  • Better than many, mediocre.

    With my coworkers I’ve got a strange ability to pick up any language that tastes like c, and get stuff done. I’m sure I’ve confused our c# guys when I make a change to their code and ask for a code review, because I’ll chase down quality of life improvements for myself. (Generally, I will make the change and ask if I have any unintended side effects, because in an MCU, I know what all my side effects are, multi threaded application?, not at all)

    Edit: coming from a firmware view, I’ve made enough mistakes to realize when order of operations will stab me, when a branch is bad because that pipeline hit will hurt, and I still get & vs && wrong more often than I would like to admit.











  • What’s the laptop? It looks like someone makes a handful of adapters for different laptop barrel connectors to USB c PD.

    Using multiple ports isn’t really an option, because all the ground (0v) lines on a USB power Bank will be tied together, so stacking them would only prove to short+V to Gnd. If you had multiple power banks, and did not tie the chassis lines together (because those are also often shorted to 0V), maybe this would work it likely depends on the adapters used, but that would involve you traveling with a power strip, 4 adapters and the monster cable.
