A computer chip holding a purple video game controller and playing a mario-like game, with as main character a computer chip.

Video games used to ask the user not to turn off or unplug the console, but this isn't a luxury that my bootloader has :/

Today's article is about verifying that my code won't break in this scenario, through Software Fault Injection and some neat #Rust tricks:

Maybe a mid blueish for monsters? So that saturation can be used to tell visible cards apart from hidden ones, and warmth for hero and monster?

I liked the light background, lets you clearly tell the visible cards apart from the hidden cards

MCU Bootloaders: Boxing up How do bootloaders for microcontrollers know where the application to update is? When to update it? Find out in this third part of a series exploring bootloaders for microcontrollers!

Today I'm glad to showcase the third article in my blog series about microcontrollers and bootloaders, where I teach my example bootloader where and when to update!

I hope you'll enjoy this one as much as I did while illustrating it:

A computer chip standing on its pins, looking up and saying a question mark.

A month ago I started an illustrated blog series on the subject of my master's thesis: #microcontrollers (tiny computers) and how to update many of them.

These articles should be easy to follow, even if you never did #embedded software :)

I still have one more whose face I need to embroider, but I don't know which expression to make.

The pattern is called "Mabel the Chicken", by Oak & Marlow.
