  • Q1: No, it does not require X. But some software even if not graphical, requires X libs for whatever reason (e.g. Using Qt)

    Edit: to answer Q2: I don’t think there is technically a way to interact with the system without a TTY but thats technicalities. Your more practical answer is to use SSH to log in and interact. This is how most IoT things work which run Linux and have no display capability at all.






  • Dude, no way. This is not remotely normal!

    Rotors can get rusty when you haven’t driven for a while, but it’s just cosmetic. That’s no reason to replace rotors. Even if you end up with a bit of grooving from bits of sand in the pads (especially on the rear discs) it’s no issue.

    Something else is wrong, or your mechanic is taking you for a ride.


  • Not so much well defined as fancy words. There is no example of a paying software development job that has no economic impact if the software were to fail.

    If I ran a small shopify page for goat feed, I’d be an engineer for making sure the site stayed working so farmers could order their feed. It could even put lives at risk!

    It really only excludes someone privately working on a video game for fun.

    So given that, what are they actually regulating? What are they providing to their members to help them become better “software engineers”. I say it’s nothing at all? +








  • Totally, but I’m not aware of anyone using either properly in a truly production environment. Both are more on the hobbyist or tinkering side, or in the Linux space anyway where you can already just do anything.

    (From what I’ve seen? Would be thrilled to see examples!)

    I really like Micropython too. I made a “game” that communicates state between multiple boards over wifi in almost no time compared to how long it would take in C++.
