Just judging by your karma you are not new to software development. So how do you imagine it? Your installation is a point in time, there are sometimes refactorings which need to be done, version of library which fixes the security hole dep

What do you mean? You need one level shifter per IO pin. You can get something like TXS0108E for e.g,, that's 8 pins and it will cost you less than $1. It can do millions of signals per second, but if you don't care about speed si
