@DHLParcelUK I need a hand - you were due to deliver my parcel to a service point but scanner didn't work so driver took the parcel back. Now seems to be stuck at depot and not sure what to do next! I've DM'd you details already.

@The_Viking_64 @MrWillFitz I think it has mostly taken space from the carriageway - main lanes are now narrower and the old bus lane repurposed. Still lots of trees along this route.

At a wedding. Couple are British and Guatemalan. Important musicology news - the beegees are in the middle of the venn diagram, the bit where both contingents are on the dance floor 💃😂

@jamestharpe @pragprog Tell me more about the this? Alternatives are to add whatever test harness you have to call the real dependencies, or just do something to test everything except the call into the dependency somehow?

@FranFeehan Have extras and backup plans up your sleeve, as others have said, but don't over-fill the planned programme. It's important to have unstructured time (but this is also where accidents can happen so risk assess with care and set boundaries).

Meaghan Kall has moved to Bluesky
So - is anyone monitoring what day people actually *test negative* after a positive test and are released from isolation? And whether or not they had symptoms?

@logicalelegance @Arm I've only used the core parts via the ST HAL, so haven't seen the benefit of CMSIS really. We used the CMSIS-RTOS API for our first RTOS project so we could change to a different RTOS later if we needed to. It was OK, but not a perfect fit, so use FreeRTOS API directly now.

@b0rk Sensors / ADCs that give more bits of precision than I care about. E.g 12-bit ADCs built-in to MCU that I want to use to drive a MIDI value (7-bit).

what do you use right shift (>>) for? I feel like I've only ever used left shift (<<), for multiplying by a power of 2

We also need urgent transparency on where the 43,000 figure comes from. How do we know the extent of the problem, and how sure are we that this doesn't extend back further, or more samples were not affected? There needs to be an urgent independent enquiry.

@bitshiftmask I guess is the blue LEDs drew a load of current on their way out, that could have made the pads hot and burned off any coating?
