- that's the part that made me want to post this article here :)
was thinking about how i've just replaced one of my usb chargers with one of those gan devices, but it's probably not going to last as long as a piece of iron with some copper wire wrapped around it

- i want to mix this with https://github.com/LingDong-/shan-shui-inf to make a real-life infinitely scrolling procedural animation
- interesting, specifically I'm on a host Mac and trying to use the ESP IDF dev containers in VSCode (https://docs.espressif.com/projects/vscode-esp-idf-extension...)
will try again with sockets/TCP, thought i hit a roadblock after reading https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/5263#issuecomment-7...
- is there a way to forward usb/serial ports from my local machine to the dev container?
maintaining consistent firmware development environments using containers is a great idea, and current solutions involving proxying the compiled binary work well for flashing quickly, but switching back and forth between UART and Serial Debug is always more convenient when the IDE can handle it all

i think it might be related to the same breathing exercises some people do to control the vagus nerve, with the added help of some mild stimulants

slow breathe in (through some restrictor), small hold, then steady release

- if i'm already typing, it's too late to interrupt my flow
the preceding minutes trawling logs, filling my head with events, and connecting all the dots is the unstable part i need to keep in my head
- > Id quit the moment I realized what my job was about
there's a scene in Arrested Development where Buster believes he's playing a airplane simulator video game, when in reality he was piloting drones for the Air Force the whole time
- Are there any writeups of the pinout or hopefully the protocol?
I made a converter once for a Sun keyboard before https://www.pjrc.com/sun-type-s-keyboard-retrofit/ / https://github.com/jareklupinski/sun2usb
- time to open the Box of Faith?
- > it's something you tend to hear before a project is taken down
the projects i've seen taken down seem to consistently have some sort of financial component, though sometimes it's been because the company that owns the copyright is about to release a remake themselves
- > just thinking about how lawyers would go about this
don't do their job for them for free :)
- > Game hackers have folklore-esque beliefs about the legality of things like this that aren't true
as long as no one is trying to make money / sell ads / patreon lock the results, they should be fine; it's probably difficult for lawyers to claim monetary damages if no one is making money
made me think of how sometimes i use ide "code folding" features to see just the first lines of a series of easily collapsable lists of text blocks
