  • Who better to urge it than someone who knows exactly what the alternative is?

  • Regular circuits: "What's that? You want to hack me together with a breadboard from 1963 and a hodgepodge of old telecom wire and misc parts? Sure, sounds great!"

    DSP circuits: "Being more than 2mm from the IC makes me feel icky :("

  • Not specifically with a DE15 (for that I'd just chop up an old VGA cable), but I work with a lot of proprietary connectors. Some of the connectors are scarce, and sometimes we just wire them manually if the work isn't too extensive.

  • As someone who works in R&D in software/electronics, I can say I do this kind of thing regularly.

  • Why have many monitor when few monitor do trick?

  • Does an animated face system monitor app exist?

  • That's an interesting idea, but may suffer from the all-too-familiar programmer art (that is, most programmers aren't great at art).

    In its simplest form, it probably wouldn't be difficult to use something like emojis to indicate state. Honestly wouldn't be that hard to code. After a quick search, I even found a guide on how to do almost exactly what you're looking for.

  • Dealing with YOLO Vibelord colleagues

    Jump

  • If your manager won't hear anything negative about Vibelord, polish up your resume. There's nothing you can do to change the culture of your team if the boss isn't on board with it.

    Not sure what kind of person your boss is, but if you want to try to win him over, try to figure out what might sway him. If he's technically illiterate, talk to him about best practices (like, I dunno, code reviews) and cite reliable sources and data if you think that would help. Avoid calling out Lord Vibington, the main thing is to put a picture into your boss's head of what this could/should look like. He might not realize that these issues are preventable.

    The goal here is to get your boss to take more ownership of the team's culture, and start insisting on preventative measures. Mr Viberator will either have to conform, or there will be increasing friction between him and the boss.

    Jump

  • When I brew coffee, I use half regular grounds and half decaf. There are some roasters that make half caf, but it's easy to mix it yourself.

    I'm in Ontario, I've been drinking Kicking Horse lately and it's decent.

  • What is something you dont care to understand or "get"?

    Jump

  • I tend to do the same thing. "Well if you didn't want a half hour introduction to color theory, why did you ask an unrelated question?"

    I... might have the tism...

  • Tips on dissecting vibe code

    Jump

  • Start by separating the files by namespace and class. Then, by method. Delete the first method, then the next, and so on. Then rewrite the code by hand as God intended.

  • In history we used to see fairies etc. But now we don't. Are we insane?

  • In addition to the poor treatment of autistic and other neurodivergent folks, note that there was a huge uptick in a lot of fantasy folk tales right around the same time people started using gas lamps in their homes.
