Honestly, an MCU taking any more time than a couple milliseconds to boot is embarrassing. What exactly is taking so much time to load & set up? The rp2040 can run at 200mhz, and only has ~250 kb of ram. A one second boot up time would be equivalent to filling the entire memory with zeros 66 times. (Using all twelve channels of the DMA) And if you're talking about setting up the OS, that would be around 800 instructions per byte. It just doesn't make sense how that much time could be wasted.

Oh boy, can't wait for DOGE to receive all the private info the government stores about me! I'm sure that hiring kids with no experience to program every single automatizable aspect of the government will turn out just fine! 🫠

How can you tell this is AI? I don't see any of the characteristic AI probabilistic blurs, and the reflections & caustics seem right.

In the men's bathroom, violating any of these rules of etiquette brings the death penalty.

I believe the joke is that you come off as rabid in your original comment. I'm not trying to judge you, but it was the vibe I was getting.

Yeah, I'm not a model for good programing. I don't program professionally, I just like challenging myself in my hobby projects.

No, I don't do anything professionally. I just enjoy challenging myself.

I am both the left guy and right guy. If you can't program without using a memory safe language, it's a skill issue. But I also don't want to switch to rust because I like the challenge of manual memory management. (Also rust's syntax and semantics looks like it was designed by a monkey attacking a typewriter.)
