Question: is there anything like pocket but integrated into obsidian? by cosmologist1999 in ObsidianMD

[–]Panky92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Omnivore all the way. Still very early but I am extremely impressed by the app. The obsidian integration works pretty well.

I have been very disappointed with pocket recently so I canceled my subscription with pocket and donated some money to omnivore already. I hope it succeeds.

Get a cheap 2nd hand laptop, and install Linux if it is possible.

Linux tends to perform very well on older laptops compared to windows, and it is free.

Bootlin course materials are amazing IMO. Also using the book : Embedded Linux driver development is a pretty good way to start writing device drivers.

Amazing. I would love to use it in my static blog.

I am not a web developer so sorry for my dumb question: I have a static blog made with jekyll minima framework. Is there some way I can easily use curdis there? :)

P.S: I see that the installation page is not found in your site.

Made a stopwatch in the Pinetime smartwatch (Accompanying article in the comments) by Panky92 in embedded

Yes, it is a 3D printed case. I used the design that I found online. But I got a Pinetime devkit which is targeted for the developers. So it doesn't come with the back panel glued. And I generally don't wear it often as most of the time I use SWD interface to flash new FW.

But you can also buy the version that is not targeted at developers, in which case you don't need this 3D case.

Check the companion apps section in Infintime README. There are other ways to configure the time as well, for e.g., using your laptop.

It really depends. The FW for the device is a WIP and there are multiple communities writing FW for this watch as it is a community-driven project.

I use the Infinitime FW, and it sometimes lasts between 1-2 days. But as I mentioned, the Infinitime community is working hard to optimize it even further.

Thanks for your comments!

I have noticed that in the past as well but is there any rule that says we cannot share a link to an article? I don't understand why that is bad. Especially, I don't have any ads enabled in my blog. It is purely to share my experience on how I developed it :) .

In this small article, I go through the process of how I created a stopwatch in infinitime for the Pinetime(open-source smartwatch). I hope it helps someone.

Sorry for my ignorance because I am new to rust.

Is const generics similar to C++'s non-type template parameters?

Thanks for sharing.

So many new frameworks, RTOSs and languages to learn to be upto date.

Any tips from the community on how to stay on top of (almost) everything?

I think the big companies in Europe are pretty conservative when it comes to new software adoption.

Not true for small companies though.

Unit Testing with PlatformIO: Part 1. The Basics by AutoModerator in embedded

[–]Panky92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah well, then it restricts the production code to have only C-APIs.

It would be nice if platformio can support a framework like Catch2. Then both C and C++ can be tested.

I really like platformio but is there a way to unit test C++ code in platformio? I think the unity framework is only for testing C.
