I saw your sig link and visited your site and read:
JaxCoder.com said Finite State Machine for embedded systems
A State Machine is defined as a pattern that allows an object to change it's state as a result of an external stimulus. When the number of states is known and of a limited number it is called a Finite State Machine
That is probably the clearest and most concise explanation I have ever seen of state machine and finite state machine.  I really like to read clear writing -- it makes learning so much faster.
Kudos!
And, oh yeah, I'm building a dotnet core WebAPI that uses this very cool QRCoder library[^] to generate QR Codes from text the user supplies. That library is really great. Makes things easy.

Where is everyone today?
Well, giving it some thought I know where a few people are but, for the most part, I don't know where most people are - so
where is everyone? I don't know. Wherever they've been last.

Working on an Android app, installing a Kurzweil MicroPiano[^] (bought new in 1997 and used less than half a dozen times) in my home studio, and laundry. In that order.
I love the holidays! Have been going to bed at 5am, waking up at 11am and not showering till 4pm.

Celebrating Christmas again; yesterday with the parents and family, today with good friends. Lots of coffee, lots of food, and a few hours of talking and visiting old memories.
And yet, 15 minutes before midnight I still need to come online and visit the Lounge 
How was your christmas?

So did I; we don't do presents and there's no decoration in the house.
..but since everyone has holidays anyways it's a good moment to visit and share a meal. And tomorrow most festive food will be at a discount

I'm cooking a turkey, so it involves waiting around.
In the interim I got Parsley to do a really complicated parse using techniques i created called abstract symbols and virtual symbols.
It can now discern between an expression and a cast, smoothly.
Slang takes a long time to cook the thing, though. At least not as long as the turkey.
I also got a headline article today though i would have preferred a different day. Still, yay.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Be careful not to forget the turkey, or you will go cold turkey

I did mine in the sous vide - 3 hours @65C and it's ready to carve. Since nobody really wants the legs, I just do a breast or a couple of breasts with sage, butter, and lemon. It comes out moist and as tasty as turkey ever gets every time.
And if it's in for an extra hour because - whatever - it's no problem.

i use thyme, butter and lemon zest to baste it with it periodically. although before i put it in i get it under the skin next to the breast meat as well. Then I just oven roast it, but i stuff it with a spanish onion, quarterd, a clove of garlic, halved lengthwise, a halved lemon (the one i zested) and a bunch, as in 1 bunch of thyme.
It comes out perfect every time, esp with my new convection oven. (well, a year old now)

Since my wife is German my mother in law makes a goose for us.
First it gets stuffed with weeds I cannot even pronounce. Then it gets in the oven on a very low temp for half a day.
After that it goes into the cold over the night.
The next day the fat is removed and the goose is roasted at high temperature to get a crispy skin.
It's quite a project, but they wouldn't have it another way.

it sounds like your goose is cooked!
