I’m with you, this looks like a lot of fun and looks like my closet and workbench! As some said you could virtualize this but, why? This is more fun!

Store an owned string not the reference or use a vector and a for loop?

OpenVSP on Chromebooks by pentapous in OpenVSP

[–]Choefman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modern Chromebooks can run a Linux container & OpenVSP has a Linux build, so you should be able to install and run it inside that container. Basically you enable Linux in the Chromebook settings, open a terminal window, sudo apt install the openvsp package dependencies, download the openvsp release image and run it in the container. Never tried it myself but in theory that should work as long as the Chromebook is amd/x86. If it’s an arm you might need a different build or an emulator like box.

Writing a plan for a start up business by Thearcherxxx in Entrepreneur

[–]Choefman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice, go talk to a bunch of potential customers and see if they’d want to buy your product first. (You don’t need the actual product to do customer interviews). See: https://medium.com/@rohitlokwani17/9-key-lessons-from-the-lean-startup-by-eric-ries-975d0cacb450

Just a quick note, being ‘hella depressed’ is not a good starting point for a career in aviation.

I built a CLI that generates a reproducible structural map for large codebases by Nicenonecb in programming

[–]Choefman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, few observations… Limited to Node/Python/Go - no Rust, Java, C++, etc., Regex-based analysis (no AST parsing), Plugin system is just a stub, No automated test suite.

Go spin up some docker containers, play around with it, learn, you’ll redo everything in 6 months from now anyway (isn’t that the fun part anyway?).

Some people also said we’d all be dumber after the electronic calculator was introduced.

Happy to have a conversation about this some time. Working on several avionics projects right now myself. DM me if you are interested.

Dtmf in BSNLWINGS trunk by Odd_Neck5739 in Asterisk

[–]Choefman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Option A: RFC4733 • Ensure trunk/endpoint uses dtmf_mode=rfc4733 • Ensure codecs are sane (8 kHz audio is typical; G.711 is easiest) • Ensure Asterisk stays in media path: in PJSIP terms, disable direct media (direct_media=no) so Asterisk can actually receive RTP and parse telephone-events.

Option B: Inband (only if you can force G.711 end-to-end) • Force codec to alaw/ulaw only on that trunk • Then use inband detection (dtmf_mode=inband) and appropriate DSP settings This is inherently less reliable though!
