Teensy 4.1 uses an imxrt MCU - a crossover chip that is considerably fast. The ESP32 is slow in comparison, more aligned with IoT applications than realtime processing.

This battle has been happening for a better part of a decade and won’t seem to go away. Every time it’s defeated it seems to pop back up.

100K is easy to break as a freelancer. You'll obviously have more things to consider - multiple clients, accounting, legal and potential downtime, but its totally doable.

I think embedded could actually be a good discipline to work as a freelancer, most IoT products usually have a more rigid and defined development cycle than web platforms.

S in the acronym IoT stands for security

Australians are able to fund their retirement with it, why wouldn’t Germans be able?

The main advantage that it works with both a growing population, but also a shrinking one

The solution to the encumbered pension fund is to transition to privately run retirement schemes like the superannuation scheme of Australia.

The problem with Germany today is that the social state is archaic and has not been updated for the modern world. Unsurprising when the government still uses fax and snail mail for all communication.

This of course does not fix declining populations as a whole, but all advanced economies go through population decline almost like a rite of passage now. Unless growth is maintained, the system shrinks. Ultimately politicians and economists are more concerned with this over any other social ramifications of bringing migrants into the country. Obviously a balance needs to be struck, but Germany doesn't seem to be good at moderate and effective policy, e.g swinging from being a haven for refugees to now wanting to initiate mass deportations

> The justices, led by departing Chief Justice Esther Hayut, argued that the standard of reasonableness was a key tool for judges to protect against arbitrary government overreach, particularly in Israel, which lacks a formal constitution.

Without the underlying framework of protections to protect democracy against populism or malignant leadership the democracy would devolve. There needs to be protections in so that the government does not erode fundamental structures.

The language that Netanyahu uses in response to this ruling, in my opinion, is quite telling.

It’s really incredible how YouTube shapes the zeitgeist today. Hype cycles and their “movements” should be avoided like the plague.

At the end of the day if you want to gamble, buy a lottery ticket, then at least you are being honest with yourself.

It takes tremendous effort launching products that have integrity, and its something that should be respected, the journey is what its all about.

I don't think efficiency is synonymous with frontend development. Words that come to mind - technical debt, framework lock in and dependency hell. Just to name a few.

DMA, because the buffer can be linked to a designated RAM section, and it needs to be declared as a static mutable.

There would be many examples when code is running at lower levels with no OS abstraction

All embedded applications and libraries can be declared with no_std, removing the std dependency and heap allocation.

Shared libraries are also possible.

Its really had a significant impact on my usage. Its laggy and incorrectly interprets events or even worse wont register them at all - such a fundamental aspect of using the device im not sure how they fuck up testing these releases. Latest iOS on iPhone 12 Mini.

I enjoyed this one too. I remember reading about the NOP sled and it blowing my mind

> Most things "just work"

I find it pretty hilarious that in 2023 this can still be a selling point.

Don't get me wrong I ran arch on a thinkpad for a long time so I can appreciate the statement, but now I just use a macbook and get my work done
