🔥 Ah, the age-old question of what to do when code is as cheap as instant noodles 🍜. Apparently, the solution is a "running list of tips" that promise to be as invigorating as watching paint dry on a Sunday afternoon. 🤖 But hey, at least you'll be ready for the "deeply weird" future of agentic coding! 😂

Kwa nini uache #programmer mashine iwe na akili ku kuliko wewe mtumiaji😭!
Elewa kinachoendelea unapofanya kazi! Jipende, jijenge na maarifa, ujuzi, #InnerWealth utajiri wako wa ndani!

You can beat the binary search

We sometimes have to look for a value in a sorted array. The simplest algorithm consists in just going through the values one by one, until we encounter the value, or exhaust the array. We sometimes call this algorithm a linear search. In C++, you can get the desired effect with the std::find function. For … Continue reading You can beat the binary search

Familiarize with #EEPROM's read, write, how where to identify data! Compare raw, with f*kt data, cram #howitsdone, #HapaUjanjaTu, it's not a "one size fits all" algorithm🫣!

#Programming #electronics relies on #EEPROM, playing with low-level hexadecimal (hex) data to store configuration settings, calibrations, etc🤷‍♂️!

Don't be scared, the ease to edit hex digits comes down to how they function magic for binary data! #HapaUjanjatu🤷‍♂️, NOT the sh*t of higher-level languages (like C, java, Python etc)!

On commenting and approving pull requests

After reviewing a lot of pull requests, I’ve settled on a simple default: if my comments are all nitpicks, suggestions, questions, or non-blocking issues, I leave them and approve the PR at the same time.

🥳🎮 "How to Implement an FPS Counter" - because counting frames per second is rocket science, obviously. Who knew you'd need a PhD in #timers to avoid coding a potato 🥔 of a counter? Want the secret formula? Just keep measuring time, Einstein! ⏱️✨

Some emulators' time stamps in (Z) half-duplex, are huffy🫣! Data is transmitted bidirectionally but only in one direction at a time.

Like (f, g, h) same #checksum as (a) yet different sh*t 🤷‍♂️!
So, #HapaUjanjatu, even if checksum helps detect data corruption, NOT a guarantee of data integrity.

A correct checksum does not mean the data is the "correct" what it was supposed to be, seen🤔? #codingtips #5021tips #programmingtips #ecu #keyprogramming #ECUProgramming #EEPROM #dpf #egr #immoff #controlelectrico #howitworks
