Fair, I shoulda been more clear. Explained in a sibling comment. Bare metal. That's the real embedded if you ask me ;)

Bare-metal embedded firmware for microcontrollers. Right now I do the EC that goes in your laptop. Making your fans spin, making your power button work, making your computer turn off if it gets too hot, stuff like that. Previously I've

It really depends what you count as "used in production." I don't count "one Rust library crate linked into your Zephyr/FreeRTOS/whatever project." I have yet to see any production bare-metal codebase writ

As an embedded dev, it still feels a decade away, at least. Rust is perfectly usable as a lang to make a little module that links into your main project as a .a file. But, as the language for your whole embedded codebase? Forget it. I have

A harder drive made out of neglected wikis and forums. I hate it so much I might actually try to make it, just to prove a point.

"It's okay because we did it with an Agent" is the new "it's okay because we did it with an App." Both because it's used to circumvent regulation, and because the underlying technology creates a smokescree

Actually yes, I think I can call it spam. It's a stream of unsolicited garbage the recepient didn't ask for. Simple as that. "a dialect that only the agents speak" is an arbitrary distinction. I get plenty of spam emails

I take issue with Reuters' conclusion here. "vast colluding swarms of semi-intelligent AI" gives far too much credit to the behavior observed. This is just spam by OpenAI. Why and how it happened is irrelevant, the act itself

I get the F-Droid toasts once every few weeks or so. To me, it's worth it. Finding a tolerable weather app on the Play Store is impossible nowadays. Finding one on F-Droid is easy.

After the first couple paragraphs I thought this was going to be a parody of One Laptop Per Child. Sadly it wasn't.

Some basic sample code for stackless python, for those like me who had never heard of it: https://github.com/stackless-dev/stacklessexamples/blob/main... Say "stackless tasklet" five times fast.

technically the DMCA notice is from Tracer, some AI copyright troll acting at the behest of Microsoft. Not that it actually matters, just expect to see Microsoft hide behind this fact as a way to deflect blame.

Cool, a link where, if I try to watch the video, it instead opens the Play Store to nag me about an app. Twitter links should be banned from HN.

The FDA suggests that the proper preventative measure against this is "thoroughly wash your dishes and produce." which is something I was gonna do anyway, with both the store-bought lettuce and my own. Doesn't sound like a bi

My bad. I'll stop growing food to avoid birds shitting on it.

A couple of things: 1) you're taking my comment too seriously. 2) assuming I had enough space to subsistence farm for my household (I don't), I wouldn't try growing lettuce year-round. Lettuce in the cooler months, peppers an

Yeah. I can understand the confusion, though. The title claims the issue was in lower(). Though the problem was actually in encode('idna')'s usage of lower(). The article would probably get far fewer clicks if it were named &

No distro is going to be perceptibly faster than another. It's all about user experience - what tools ship with it, package manager, etc. I'd pump the brakes on Ubuntu, which nowadays is a perceptibly worse user experience than
