MuditaOS: Will your alarm clock go off? Part I
Operating systems are a kind of software where code quality is critical. This time the PVS-Studio analyzer checked MuditaOS. So let's take a look at what the static analyzer found in this open-source OS.
A new writing method/technology (“dendrowriting”), as exemplified by the YearVer site
Several years have passed since the appearance of the first text markup language that supports “dendrowriting”, but no worthwhile piece of text demonstrating the advantages of the new writing method/technology has yet appeared.
The largest “dendrotext” was a couple of paragraphs in the pqmarkup documentation, consisting of only ~1300 characters and available only in Russian.
In English there was no “dendrotext” at all, as such [apart from small insertions in the documentation for the 11l programming language (e.g., ‘Boolean type’ in Built-in types)].
But last year...

CraftBot Flow IDEX XL 3D Printer Review
Created by Hungarian manufacturer CraftUnique, the CraftBot Flow IDEX XL is a large-format FDM 3D printer equipped with an independent dual extruder (IDEX). The device is aimed at designers, artists, engineers, and architects who want to create large professional prints for artistic, functional, or prototyping needs.
The build chamber of the machine has dimensions of 425 x 250 x 500 mm, providing users with a potential volume of 56 liters. The IDEX system, in which two all-metal hotends are placed in two separate print heads, allows the extruders to freely move along the X-axis. Thanks to the maximum nozzle temperature of 300 °C, the CraftBot Flow IDEX XL is compatible with an array of tough thermoplastics like ABS, Nylon, PETG, and PVA.
The majority of the functions including filament loading/unloading can be accessed via a full-color 5" touch screen located on the front panel. The connectivity options of the device include USB, Wi-Fi, and a cloud. In addition, the printer boasts a built-in camera that allows creating timelapses and controlling the machine remotely, as well as a filament runout sensor to pause printing and continue the process with the other extruder.
