After working for 20 years with weekly status, switching to daily status is a big change. It removes developer autonomy and responsibility. Instead of toughing it out and trying different ways to solve a problem, we report our status and

I have my own rule for headlines. You can almost universally swap out the word 'How' for 'That'. e.g. "That Going Back to Coding After 10 years Almost Crushed Me."

Why do people rush to differentiate, e.g, the diffs bt correlation and causation, but never question Occam's razor (I'm officially leading the charge to cease its capitalization), which isn't science, isn't a law, but me

i don't know the chips well in the two newer consoles this initial version comes with, but certainly the infamous SID/MOS 6581 has numerous variations. People have been slowly collecting recordings of and characterizing them. Th

I doubt it's overnight destruction of the business. It likely means selling some of their amortized equipment to buy different equipment. They've likely had notice for a long time. Especially if they participate in their gover

After a few decades in the biz I'm seeing things change. Almost all drivers these days are written. Embedded is more about integration. It's also interconnected with many web-based tools and operating systems.
