While we're taking things with a grain of salt. I'd like to point out that this poster (ArduinoGuy) only has posts defending arduino.org. I'm not saying they're wrong because of that, but I am saying that that is at leas

I built a sunrise alarm clock. It's just two ikea lamps, two lamp dimmer modules, and a SmartThings Hub. The lights start dimming-on at 6:37 every morning (30 minutes 0-100%). I do have my alarm on my phone set still, but I'm norm

I disagree. Now, let me start by saying I don't intend for this to be a suggestion for everyone in every situation, I just want to suggest that sometimes it can make things better. I left my job three months ago, but I had actually tri

I thought the only problem was with exit nodes? If you have both the client and the server within the tor network, doesn't that make things because then everything is always encrypted?

My first thought, they did the right thing. Just don't read more into that than what I said. Async network programming is hard. And while I think that tokio's examples could use a little bit of help on simplifying, clarifying, an

Just FYI, if you hit enter or just start typing your password the lock screen slides away. Or at least it does on Fedora, but I can't imagine that's anything customized.

You're the first person I've seen hold that phrase in a negative light, can you explain what you mean?

That's not a bad idea. The newest kobo reader actually has red LEDs (I assume) to fade to red at night: https://us.kobobooks.com/products/kobo-aura-one Hopefully amazon copies that feature for their next one.

Probably not in a list like this. If you're just getting started you want something where you can be productive fast. And I say this as someone who writes web backend code almost exclusively right now. The way that I see rust is as a l

I get where you're coming from and hadn't really thought on that aspect explicitly yet, but my first thought is that rather I'm missing half of the journey that I want to have. To torture a metaphor, I like hiking, my wife an

Why are people down voting this? I understand that there are people out there where their satisfaction with life happens to come from things outside of work. But, I'd hope that those people also would understand that there are people t

Fair enough. I guess it also depends on how far the projects actually get before they get canned. I assume part of my problem is that I was always working on my projects alone or nearly alone (from a technical contributor perspective), so c

I cared and cared enough to quit. Worked my last (and first real software) job for about 5 years and quit a month ago because of this kind of thing, at least in part. I was getting good at making the v1, but never learning how to really do

I think you're thinking of the FCC, not the FTC. Also, the FCC doesn't care about if your speakers make noise when they get hit with RF, they only really care that the speakers aren't emitting RF to interfere with the things

Howdy all, this is a small tool I put together that I thought could be helpful to others here. A few weeks ago, I was really inspired to make a desktop native client for Matrix.org chat. I decided to do it in rust, but then found that there

Submitted this mostly because I'm interested in other's thoughts on it. Right now I'm about 5 years into my career, but I feel like I've stalled out and am currently trying to figure out the most efficient way to advance

The shear amount of dumb coding challenges. I interviewed with a company recently where, after sending links to extensive amounts of open-source code, was asked to three different take-home-style tests of things like calculate the fewest nu

If there's anyone here with experience using both Rocket and Iron, would you be willing to share your thoughts on the differences between them? I've got an API server started in Iron, but I have to say the claims of productivity a

You would end up with a very large grey code if you tried to do that. You could solve that by gearing it down (or repeating the code) and count revolutions, but more likely these days you'd use something like a hall-effect angle-positi

If I wanted to make a presentation like that what tools would I need to use? That was way more engaging than a powerpoint presentation. It almost seems like an animated video that pauses itself rather than a slideshow.

Because it's about teaching, not about getting the best possible performance. JS based stuff is easy to get working, because it's just "install chrome, go to <webpage>".

This is a bit older, but I'm seeing exactly what the author is arguing against where I work. We're about to hit the release of our "MVP" after at least 6 months of work and countless expansions of scope and this article
