I, for one, would love for the Kernel to tell users to f themselves sometimes an break compatibility. In that order.

Is 499 EUR for that BOM fair? Genuinely asking... high end SoM modules with carrier boards and a metric ton of software can be obtained by half of that price, and op-amps aren't that costly.

Look... I'm a Kubernetes dude through and through. I put Kubernetes in small embedded devices to control factory shops, so, I'm a fan. But let's all agree this maybe is a tad much, shall we?

Please, kill Jira and Confluence. I hate Atlassian tools so much. The user interfaces are sluggish no matter the hardware you're using... it's a shame it became almost a standard in our industry.

Other comments have put better than I could, but I'll add that what people call ecosystems nowadays is completely unthinkable in embedded. Sometimes you have critical applications and you bet you need to certify every single line of co

The truth is: we, actual embedded developers, much rather compile a LUA interpreter and stick it in there and be done with it.

We are slowly getting better at this. Most embedded Linux companies for example have shifted or are in the process of shifting to an upstream-first policy. A lot of the toolchains are open, busybox is used everywhere. A lot of the really go

Very cool! Does anybody know something like a translator tool between all the different `yaml`s different CI/CD services use? Or maybe some metalanguage specifically made for that that can run instead of whatever hell dash/bash is

>Without code search, you might have to clone a bunch of repositories and grep through them Why is this an issue? I do have a clone of all my company repos, doesn't everyone? Memory is cheap and ripgrep/ag are fast.

Alpine, Debian and Arch have never given me a miss regarding packaging for arm64/hf. And I work specifically with embedded Linux using those distros as a base.

I wish it was just a matter of the `-<version>` thing... Debian metadata (control, rules...) and its build system (sbuild, rebuild) is arcane and feels old. Having to maintain a Debian feed is a major PITA.

Did we have "search engineers" back when search engines and indexers were first created?

It's not really over complicating anything, though? It makes perfect sense, it's not hard to understand. Nested VMs have been a thing for a looong time. I honestly don't understand where the criticism for Docker and k8s come

Kind is super cool! I used it for my thesis, as I needed many nodes without getting super into k8s configuration. I love, love kind. If you're into learning Kubernetes, it's probably the easiest way to get yourself a cluster quick

We should physically burn all the servers that ever held the information inside this repo and bury the remains inside a nuclear waste long-term storage. I hate it. 10/10.

I used it as a reference for the Welford's method of calculating the mean and variance, and for other random things throughout the years. If you need a solid /reference/ for some mathematical-computerish thing, it's prob

The "triple equal" or "really really equal" or whatever we call it is the stupidest thing a language can have. If your language needs something like that, it already failed* somewhere along the way. * Which doesn't

Honestly I'd rather Sublime had taken over instead of VSCode. It's just really good software. Sublime to me is up there with OpenBSD and the Golang standard library in terms of well written, "just works" software.
