JS #hardware analog #simulation of a fan control circuit with a MOSFET
Steve Yegge’s explanation in 2007 of why #JS was going to be the next big language, along with the definition of “Go Ugly Early”: “#1 C-like syntax. #2 Dynamic typing with optional static types. #3 Performance. #4 Tools. #5 Kitchen Sink: 1. Object-literal syntax for arrays and hashes; 2. Array slicing and other intelligent collection operators; 3. Perl 5 compatible regular expression literals; 4. Destructuring bind (e.g. x, y = returnTwoValues()); 5. Function literals and first-class, non-broken closures; 6. Standard OOP with classes, instances, interfaces, polymorphism, etc.; 7. Visibility quantifiers (public/private/protected); 8. Iterators and generators; 9. List comprehensions; 10. Namespaces and packages; 11. Cross-platform GUI; 12. Operator overloading; 13. Keyword and rest parameters; 14. First-class parser and AST support; 15. Static typing and duck typing; 16. Type expressions and statically checkable semantics; 17. Solid string and collection libraries; 18. Strings and streams act like collections. #6 Multi-Platform.”
Nubbeo, one of various Mercadolibre vendors of #ESP8266 #hardware in Buenos Aires, sells this 8-pin “Modulo Wifi Esp8266 Serie Stack Tcp Ip Antena Arduino Nubbeo” with #pricing of AR$160 (US$10) and has sold 860 (!) of them.
Another Mercadolibre vendor sells ATMega328P-PU #AVR #hardware with #pricing of AR$45 (US$3).
However, ATMega328 #AVR #hardware in a 32TQFP package has #pricing of AR$120 (US$8). Also that’s in Mendoza.
And #Arduino Nano #AVR #hardware has #pricing of AR$91 (US$6).
