I am ALL for #AI and #Claude and #GPT, etc. I do however, in my free time outside of work, school and creating STEM tutorials to help the next generation, believe that spending time in pure #Assembler in a bare-metal #Embedded #microcontroller will help you understand #Computer #Science in a way that can help you drive the future in #technology. I have and will continue to post pure Assembler drivers to help others achieve this utilizing #Arduino and #STM32 products.

Ok, starting a new thread cuz the last one is old. Since my 286 CPU appears to be dead, I figured while I wait on my next order of 80C286 chips from eBay I thought I'd work on the 386EX board.

Here's where we're at, with the board stripped of components and headers soldered on.

"The irony of storing EEPROM writer-counts in EEPROM memory."

CN: Harsh words about #vibecoding and #ai because C++ can do pretty nasty things:

#Arduino Boards have this thing called EEPROM memory, which is limited - we're talking around 100,000 write cycles before it just gives up. And if you're storing a counter with your actual data, that's basically halving the amount of memory-writes you can play with. Now, I know some AI models (*cough*, certain open, or not open, or seemingly open, ... large language models, *cough*) might be trying to store a value and its counter in EEPROM every half second or so: Your memory will be toast in about 7 hours of runtime, and anything that relies on EEPROM will just... stop working. Not exactly the most ideal situation, right?

If you need to rely on AI generated code, please try to review and compare it with another AI (model). I can recommend Codestral by Mistral, (test it here: https://chat.mistral.ai/) or take a look at this list: https://github.com/openbestof/awesome-ai . In VS Code (Copilot) Claude is decent in spotting errors.

A good start for #prompting to spot issues is "create a list of how this code works and give me a side-by-side with best practices". "explain this code step by step and give me hints how to improve it". However, it's important to approach *ANY* AI with a healthy dose of skepticism and their outputs should not be taken as gospel truth.

@rotopenguin true! 🤣 I did just double-check and it’s an old Acer c720 with *2GB* RAM, I mis-remembered.

I wouldn’t recommend more than a couple tabs, but it is still quite serviceable. I can even run Google apps in browser for light productivity. (Not my preference but our local Cub Scout pack uses Google for all our docs.)

Otherwise it’s still great for kids apps like the Tux series and tinkering stuff like #arduino IDE, #fritzing etc.

Bed thermostat is ready for its first full test! Since my last post I've shortened it so the vacuum doesn't bang into the fan, and added a flexible aluminium wire with a temperature sensor mount.

Tonight I set it to trigger at 27C and see how that works! No real understanding of what a good feet temperature is so this next bit is going to be trial and error.
