12:56 PM Jartza: I've been making this customer project with Polish people for the last 4 weeks now
12:57 PM polprog: hmm
12:57 PM polprog: what kinda project (if i may ask)
12:57 PM Jartza: and I have to say, it's pretty enjoyable experience compared to indian "developers" :P
12:57 PM polprog: hehe
12:57 PM Jartza: a) they speak good english, b) they know what they are doing, c) I don't have to babysit them.
12:58 PM Jartza: well, customer project, can't really tell the specifics because of the NDA
12:58 PM nuxil: not to sound racist. im not a big found of indian developers either :p
12:58 PM kl0wn is now known as _kl0wn
12:58 PM polprog: yeah. me too. nothing about the race though, im sure some of them are great developers but the majority, meh
12:58 PM Jartza: I don't have anything against indians as such and most of the ppl I've worked with in india are nice guys
12:59 PM polprog: iirc the ceo of microsoft is indian now?
12:59 PM nuxil: its nothing to do with them. its to do with my goverment. outsourcing it infastructure to indian people. and in many cases there have been security issues, remote acces to sensitive info from idia etc.
12:59 PM Jartza: it's just... cultural difference I guess. they can't say "no" even if they don't know what they are doing and they only do 1:1 what you tell them to do but have no idea of their own
12:59 PM nuxil: *it->IT
01:00 PM polprog: mm
01:01 PM Jartza: I actually got this guide to indian culture and it pretty clearly says that if guy in India says to anyone they consider being "upper level" something like "we will try" or "yes, but..." it practically means they have no clue what they are doing, but can't say no
01:01 PM Jartza: because saying "no" to "upper level" people is bad
01:01 PM nuxil: lol..
01:02 PM polprog: oops
01:02 PM polprog: i can see where that's going
01:02 PM Jartza: only if they say "yes" without hesitation and without "but", you can trust that they do at least something
01:02 PM Jartza: I just received this guide 10 years too late, haha
01:03 PM nuxil: :D
01:03 PM polprog: lol
01:03 PM polprog: gotta take a walk
01:30 PM Tom_itx is now known as Tom_L
04:10 PM fooman2011: Hello. Is it possible to do UART without using interrupt ? I have problem when I'm trying to read bytes.
04:12 PM cehteh: sure
04:13 PM cehteh: polling the data registers and flags
04:13 PM cehteh: but i'd rather avoid that
04:13 PM cehteh: when you have a problem with the interrupt implementation then better debug that
04:17 PM fooman2011: I don't know why, but using polling instead of interrupt, i'm receiving "corrupted data"
04:32 PM cehteh: you do something wrong
04:33 PM cehteh: why dont you use interrupts?
04:47 PM fooman2011: What is the best way to implement a timeout using AVR ?
04:47 PM fooman2011: I mean when I read a char I have to "get time" and I have to exit the loop if the "get time - last char time >= timeout"
04:47 PM polprog: set timer in one shot mode
04:48 PM fooman2011: what is that ?
04:48 PM fooman2011: it's function ? or registers ?
04:49 PM fooman2011: with interrupt
04:49 PM fooman2011: ?
04:52 PM cehteh: just use one timer for .. keeping time
04:52 PM cehteh: keep it spinning and on overflow increment some global counter
04:52 PM cehteh: then you can always query your timebase, compare/wait/whatever
04:54 PM cehteh: otherwise you can use the timer capture stuff when you need precise timing, build singleshot countdown timers, whatever you need
04:54 PM cehteh: i'd prefer to make things event driven
04:54 PM * LeoNerd ^-- that
04:55 PM LeoNerd: When the character arrives -> cancel the alarm. Or when the alarm fires -> cancel the character read
04:56 PM nuxil: omg. kids found my doorbell. and keept puttin ducktape on my doorbell button so it would play music all the time. :\
04:57 PM nuxil: i need help figuring out the tinytune lib so it wount repeate the song all the time.
04:57 PM nuxil: what do i need to change to make it stop looping :p
04:57 PM nuxil: this is the file that does the magic https://github.com/blakelivingston/avr_tinytune/blob/master/tinytune/tinytune.c
04:58 PM cehteh: connect some high voltage to the bell button will fix that too :D
04:59 PM nuxil: so im wounder if i need to change someting in the isr fnc at line 114 or in the do_song_tickets at line 577 ..
05:02 PM nuxil: this line caught my eye at line 653: if (++song_info.tick >= song_info.next_tick) {ong_info.tick = 0; and set perhaps song_info.playing = 0 ther ?
05:09 PM nuxil: nm that will not do it
05:24 PM nuxil: found the damn line that will stop it :p
05:27 PM nuxil: my hunch was right. it was in one of thouse. it was in: void do_song_tick(void). in the if statement at line 647. i just added song_info.playing = 0;
05:27 PM nuxil: :)
05:29 PM nuxil: now i need to make a fnc that shuts down the pll..
