Daniel is right. Just for context, Gaudeamus igitur[^] is some kind of student anthem that we sang at uni reunions. 10, 20 30, 40 years... oh my gosh! we are still alive

'Gaudeamus' used to be sung by all at the conclusion of graduation ceremonies back in the day (downunder at least).

Indeed. I forgot about the grad ceremony... too far back in the mist of time

While DD and Nagy simply had other pressing matters (politics and booze, methinks), Henry actually passed away.
He's the reason I'm on CP.
Decided to ask a question on here once, over ten years ago already, and Henry gave a good answer and even answered some follow up questions.
After that I decided CP was worth joining.
Unfortunately, after that I met some less pleasant individuals (who're all banned by now).
All in all I've met more good people than bad though

He has indicated several times in his posts that his health is not good.
In addition, his age group is probably not the youngest.
Either way, let's hope he just takes a little break and that he will return ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

I have been in the Lounge just long enough to recognize various posters
and to be excited when one of these members replies to one of my programming questions
Call me pie in the sky simplistic and way too sentimental
But as members reach some number of years here.
Why do you all not have a contact buddy that has at the least your email address?
Kind of a Club with in a Club
Reading these type of post is just not fun
YES I get the issue of privacy
I had the same concerns about JSOP but was too timid to ask
Just a thought

Now I'm going to have to start swearing in Mexican Spanish as well just to fully cover this foolery.
First my $200 eval board arrives missing pieces. I'm pretty sure it was NXP and not Mouser's doing, because google turned up at least one other person with the issue, and they ordered straight from NXP. Worse, there was a bad or missing component on the board (i can't see it) that prevents the demo from running. I have a meeting coming up for which I need to have run some benchmarks on this chip and so I can't return the board yet - I don't have time to get a replacement. Luckily mouser is giving me 90 days to return it, but I think I'll just take the credit on my account instead of getting a new board.
Then, heaven help me the MCUXspresso IDE just hangs installing the SDK. I posted on /r/embedded about it. The solution i was given was "When I ran into that I closed it waited a day, ran it again and it worked". I waited a day. Ran it again. It worked. *headdesk*. Internet something something. *grumble*  
In the meantime I find another way to do it using VS Code, which I prefer, but I run their standalone installer, and the damned thing reboots me system with no warning. For a bit I thought it was malware and I had been faked out, but no, just a very ill behaved installer, with inadequate documentation (for NXP users out there, this isn't the main installer, but a standalone one they give you for getting this running w/ VS Code instead of MCUxpresso IDE)
Then there's flashing. There are several different boot loaders, and you have to figure out which one works with your hardware configuration, and sometimes you can choose from more than one, but you have to flash a new boot loader to make the new one work, and different ones have different capabilities. Confusing! Fortunately, although I found this out after much hair pulling, the VS Code extension will detect and choose the appropriate one for your equipment, and preflashed bootloader.
Finally, I get a project going. I need to figure out how to get the SPI busses working with DMA, and thank god for the examples, because google turns up almost nothing. It's amazing anyone can find their way around NXP's APIs because they aren't well documented that I can find. They do a good job of documenting the hardware and registers, but anything higher level than that, like their wrappers, aside from the examples (which fortunately, are pretty extensive) I don't see much.
But now they've disabled 5 of the 6 SPI buses in code and I can't figure out how to turn them on. Modifying the appropriate header's #defines doesn't seem to actually change anything even though it should, and I don't want to try to figure out why, because that involves spelunking through a very complicated build system.
I'm nervous about using this hardware. It's a fight. Nothing like STM32, which was a fight, but I always knew it was a winnable fight. This one seems a bit beyond me. I'm not good at datasheets and fiddling with hardware reference manuals and the friggin ARM TRMs and such. They read like a phone book and my eyes glaze over quickly.
I don't know how anyone develops with these, but I imagine they've probably sat through training of some sort. I don't know how anyone can get there from here without it.

This always happens, when you start with a new hardware. After 10 years it goes better.

If Amazon didn't want people to hit Refresh every 45 seconds on their parcel tracking page, they shouldn't have added a map showing the truck's location when it's a few mere miles away from your door.

And to make it performant, they will use the help of a cache... which will be invalid every 1 second and therefore you need to press ctrl&shift&F5 while sending an sms to the pope
