15:42 <whitequark> a friend of mine wants to use some own NIH-syndrome-induced protocol for a wireless sensor

15:42 <whitequark> any reasons to convince him to use 6lowpan?

15:56 <wolfspraul> he would probably not agree with your NIH-syndrome diagnosis

15:56 <wolfspraul> if he likes he can come to this channel and we think about the pros and cons of rf options for his sensors

15:56 <wolfspraul> I think he should go the shortest path to a working solution for him

15:57 <wolfspraul> and maybe what he currently has in mind will do just that for him? don't know...

15:58 <whitequark> wolfspraul: do you recall what I've said about russians and their English skills?..

15:58 <whitequark> ahem

15:58 <wpwrak> depends a bit on what platform he uses and how much work he plans to put into it. if it's a platform already supported by linux or contiki, then it should be easy. for some one-man diy project, of course, whatever works will do :)

15:58 <whitequark> oh, he personally hates linux and likes RSX-11 a lot, but that's not the reason here

15:59 <whitequark> he says that the standard protocols are bloated and not energy efficient, which I doubt, but I haven't worked with 6lowpan, for example

15:59 <whitequark> (bloated as both in code size and packet size)

16:00 <whitequark> and he needs guaranteed delivery for at least firmware upgrade

16:01 <wpwrak> good luck with that ;-)

16:02 <whitequark> (well, some of things he says about linux are quite valid. for example, the absence of async I/O)

16:05 <wolfspraul> seems very opinionated

16:05 <wolfspraul> in theory of course if he makes his own semiconductors etc he can implement all he wants in hardware and have the perfect energy efficiency

16:06 <wolfspraul> 28nm lithography of course

16:06 <wolfspraul> :-)

16:06 <whitequark> heh

16:06 <wolfspraul> if he wants to get something working soon he will have to take a different path and reasoning

16:07 <whitequark> he's not a fanatic, and actually he's kind of asked me for advice on what to use--he's not sure that the NIH route is the way to go

16:10 <whitequark> now that I look at it, 6lowpan may be really bloated for this application

20:48 <Artyom> Kristianpaul hello! :)

21:18 <kristianpaul> hi

21:20 <kristianpaul> woakas: hey

21:21 <kristianpaul> woakas: if you still interested in a nanonote with amazon it will be 94usd plus 40usd shipping handling with coordinadorausa

21:34 <woakas> kristianpaul: yes

21:35 <woakas> kristianpaul: you want one?

21:46 <kristianpaul> woakas: i have mine,no more for now but i can give you mail for other guys interested..

21:47 <kristianpaul> at least this time from the USA is cheaper than from Taiwan it seems
