this always bugged me enough that i would never declare 2 variables on the same line because of it.

so that the compass knows which way it's pointing, and then (along with its gps coords and those obtained from goog maps) can turn the arrow to point the right direction. in theory.

given that i'm doing it the odd lunchtime here and there i aim to be complete in 10 years or so. then i'll start on the drone/amateur rocketry dream which is why i'm doing all this poo poo in the first place

oh of course, you need the actual one to do the offset

i had it in my head that it was a stopping point before building the full thing, dunno why i whiffed that

my spare time fantasy project is wiring up a SPI thermal imaging module to a ESP8266, like it _should_ be possible but I'm reluctant to go digging thru data sheets in my off hours

Another terrible programmer checking in. I'm so sick of JavaScript frameworks that I fantasise about embedded C programming (following SHOEGAZE's posts vicariously ITT) and everyone I've ever worked with professionally thinks TDD "isn't worth it" which seems to be code for "I don't understand it and don't intend to"

i really like python ive found it very easy to work with and get stuff done in as long as i never ever have to deploy it outside one specific environment

now i have to deploy it outside that env and gotta figure out conda or venvs, cant deploy a full containerized thing

if you dep to windows the conda env is an option, otherwise (and maybe in general) check out pipenv, it’s the new hotness

Lately I'm entering a curious new phase of terribleness where all my functions look bug free but nothing works. Not until debugging/linting do I see / remember that I once again have forgotten to write any return statements. 9 times out of 10 this is my only problem, it's been happening for about a week and my brain is of no help when I'm actually writing out the function. Logic done? Then I'm done, who cares about returning values, the fact that they were ever computed should be enough.

jabascript is becoming a dangerous reality for us because we would like to use gce's functions where js (and ts) are the only options. i dunno if we'd care enough to use wasm or scalajs or make a native module that the js calls

OK

what's &anArray?

Nope, this is where you hosed up.

&anArray is a pointer to a pointer to your 100 chars.

That being said where did you get that other pointer, like from (&anArray)[1] or something?
