypted! I got inspired, and have plugged in my scope, and then an RS422 to serial adapter, and I'm getting XML encoded (weird) CAN messages, w…

Not always - if it's used as a bus, it's 2 wire.

I have something slightly different 1 is RS422 B 2 is RS422 A 3 & 5 - GND 4 & 6 - VCC Not sure what 7 and 8 do.

Interesting! Yours is a different rev to mine, and a different chip. Can you post photos of both sides please?

No, sorry - I may be able to buzz one out of the a/c controller later on. I do, have 2 spare USB-C to JST-SH adapters that suit the round advantage air circuit board if anyone want…

It's an FT312D, which is a purpose-built android thingy that presents a serial port and allows the tablet to charge.

Speaking of sandgropers, I do understand Advantage Air are based in WA - so it's fairly likely they're reading this!

It 100% is designed so that you have to use their hardware.

Oh, and you just need one of these and a TTL to RS422 converter off aliexpress to replicate the interface: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005918675239.html The connectors on t…

Incidentally, if you root your tablet you can just change the build.MODEL to "MyAir5" and everything will work on a third party tablet.

OMFG; I am in Perth, I have the same system, the very same problem and solved it almost the same way and was in the process of writing it up. The system uses RS422, with a base64 e…

The UI looks incredible - was it closed source, and did it die with the company?

I think it's probably a great way to understand the culture of the hiring organisation and to see if your approach would work with theirs. It'll probably be relatively unsuccessful…

Grab must have absolutely incredible internal comms and leadership.

I bet the mood there is REALLY sombre. Leak or not, missing earnings is a career limiting move for management. And it was a HUGE market reaction for an earnings miss, kinda implies…

I wonder if it's as simple as population ratios for programming talent. Kenyan (distance) and Jamaican (sprinters) runners offer a counterpoint here, the world's best are all from …

It's unusual to see a coherent, from-first-principles explanation of a neural network. Especially one that's commercially valuable (i presume) to Totems. Mildly alarmed to learn I'…

It's pretty much inconceivable that he'd have a "standard options package" He would have been courted, offered a substantial slice of equity, and his contribution and membership of…

I don't understand why they don't correlate EPOS, door and aisle counters, put it in their data warehouse, and have precise close rate based on 1) visits 2) store departments I'd h…

It's their duty to, though I think I understand. I've taken some (calculated) risks quickly so as to avoid hand-wringing over details. Not so big as understanding if I'm personally…

Record companies, movie studios and even automotive companies are all hits-based businesses, much like games studios. There's no fundamental reason you can't build a sustainable bu…
