How are you going to be able to use all 3 cores? I'm a bit ignorant here, but I have seen some code from hardware guys that makes me shudder. They typically write their own loops and have a semi general understanding of task scheduling, but <honest admission=""> I tend to overthink things at times.

I have low level ways to activate the cores without a scheduler.

I am a long term fan of H2G2, and I always thought that the theme tune was created by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. I just found out that the theme was actually written by the Eagles[^]. Someone smacked my gob, I'm that gobsmacked.

I didn't know that either!

This was my favourite theme tune for any programme from the BBC. Now that I know this, I can listen to it at any time. I am so happy.

Unusual one for The Eagles Pete

I know. I wouldn't have thought that they were the usual suspects for a group like the Eagles.

Way back in University, my roommates DJed on the student radio station.
They borrowed the H2G2 tapes and we had an H2G2 party to beat all parties with the episodes playing.
We even created a version of the classic Penta-Galactic Gargle Blaster.
From what I remember, a good time was had by all.
I did wake up feeling like I had a brain the size of a planet.

The original radio play is on the internet archive.
That's my favorite version of HHG.

I got the radio version when it was first released by the BBC.

I didn't think I'd build out my benchmarks for this product we're about to pitch to investors by the time of our meeting tomorrow. The deadline was dropped on me last minute. I said no guarantees that I'd have *anything* due to all of the unknowns and hurdles I had in front of me.
I
1. Fixed CubeMX's rendering issues caused by having a decent GPU in my system and Java being characteristically awful.
2. Fixed CubeMX hanging whenever I try to create a new project
3. Convinced CubeMX to generate a makefile i could use with the GCC arm cross compiler
4. Made a C# program that generated makefile content to import LVGL into the project
5. Found my way around Cube such that I was able to enable DMA, 6 SPI busses with DMA, Chrom-Art acceleration, DMA2D acceleration, CPU instruction caching (disabled by default!)
6. Learned how to hack GCC linker scripts so I could both use all of the RAM available (it's segmented) and actually fit the code into RAM.
7. Learned how to convince LVGL to use multiple displays, and all the STM32 and ARM hardware graphics acceleration available
8. Learned SPI/DMA under STM32
9. Structured a workflow and source tree where I can get CubeMX to regenerate the code for my project whenever i make a settings change without blowing up all my code
10. Orchestrated framerate counting and some phony IO to give me the data I needed for the meeting. I didn't think I'd have it benching this deep. I thought I wouldn't have LVGL integrated by today EOB.
Gosh, I got lucky. Man, I feel good about this. It's almost like I know what I'm doing, but that can't be right.

Well, in a couple of years I could accomplish the same.

Frankly, I'm a bit shocked myself. My estimate would have been two weeks. It was closer to two days.
I crammed, but even then, I'm surprised that it bore fruit.

Yeah, and it always makes the rest of us look like slackers.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.
