Over the beginning few years into software engineering and FOSS world, I legit thought Sourceforge is a sketchy software download website

What’s wrong with embedded C? Would you rather write assembly?
Because the machine could be headless so it can’t display the applet to click on
From my understanding, one of the actual use case of assembly is for cyber security engineers to dump assembly instructions from a compiled program, so they can check for any potential vulnerability. I’ve also seen assembly included in an embedded codebase (the overall project is in C), which I assume is for more optimized performance and deterministic behavior
Having to adapt to shells is exactly why I don’t like to use radical shells like fish or nushell. I don’t want to feel too comfortable with them, because if I do, I would probably regret it when I’m stuck in situations that doesn’t have the correct shell. SSH into a new server or Raspberry Pi that has DNS issue, for example, which actually happened to me more than once. The DNS is already troublesome, and I don’t want shell unfamiliarity to become another headache
If you use zsh, there is zsh syntax highlighting plugin. For bash, a cursory search gave me ble.sh which looks interesting. And as other threads have mentioned, fish shell has this built in, but beware fish shell syntax works drastically differently from other POSIX shells
The fact that my game throttles when windows does update in the background as it pleases is enough reason
sudo provides sudoedit
or sudo -e
which allows me to use vim with my user configuration btw
BeagleBone has two RISCV SBC recently. One uses a chip from Microchip which is partially an FPGA also, and the other one uses a chip from a Chinese company
It is good that such app works for you, but from what I’ve seen AndFTP is only available in Google Play store, and with bundled ad in the free version and paid otherwise. In comparison, LocalSend is none of that, and it is available on FDriod as well. LocalSend is also FOSS from protocol to the app through and through, and although SSH technology itself is secure, the security of the client depends. These are all the reasons to answer your question of “I need something more than scp”. I use SSHFS myself too in the case of file backup, but also LocalSend for different scenarios such as “I need this video to be sent to my computer ASAP”. If you are not convinced, feel free to overlook the project, that doesn’t mean the app has zero use case
What is that? I am curious because I haven’t seen a competent SCP app for a few years
Yes, you send files from/to your phone with an app that looks clean and modern
As a regular i3 user, I was very satisfied on how tiling was implemented into the Pop shell of Gnome. After a few keybind change here and there it almost felt like home maneuvering the windows and workspaces. One minor complain is glitches happen when external monitor is connected/disconnected on the fly (laptop usecase), in which case windows are disoriented and thrown around at random unexpected places instead of staying at where they were. I’m blaming Gnome on that one however, since I’m assuming it is related on how Gnome handle multiple screens and Pop shell act on top of it, so I’m expecting it to be fixed in Cosmic DE
If you know what you are doing, type “yes do as I say”
Maintainability is inverse correlated to job security anyway
Good devs are good regardless of context, they may have their personal preferences but in the end welcome bug reports and feature requests, especially the helpful ones because it helps the project. Bad devs are dicks regardless of context as well, all they care about is review rate and other numbers appear in the scoreboard
Agreed. Qalculate is my definitive answer to the software alternative to TI/Casio calculator. If I want more freedom in my calculation I would just use iPython shell
A lot of proprietary engineering software (CAD, MATLAB, etc) or GUI heavy programs have poor or no terminal interface to work with, so the need remote desktop solution is valid
Ackchyually, value watching in debugger almost guarantee to get the value by address, but printf in some languages can pass by value, unnecessarily make copy of the watched variable, and the value printed is the copied data instead of the original
All of the quirks you said are true, yet they still established the “okay” ecosystem of hobby-grade microcontrollers like Arduino, IoT devices, and other small scale robotics systems. None of them would have happened without the “okay” abstraction C/C++ provides as opposed to assembler
