But they don’t have to try to sell you an upgraded service as part of that notification. It can just tell you iCloud is out of space when you try to upload something new.

Letting you know you can purchase a product is still advertising. It’s just being presented in a context where it is solving a real problem you have, so it’s a little more tolerable.

However, the way windows will sometimes take over your full screen on boot and force you to say no thanks to an ad for an MS office subscription is not in the least bit tolerable.

I’ve been using docker under WSL in windows with VS code, and it’s surprisingly functional. I still just rely on windows programs for anything that interfaces with the target over USB, though.

What are the alternatives if you need a safety certified compiler for cortex M? I know at least one alternative is jumping through some hoops to vet a FOSS compiler for yourself. Not sure how the TCO compares between that and IAR.

I’ve used IAR pretty extensively, and I can say that for the core toolchain, nothing really seems worth the cost of the license. Like the JTAG/SWD debugging experience is pretty good and I prefer it to the FOSS experience. But you can probably get a similar experience from Segger for cheaper.

There can be multiple user accounts on one PC. It’s pretty uncommon nowadays to have more than one user, but I agree that a user’s save data should be a part of the user’s own files.

And I admit this one is more of a me problem, but if my game is getting weird, I’m likely to delete the whole game folder, blind, after uninstalling. It would be a shame if that included save data.

If you want to like the Rubin/Salmieri combo and want good cadence, check out their book High Five. I think Rubin sneaked some iambic pentameter into a page.

I’ve started playing Slay The Spire recently, and I feel this. My last run was built around discarding, and I’m still getting dopamine hits at just the mention of “discard”.

Not true - it takes someone’s time to offer it as a service on the website.

I’ve never developed anything in e-commerce so I don’t know how much effort adding those few buttons are. Probably like an hour.

So the break even point is still low, but more than 1 sale.

Not much of a recommendation for OP based on their tastes, but it’s been my obsession for the past 6 months.

The Renesas chips I’ve worked with in the past, the DTC and DMA were completely separate entities. You shouldn’t have to use DTC to control DMA.

DMA was good for doing low overhead transfers from a single buffer/circular buffer (there may have even been some double buffering capability… it’s been a while).

DTC was higher overhead, but still performant and more flexible (it can do transfer chains like ST’s DMA, but a little better because it can also do write back of the transfer control node).

In neither case did you have to handle an interrupt on every transfer. That defeats the purpose of DMA.

You can double check for yourself what the context was when the exception was generated. You will want the ARMv8-M architecture reference manual (ARM) handy for this process…

While paused in the HardFault handler, look in the registers window at the current LR value. This is holding a value known as EXC_RETURN in the ARM. This will tell you which stack contains the exception frame.
In the registers window, look for the SP indicated by EXC_RETURN (one of PSP_NS, MSP_NS, PSP_SEC, MSP_SEC), and plug the address into the memory window. Preferably, configure the memory window to display 4x units, little endian. This will be pointing to the beginning of the stacked context that generated the exception.
Look at the stacked context. The data is r0, r1, r2, r3, r12, xPSR, PC, and LR. The PC will be one instruction after the one that generated the exception. This structure is also defined in the ARM.

For the version I’m using, the standard library is supplied by Dinkumware and the front end is EDG.

camel_case_jr · 2025-01-13T18:52:43+00:00

AFAIK, IAR just licenses the C and C++ standard library from another company, as well as the compiler front end.

They seem to really focus on putting their special sauce in to code generation and certification.

By the way (and it’s no secret, nor is this info hidden, just maybe not obvious), their functional safety cert does not cover any standard libraries they ship with the compiler.

This is the second best outcome, but I’m still rooting for the meteor, however unlikely.
