@kentindell @ashmueli @nuthatch @danluu oh i've done some of that from pi's and webcams to printers and even connecting to FIAT ECUs, but 2000ish models did not have ECU redundancy at all, just wondering if that's changed. obviously they probabky use the backup swtchover flash system, but if something fails (hardware) then that's it and as a firmware dev there are diminishing returns in showing the end user low level error info, better to go for the don;t panic general error screen as seen above  @kentindell @peterainbow @ashmueli @nuthatch @danluu at the same time, your own blog header overlays the text underneath so the first line can't be read. Software is hard. (The blog post is super interesting in any case)  @stooovie @peterainbow @ashmueli @nuthatch @danluu There’s a reason I stick to embedded systems. They have their own specific challenges but the crud piled on crud that is the modern web computing stack is a whole different thing. This is particularly why I won’t take shit from web developers who think they know how to engineer cars. |
@peterainbow @ashmueli @nuthatch @danluu Yes, search is grey goo now. But I can point you at a blog post about updating firmware in cars. https://kentindell.github.io/2023/04/18/get-your-app-to-mars/
