One of my favorite bug reports recently was where dsp processing was causing audio effects in just the left ear while playing Piggy by NIN. Turns out there was a buffer alignment issue, so had to pragma that code.

After a week of vacation I'm feeling rejuvenated and ready for much coding.

Getting ready to go #marchforscience today. Growing up I never would have thought this would have to be a thing. On a positive note this administration has helped support the poster board industry.

Time to dig into this null pointer nonsense in the gatt manager.
Advice: don't go to court looking a cross between an old-timey villain and general Zod. You'll probably lose.
This might be some of the most beautiful binary file format prints.

The picture quality is decent but I'd be embarrassed to release code as buggy as samsung does. Similar to a DSP crashing where you'll have whatever was in the buffer playing forever. #glitchart #ciahackedmytv

Follow up: callstack was not even close, but had a good time root causing.
My dear god. Bros as far as the eye can see. #killmenow
You know it's going to be a fun debug time when someone says: "here's probably the callstack, good luck. "

Time to work on some OTA over BLE today 😀. Telling these are the things that make me smile, sports not so much.
It's been fun to see how quickly my timeline is filling up in just a few day. People seem to be splitting time tweeting/tooting now, but I'm curious how long before people make this their primary service.
Showing a web developer how information is sent electrical on a bus, then visibly showing them the bits and converting it to ascii..then seeing their reaction makes you feel 😊 now for me to learn some web stuff.
Fuzz testing Bluetooth stacks makes you realize they are like a house built on stilts.. that are on fire. Even valid timing tests can bring the whole thing down. Curious if this is the majority or minority.
Hello friends, I'd just like to interject here for a moment.
Eugen needs money to live, and mastodon.social has server expenses, but money doesn't write code by itself. There's still 183 open issues on the Mastodon project github.

Writing a code patch to fix a problem or work in a feature helps not just mastodon.social, but also everyone else running Mastodon, too, and you'll have @Gargron's gratitude, and all the other devs' too.
Love, Trev
That moment you realize there are assumptions and tight coupling of AVRCP/A2DP in a chip vendors Bluetooth stack but this assumption isn't shared by App developers. 🤦♂️
