    For rust code, I have found https://github.com/japaric/cargo-call-stack to be the best available option, as it does take advantage of how Rust types are implemented in LLVM-IR to h…

    The email gets marked as read once you click out of the email to view a different one (which I agree is unintuitive, but it is not true you have to explicitly click "mark as read")…

    I am surprised to see the same user post > no one is criticizing Apple while being pragmatic [...] it is expensive and complicated for them to do that and have waterproof devices a…

    I would be surprised if bugzilla.mozzila.org has over 5 million users

    I don't agree that the rules for UB are virtually the same as in C. One example: if your unsafe Rust code modifies any memory address for which there exists a reference elsewhere, …

    A brief search on Mouser seems to indicate that The AVR Xmega costs roughly 2.5 times as much as other 8 bit MCUs from Atmel with comparable amounts of flash/RAM -- are there other…

    Rust integer overflow bugs in release mode are still much safer than C++ integer overflows -- Rust integer overflow is well-defined to wrap in release mode, whereas it is UB in C++…

    MediaSourceExtensions ( https://caniuse.com/mediasource)is one good example of a useful API which has been supported by roughly ~every browser for years except for safari on iPhone…

    If you need to interact with connected peripherals from the linux environment a VM is still usually a much less productive experience. I do a lot of embedded development, and while…

    SpaceX pays significantly higher than NASA if you believe levels.fyi, so I think it depends what industry average you are using. If you compare to general software engineering then…

    In addition to the other comment, the primary problem with malloc() in embedded environments is that you push the memory exhaustion error to runtime, rather than compile time (not …

    For Cortex-M embedded topics, memfault's blog is simply one of the best out there. Consistently great posts even though they are written by a bunch of different authors. I go back …
