Or Musk says: "Bitcoin too high!" ... and it tanks 10%.
But he's already made a Billion$ on it.

It was only in wine that he laid down no limit for himself, but he did not allow himself to be confused by it.

If you substituted Unicorns for BTC, I wouldn't be able to tell you if it makes any difference; though the Unicorn is probably cuter ... but I guess that's what DoggieCoins are for.

He's a monetary visionary to some. He influences decisions, but not the trend.
I just enjoy the vids' where he promises a tank and the glass breaks

I hear Tesla is having quality problems ... but the BTC flip did better than the revenue from cars.

Yeah, I read that a Model Y was driving down the highway and the roof came completely off the car. That's crazy.

I've been spending all day woolgathering on the subject of cooperative vs preemptive multitasking on microcontroller systems - particularly those with slow or absent JTAG support.
I saw your post and was like "oh goody! an excuse to nerd out with Daniel on the subject"
And then of course, it was something like Garfield. And now I'm got a cavalcade of observations about multitasking banging around in my noggin with nowhere to go.
Oh well, I should probably be working.

Some microcontrollers do not have RTC support or any other kind of timer-like tick coming in so cooperation seems like the best option for them. I seem to remember an article or two here on that topic.

I've also found that introducing multithreading into a system you already can't debug using a traditional debugger is a recipe for a nightmare in practice.
What I've done on this dual core monster I am working with is I keep exactly two threads - each with its own core affinity, and they basically do very little communication with each other, and all of their work is internally cooperatively multitasked.
It doesn't have an RTC per se, but like most CPUs it has a timing crystal connected so you can get the number of milliseconds since boot with it. I use that to make timers.
static uint32_t tickTS=0;
void loop() {
if(millis()-tickTS>=1000) {
tickTS=millis();
Serial.println("One second elapsed");
}
}
You can even wrap that to turn it into a callback. or whatever.
but i do all my cooperatively multithreaded code such that if i have to make a time delay for example, I use the above mechanism to avoid blocking. I do this on the code for each of the threads/cores.

I have a similar issue. I have a big bunch of code to debug that needs to run on a GPU. I have written it so it can also run on the CPU so I am doing all my initial debugging on the CPU and then I'll try it on the GPU. I have already tried small bits on the GPU and it looks good so far.

I did something like that with my JSON(C++) library. I wrote it on a desktop and it made it work only to ultimately port it to run on devices as meager as 8-bits and 4kB of RAM.
To make things even more gonzo the entire thing is a port of a JSON parser I wrote in C#.

Whose golden age?
Word here is, we should abandon the term; it implies we did good, while we traded in slaves.
We did. Our "golden age" coincides with the age of piracy.

It was a double entendre.
The first instance referring to the golden age the the TV comedy "Saturday Night Live" and the second golden age referring to one's very senior years, hence, referring to the 'for' golden age.
