It's neat that it works on the device itself, that will come in handy when during field testing. However I'll continue to use wireshark for debugging my network code when at the of…

Curl now uses the idiom where the linked list data (prev/next pointers) are inlined in the same struct that also holds the payload And when you have a memory overwrite then your me…

I've also used http://www.mucommander.com/ for a while, I haven't kept track so I'm not sure about the current status.

Looks like a good start. I would love to get a full replacement of TotalCommander for macOS. I've tried a few and I'm currently using Forklift 3. There's still some features that I…

I'm missing a "Enable select from QuickLook". Most annoying that Apple removed that feature. Otherwise good list.

I would also like to get some recommendations for self hosted systems. Anyone?

When I started to program in C I used "n" for the longest time, simple because it was quicker on to type on my first computer; "Next N" was a quick two taps on the N key. Guess the…

Where I live (lived) there's no such thing as free local calls. Whenever you dialed anything the meter started counting. I became very good at mentally preparing what I wanted to d…

I prefer to use RSS and daily use a combination of Feedly and Reeder for iOS. I haven't found any better for keeping on-top of daily news. I guess it depends on the content you're …

That might be true but my tools should never dictate how I work.

The Danish plant is about an hours drive from me. There's not much IT related going on in that area so it's good to see that someone is willing to invest.

When we had our first, and thus far, only kid there were some complication that resulted in my GF had to be hospitalized. Then it got worse and she was moved to a hospital which sp…

I remember using basic during my demo coding days to find the optimum algorithms. When everything is running at 0.5fps it's easy to sport which implementation is the fastest. So af…

Always great with more competition, hopefully it will result in better editors for everyone. I wish someone would make SourceInsight for OSX, it's by far the best editor I've ever …

I don't think this has anything to do with poor geography skills. Just ask a number of people to draw a normal bike and you get all sort of strange drawings, just look at this page…

This was exactly how I made sprite animations back in my Amiga demo coding days. Take a look at early C64/Amiga demos and you'll recognize these patters.

I much prefer what IBM is doing with their Ponder This challenges ( http://domino.research.ibm.com/Comm/wwwr_ponder.nsf/pages/in... ). Only problem is that I'm not smart enough to …

It depends hugely on which industry you work in. I'm developing SW for mobile phones and it's not been too long ago I had to use a climate chamber to debug a memory chip that was s…

Perhaps it will be something like Bang & Olufsen V1 TV ( http://www.beoplay.com/Products/BeoplayV1 ) which have a small compartment where a ATV can be hidden. That would make more …

That's what I did back in 2000 when I moved to SF. Also be prepared to pay a deposit on utilities. My biggest issue turned out to be cellphones where I had to go pre-paid. Not sure…

I use a lot of state machines in my embedded projects. Perhaps it's because I was a developer on a state chart to C converter (www.visualstate.com) some time ago and that have colo…

Exactly, free memory is wasted memory.

IC are like cats. They both have 9 lives and each time you handle it outside a protective environment it loses a life (the IC, not the cat :-) You may not see a failure right now b…

If we had any web skills we could build our own site :-) In my part of the world positions are mostly filled by word of mouth but I guess that's true everywhere. However I'm lookin…

Where would you go for embedded jobs? I realize that HN is not typically for devs who program close to the hardware but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy the discussions here. I do h…
