Like they said, if you use a language for which serializers aren’t written yet, you can write the encoded event yourself. Here are both the recipe and the link:
| 0 | Magic Byte | Confluent serialization format version number; currently always 0. |
| 1-4 | Schema ID | 4-byte schema ID as returned by Schema Registry. |
| 5-… | Data |

Sometimes when using a program linked with librdkafka, you can encounter the ‘symbol lookup error.
Most of the time it’s because your program have been linked to an old version of librdkafka in your system (like outdated RedHat librdkafka yum package VS the latest build from librdkafka’s git)
Solutions:
-Check your LD_LIBRARY_PATH, be sure to find the directories containing latest librdkafka .so file is listed first
-Check what’s installed on your system
-In some case you will have to rebuild your project, having a proper LD_LIBRARY_PATH configured before
#KAFKA #C #librdkafka
In case you’re building yourself everything from source in your project, there is a good chance you once had a problem because you were using relative (like ../myressource) paths in your CFLAGS or LD_FLAGS definition and passed them down to the build system.
Short answer: when getting down in sub directories to i.e build your dependencies, the relative path can’t stay good. Only the absolute path can work.
One solution, if using GNU make, is to use something like this to compute the absolute path:
RES_RELATIVE_PATH=./path_to_my_ressource
RES_ABSOLUTE_PATH=$(realpath $(RES_RELATIVE_PATH))
CFLAGS+= -I$(RES_ABSOLUTE_PATH)
# Note: the naming is up to you. In my case, for something like cJSON, I'm using the following naming:
CJSON_RELPATH=./external/cJSON
CJSON_PATH=$(realpath $(CJSON_RELPATH))
CFLAGS+= -I$(CJSON_PATH)You can also directly initialize with a shell call:
CJSON_CFLAGS=-I$(shell realpath "./external/cJSON")
CFLAGS+= $(CJSON_FLAGS)#code #makefile #gnu #path #absolute #relative
Recently I stumbled upon that kind of error when trying to update a submodule:
git submodule update –remote –merge
fatal: unable to access ‘https://github.com/DaveGamble/cJSON.git/’: Received HTTP code 407 from proxy after CONNECT
Turns out that it was the proxy authentification not being sent correctly.
In our case we are using system defined proxy, so we do not need git’s ones
Solved by using:
git config –global http.proxyAuthMethod ‘basic’
git config –global –unset http.proxy
git config –global –unset https.proxy
Some also encountered SSL verification problems due to auto signed certificate use in their network, and had to disable SSL verification. It’ done with the following command, but we do not recommend to use it unless really needed:
git config –global http.sslVerify false
Have you even stumbled upon a strange warning when trying to print an uint64_t or a size_t ?
Do no take that warning lightly, as your code can break anytime if you’re not fixing it.
Warning example:
warning: format '%llu' expects argument of type 'long long unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'uint64_t' [-Wformat]
#include <inttypes.h>
uint64_t i;
printf("%"PRIu64"\n", i);
Macros for printf family can be found here.
The level app is as simple as possible and allow you to monitor available level meters in a single view.
There is a live graph of each RSSI values and power level.

Edit: it’s the hundredth post of that blog, yay !
KrampusHack 2022 is opened and starting on December 13 to December 31 !
goal. You are secret santa – create a surprising gift for a selected participant.
On Tuesday 13 December 2022, you will be assigned one of the other participants and you have to make your game as a gift for them (Once the competition starts, you can read here for whom you have to make a gift).
Everyone should post a wishlist of features that they would like to see in the game. Note this is a wishlist and not a requirement list – you should tune the game to your giftee, taking the wishlist as well as the person itself into account, and create something that is a nice and thoughtful surprise to them. To make your wish list easily findable, simply post it on your own log.
Rules: https://tins.amarillion.org/krampu22/rules

I was searching about a very specific warning that the gcc compiler started to sprout some few weeks ago:
That I extracted and translated from the original that was in French:
“/usr/bin/ld: warning: xxxxxxx.o: requires executable stack (because the .note.GNU-stack section is executable)”
And I stumbled upon that little gem page was one of the few to have a correct explanation:
https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/linkers-warnings-about-executable-stacks-and-segments
And also a few more here:

If ever you have to remove a commit from a pushed pull request, here is a simple way to do it. Bonus: it’s not adding a commit for the removal.
First be sure to be on the good branch
git checkout target-pull-request-branch
Then have a watch at the PRs commit tab and note the commits hash you want to remove (one or more)
Replace X by that number in the following command, which will make and interactive rebase for the X last commits
git rebase -i HEAD~X
You are now going to have an interactive text view, in which all the aimed commits are preceded by the word ‘pick’
Using the view like a text editor, replace the ‘pick’ word by ‘drop’ on the lines containing the targeted commit’s hashes .
Exemple
Replaced pick with drop for commits 4aa3149 and 2031a79b:
Save and exit
In my case vim was the default text editor, so here you go escape colon w q
Push force the rebased repository
git push --force
This will remove the targeted commits and the only trace will be in the PR comments. The commit page will look like the rebased one, without the discarded commits nor a mention to them.
KAFKA is in all mouths these days. So I share here, also as a reminder for me, a couple of #KAFKA ressources that looked helpful to me.
TLDR:
Do not use KAFKA for:
-“Little” Data flows (overkill)
-Streaming ETL (handling transformation is a hassle)
-Store and process large files (images, videos, proprietary files, etc.)

I was reading a changelog from a library I love (unrelated but here is the link: https://liballeg.org/ ) and I stumble upon that change:
“Use clock_gettime with CLOCK_MONOTONIC instead of gettimeofday (check-switch-26)”
Then I did a bit of research on the topic, and found a good explanation here:
https://blog.habets.se/2010/09/gettimeofday-should-never-be-used-to-measure-time.html
TLDR: if you use gettimeofday to time things then your program may be affected by time shift, because gettimeofday is not monotonic. if you do not care about the date and only about elapsed time, use clock_gettime.
On top of the existing ‘search and stay X seconds after a match’ the SearchApp have been updated with a ‘search and stay’ mode: stay while matching, leave after X seconds of inactivity, reset counters on activity during the wait. mode,
To use it just specify a negative value in the ‘wait’ field using the rotary encoder.

If ever you try to make a table with a single <td> matching more than one line using rowspan, your css that was using nth-child to customize each column is working badly. Only the first line of each rowspan is correctly recognized by the nth-child. All other lines are all shifted by one.
That’s because the css engine is not taking in accound the rowspan attribute.
Solution:
In my case it was to add all the <td> hidden by the rowspan like <td style=”display:none”> so they are here for the css engine to count properly, but not displayed at all.
