   Take a look at Adam Dunkels' lwIP and uIP - http://dunkels.com/adam/software.html . Also Jeremy Bentham's TCP/IP Lean: Web Servers for Embedded Systems is pretty good.

   Any good books that you would recommend on "Hardware Security"? I understand it is a broad field but would like to start somewhere.

   Opportunity loss. I came across the phrase "increase your surface area of luck" somewhere and it is relevant here. I am guilty of the same.

    That is not wrong at all, You use the language features which best suits the problem and/or you are most familiar with.

    This is the usp of C++, it is a set of languages which can be combined as needed depending upon problem requirements (aka Multi-Paradigm). I personally always start with a subset and only add features as needed. Two old books which i foun

    Right, this is why i never understood why people always harped on casts in C. Small price to pay for clarifying intent.

    The horrors committed by the British Empire are sadly under-reported and not well taught, it has been "Whitewashed". They have not been held accountable nor forced to pay reparations till date. In particular; the devastation wroug

    Very valid questions to which you are not going to get any reasonable answers. It is more a power play by the "Management" rather than satisfying any actual need. While some amount of management and issue/time tracking is nec

    >It’s the same thing with code reviews. I make a distinction between issues of opinion vs issues of correctness. Good way of putting it. Too often code reviews devolve into nit-picking and bickering.

    This is an illuminating viewpoint. I came to Assembly from HLLs and had often wondered why i found writing assembly code so alien and difficult (in spite of understanding Computer Architecture). I was restricting myself by looking at it onl

    Whether we like it or not, the narrative has already become about China. That is the reality. Geopolitics, Military brinkmanship, Economic realities all are at play here. In spite of all this muddying, our Scientists/Investigators need

    Thank you for putting it so clearly! It is disingenuous to claim to care about Science while willfully ignoring the biases inherent in the narrative of presentation.

    You make a very good point (and thanks for the links). However i would not let China off the hook until we have figured out exactly what happened. If nobody is held "accountable" (for a certain definition of this word) it is bound
