Thank You Surely You're Not Joking Mr. Feynman It got my thumb-a-tapin and my shoulders-a-swingin though the occasional odd vocalizations I could do without but I'm a born critic something a Perfessor in Kollege i.e. to wit 16'th Century English Literature a worthless course if ever there was one instructor confirmed by declaration to me in front of entire class - Best - Cheerios

I'm completely flabbergasted that you'd like this
Kind of proud I found something you like though

What's not to like. It's basically Spanish guitar more or less as best as I can figure. Who doesn't like Spanish guitar. Please don't demean yourself by being proud of anything to do w/ me.

Glad you liked it though!
I think one of the best things about the SOTW is that I post lots of different music so most people here will find something they like eventually (although it may take some time)

Greetings Kind Regards As for electronics I purchased Tomita long ago but of course I was not an old people then. As for Tomita a little story. Back then whilst sitting around the company boardroom table/lunch table we ate together a small Electronics/Software company another engineer EE to be specific a trumpet player in fact was speaking of music and of a particular electronic composer who's name he could not recall he turned to me to inform him he confident I would know and I replied "Tomita" and he acknowledged "Yes" that was he. The gist of this story is I do not know how he knew I would know particularly as we had no conversation re/ same prior and in fact little conversation at all as we were not particularly social though he was a decent chap. I have another such similar story but perhaps for another occasion. As for recommending music I have been eager to recommend for some time a particular title I will not hold back now i.e. to wit to be specific in particular Kronos Quartet "Pieces of Africa" which I could not not play whilst driving and did so until the Toyota's tape player broke. - Best PS I play this week's SOTW daily now in fact several x's/day. My thumb is still a-tapin and I quite enjoy the angry guitar note part way through. Also I am quite impressed w/ the visuals i.e. to wit in particular to be specific I can not imagine how they are created as they are quite complex and varied.

Nice one! I'll be sure to play this during our family Christmas dinner this year

That's pretty cool.
I like EDM.

If you want to explore a little more...
No big spanish guitar in this cover but still a nice mix of flamenco with new styles. : Chambao - Ahi Estas Tu 2013 ft. Nneka - YouTube[^]
Just in case, the original version (with more guitar than the cover but still flamenco-chill): Chambao - Ahí Estás Tú (Video) - YouTube[^]
M.D.V.
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Not what I expected (I excepted less electronics), but good stuff
Reminded me a bit of Karsh Kale: Karsh Kale - Distance[^]
That song was a music sample that came with Windows Vista (and it was the only good thing to come with Windows Vista ).

There's little more satisfying than spelunking through a little MCU's hardware registers to try to eek some more performance out of its I/O. DMA, hardware SPI, SDMMC, here there be dragons.
Every new platform is like unwrapping a new toy. Downside is my code is getting uglier and uglier as it supports more and more platforms, with little I can do about it.
When it comes to driving LCD displays, one thing I did though was this. I decoupled the graphics driver itself, from the bus it uses, and both of those from the graphics library.
library-->driver-->bus
like that.
So now, I improve the bus, say optimizing it to use the Teensy's DMA capabilities and blammo all of my drivers benefit.
My code is unique in terms of IoT graphics libraries in that way.
The bottom line is a little mess goes a long way and improves performance for all my driver code across the board.
I've done it for the ESP32, and in part for the Teensy 4.x so far - the latter is a work in progress.
It's deeply satisfying to cover that much ground by modifying one header file.
And to do so by going back to the kind of coding I grew up with - smashing things up until i get to the wiring in the walls, figure out how it works, and tap right into the mains.
It's delicious.

Sounds like a hard drive related discussion, and maybe bad segments/sectors due to too much physical action.

Did I say something impolite? I had read the title and I`ve let my imagination run wild. The title usually sets the tone so I made my comment with that in mind.

No I just didn't understand you, since what I wrote had nothing to do with hard drives, and I don't normally associate the phrase "bit banging" with them so it threw me.

I went a little further down with reading (just one sentence), it looks like you`re still talking about the same earthly thing (or things). Since it`s about freedom I thought why not join the party, programmer style of course.

Well, I haven't had to wave a dead chicken over this code yet. I'm still researching it. First crawl, finally deal in the meta, and magic.

Quote: dead chicken
the party turns ugly, I`m leaving. don`t want to learn what that syntax means.
btw, you won`t see me as quest from now on. In the light of what you just said, spells and code no thanks.

Quote: I haven't had to wave a dead chicken over "this" code yet.
Which begs the question: What code has had dead chickens waved over it?
So ... How many chickens do you have now? How many did you start out with?

I never use my own chickens.

Heh, I once considered trying to create a floppy drive emulator by bit-banging the IO on a raspberry Pi, but concluded that the IO was too slow. Is that close enough?

Read the title and thought 'Ow Er Missus', mind you bit banging I find can be good for the soul... but I'm odd...
