The Weird and The Wonderful

Usually these IoT display controllers allow you to rotate any direction due to the screen orientation being unknown in advance. In any case, thanks to FueledByDecaf I worked it out by adjusting both the write order and the scan direction both. Real programmers use butterflies

Been there done this rewrite. Only in my case it was my boss's code that I rewrote. He had four entry points and I whittled them down to two - add() and delete(). Had to track down all the instances where he used the four entry points and rework those as well. Final code not only was about two thirds the size it executed about a third faster (very disk intensive).

But, what's the utility of using this type of syntax to "exec-undo" "dual-values"? :confused:

This is why good developers and development shops intercept the CxO postal mail looking for malware such as CIO Magazine.

no, blue screen has occurs yet :) کلینیک فیزیوتراپی

I use a variant of one his algorithms in my code, but it's not fast enough for me for the devices I want to target. Then again, 640x448x3bits is taxing for any IoT device, even without dithering and color matching. :doh: I'm not even sure if that screen is practical at all though and I won't know until it arrives. It could be that the Pi is the only thing I have that will run it. Real programmers use butterflies

I totally put it in the wrong place tho. Again. *hangs head in shame* Still, I'm glad you found it helpful. I use it all the time. Real programmers use butterflies

At these days, we were working in PL1, which allowed free format, like C, with columns 9-72 of every card filled with a code. One programmer from our team liked to fill all this area with a code. Probably to save punched cards. To fix a bug, he needed to retype everything from the buggy card to the end. He didn't like a bugs in the beginning.

Building a web scraper I had the pleasure to abuse JavaFX's WebView browser module by modifying byte code to hook onto http requests and the trick of this post to get at the url in an intercepted UrlLoader call. I wouldn't care using it in production. But also in test, I'd like to mention.

To the rest of the world (who actually speak English ;) ), the Orient is a (somewhat dated) way to refer to the Far East. It's where oriental is derived. "If you don't fail at least 90 percent of the time, you're not aiming high enough." Alan Kay.

Good to know. Thanks. I've been reading about it and will do more research.
