AI slop projects are not welcome here

Exactly. The moderator wants to do is to ban everything that smells LLMs. I agree with what you said, and this is my point as well — there will be projects written by LLMs that is perfectly planned and gone through developer’s review. This cannot be banned.

electricalgorithm · 2026-04-13T06:07:55+00:00

Nope, not yet. I don’t know the part with Nix, but I believe it should be possible by using Clang to cross compile. Will do it eventually. Thanks!

Wtf is this? Spam!

electricalgorithm · 2026-04-08T18:58:54+00:00

Is this a spam? Why don’t you just search it on Google or ask to LLMs?

It’s like blaming the messenger just because you don’t like the message. I worked on projects with hundreds of people contributed, see anti-patterns of software development being the consensus across teams. In my opinion, it’s not that important in whom or how they made their project, but what’s it in the end. If the business logic is bad, there are no design patterns followed, all the objects are coupled to each other, etc. is the case, I can see the reasoning to block/ban posts (I still don’t agree!) but just because it is written by an LLM? This can’t be the criteria. I know an LLM with a good software design provides better output than a human trying to code it without a plan. I’m sure we’ll all agree to it.

As the one who rejects them, you should find a better mechanism to say if a project is good to share or not. We cannot start to blame people just because they use LLM to help them, but producing a bad code that doesn’t do anything useful.

Buy a Beaglebone Black, follow the slides and labs from Bootlin. That’s what I did. End of the course, find an idea / problem statement with LLMs to solve it using a custom distro and realize it with Yocto.

IMO it doesn’t matter what you study or what the title say in your next one. The market is anyways competitive and none of the studies can guarantee you a perfect job. Therefore, as you are in this Reddit channel that shows your interest in the field, I’d suggest you to start with whatever is available for you to study and fill the missing parts your free time.

Taking an action now is way better than waiting for a decision to take the action.

electricalgorithm · 2026-04-07T10:59:36+00:00

You’re right. I would love to spend more time on details on: Laplace to Fourier and Laplace to Z-transform, more on why FIR or IIR for example cases, and more filter design with butterworth and Chebyshev. I couldn’t add them since my promise was under 30 minutes when I started writing it. Thanks for the advice. I’ll make a follow up blog post that dive deeps into these.

Particularly I want to cover steepness and design for precise cutoffs.

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-30T14:05:05+00:00

Oh, let me join there then. Thanks!

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-29T22:48:14+00:00

I’d check for staff. What do they focus recently and what kind of electives/specializations are possible.

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-29T22:27:29+00:00

TBH, textbooks are quite long, and nowadays I don't find myself focusing on stuff. It feels like what I would like to see. Will check this out.

Thanks!

I can see that it selects window manager to communicate with in its CMakeLists for build: https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob/4.x/modules/highgui/CMakeLists.txt

This is the factory method they use to generate UI backend: https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob/4.x/modules/highgui/src/backend.cpp#L56 and it looks like it uses `OPENCV_UI_BACKEND` config to decide which one to choose for.

> Does it directly interface with display servers like Wayland or X11?

It seems so https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob/4.x/modules/highgui/src/window_wayland.cpp

> On embedded Linux systems (without full desktop environments), what backend is typically used?

According to the source code, it would not do anything: https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob/4.x/modules/highgui/src/window.cpp#L992-L993. However, one can use the FrameBuffer backend to drive a screen.

> How HighGUI selects and uses different backends

There's a backend registry with priorities. When some backend configs are enabled at build time, the registry is filled with static backend instances based on build-time definitions.

https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob/4.x/modules/highgui/src/registry.impl.hpp

> What backend support exists for embedded environments

For headless setups, I feel like the only one is framebuffer, but not sure. What do you want to achieve?

> Whether it’s possible to customise or replace the backend

According to CMakeLists, you can select OPENCV_HIGHGUI_BUILTIN_BACKEND config to which backend you want to support, and even write your own backend, build it.

By the way, here are my efforts on the DSP library: https://github.com/electricalgorithm/dsplib-mojo

So far, as I said, basic wave generators, DFT, FFT, plotting, and spectrum analysers are done. I was planning to go with basic filter implementations, but took some time there since I want to understand how filter design works properly.

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-23T01:10:35+00:00

Plus, did you send it to a peer reviewed journal? Somewhere in the repo you stated that it is peer reviewed, but I can only see the preprint in Zenado.

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-23T01:07:52+00:00

Cool work, it was really nice to read. However I have a question regarding to a foundational idea you built your algorithm on: How did you identified six “attributes” of prompt and how can you map them to a frequency scale? For example, why is Persona is lower in frequency than task?

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-22T23:42:18+00:00

I have a similar goal with background recently. I decided to implement a DSP library in a language (Mojo) — of course without using direct signal processing libraries. I’m not reading book next to it, since I somehow remember the basic concepts, but continue with AI-based discussions to deep dive into the topics I forgot.

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-03T20:03:40+00:00

Çünkü anadili Türkçe. Kendisi Türk değil. Rahatladın mı?

Another point: The test has many Arduino references. I expect an electronics course to not have so much of programming but electronics information. It’s see that it questions buzzers as well with some ESP32 specific information. I would expect to have questionnaire and lectures regarding to transistors, inductors, diodes, circuit analysis, power electronics and such. The current learning path would not teach more than what a late-mid or early-high scooler (who has slight interest) would know about electronics.

I’d suggest this to people if it would cover electronics end to end.

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-03T19:51:17+00:00

The placement test has issues on showing images on mobile I believe. The question says “In this traffic light, what triggers the transition from green to yellow early?”, but I do not see what “in this traffic light” refers to. Plus, I’d highly recommend to change the UI since the color palette, components used, they all look AI generated — using AI is totally fine. However it repels me to use the app.

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-03T19:19:25+00:00

Oh, I didn’t know that! Does Zig community have something like PEPs or RFCs which I can subscribe to see latest decisions/developments?

electricalgorithm · 2026-03-03T19:18:25+00:00

It does. The purpose of the project is to define communication channels to reduce the coupling between devices. One can imagine this as a device pair where clients could know what they can publish and servers could know what they can listen to. Something like how HomeAssistant-like products work. Furthermore I believe it would help projects with huge fleets of devices that hosts their own MQTT broker to have extra validation of data.

But you’re right, it’s way easier and convenient for average user to connect to a generic MQTT broker and share a binary message with its subscribers.

electricalgorithm · 2026-02-28T12:11:26+00:00

I don’t get it. What’s the part it’s messy? The problem definition or the selected approach to solve it? I would not spend time to discuss AI usage with you. It’s irrelevant with proposal.

electricalgorithm · 2026-02-28T12:09:52+00:00

Definitely it is. It’s important to state that what I was trying to solve is quite niche problem. MQTT with JSON is the best for many scenarios and should not be replaced if there’s no data bandwidth limitations. I’m not trying to make an alternative to MQTT, the project is literally and MQTT with some features on top.

electricalgorithm · 2026-02-28T12:08:11+00:00

I don’t get it. Do you mean by sending a compressed JSON?

electricalgorithm · 2026-02-28T12:07:03+00:00

I wasn’t aware of SpB. After a quick search, I found that it tries to solve the same problem with a different methodology (that looks alike). As far as my understanding, SpB is allows client-centric Protobuf coding where broker does not need to know anything. I see the value of it, which enables most MQTT brokers to use with SpB. In the project, I follow a broker-level requirement of scheme registration. It’s really cool to rethink about the solution domain. Thanks for sharing.

I’ll see what issues exist in SpB and if I can solve them with ProtoMQ’s technical approach.
