I have troubles calling something a "cash grab" when it's been arguably the single most influential project in the hacker/maker/DIY electronics space. I don't doubt the boards coul…

I feel like this has to be a toolchain issue, there's no reason the pin number -> register table couldn't be resolved at compile time, similar with conditionally compiling certain …

Huh, I got 9/10 for GPT-5, and I was pretty convinced I was picking 4o in several questions based on the style. Interesting! The questions were pretty much unlike anything I've eve…

I actually have no idea what you mean with the example, all the toolbars on the page fit 4 or more buttons, I tried viewing it in various window widths, can you be a bit more speci…
