Lord Midnight Madness 1,543 December 26, 2018 Share December 26, 2018 Sorry @Vintjack Greasymane I fell asleep. It's been one of those days. I had bosses up my butt and everyone just seemed to be in a bad mood. 2 By @Fangirl Mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best thing one can do is to wait until they're over and keep the positivity as close to themselves as possible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not that very useful course, rather than a "fill the gap" thing. Maybe it is better taught to IT students. 11 hours ago, CypherHoof said: No, I think they just stopped posting in general (although before the WPCC there was also Totally Lyra's boop thread, and the ban/jail games...) Hmm. the banner changed again - that was sudden. So you say it was a temporary inflammation of the forum? Ask me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it is better taught to IT students. Possibly a bit basic for them. But then, given IoT and other convergences, I don't think ANY technological field can escape having to learn about computers these days. I did do a more "middle of the road" course though at college - focus was on industrial computing - electronic theory down to the jfet/mosfet level, practical circuit theory and design (we had to design and etch boards, then solder components to the pads), machine code programming and so forth. but we did do the high level coding too, and at the other end of the scale, turning components on a manual lathe or router station, then duplicating that in CNC. 39 minutes ago, Rixton said: So you say it was a temporary inflammation of the forum? Pretty much. I unfollowed it and started hanging in @Longhaul's bar instead, but that has always been quiet. 1 ᚾᛖᚹ ᛚᚢᚾᚨ ᚱᛖᛈᚢᛒᛚᛁᚴ - ᚦᛖ ᚠᚢᚾ ᚺᚨᚦ ᛒᛖᛖᚾ ᛞᛟᚢᛒᛚᛖᛞ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is pretty cool! I have some experience with bjts and mosfets, and middle to high level coding, however unfortunately many of my knowledge was acquired during playing with these stuffs at home, and not at school. I love to use arduino micro controllers, I also own a raspberry board too, that is currently is my NAS server, and soon will be given to monitoring purposes. My next target to learn is the stm32f103c8t6 chip, this is more powerful than the atmega328 one, and in parallel, going down to lower and lower level coding.

Their name is correct meaning "tiny", they are good for very small projects, carrying ~1-2 functions. On my 3D printer, the distance measurement between the nozzle and the print bed will be done with this chip. My friend calls them toilet light controllers, since their small memory. About FPGAs...I am not at that level yet to work with them, but you should definitely learn using that family, they are ultra fast. Ask me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
