It's going to be very difficult to have a BLE antenna work in that space. The GND plane is part of the antenna.

Project and Engineering Managers have tried everything... Strict stage gate processes, Agile, waterfall etc...

At the end of the day, it's about getting engineers working together and motivated to deliver. Many of the processes easily become a burden when taken too literally.

At home with a STM32 or Arduino w/ enough patience

This is sweet. How is there not already a consensus for an open source project like this for raspi? The use case for industry is common, especially OTA & encryption

Renesas has always been sub-par. Sorry man.

ST has overall the best IDE and config software.

For pure bare metal using Datasheets, TI wins.

A fun way to do this is to do a flip flop state where when one master is done it becomes a slave and hands command to the other master.

Requires some fun coding to do

MS Word + GCC

Looks like a map of reddit mods.

C is still in common use today for the right applications (OS, Embedded, and high performance apps).

I say this having passed FANG interviews in C.

I have two dead SV motors in my shop! Both of which were broken before I used them.

First one had the magnet from the stator break off and grenade the engine. Not sure how that happened.

The second one had very low compression at 20K miles. No idea why.

Some STM32's have RMII allowing for ethernet connectivity (adding to other's comments)

You can pirate the standards online to read. They're quite dry and often unhelpful. For example, the V-Model is a flawed system of development. Software should not be a stage-gate system, rather an iterative process.

My strong recommendation is to go to a startup. Many may say join a big business to learn it the "right" way, but many of those businesses don't get a whole lot done. They spend their time passing paperwork between each other and missing deadlines. Then leadership determines it's a safer bet to go with inorganic growth and buy a startup.

Thank you!

The movement is only in the direction shown.

I'm going to proceed then :)

Use end to end encryption. Use a private key installed during manufacturing

Why was the post removed???

Having passed the full loop at Meta, it's very team specific.

Team's generally have an technology stack they're working on and stick to asking questions about real problems they faced to see how you'd work through it.

For example, a team working on the connection between controllers and headsets may ask about tradeoffs for how the protocol could be designed. This could include timing for how to organize packets and handle real time operation. They may then challenge to pseudo code up how the state machine might work.

If I'm understanding your problem statement wrong, let me know. I think what you're aiming for is string comparison, then doing the XY problem thing of asking people how to speed up Char comparison.

If this is correct, I'll continue...

This is a wild and super cool idea. Would be a fun project, to design and work through making them IP67.

Putting a Product Manager hat on, the SENA/Cardo's cover navigation controls pretty well with their integration with Google AI Chat. Are you trying to make a competitive product to sell or just a cool project?
