No rush - been busy over here too.

Thank you for this. Also small world, floating point JPEG person here.

looks like they never went 64 bit

I modified STB-Image's JPEG codec to render JPEG files directly to 32-bit floating-point pixels to reduce color banding when editing images. Coincidentally, this can recompress JPE…

My pet peeve is that grub repartitions windows disks on chain load, so if it ever boots with the disks remapped, there's a chance it'll plow apart the partition table of whatever p…

Long enough ago I don't remember the business details. The 4.x compiler line never being patched was a bit of eye opener into commercial toolchain support.

I was still learning assembly, it took me a while to be sure it wasn't my bug.

You're eactly right. I saw the blight at Herculaneum, MO in the 2000s - dozers plowing down houses in a slowly expanding circle centered on the smelter. 1 in 5 students had excess …

Takes many bit flips to go from one pattern to another.

I'd guess insurance companies. Who used to get it from oil change places. https://abc7news.com/car-insurance-auto-mileage-odometer/133...

That's more the scale I was thinking .You'd still need a rechargeable battery or large cap to run the ESP32 in any useful mode.

I've been on one. Aircraft carrier. Edit: commenter seems to be editing without noting their edits. This comment was written against a their comment in a different revision.

100 microwatts - I can't imagine a phone idles on that. About 36 microamps at 3.6 volts. > less than a coin at 15 x 15 x 5mm Slightly smaller than a stack of four US dimes.

You can use a Windows build on wine.

Agreed. Where it mattered for me was on an ARM core managing a much larger DSP. The DSP consumed most of the memory bandwidth, so fetching a cacheline of instructions or an MMU map…
