[01:23:32] <rue_house> I think.... I'v been trying to mentally catalog thingiverse
[02:23:52] <mrdata> http://hackaday.com/2016/09/13/the-bootup-guide-to-homebrew-two-stage-tentacle-mechanisms/
[02:32:46] <Snert> that tentacle is creepy
[02:49:36] <mrdata> worthwhile creepy though
[02:50:10] <deshipu> throw a couple of schoolgirls in the mix
[02:50:26] <mrdata> always helps
[12:14:03] <veverak> somebody please
[12:14:05] <veverak> compile my code
[12:14:17] * veverak find out he avoids it entire day
[12:16:53] <robopal> go on
[12:16:56] <robopal> just do it
[13:01:30] <deshipu> no, don't do it
[13:01:53] <deshipu> use the procrastination to do all the other important stuff you need done first
[13:17:38] <veverak> wise thing to do
[18:41:00] <z64555> compile your code? what? I compile my code millions of times.
[18:48:15] <Enamkcin> I compile code when I'm stuck writing code so I don't have to write more code.
[18:57:40] <veverak> z64555: I tend to write entire file in one go
[18:57:44] <veverak> usually 280 lines
[18:57:53] <veverak> starts procrastrinating the moment it should be compiled first
[18:58:06] <veverak> anyway
[18:58:08] <veverak> hmm
[18:58:37] <veverak> deshipu: I tried to use TCP in micropython to set RGB leds, it received 4*60 bytes long message to set all leds and show them
[18:59:07] <veverak> with TCP I was waiting for like 0.2s to receive the message inside the esp8266
[18:59:30] <veverak> with UDP I got 33FPS on showing the led with this system
[18:59:52] <veverak> but I can see when UDP gives bad data or losts something
[19:00:25] <veverak> any tips for some compromise?
[19:00:38] <veverak> I suppose this may be more effecient on different interpretr though :/
[19:01:03] <veverak> P.S: want around 30FPS to be able to set all lds
[19:21:11] <anonnumberanon> veverak, so paste your code if you want help on it
[19:22:11] <veverak> https://bpaste.net/show/362a0105fc47
[19:23:23] <veverak> this works fine at around ~30 fps but you can see that UDp is not 100% reliable

[19:27:55] <veverak> ok, maybe turn off webrepl and AP point esp is making ...
[21:21:18] <z64555> vverak: TCP for stuff that cannot be filtered (digital messages) UDP for streams that can (analog values)
[21:21:40] <z64555> both protocols suck
