Rvalue References in C++11

Rvalue references were introduced in the C++11 standard in September 2011, offering powerful capabilities for optimizing C++ code. Despite being a fundamental feature, rvalue references can seem daunting to C++ beginners. In this guide, we will demystify rvalue references and explore how they contribute to efficient and modern C++ programming.

Controlling the ACT LED on RPi B+

The RPi boards generally have two LEDs on board. The first, PWR LED represents the power in the board and the second ACT LED can be programmatically controlled. The ACT LED is easy to control and can be used as a good indicator that my code running on the RPi until I can get complex output functions to get working.

Writing an OS for RPi B+ - Intro

I got my hands on a second hand Raspberry Pi 1 B+ for just 4$. For those who don’t know it’s a credit card sized computer capable of running linux. It is powered by a ARM processor and has 512MB of RAM. It also had an ethernet port, HDMI output, 3.5mm audio jack and 4 USB ports. It’s a popular hardware among the electronic hobbyists.

The Highly Awaited Japan Trip

I finally decide to just post this draft as is. This trip was undertaken 2019, one of my last before covid stuck. I have been procrastinating on working with this particular blog post for god nows how long. After starting a job it has become harder to find time to work on blogging. I guess I will just put it out in the dilapidated state and get over with it. Let’s go back to 2019.

I finally decided that it is now or never time to plan a trip to Japan. Unfortunately, I was unable to find someone willing to accompany me on the trip. But I decided to go ahead with my plan anyway. Hence I ended up making a one-week solo trip to Japan.

But I was already late for the trip as I wanted to plan the trip for the first week of October, but it was already mid-September when I decided to go for the journey. So I had to make the bookings/planning and get the visa in 10 days. It was easier since I already had an idea of what I wanted to do in Japan. I wanted to experience the otaku culture that I have been watching in anime for the past couple of years.

Introduction to Wireless Physical Layer

Recently I started working on the physical layer of 5G NR. And whenever any of my friends asked me about my work, I always ended giving them a primer on wireless communication before I could start talking about my work. And hence this blog to generate awareness about the area that I have been working on for the past few months.
