Word of mouth, referral.

Put another way, freelancing means your job is part your vocation and part sales and marketing. You generally need to be proficient at both in order to be successful.

For me, personally, while I was an employee I went to monthly tech meetups—ideally cross-functional, not just programming language user groups—and travel to conferences on my own dime.

Things have changed in the last 20 years, but the principles of what worked for me still apply. I met people from around the world at conferences like sxsw interactive and kept in touch on a nascent pre-celebrity twitter. When I decided to go freelance, I had over 100 acquaintances to reach out to, whether they might want to work with me or to keep me in mind if they eventually had someone to refer. Obviously, the communities and platforms would be different today.

It helps to specialize, so when someone encounters a need for $skill or $domain they think of you. For me, that was data visualization. I also built a portfolio with a lot of automotive work, which begat more work in that industry.
As mentioned by another comment, the flash chosen a 16 Mbit according to Avnet's listing. Storage during component selection is pretty much always in bits, whereas consumers like bytes. That being said, the board should be reworkable to swap the flash.

Other notes:
1. Differential routing was mentioned, but no mention of impedance. It's a short run so it's probably fine (I've run high speed over jumper wires before) but it should be noted.
2. There's merit to it being a very simple board, but an SD card connector may have saved the usability and likely really expanded what you can do with the system.
3. The workaround to load directly into DDR was good thinking.
4. Again understood for simplicity but LDO-ing almost 4V down for a core rail is unideal. I couldn't easily find specs on how much current will be taken on this (or any) rail, but just remember that every milliamp here is 4 milliwatts burned as heat.
5. Good to use a simple SoC like this. Integrating DDR and QFN show a real reverence for the challenges one can run into with modern LP5 and BGA parts. Really don't want that so early in the education.

Overall good article, and good work

Do you have a CO2 monitor? I bought one during Covid to monitor the classroom I teach in. I was surprised by how bad it got: well over 1000 ppm.

When I brought the monitor home, I was surprised all over again by 1000+ ppm levels with just a couple of people and a cat. All the efforts to seal the house for energy efficiency were in direct opposition to advice to lower CO2 levels. The only reasonably effective solution that isn't absurdly expensive is to open the windows a little. All the time. You pay more on heating and cooling, but.. there is no alternative.

The good news is that it gives you a reason to leave the drafty window air conditioners installed all winter long.

And house plants have negligible impact on the levels. Keep plants for the aesthetic, but they aren't going to solve the problem.

Big agree on Golang. I had colleagues working with 5-6 JS microservices and they really wanted to keep span IDs so they can have sub-spans and unify semantic requests together (they also included background jobs processing) and they had to bring up a Redis container just to keep mappings of pieces of data every microservice has access to (e.g. order_id) and the actual span ID. It worked well in the end but it needed to be fully manually taken care of.

Logical extensions of this principle:

I don't think it's a good principle.
Combination of power and distance.

Copper Ethernet standards tend to be specified for over 30 metres, and go (preferably) up to 100m. That’s pretty tricky to do, you need quite thick cable with individually foil shielded pairs to achieve those kind of long distances at 10Gbps. 40 Gbps USB-C on the other hand is recommended to travel over a maximum of a metre or so of cable, with the recommended being 0.8m (2.6ft) of cable or less! Thunderbolt cables that go longer need active driver chips inside the cable in each connector to make the whole thing work.

Then there is the power issue, 10Gbps Ethernet uses significantly more than 1Gbps, so a 40GBase-T switch would be even more power hungry.

The combination of these has meant that basically most people just use fibre if they need more bandwidth.

Turning on a bathroom vent fan is remarkably effective. Based on the CO2 monitor in my basement utility room, turning on a bathroom vent fan in the upstairs lowers the CO2 in the entire house within a few hours.
An energy recovery ventilator would be ideal, though, as it wares much less energy while still lowering your CO2 levels.

It would be awesome if there were a way to actually capture and sequester in-home CO2, so that your in-home number could be lower than the outdoors. But I’ve never heard of such a thing.

> After all, his main point is that it’s complex and overengineered, which is the key takeaway for curious bystanders like me, whether every detail is technically correct or not.

This is a gross over-simplification that will leave you with a very skewed view of reality. As a programmer I only ever had to add a library, configure the OTLP endpoint details (host, port, URI, sometimes query parameters as well) and it was done.

It might be "complex and overengineered" if you want to contribute to the OTel libraries but as a programmer-user you are seeing practically none of it. And I would also challenge the "complex and overengineered" part but for now I am not informed enough to do it.
It's probably on all Electron apps as well, and considering some of the parts of Android and Chromium are used on Smart TVs, head units in cars and game consoles, that's probably at least another 1bn.

Just keep in mind that after all the hard work you’ve done over the years, having good reviews etc. if Upwork (or whatever else platform you’re on) terminates your account—and you have no other income/client acquisition stream—you‘re screwed.

Happened to me years ago. After struggling to get clients on Upwork I finally got gigs and good reviews. Put in a lot of hard work and earned some sort of „trusted freelancer“ badge (don’t know what it was called) that helped me to promote my profile.

