Sort of like: "the power is off".
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

Wrong forum. Read the message at the top and click the link that says "Got a programming question?".

Check the port number of the "Access Point" and see if it's different from "7254".

For anyone is doing any Universal Cross-Platform Apps...
I'm considering either .Net MAUI or Flutter and I'd like to get some insight into these two before I make a decision.
Thanks
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.

If I were 20 years younger I would probably go for QT for multiplatform stuff. It is a platform I know works at least for windows AND mac desktop. It also promises android.
Flutter, MAUI and the like, could be useful for somebody starting up from scratch, with the correct age and energy. However I am not convinced how truly "multiplatform" they really are. There are so many design differences between the desktop and a phone that I doubt if a single unmodified code base can target both. What kind of percent will be needed for platform specific fixes? I wonder if anybody could enlighten us

This is from the CodeProject insider. Probably most interesting for those that are old enough to be even close to remembering some of this
Building a DOS ChatGPT client in 2023 - YKM's Corner on the Web[^]
Now I didn't actually consider the software in the article much of a challenge. I can see the lack of threads as a bit of problem but back then Windows 3.1 ran on an event loop so one just needs to be careful about blocking for too long.
But what really amazed me was that there was a network card that would work.
Also kind of amusing at the end though where the author asks ChatGPT to write the code for this project and it says it can't. Guess it won't be replacing programmers yet.

Doom was a DOS game, and worked over LANs. It should come as no surprise that some NICs worked under DOS.

I used to run a 10baseT 3com NIC in a dos machine back in the day. 486DX2/66 IIRC.

Kolaches are a Czech tradition here in TX. They are buns stuffed with just about everything, fruit, meat, vegetables so a BLT in a bun is not far fetched.

From tomorrow on I'll be system architect (together with a colleague), trying to bring order into the chaos of non existant processes and a lot of different solutions for similar problems in our division, and on the same time trying to reduce complexity, make everything a bit more robust and less "manual" while bringing us into the future.
Whish me luck

Don't try and do everything all at once. One bite at a time.
Pick some low-hanging fruit to start to
- get some quick successes and impress the higher ups
- test and fine tune YOUR processes
Involve the people that will be using your solutions.
If you can steer them to the 'correct' solution and make them think it was their idea, you will get buy-in a lot faster.

Yeah, Luckily I already learned this (the hard way). I hope to not repeat the same error.
#1 - Get knowledge about the current status quo, there is a lot of variance and I don't know every permutation
#2 - Trying to get a good feedback from management about which direction do they want to take
#3 - Organize things in "can die a natural death", "it needs a double tap", "we need this and we have to take it with us"
#4 - Once the system has been cleaned up from zombies and not needed stuff, start working out how to improve it
#5 - We'll see when we come there...

That's something I have always tried when programming PLCs for others, nobody know the machine better that the one using it everyday.

That's something I know, but that I don't master (yet)
Thanks for the tips, Matthew
