This series is digital version of my notes of STM32's reference manual, and Cube Mx generated code. In the first one, I have talked about the memory architecture and also listed the peripherals provided in the STM32F446. I hope you all like it!

Would you rather take a 100 hits from a whip or eat a 100 onions? (you have to choose one or the other, there's no escape)

This week's articles - 1. Make a good frnd 2. Don't ask for success 3. Learn Analog electronics. Dedicated to my Maggi! We miss u maggu, we will carry your memories forever. - me, mom, paa and sis

So while weekend culminated with: "What the fuck are you doing with your life thing!" * And I kept on thinking ki agar X pe early start krta to monetization se paisa aata. * Agar professor ne application accept kr li hoti to aaj IISc me rehta. * Agar micro controller me pehle se interest aa jaata to aaj kisi startup me decently paying job me hota. * Agar college me ladki pe km aur android app development pe zyada dhyaan deta to aaj kisi jagah pe senior android developer hota Ghar waalo ko mere me stability chahiye, employers ko mere me skills chahiye, professors ko mere application me top degrees and top colleges chahiye, ladki ko mere me thodi maturity n seriousness chahiye and mujhko mere me wo rich dad k sons jaisi lifestyle, low fat physique chahiye. I feel like the person jisne apni life ka easiest path to success bohot saal pehle hi kho diya h. Can't blame my family, the did everything to deserve a talented, mature, and intelligent child, but they got a rebel like me. Can't blame myself because everything I did was on my own, comeback in studies, comeback from lowest times, saving myself from bad addictions, compromising on stuff that most of the ppl of my age do, hiding what I feel and yet listening to them, and so on. Whom should I blame? I feel like a guy born in wrong era, ek generation aage ya ek generation peeche paida hota to shayad life itni miserable ni hoti. The hardest part of dealing with everything is that the parents don't have faith in me, they want instant results. Professors and CTOs needs kids with ready made skills and don't care for someone with a curious mind. Behen k laudo, agar mai 2 month me sabkuch se deal krte hue tumhe letter likhne ki capacity pe aa gya hu, to 3 ya 6 month sirf tumhara kaam krte hue mai kaha pahuch jaunga? Lekin nahi, sb ko pehle se seekha hua banda chahiye. All I need is an environment where I can focus on one thing with 0 need to think about anything else. But I think it is too much to ask.

We ain't 1% of this legend. I urge everyone to read about M. Vishweshvaraya, whose birthday (today) is celebrated as Engineer's day in India.

I have sent the email on this auspicious day of Bappa. Please pray that I get the opportunity to work at one of the most amazing labs in IISc BLR. 🤞

Today's goal

I am sceptical of future me fumbling the interview for an embedded system developer role. Reason: I am using STM32 HAL. While HAL in itself is not a bad thing, but it encapsulates a lot of imp stuff. That is why I am working on a series of articles, where I deep dive into the HAL and explain the low-level stuff it is hiding. So, I urge all of you to read them, ask questions to me in DM/comments, because if I can explain the stuff to you, I know the stuff. Here is the first one in the series: medium.com/@the.zarth.dev/st…

Maybe now you can appreciate how f-ing cool @QVHenkel's work is.

And at last I thank myself to choose HAL over bare-metal because look how much code did it write for me. in my main.c file.

took 2 120 minute sessions, but the draft is ready. Here is what @ChatGPT has to say about it: (I dont know if it is a compliment or a warning)

Joined 800 waali gym. Now I see wannabe gangsters, gelchod exercises, weird Haryanvi songs, damaged equipments, etc. Fact that me at my peak could out lift 95% of these makes them look more funny.

Locking in for the next 120 minutes on it. Manifesting an IISc internship from this, I might be too greedy now, but someone says: 'Always let your reach be beyond your grasp..'
