eschaton posted:someone needs to combine message queues with document databases with blockchains um the implementation doesn't matter or the technical skills, it's if you know the right people to ask for money then it goes a little something like slide 1. the problem a bunch of stuff on one side is talking to a bunch of stuff, but it is a mess, oh no and not everything talks to everything else slide 2. the dream now they all talk to one point, represented as a cloud slide 3. the pitch same as slide 2, but the startup logo is on the cloud, and you explain why you have some magic ingredient that your competitors don't have, and maybe some whacky sub-plot that won't work long term but might attract a bunch of press and attention your way and the buyouts aren't that much unless you're a high-status company in the first place, companies will pay more for user base, maybe adoption is harder than hiring so like slide 1: people need to get from place to place but take all of these different things slide 2: what if they could take one thing for every journey, ad-hoc slide 3: uber logo slide 1: developers struggle to put software into production, and there is a lot of amazon lock in slide 2: what if they could use one tool to handle ci, cd and ensure local and production environments run the same, and maybe not use amazon slide 3: docker logo you aren't selling investors a technology, you're selling them a market you plan to control you sell the technology to tech journalists

apple 2 high resolution graphics are loving bizarre thanks to woz being a mad genius here's the bitmap memory layout  a byte defines 3.5 pixels. the high bit selects one of two "palettes" by delaying the pixel signal by half a pixel clock, changing the phase of the NTSC signal so that the monitor will show different colors. oh and to make things even more complicated, bits 6-0 of the pixel are drawn in reverse order. oh god how am i going to emulate this

did someone from this thread link me to http://emulator101.com/ ? it took me about three days but I finally got the diagnostic binary to pass. if you want to learn C and low-level systems at the same time, you could do worse than bodging together a big ol' spaghetti-code 8080 emulator and making it run a binary compiled from assembly code written in 1980

Applesoft BASIC was adapted from Microsoft’s source code via a 110 baud teletype link to a computer center... who promptly erased all their backups due to equipment failure so they had to start over on an IMSAI that one of the employees brought from home

fritz posted:ive been having to use bazel to build tensorflow this week and idk why they cant just use cmake like adults because cmake is terrible actually I haven't used cmake in forever, but isn't it only for compiling c++? bazel lets you use the same build system for generating code from your IDL, or fetching a dependency from github, or your stupid one-off python script and it's all totally reproducible no matter what machine / os you're running the build on / what packages you have installed etc. there's certainly other build systems like it, but I've never had issues with bazel so I've seen no reason to switch.

also probably some sort of newlib because you'll need to write your own linker script and assembly-language CRT otherwise alternatively use a board with a loving Cortex-M on it because come the gently caress on

You shouldn't have to gently caress around with AVR ever, period. It has colored pointers so you have to use nonstandard C to program it. Microchip bought Atmel then jacked all their prices so it isn't even cost competitive with Cortex-M any more. Cortex-M is literally always the superior choice in all circumstances except for legacy designs. Look, here's an ARM linker script totally free of charge: https://paste.jvnv.net/view/0PUCV now get on with your life.

aspx to mvc conversion status: after an initial burst of inspiration the offshore team have reverted back to cramming poo poo into hidden form fields as a string then parsing them by reading the request data manually. some of these fields contained multiple objects l separated by pipes to try and pass a collection because just googling "mvc passing a dynamic list" or just copying the implementation I had already put together was too hard or something idk. time for another two hour "this is what the M in Mvc stands for webex" I think also raw javascript all over the place in tyool 2017, not even jquery
