Renters will increase the price knowing full well that people will double up. Also if the renters are ruthless they would directly tell you to have more people packed in an apartment to pay their price and if people are…
Opening up bit streams would be really great. I am still hoping that someday we have completely open source FPGA tools.
How long can the circus keep going? It might collapse at any moment yet I don't think anyone knows for sure. This statement is fundamental. It is very very hard to time the market. In fact there is a famous saying by…
Fountain pens. I have some fountain pens come down to me from my mother's student era.
As a person who bought these ads I think you would be the right person to answer some of my curiosity. Do people really click ads and buy? Is there data of the whole from click to the buy revenue? Are your products US…
The idea to write a tiny modular driver came to me because of need. Sometimes developers do not need a write and simply need to read a file. Sometimes they want a very minimal read and then would like to write. This…
I have been writing a FAT32 driver to understand the FAT32 file system. It is very exciting as this is my first time I am dabbling with file systems. I will be porting this to my baremetal firmware for the MINI2440 SBC.
Thanks! I also have a blog ( http://thesoulofamachine.blogspot.in/ ) where I go in detail explaining parts of the code of the various subsystems to get things up and running. I have developed without any costly JTAG…
I see a lot of people having problems with the BSP. Excuse me for the shameless plug but I am developing an open source baremetal firmware for the Samsung SoC S3C2440 ( https://github.com/mindentropy/s3c2440-mdk ) and…
Sometimes people use a RTOS in the SoC. Some people run baremetal OS or NoOS in these SoC's. I myself and developing a baremetal OS for the Samsung S3C2440 and I find it hard to get documents from Samsung. I have to…
It is mixed. On the one hand there are quite a bit of honest people and there are quite a lot of corrupt people. The problem is the amount of variables which are huge and how it has become a way of life.
Yes it is. Such smart people should be working on these things and should be encouraged. Of course his system is still a lot rough and a lot of work has to go into it but he is just one person doing a lot of thinking.…
I personally use xubuntu. What myztic meant was using "plain ubuntu" instead of alternatives like xubuntu, lubuntu or kubuntu. Xubuntu is medium light for me and is fast. Previously I had only fluxbox on Kubuntu for the…
Congrats geohot. Come up with a good development framework for people to build on and it would be awesome. This is good innovation and engineering. Like the article said it sure beats writing code to make people click…
No I don't. It is just an observation. Now in for e.g. India there are a lot of people going into engineering or medicine as a way out of poverty. So you are right but now it is the profession through which to get out…
>But if you come from a poor family, then sports is one of the ways to get out of poverty, because even if you can't go pro, there's still the chance of college athlete funding or becoming a coach for a school. This is…
I have seen that most of kids who have struggled in their childhood because of say low income from their parents or bad family have a kind of a fighting spirit. Most of the people who you see achieve greatness either…
This is the problem here. As an embedded developer where every cycle counts I have come up with the same question as the poster above why bother with such languages. If a switch processes packets at line rate with the…
xobs, What was your experience working with the CPU vendors to open up the ROM or atleast provide a method to by pass the ROM and use an external ROM?
You can always go for the Samsung S3C SoC which loads 4kB of code from NAND flash. Now if you ask me whether the loading is software in a certain boot rom internal to the chip or hardware logic I don't know. You can…
There are very good TI Cortex M3 and M4 Tiva Launchpad boards (for $12.99) and for the ultra low power applications the MSP432 cortex M4 launchpad boards (for $12.99) with very good documentation and support.
Apart from this there are other issues to consider when you have to go through different certifications required for different domains. When you have MCU's in automotive,industrial,medical and millitary (invasive…
Isn't USB data lines differential?
Free GCC tool chains are present for the TI MSP430, TI Tiva Series C (Cortex M4) and also TI Hercules (Cortex M3) series. Apart from that I have tried STM32F4 series with GCC tool chains. I have personally developed…
I too find myself in the same conundrum. People and contacts just disappear if I don't put effort in it. It is always me who have to follow up for some reason. How did you get over this?
