oh wow I played the song both on the embedded here and on the desktop app leading to a very weird combination

it means you're ready for this one

Do you code small amount of code and take frequent breaks?

Really depends on the state. I have ADHD so sometimes I get into hyper focus and I can write full features/PRs in one take and other times I'm doing few tasks at the same time

When I'm debugging/designing I usually take often breaks to re-iterate and make sure I didn't delve into something unwanted

I have ASD and probably ADHD as well not sure, still waiting for assessment.

I think I just read there's some correlation around the two.

i.e not debugging correctly (overlooking the problem), doing something too complex, figuring out a better solution

In my case, I have an idea, then I dump it as code, and finally will go back debugging it to fill the gaps. Hyper duper focus while writing the initial code.

Can you tell a bit more about the process of idea -> initial code?

Sure! For a new feature, for example, I'll do a bit of research, to see what's needed. When I understand the basics of how to make it work, then I start writing the code to do just that (the extreme version would be a huge single function that does everything). It's horrible code initially, has many assumptions, and it's kinda fragile (if I expect value X and receive Y it just breaks).

So you do not follow any "philosophies", but rather do what works for you.

What kind of philosophies do you have in mind?

welp, it sounds off the rails of the original question, but the Unix philosophy is pretty common afaik

I didn't call it Unix philosophy (until I googled it now)

`The Unix philosophy emphasizes building simple, compact, clear, modular, and extensible code that can be easily maintained and repurposed by developers other than its creators. The Unix philosophy favors composability as opposed to monolithic design.`
Yeah that sounds like any code that most developers would like to write

but making it composable and modular is after you understand what's the use cases

if you'd start with small pieces, you'll probably end up not using atleast 30% of what you wrote.

(because in the end it wasn't needed for the original use case)

yeah, thats the end goal, but if I try to start with that, I usually end up with a bunch of assumptions that don't work

But interesting thing I observed is that "Unix philosophy" in real life is hard to find

If you mean that you don't see too many "small parts" that are commonly used, that's probably because there's the integration cost and I wouldn't want to add a dependency for an one liner

right now many parts (especially in the mirrord-layer) are very custom and specific, because it's very hard to start with a good design that'll cover all, so we build functionality that works, then we'll refactor it to be more composable

oh, so you don't like the `is_even` crate?

btw, not sure if such a crate exists (probably does)

How do you approach coding It is like

wow we're already at 99 users! thanks for being here folks 🙂 let's make it 100!

I live near Toronto, haven't seen this lol

Love the new logo!! Nice job whoever made it!

Thanks! We're really happy with it 🙂 It was done by this artist: https://www.gefenbd.com/

I want to build an AC control unit using RPi - the part I'm missing is a case that I can just plug into my electric outlet. Anyone familiar with a kit/case that can fit for my use case?

All you want to is basically emulate the remote or some sort of expansion bay that the AC uint has that you think you can plug into?

tbh the question is how do I get a RPi mounted on the wall via the electricity socket
controlling the AC is just one of the features it'll have and it's kinda straightforward
