I'm learning the USB wire protocol. I don't want to. I have to implement a USB endpoint on some hardware and I've never done it from scratch before. What a PITA.
The protocol was clearly designed by committee.

Just be thankful you haven't got FireWire to do, My first Boss was involved in the definition of the standard.
FireWire I'm sure was a way not define a standard.

I used the Serial Port Complete & Parallel Port Complete for early stuff (VB6!) got a copy of USB Complete and never really used it, all of the USB ports I had to interface to appeared as COM ports.

I wish you the best of luck. May your code work on the first few tries.

My view is, if my code works for the Demo and the acceptance trials it becomes someone elses problem!

Yes, and I usually was the programmer who picked up maintenance. At two companies I worked for, I specialized in it!

Working things aren't simple, and there is no way a thing with Universal in the name can be simple anyway.

Wasn't really hoping for something simple, just sensible. Actually to be honest I was expecting something designed by committee, and that's what I got.

It had to be designed a committee, from real-time data transfer to switching the voltage/current level of a PSU through autoconfig with hubs in the line without kneeling down like Ethernet due to congestion is quite a wide range for a single spec.
Worthy challenge, you will be master of a new field.

Yeah. I mean, I understand why. Especially when you consider you have to make it work across multiple vendors and if they don't get a say they'll make their own standard.
Mainly, I'm just complaining - I don't like the products of committees typically. I can't quite articulate why at the moment, other than to say it seems stifling the way things are put together. But I can always tell when something was put together by a committee.
Anyway, I'll figure it out.

Because 'weird' is an anagram of 'wired'

Well, those of us who earned our wings working 40 years ago with Commodore's digital serial protocol (IEC Bus), we don't find USB's spec weird at all. Next!

Today, being March 14, must be Pi day.
Ok, I have had my coffee, so you can all come out now!

Inverse Pi day is the 113th day of a 355-day Lunar year.

How come sinewaves don't get their own day? Is oscillation not as cool as a circle?

It also has a time. Most mornings I have to get up around 3.14 to go for a pi... 
|
|
|
|
|
I also have a pi several times a night, but one has to do a 2*pi*r each time unless one wears diapers.

I would like to celebrate "Golden Ratio 1.618" but it has no day
