So you’ve seen a poll where the question “Do you believe killing children to steal their land” was posed to Israelis, and the majority said yes?

You understand nothing of the conflict if this is what you think

You find that a convincing argument? My point is that none of us know nearly as much as we think we do. If you think you’ve somehow zeroed in on the truth while sitting behind a sc…

I will never forgive Atlassian for JIRA :)

I have similar thoughts all the time. What behaviors are incentivized and what are punished? And it has little to do what leadership says and a lot to do with what it does, and we …

As Canadian, I have zero faith in this :)

Since you’re in embedded Linux, I’d suggest some of the bootlin learning material. Something like an i2c or spi driver might be good. QEMU is nice for learning because you can more…

Thanks for the apenwarr.ca link. I have not seen that blog before. I could spend all day reading it.

It has bothered me for a long time that we spend so much money on roads/transportation infrastructure and digging up rocks from the ground. I wish there would be more investment in…

Will you be doing embedded Linux? Embedded RTOS? Bare metal? Microcontrollers? SoC (say, FPGA with a hard processor core)? You can do a lot with QEMU. https://bootlin.com/ has a lo…

I will give it a try - I just started learning VHDL and have been using GHDL LS from PyGHDL. It’s not bad but a bit lacking.

omg yes. This is my single biggest complaint about large Python projects, or anything with complex implicit type conversions. Fun to write, a nightmare to read.

One big lesson that newer languages like go and rust seemed to have learned is that the tooling, building and dependency management need to be dictated as part of the language ecos…

This blow my mind a little. I have to wonder if there is signal processing potential for, say, SDR.

Justine’s work blow my mind

Give them to me! :)

I’ve read that setup was non-trivial. How did you find it?

Healthy Software developer has been a great resource. It sounds clichéed but knowing you’re not alone in some of this stuff is a comfort.
