Of course I wouldn't vibe code in a serious production project, but I'd still use an AI agent, except I'd make sure I understand every line it puts out. So you value your ability t…

Rust assumes a runtime, the standard library assumes a stack exists, a heap exists, and that main() is called by an OS; Wrong. Source: I'm writing Rust without a runtime without a …

Sure, some do, but some are coming around and some were never there. Which is why it's important for a company like Adafruit to pick a manufacturer that is towards the open end of …

Levis stuff has been made overseas for decades now. It's only with the more recent shift towards using cotton blends in nearly of their jeans that the longevity has suffered.

Nah, it's a spectrum. Companies like NXP and Infineon are at one end. NXP wants a ton of personal information to access even the most basic docs on some of its chips, sometimes eve…

Mostly I'm just leery of software defined peripherals being at the mercy of whatever community springs up around them, nothing specific. In terms of a Metro then yeah, something to…

Right, but you're not really competing on processor speed. You're competing on maturity of peripherals where the RP doesn't really match up PIO or not. Edit: I see you're comparing…

Which is still a far worse experience than if Cloudflare's services weren't needed.

Why do you say it doesn't solve loads of things? Because I'm sitting here twiddling my thumbs waiting for random pages to go through their anti-LLM bot crap. LLMs create more probl…

Doubt it. Of all the issues I run into with Siri none could be solved by throwing AI slop at it. Case in point: if I ask Siri to play an album and it can't match the album name it …

Someone's in the Embassy matrix channel currently trying to figure out why the SPI driver is preventing the USB peripheral from enumerating on their G0…

Cortex-A includes a watchdog so yeah.

Considering the USB errata for the F7, I assume they didn't.

I've yet to see a MCU vendor ship without bugs. At least with ST, the MCU is very cheap. Moving the goalposts much? You went from "lengthy errata doesn't mean anything" to "at leas…

Of note neither the debugger nor user USB port on that board work with ARM Macs (guess how I found that out). You can connect it to a hub as a workaround but that may lead to data …

Just like security bugs, lengthy errata doesn't mean anything. A popular MCU will have bigger errata sheet because it gets more eyes on it. Yeah, no. From all outward appearances S…

This would've been years ago. Both MacOS and iOS were insanely buggy (Tiger era). I think the lack of momentum is due to the fact that CardDAV is pretty darn simple, and CalDAV is……

Also Xous which is completely independent of Embassy but applicable if you're looking for preemptive multitasking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaWkfSmIgRs

Embassy provides some traits, but it's pretty much expected you'll be using traits from embedded-hal (both 0.2 and 1.0). IMO one of the big reasons Arduino stayed firmly hobbyist t…

probe-rs is amazing. In ARM land it works with pretty much any CMSIS compliant gear, and yeah you get debugging and logging on pretty much anything as a result.
