Sorry, what is CSD? I can't find any reference to this acronym.

For Linux there is Pinta, which is a very similar UI to pdn. It works well enough much of the time but I've found it way more unstable than pdn (and without the plugin ecosystem).

Funny, the first time I read about uxn I went down almost the same rabbit-hole and was investigating local used sailboat prices within an hour.

"INI" is not a specification. All INI parsers are slightly different, such that people refer to any file with [Section] Key = Value Format as "INI" or INI-like, including the xdg format.

It was because of weight constraints. Spirit and Opportunity weighed 185 kg, while Curiosity and Preseverance both weighed around 1000kg. At that weight airbags large enough to cushion down the payload sufficiently would weigh too much. Jus

The latest dotnet plays reasonably well with Linux and supports latest framework and language version.

This is one of my big frustrations with the embedded rust ecosystem (not a problem with the language IMO). They are so hell-bent on taking the typestate pattern and various abstractions to their extreme to prevent you from ever doing anythi

Maybe thinking of Spirit and Opportunity rovers which had a truncated tetrahedron shape of airbags (kinda) and unfolded to the upright position? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_Exploration_Rover

Sure, the US has never done _anything_ that violates expectations about good and evil.

Back in my day you would do for (size_t i = 0; i < -10; i++) { panic } And it would panic 18446744073709551606 times.

No so, even if VCC and GND are on opposite ends of the TRRS, they will pass by eachother as the cable is unplugged.

Think about unplugging from the side thats _delivering_ the power. As you pull it out, the GND (which is further in and needs to travel out as it's unplugged) will contact the live VCC. Even from the power consumer side, there is a cha

While it is quite popular, TRRS is one of the worst connectors possible for a power rail (eg usb VBUS) because it all but guarantees that VBUS will be shorted to ground if you ever accidentally hot-plug it.

Aside from video games, another place you commonly see pie menues is in 3D CAD software (Blender, Inventor, I think SolidWorks has one?). I guess it's because these programs are inherently more mouse-reliant than other software.

You mean RTTI instead of RAII, right? Google definitely uses RAII.

There's a difference between OS core programs and third party apps though.

What about baremetal embedded system code where there is no concept of a 'crash'? Sure you can emit a trap instruction/bus fault/etc, but what to emit for the trap handler code?

In think they just mean "on-chip/integrated DAC peripheral" when they say DAC (which is what a lot of hobbyists/non EE folk think of from the term). The article's just trying to say you don't need one for an au

In theory, correctly filtered PWM or PDM at a correct modulation rate is identical to the original audio (nyquist-shannon). In practice the square waves produced have so much harmonic content that you need a good filter (like the active opa
