| 15:12 | <@gnolam> | And now: to implement support for hardware I have neither documentation for nor access to. This'll be fun. |
| 15:12 | <@gnolam> | In the Dwarf Fortress sense. |
| 15:13 | <&ToxicFrog> | No matter what they try to do with it, return ENOANO, no anode |
| 15:14 | <&ToxicFrog> | Or possibly EHWPOISON |

| 21:56 | <&McMartin> | gnolam: Ugh |
| 21:57 | | * McMartin has been implementing to published standards for a month now and it feels similarly bad though without the handy excuse of "no access to hardware or documentation" |
| 21:57 | <&McMartin> | Though the documentation available to me feels worse than useless |
| 22:17 | <@gnolam> | The battle plan is to insert a shim layer between the existing solution and the driver, log every API call and so figure out how it works. |
| 22:18 | <@gnolam> | Unfortunately, this will have to be done in a literal production environment. |
| 22:18 | <@gnolam> | As in "a factory floor". |
| 22:18 | <@abudhabi_> | TIL that C# forbids fallthrough in switch statements. |
| 22:19 | <&McMartin> | I forget. Does it forbid it or does it have an explicit fallthrough keyword? |
| 22:20 | <@abudhabi_> | I have not explored that far. VS complained at me for leaving out break;. |
| 22:20 | <&McMartin> | Yeah |
| 22:20 | <@abudhabi_> | I guess it makes sense. Prevents silly errors like the demon lord bug in Nethack. |
| 22:23 | <~Vornicus> | There is an explicit "fallthrough" which is, iirc, a goto |
| 22:24 | <&McMartin> | You know what is also a goto |
| 22:24 | <&McMartin> | switch |
| 22:24 | <&McMartin> | I dunno if Duff's Device can be made to work in C# but I bet it's not a good idea~ |
| 22:24 | <~Vornicus> | Definitely not |
| 22:25 | <&McMartin> | gnolam: (1) argh but (2) that sounds like a good plan and I endorse it |
| 22:25 | <&McMartin> | Even if it is not the best possible plan I think it gets useful results the fastest |
| 22:25 | <&McMartin> | And possibly faster than "attempt to make sense of the terrible documentation" |
| 22:26 | <&McMartin> | Assuming you had it |
| 22:28 | <@gnolam> | There is zero documentation. |
| 22:30 | <~Vornicus> | mmm, i don't know where i got my bit about goto |
| 22:30 | <@gnolam> | I will do my best GIR impression as I hit various buttons and go "What's this do!?" "What's that do!?". |