I was very happy… only to find out a few days later that Upwork suddenly terminated my account for a (supposed) breach of their rules. They didn’t want to tell me the actual reason but said that I have mentioned „PayPal“ in a message to my clients (and accusing me of wanting to move my clients away from Upwork).

Never did I wanted to do that. I don’t know if I ever mentioned PayPal—and if so then only to talk about payment processor integrations on clients websites.

I messaged back and forth for days with them. In the end it wasn’t worth my energy.

Just be careful and get control of your income streams and diversify as much as possible.

You make some abstract conclusions about merit without defining what that word means to you or how it is applied. That makes your comment really half a comment that is just words void of a logical connection to anything.

Whether compatibility is a part of merit depends upon your highly specific definition of that term. This context of compatibility is especially problematic. Merit typically refers to one or more accomplishments or experiences whose sum accounts for a qualifier, which refers to actions in the past. Perceived compatibility at interview time refers to assumed future social cohesion.

1. This is a demonstration of tense mismatch. It compares past known things to future desires. It is rational to hope for some unrealized conclusion in the future, but it is illogical to use that hope as a basis of comparison.

2. In most cases interviewers know they want compatibility, but they have not defined what specifically constitutes compatibility. So, even if the first point were logical it still doesn't matter because its unclear what comparison is being drawn.

This is precisely why many hiring companies numerically ignore hiring for talent all together and instead focus only upon statistical mean segments above some stated minimum qualifiers. Everybody wants to pretend they hire for talent, because it sounds attractive, but the numbers and practices say the opposite.

If you want, in reality, for social compatibility to actually matter that needs to be defined as specifically as possible. I promise you that whatever series of definitions you or anybody else comes up with will ultimately differ from concepts of merit significantly, because excellence, the goal of merit, and sameness, the goal of compatibility, are diametrically opposed.

If it wasn't for the counter-example of Musk demonstrating that exact combination, I'd agree.

I don't know if all the stuff with, say, Twitter (usage as well as ownership), is him blowing off steam, or if he managed to build up leadership teams in Tesla and SpaceX that can just work around him, but somehow, somehow, he's managed to be exactly what SpaceX and Tesla needed to turn from a joke into a success… while also still being a lunatic with TBC and Twitter.

Even with Tesla, even though the company needed someone with his showmanship to get anywhere, the $420 privatisation thing, the way FSD turned from a fantastic surprise into a neck-millstone of overpromising and under-delivering are bizarre own-goals.

In the UK, trickle vents above windows and doors were historically used for passive ventilation to prevent mould by allowing airflow. However, modern building practices and regulations, including stringent air tightness requirements mandated by Building Control, have shifted focus towards more efficient ventilation solutions like Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems. While trickle vents are still used in some cases, their prevalence has decreased compared to earlier practices
Mechanical ventilation with heat recovery is a common term (MVHR). Basically a fan but it tries to recover the heat lost in winter. Usually comes as a whole house system but there are some that do single rooms.
> that ChatGPT can finish a leetcode problem before I've even fully parsed the question.

This is an interesting case for two reasons. One is that leetcode is for distilled elementary problems known in CS - given all CS papers or even blogs at disposal, you should be able to solve them all by pattern matching the solution. Real work is anything but that - the elementary problems have solutions in libraries, but everything in between is complicated and messy and requires handling the unexpected/underdefined cases. The second reason is that leetcode problems are fully specified in a concise description with an example and no outside parameters. Just spending the time to define your problem to that level for the LLM is likely getting you more than halfway to the solution. And that kind of detailed spec really takes time to create.
LLMs are very good at first order coding. So, writing a function, either from scratch or by composing functions given their names/definitions. When you start to ask it to do second or higher order coding (crossing service boundaries, deep code structures, recursive functions) it falls over pretty hard. Additionally, you have to consider the time it takes an engineer to populate the context when using the LLM and the time it takes them to verify the output.

LLMs can unlock incredibly development velocity. For things like creating utility or helper functions and their unit tests at the same time, an engineer using a LLM will easily 10x an equally skilled engineer not using a LLM. The key is to architect your system so that as much of it as possible can be treated this way, while not making it indecipherable for humans.
From the article:

> Emergency legislation to exonerate wrongfully convicted Post Office workers has completed its journey through Scottish Parliament and each will now receive initial compensation of £600,000, with the ability to claim more as financial redress for their suffering.
Obviously, yes.

It's worth noting that the person who said that they'd only hire junior developers who know git isn't the President of the United States or anything, and can absolutely make their own hiring decisions.

It's perfectly reasonable to make your own hiring decisions, IMO, and asking people to know git, or the fundamentals of version control seems totally fair, IMO.

If people are willing to spend a few weeks solving leetcode problems, or answering mock interview questions, I feel like they could absolutely spend 15-30 minutes learning how to use git.

National law trumps corporate contracts, that's essentially the core of it.

Similarly, GDPR gave teeth to pre-existing privacy laws in EU. Private contracts are nowhere near as enforceable, especially in terms of consequences - but the EU side of the contract will still be on the hook for legal consequences if UK company fails to uphold their side, or if UK changes a law that makes it incompatible with GDPR requirements (as in with US CLOUD act and the like).
