ESP Display S3 Parallel with Touch running htcw_gfx[^]
See that bee? That bee is victory.
That's an SVG graphic with an embedded CSS stylesheet, running on a $1.80 processor wired to a touch display.
This is vector rendering sitting on top of a skeletal w3 parsing framework on an IoT device.
That bee file is xml with an embedded CSS stylesheet. Not converted to some IoT friendly format first. Nada. Just loaded as is. Could have been streamed from the web even.
This is fantastic.
Most of this sits on top of my embedded markup pull parser.
Gosh at this rate, my w3 parsing framework will make these devices browser ready after banging on it for another year or two.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

Yeah.. All this tech..
And still the US can't build machines that simply count votes.

All of the hand recounts confirmed the automated tallies within a very negligible percent. Please stop spreading lies.

Sorry Eddy. Not correct.
US Machines are reliable and accurate.

When I first saw the tag line I read the BeeGees...blah blah
Yeah I'm brain dead working on the follow up ARM article...Timers.

It's odd to me that there doesn't seem to be much information about SysTick timer, especially the registers and how to program.
I don't discuss SysTick or Watchdog timers in my article, thought I'd save that for another article.

I have just gone through four QA questions, each of which is an error caused by a null reference. And yet none of the posters seems to have any idea a) how to diagnose and fix it, or b) even what the error means. Do those of you who still work in teams find this is a common problem with younger team members?

Perhaps because they are so spoiled that they have never in there life encountered "nothing" and have no empathy for the poor code where they would otherwise put in a null check or try/catch to help it succeed.
Prolly not. But kids today.

Well, after all it is the Billion Dollar Mistake[^], as Tony Hoare himself put it
Recently I had to go through a large code base where the authors went crazy using Non-nullable pointers[^] almost everywhere. What can I say, seems a complicated problem for many people

But I'm unsure if he doesn't really believe it himself; nulls are still a very good idea, but dangerous in the wrong hands. But so are chain saws, and hair spray, big deal.

Well, in a world where we have programming languages that have concepts like "truthy" and "falsey", what can you expect?

Not sure... there's nothing to understand

I read somewhere, years ago, that zero/nothing is one of the most difficult concepts for the human brain to understand. I think it was suggested that that was why there is no zero in Roman numerals.
|

It isn't. I have one apple in my hand. How much do you have in yours?
Even prehistoric hunters came back with "zero".
There's no 0 in Roman Numerals because it would not make sense to count nothing. A farmer that owes no taxes gets ignored, they counted what was owed. "Zero" would have no use there; even if that is the return of your hunting trip, 0 is not recorded. Writing is too precious to record zero's.
