Some cities will put BLE beacons in tunnels that transmit the location and then you can find your location via the strongest beacon signal. This seems like a nice way to figure that out without installing hardware!

I took the undergraduate version of this course while at Cornell. It was a wonderful course. I taught me a lot how computers work, and how to organize a large (for me at the time) software project. One of the most painful parts of the the p

Intel edisons are not great for power constrained solutions since they either have full power or are off. Would be really nice to have the ability to scale the CPU frequency for lower power situations

Wouldn't loop detection be equivalent to solving the halting problem? Obviously a naive approach would be disallow recursion/ mutual recursion, but there are valid use cases for those that may not result in infinite execution

There's a CSA I just signed up called Imperfect Produce. They deliver boxes of produce that doesn't meet the aesthetic requirements for grocery stores. Sounds like a more economical version of this.

Sometimes I use something like: #define ALLOC(n, type) (type )malloc(n sizeof(type)) which makes it harder to have those types of bugs, though not impossible.

Somewhat unrelated, but I enjoy the logical dependence chart. It's nice to see the ordering of the topics. Rather than trying to figure that out for oneself

That's awesome! RISC-V seems like a well defined ISA that allows for lots of extensions. Seems like a perfect fit for a board like the parallella.

I thought the same thing. There could've been more scientific tests, maybe an infrared camera to see the heat distribution rather than the burn marks on the parchment paper.
