Of course it is, why would you claim such nonsense? Are you deducing that from your web-development experience?
Testing against a number typically involves a subtraction, and the result being tested... wait for it.... against zero.
Testing against zero is directly supported (and, for instance on the AVR architecture, takes a single clock cycle. on x86 it probably takes 7 1/3;))
Nah, it's just someone trying to be funny by making the same joke as someone else did the other week. The difference is, it was actually funny that time.
Surely not, as there isn't much energy to harvest in the first place. You'd need way more to create a signal strong enough to to be picked up by the tower, so either you have your tower very close, or your idea is moot.
What? One of the last MCUs I worked with didn't have any RAM whatsoever, just saying. Of the numerous others which had RAM, none would 'copy code there' in x86-fashion.
Step 1: Make a very public scene whenever someone does something slightly dumb. Be sure to use horrible names and as much profanity as possible.
Well my reply was not "very public" (didn't make a/. story, anyway), and OPs claim wasn't "slightly" dumb. Noone was called "horrible names" and the amount of profanity could double and it would still be harmless.
I know I've mentioned this before, but you need to consider the possibility that your software might be done.
Considered and considered stupid, because suggested in the context of operating systems. Operating systems are only done when hardware is 'done', which is unlikely to happen any time soon IMO.
Well obviously you are stupid, as you are judging something which you don't know a wet shit about. Protip: subscribe to lkml and actually see how wrong you are.
Seriously, though, mainstream OS implementation is 10% OS theory and 90% careful engineering. So your course will be useful, but it won't be nearly sufficient.
You are aware of that the BSDs are carefully engineered, well documented, etc? Unlike GNU and Linux, which rather have grown.
Yeah. Until you apply some weight, (read: accidentally put something on top of it, or have some moron step on it etc) -- then you have a nice sort-of-lever:)
Likewise, place it on the backside and it will annoy the hell out of everyone whenever you nudge the table

irssi box, indeed. same here. also, receiving end of the serial console of my desktop.
It was probably meant the other way around:
Microsoft Windows is the Raspberry Pi of the OS world.
In terms of performance, that sounds about right.

FIRST ... ONE
the similarity is overwhelming.
It's written in portable assembly, right?
cc -x c - <<'X' && ls -l a.out
#include <stdio.h>
int
main(void)
{
printf("hello world\n");
}
X

Even if the truck trickle charges on a 120VAC, 20A connection...
Wow... just...wow.
...via a set of solar panels
wow.

[...] and I can honestly say that they are bug free!
That's a bold claim. Turns out whoever makes it is doomed to have at least one bug in the software they're talking about.
What's ramless CPU are you using?
It was an attiny too, tiny13. No high-volume or anything, though
But it isn't power enough to record audio, much less video. We're talking milliwatts, possibly microwatts here.

But firmware gets copied to ram.

Other than that, yeah, totally applies
[The kernel is] somewhat of a wall-garden amongst the dev community
Yeah, that's really a problem. Now if only we could fork the whol-- oh, wait.
huh? Your reply to my other post was funny, but this just doesn't make sense.
as long as their is a buyer
You can't be serious.

Considered and considered stupid, because suggested in the context of operating systems. Operating systems are only done when hardware is 'done', which is unlikely to happen any time soon IMO.
but I still think it's stupid.
Well obviously you are stupid, as you are judging something which you don't know a wet shit about. Protip: subscribe to lkml and actually see how wrong you are.
At least it's not BSD.

If it was convex from a viewer's POV, then it would be much thicker in the middle, if the back were to be flat
