I am also developing communications between Pi and Uno. Got the ping to work, from terminal emulator using a W5100 shield on the UNO and firmware from Integrating Wiznet W5100, WIZ811MJ network module with Atmel AVR Microcontroller | ermicroblog[^] and from terminal could do ping. Going to be expanding on this once I get the time.

I will if & when I can find the time expand on it, Arduino's are really useful for the quick and dirty, I wonder projects like this one. I was a bit dubious at first and then less dubious of the Arduino...

The UNO and in particular the ATmega328P are very versatile, I have used them in quite a few projects.

I admit I was more a MicroChip fan more than Atmel, I supposed it comes from being more familar with uChip tool chain, however I want to learn the Atmel from using the Arduino...

I got started on Atmel so it's more familiar to me, but they are similar in functionality...especially now that uChip bought Atmel
It would be hard for me to switch because I have all the tools to write and debug Atmel devices

Have you ever thought about having this every day. Get yourself an office cat[^].
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

... 'the hen's teeth' as an expression for something that does not exist. The irony of this is that one idea to 'revive' a theropod dinosaur by reactivating older inactive genes in a still existing species. That would be a bird and of all possible choices they have taken a look at the gene code of chickens to identify inactive genes for the snout (including the teeth!) or the tail.
Chickens can have teeth, but at the moment they are commented out in their configuration file.

Strange for me to say but thankfully the config got edited. I wonder does it fit the XML parameters...

No sweat. A T-Rex was a theropod and therefore a distant relative of birds, but the birds descended from smaller theropods. Reactivating some genes will not magically turn a chicken into a T-Rex. Something like a Velociraptor would be more likely.

But would it still taste like chicken?

Ahh, the more pressing point is would we taste like chicken or its contemporary?

Most likely. If our wild ancestors ever had seen a T-Rex, they most probably would still hold the world record for the biggest fried chicken.

Well, they are far more dangerous, they can open doors and chase you (ideally in kitchen). I have seen Jurassic park!

They were about the size of a turkey and even looked like a turkey because they already had feathers.

Hmmm, that brings us to the Dinos had feathers. I want my Dinos to have teeth & scales, I grew up with that. In fact if I search for them in the garage, I have plastic Dino's that kinda represented dragons minus wings...

Still no reason to panic. Only theropods had feathers, as far as we know. There still is the big question what parts of their bodies were covered with them. A bigger dinosaur like a T-Rex most probably had a similar problem as large animals have today: They have more problems cooling down their bodies than heating them up. Why don't modern elephants have a fur, like their ice age relatives had? A T-Rex that looks like a huge parrot may be very prone to overheating. At the same time nothing speaks against it having some feathers for totally different purposes, like attracting mates. That's something very common with birds and may already have been so with their ancestors.

No, they don't. They have a beak, like all birds. That's something very different from a snout. Reverse engineering the evolution of the beak actually is what the studies of inactive dinosaur DNA are all about, not really reconstructing dinosaurs. These structures of the beak may look like teeth and even have a similar function, but they are not really teeth.

I didn't write anything about teeth.
But it certainly does look like a configuration error to me.

When you are protecting the offspring against a small crowd of gawkers, you want to look fierce and dangerous. I think it works, so where is the error?

No. It's the other way around. The reptilian aliens are our distant cousins. I thought you did not like Star Trek[^].

I don't like Star Trek. I've watched maybe 1 of the movies.
Dinosaurs never lived here. They are an alien prank on us. Don't fall for it.
But a prank that gives us the last laugh, since we believe that prank led to us having oil.
