12:34 AM Tachyon` is now known as Tachgrr
12:45 AM enhering: I'll try, xentrac
12:47 AM enhering: I was going to give you a URL to the code, but I just notice that XP-Dev moved the whole project repository to private when I upgraded the plan to their new servers. All code is held private and I cannot set it to open source any more. Weird. If they do not fix it I'll move my repos to BitBucket.
12:51 AM xentrac: wow, that's weird
12:51 AM xentrac: I don't think I've heard of XP-Dev before
12:51 AM enhering: They are good. Low profile and relatively cheap.
12:52 AM enhering: But now bitbucket does the same for free
12:52 AM enhering: almost the same. Bitbucket has no wiki or forums
12:55 AM xentrac: still?
12:55 AM xentrac: I guess it would compete with Atlassian's other Wiki product
12:55 AM xentrac: what about gitlab and things like that?
12:56 AM enhering: I do not know atlassian's products well. Some are paid, some are not. They divide things too much for my brain to integrate easily
12:56 AM enhering: XP-Dev is all in one. Easy to use.
12:57 AM enhering: I have to study more what atlassian has to offer for free
01:08 AM xentrac: I haven't tried installing gitlab or using the free site
01:09 AM xentrac: Github is pretty nice but proprietary (though free of pay)
01:21 AM enhering: xentrac: Just browsed atlassian stuff. Could not find a forum or wiki. Maybe I have not browsed enough
01:22 AM enhering: This is my pet project, hosted on xp-dev: https://hackaday.io/project/11724-yauvc-yet-another-unmanned-vehicle-controller
01:23 AM enhering: Ah, ok. Maybe Confluenc is what I'm looking for
01:23 AM xentrac: yeah, it's called Confluence
01:24 AM xentrac: yeah, I know! I saw it when it was on hackaday
01:24 AM xentrac: the bog
01:24 AM enhering: It is still on HAckaday
01:24 AM enhering: Just the code is on xp-dev
01:25 AM enhering: Clonfluence seems nice. But well paid.
01:25 AM enhering: xp-dev is still a nice option. For $5/mon I get unlimited everything, but only 2G.
01:27 AM enhering: of space
01:27 AM enhering: Stil enough. All code, datasheets, PCBs and stuff use only 300MB
01:31 AM enhering: I'll call it a night here. 3am.
02:33 AM NoHitWonder__2: bitbucket does have free wiki
02:36 AM _ami_: Yup. it has
02:36 AM _ami_: i have been using it since 1 year.
03:59 AM Emil: xentrac: github should be boycotted
05:57 AM pepijndevos: What happens when you write to SPDR as slave during sending? Can you accidentally write half a byte?
05:58 AM Emil: Eh?
05:58 AM Emil: It's buffered
05:58 AM Emil: iirc
06:08 AM pepijndevos: Emil, ok thanks
06:10 AM Emil: check the datasheet
06:10 AM Emil: I could be wrong
06:11 AM pepijndevos: It said it's single-buffered, but not very clearly.
06:12 AM pepijndevos: I'm trying to use an my USBTinyAVR programmer for debugging. But the ISP does not control the SS line, so I'm having trouble sending stuff to my PC.
06:14 AM pepijndevos: It seemed to work for a while, but then I guess the SS floated away and it stopped working. Next PCB revision I should probably tie that to ground.
06:30 AM LeoNerd: Oh huh... SPDR is buffered is it? I guess it would be. Hmm. Perhaps I can improve performance of my SPI slave
06:34 AM polprog: pepijndevos: you can always bodge that to gnd on this revision and continue testing
06:37 AM pepijndevos: polprog, bodging tqfp pins is not my favourite thing, but I guess so...
11:16 AM polprog: Emil: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6ijbexoq-M
11:21 AM _ami_: guys, a typical servo (rated 4.8v to 6v) can get 3.3v PWM signal without any issue? do i need to use logic level shifter or transistor to make the signal at 5v?
11:22 AM cehteh: just try, maybe with a bit undervoltage (2.8v) and see
11:31 AM Emil: polprog: nice
11:32 AM polprog: :)
11:35 AM learath: polprog: oh man! S3M? mod?
11:35 AM learath: s3m
11:35 AM learath: that's amazing :)
11:35 AM polprog: one day i will write 90's style demo on an avr with a color display
11:35 AM learath: polprog: you have good taste in music :P
11:35 AM polprog: learath: thanks :P
11:36 AM * polprog is listening to "The Day Is My Enemy" album
11:36 AM polprog: right nao
11:46 AM Emil: Seriously
11:46 AM Emil: Can't you get reasonably priced stepper drivers from Mouser
12:05 PM NoHitWonder__: third song is from this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17Bl4xf1BAg
12:06 PM NoHitWonder__: guys from future crew later started remedy entertainment
01:40 PM polprog: lol, what a ridiculous music video
01:40 PM polprog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eK2KdIOq9l0
01:41 PM kenny__ is now known as kenny
02:00 PM enhering: xentrac: ?
02:01 PM enhering: Look what I have received from XP-Dev support: "Unfortunately, we don't support public projects on our new platform, but it will be something that we will add back in the future."
02:13 PM Emil: Hmm
02:13 PM Emil: I need a clamping diode pair
02:13 PM Emil: What should I use
02:16 PM NoHitWonder__: enhering bitbucket does have a wiki
02:16 PM enhering: Just seen it
02:16 PM enhering: Thanks, NoHitWonder__
02:47 PM Emil: Hmm
02:48 PM Emil: So my friend's building this app
02:48 PM Emil: And he's having issues with unix domain sockets on nodejs (with express)
02:48 PM Emil: he gets eaddrinuse
02:52 PM Emil: Which happens even after making sure the unix domain socket is deleted
02:53 PM cehteh: shit happens :D
02:54 PM R0b0t1`: I think I have had that exact problem
02:54 PM R0b0t1`: Kernel remembers it for an amount of time for some reason
02:54 PM R0b0t1`: I don't think it's more than a minute
02:54 PM cehteh: thats for tcp sockets
02:56 PM Emil: And for that you can just user reuser_addr
02:56 PM Emil: reuse_addr or what it was
02:56 PM Emil: But this one claims it's in use
02:56 PM cehteh: whats the path?
