It seems you never have been abroad. Go out and explore the world yourself. The is not for fun facts. It is history and where people live. Nobody wants one time zone, because nobody wants to wake up at 8pm and go to work and such things. Th

What is so weird? I've been there several times. I can assure you, it is no different than in any other country. You can wake up at 7am and the sun is out. The sun goes down at about 6pm. Go out, leave your desk and explore the world.

Nepal is not the roof of the world. Tibet is the roof of the world. I've been there and have people there, which I consider as friends.

Nothing new. You can go the you Audi, BMW, Mercedes Dealer and "upgrade" your car with some features as long as no new hardware is required. It is quite common for some time, that a number of features are just a bit flip in the se

Tesla is a very good example of making good PR without anything specific new. They say, that they offer a performance package for an old model. But what is the real truth behind? 1. Improved battery performance: Everybody knows that batteri

Nice read, but still some misconceptions and misunderstandings. If I am in a multiprocessor design, where each processor runs completely independent from each other and there is no central organizational unit like a central OS, like in many

What I am missing with all the smart home thing and only the Nest has done right is, that the smartphone is a personal thing. But switch on a light or similar is not a personal thing, if you are living with a family with kids. In particular

It looks like you have no glue in terms of software development requirements in the automotive industry. Software development for embedded devices is a totally different story than software development in the IT industry. The is no minimal

But bitcoin will not help you at all, when there is no delivery. Bitcoin has no charge back. Bitcoin is in this sense mor like Western Union. The credit card system gives much better consumer protection most of the time.

What about screen readers and all those device that support people with certain disabilities? They maybe able to access the static version, but how about their participation? What if they need to login to get access to certain information?

That is right for safety related system. You always need a second path at least, because of single point of failure. But, being said that, part of safety related development is, to cover any theoretically possible behavior. Because not doin

Working in industrial embedded systems, I know this ignorance in software design just to meet deadlines. Doing testing myself on such device on one side I follow the mantra "The art of testing is to make border cases possible and not t

I have catch-all running for a few years now, but no real spam problem. Maybe due to the fact that greylisting still works pretty effective. Most of the spam I receive is on my GMX including the email address I never used for sign-ups of an

To be honest, I've abandoned that use for some years now and use simply a catch-all on my domains. Much easier to use, especially as many larger organizations rejecting the + because of "fake" email address.

Yeah, that annoys me a lot. Always these people who want to reject "fake" email addresses not knowing that there is a lot of weired stuff allowed according to the RFC. Funny thing, mostly these are the big corporations who rejects

Incomplete Article for old well known stuff: 1. "Gmail has a wildcard for the + sign as it doesn't recognize it nor any characters that follow it." This wrong. It is well documented and called aliasing within Google. There is

I think, you never heard of Snowden? The people from Google where also pretty sure, that their property was safe, until proved otherwise. I think, you knew that Netatmo, a _weather_ station, was recording loudness and the company behind was

Not really for embedded systems. Because the majority of the embedded systems is either ARM or proprietary Freescale, Renesas, you-name-it architecture. But BareMetal OS seems to be exclusively for 64-bit x86. It is also proud to not be gen
