Tumblr is still the best place to be for many people - even despite all those flaws. For many, there is no better "somewhere else" people can "just" move to.

Then make sure developers are deeply aware of all the concerns you listed. A large part of why developers think they are the center of the world is because they are meticulously isolated from said world. This is exactly what the article add

I've once started a small fire. I had a software-controlled voltage regulator connected to the printer port (it was for a high-voltage programmer for 8051 chips) and I was writing a Linux driver for it. I accidentally put the chip in b

We're using in a project (through Nerves framework) and slowly walking away from it. Hiring is the biggest hurdle; our product is simple enough that we can just have a bunch of .NET backend developers rewrite everything in Elixir. Hiri

"Starting to have consequences"? The situation is absolutely dire. Shelves are empty; common parts like DC/DC converters have lead times of 52 weeks. Maybe big companies who can afford to hoard parts are fine... the small one

I am the author of the STM32F1 FPB security bypass exploit. Seeing this happen again, with another manufacturer, but this time with undocumented silicon, is just appalling. They will never learn. At least NXP replied to the email... I never

From the electronics designer perspective: this sounds very much like resetting the KBC by simply forcing any and all capacitors around it to discharge. KBC is a microcontroller, with its own firmware, and it 100% can lock up.

Violin at ripe old age of 25. The key for me was enjoyment... playing with others, picking the kind of music I vibe with, not bothering with exercises that are devoid of emotion and joy. I slapped frets on my violin to make the learning cur

Playing the game in Polish feels weird... as if the dialogue was originally written in English and then hastily translated. It's nowhere close to the first-class feeling of Polish version of TW3.

DMI information is supplied by BIOS - and those can be very, very wrong. More often than not the only DMI/ACPI information correctness the manufacturer cares about is "Windows doesn't complain".

I've talked to Johannes Obermaier in the past... very nice guy. It's not their first bypass, and hopefully not the last either. PS. I actually have yet another STM32F1 RDP bypass in my archive, waiting to be published. It used a t

Removing the silk also de-tunes the antenna. It's cheaper to leave it there than to remove it and re-tune.

The author purposely misleads the reader by doing syntax highlighting wrong. A trigraph-aware editor would keep the third line green.

I'm soldering a a LoRA-based board right now. During design process we calculated the power budget and found out the power consumption is so absurdly low the main factor is battery shelf life. We live in the future.

This theory doesn't stand in face of science. However: some autistic people have food allergies and comorbid metabolic problems; addressing those will usually alleviate suffering-caused problematic behaviors, and thus make communicati

The reality of seeking diagnosis as an adult is that you get endlessly dismissed. I've been told I can't possibly be autistic because I can make eye contact, can talk, drive a car, or get to the appointment by myself. I've be

It's an unfortunate stereotype. ADHD has loose subtypes of "mostly hyperactive" and "mostly attention deficient"; and autism spectrum consists of introverts and extroverts just as much as the general population.

I've been there; the irony is that the resource you're looking for is people. Find & join your local autistic community (the actually autistic people, not the moms or professionals); they know where to get a diagnosis. It&#x27

Side note: executive functioning is greatly impaired by stress, anxiety, lack of sleep, depression, etc. Those are very common in autistic people (due to lack of support and an unfriendly environment, not because of autism itself), making t

Many compilers are stuck in C99 or C89 or even earlier. There are other worlds besides gcc, clang and msvc.