02:58 PM Emil: cehteh: /tmp/server.sock
02:58 PM cehteh: and that file is really deleted?
02:58 PM Emil: yeah
02:58 PM xentrac: enhering: wow, that's ridiculous
02:59 PM enhering: So, back I am to BitBucket with the project repo
03:00 PM cehteh: Emil: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16178239/gracefully-shutdown-unix-socket-server-on-nodejs-running-under-forever .. just google
03:01 PM cehteh: you may unlink it before starting
03:05 PM Emil: cehteh: thanks
03:05 PM Emil: I think I did that, too
03:06 PM Emil: https://emil.fi/jako/kuvat/2017-07-26_22-35-44_qIuP0hIq.png
03:06 PM Emil: Yeah
03:06 PM Lambda_Aurigae: could always use the windows method...
03:06 PM Emil: Lambda_Aurigae: windows?
03:06 PM Lambda_Aurigae: reboot on socket disconnect.
03:06 PM Emil: :D
03:06 PM Lambda_Aurigae: like nuking the site from orbit..it's the only way to be certain.
03:17 PM enhering: Can somebody please test this URL: https://bitbucket.org/enhering/yauvc I dunno if it is opening because I'm logged or if it is really public
03:19 PM xentrac: well, I can see an "Overview" but it doesn't view over much really
03:20 PM HighInBC: testing a new javascript exploit?
03:20 PM xentrac: https://bitbucket.org/enhering/yauvc/commits/all and https://bitbucket.org/enhering/yauvc/src are somewhat more forthcoming though
03:22 PM enhering: Thanks, xentrac!
03:22 PM xentrac: no worries
03:29 PM Emil: https://emil.fi/jako/kuvat/2017-07-26_22-59-07_7RJpedko.png

03:30 PM Emil: https://emil.fi/jako/kuvat/2017-07-26_22-59-50_UsIlpmlN.png
03:30 PM Emil: Still a bit of routing and it's doneds
03:32 PM polprog: nice board
03:36 PM enhering: Beautiful. What is that?
03:36 PM polprog: my next question :P ^
03:39 PM HighInBC: looks like a mcu and a power regulator?
03:39 PM HighInBC: ICSP pins?
03:41 PM NoHitWonder__: enhering you can decide the landing page
03:41 PM NoHitWonder__: it can be wiki for example
03:42 PM enhering: seems so
03:43 PM NoHitWonder__: seems like everybody can edit your wiki
03:43 PM enhering: I have set that
03:43 PM enhering: Is it too bad?
03:43 PM NoHitWonder__: i dont know
03:43 PM Emil: polprog: A glorified, not cost effective stepper controller
03:44 PM enhering: If somebody abuses, I'll remove the permission
03:44 PM Emil: enhering: well, I'm not so sure the aesthetics are that good
03:44 PM Emil: but thank you : )
03:44 PM enhering: The color is amazing
03:45 PM Emil: enhering: oh yeah I tuned my kicad settings to match Oshpark :D
03:45 PM enhering: kicad is very nice. I'm glad to have migrated to it.
03:45 PM enhering: Eagle was making me nervous
03:45 PM Emil: All in all, it has taken ~5h for the whole thing
03:46 PM Emil: and an hour more to finalise it
03:46 PM Emil: Dunno if I'm just slow
03:47 PM Emil: I wonder if they would sell
03:47 PM Emil: It's around 20x30mm
03:48 PM Emil: Hmm, too costly for your average joe probably
03:48 PM Emil: I'd say at least 15e if not 20
03:48 PM polprog: cool
03:49 PM Emil: Though it is a full board with integrated motor controller
04:37 PM Emil: inb4 leonerd has it on his tindie
05:01 PM LeoNerd: Mmm?
05:01 PM LeoNerd: Ah, I don't do a motor controller oe
05:01 PM LeoNerd: one
05:22 PM Lambda_Aurigae: Emil, put an arduino bootloader on it and call it the arduino picasso or something and sell a million of them.
05:23 PM LeoNerd: Hah
05:23 PM LeoNerd: Don't forget to rename the breakout pins though too
05:23 PM LeoNerd: D1, D2, D3, ...
05:24 PM Lambda_Aurigae: dangit..there's already a picaso
05:24 PM Lambda_Aurigae: ok...call it the Arduino Salvador Dali
05:27 PM Emil: Lambda_Aurigae:
05:27 PM Emil: that's
05:27 PM Emil: beautiful
05:27 PM Lambda_Aurigae: or
05:27 PM Lambda_Aurigae: The Arduino formerly known as Prince
05:27 PM Emil: I an already see the shitpost flowing
05:27 PM Emil: I'm quite good at faux marketing
05:29 PM Lambda_Aurigae: could go by the full name
05:29 PM Lambda_Aurigae: Arduino Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto DalĂ­
05:33 PM Lambda_Aurigae: mmmmm...a nice rare steak and fresh homegrowed tomatoes for supper!
05:37 PM Emil: Aww
05:39 PM Lambda_Aurigae: brother-n-law raises cattle so we get really fresh beef once a year...usually half a cow.
05:39 PM Lambda_Aurigae: and wifey has a huge garden with 18 tomato plants.
