I am guessing because the version of Windows CE (the Dreamcast SDK version) didn't have the source to it; and for whatever reason they didn't want to find that source. Copyright reasons perhaps?
The 2650 was one of the first microprocessors on the market you could buy, it was shockingly simple to design, and had some dedicated I/O lines. Look up the reference schematic and compare to what a 6502 or Z80 needs.…
While not obvious from the article, it appears that they want something S3 like, but isn’t from Amazon, and possibly want to self host it. The article could be much more clear about the goals
Can you back that up? It supports `os_task_create()`, `ps`, `top`, and the default for `MAX_TASKS` is 8.
Question: Do you mean real time, meaning there is some kind of expectation of task switching time, nothing can stop other threads from executing, etc; or do you really mean embedded?
Help me understand: why does knowing the language matter? I can see why for contributing to it, though there are other ways to contribute than code. However to use it, why? Do you only use projects you can contribute to?
I disagree, it was a response to the article's title. I could have said it better, but it wasn't just a random rant
Personally I don’t care what it is written in. I care what the code does and how well it does it. Rust is a cool and interesting language that helps solve some problems, but it doesn’t make it immune from all. But that…
Well somewhere between a ZX80 and a ZX81, it had a better video system than either, but at the cost of dedicated video ram (IIRC)
I am curious, do we have any confirmation that the "AI hit piece" thing is real? It feels like everyone is just assuming it is, but it would be nice to see some confirmation. Additionally Geerling raises good points,…
And where did I say any of that
I am glad markdown is very reliable to you (and many people), and if you’re just talking about something with very light, formatting, then it can be. However, link have documents can be incredibly hard to read. I am…
You might not, it depends on your use case. However SQLite is very small and lightweight, and amazing for read heavy databases. Using SQLite lets you bypass a lot of setup and configuration; then adding something like…
Yet they didn’t get copyright extended again in the 27ish years after, and Mickey is in the public domain (well steamboat willy).
Because accessibility should be front of mind for all apps. We don’t want disabled people to be treated like an afterthought or only using specialty apps. Anyone can become disabled and need these features, either…
Not really, I should have acknowledged it, to be sure. I am just saying a lot of people put a lot of faith into geohot's musings/side projects/whathaveyou, that doesn't pay off.
I mostly think of when geohot wanted to make his own RISC-V core and cranked out some basic verilog. It was incomplete and barely commented, and never touched again. I suspect we are going to get a few blog posts of…
It’s been around since at least occam, maybe longer
Not just Chinese companies, Ti has done this forever with their Sitara SoCs. This is the chip in the beaglebone. The chip includes two PRUs which are microcontrollers that run at 200mhz and share memory with the rest of…
Help me understand your point better. How do you want the services to work? Is there some standard you are advocating for, or for them to mimic existing services, or what?
I meant >= he currently seems to think that sex with someone 14 is morally acceptable. He now believes that sex with a 12 year old isn’t. He doesn’t understand that there is a reason we say minors cannot legally consent…
The problem is that better is not an abstract measure. It is better at what, for what purpose, in what context? I like fossil in the abstract, but it isn’t integrated well into any of my tools; there is only one hosting…
Oof embarrassed I didn't proofread that, but I was saying "That is what the man is saying in that statement". Stallman is like Humpty Dumpty (""When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor…
If you look up his anti-glossary, the definition of child he uses is: > Children: Humans up to age 12 or 13 are children. After that, they become adolescents or teenagers. Let's resist the practice of infantilizing…
Do we need people to stand up and push back? Yes. Stallman? I would rather not. The man doesn’t hold influence outside of some of our community, and is toxic because of things he has said and done to the outside world.…
