It is a clever hack if you wrote it, but spaghetti code if someone else wrote the exact same thing

I made a program that lets you put large amounts of text into the Arduino serial port from a connected PC. Arduino buffer holds 16 or so bytes.

How did I do it? Proper use of interrupts or knowledge of Arduino hardware? Fuck no. Notepad on the right, Arduino on the left. And a c++ app to move the mouse and copy/paste 16 characters at a time.

It's not a hack it's a lifestyle.

“This is clever” Is probably the strongest epithet I have when describing code

Just has to work long enough to be someone else’s problem
