One and only annoying problem with pacman :
warning: dependency cycle detected:
After long time searching I found a reliable solution.
Let’s look at how we can make it - walk in the park!.

Let’s look how it faired for me! - without loosing my sleep of it.
May be it might help you in some way.
...Finding our difference between files is a common thing I used to do.
For most of the time I had the trusty k3diff.
Things got messy with command line and scripting the difference job.
I am not sure how many times I searched for diff command linux in Google.
Also, do manual patching not knowing the patch command was a handicap.
Hence after much spite, I have decided to log it down here.
Now, who does not know about J-Link in the embedded community.
...This is Quick way to install it in my favorite Manjaro Linux
It has been complicated to understand the cryptic number system of Nordic Semiconductor development boards.
They don’t mention it clearly in their infocenter site also.
I decided, I had enough trouble loosing hair on this one.
Solving this mystery was imperative.

The TL866II Plus is a Parallel programmer. Freqenty used in my lab for programming age old chips like AT89C51.
One might wonder what use I have for these old 8051. Well I have big box full of these ! And many of my project still run 8051. Yes!
All this time, Windows was the only way for this programmer.
Since, I am using Manjaro Linux wanted it to work there.
Lets look at how I mad this possible.
...I wanted to have a screen sharing session with some one over Hangouts. We all know that it does not work well in Firefox so needed chrome.

Using Raspberry Pi for
your IoT experiments - a given.
Like the white hair on my head.
Many don’t realize the real threat it poses these days to security.
There have been many reports of IoT devices being hijacked.
And then used for malicious purposes. Like peeping into your
drawer. Even worst looking into your code.
I don’t want people to know how many cockroaches
and worms lie hidden in my old code. ;-)
...Well, instead of loosing your night’s sleep read this.
This started a quest to design the perfect cycle delay
for one of my favorite MCUs the STM8.
In the process I learned a lot about custom pipeline and execution of in
proprietary MCU such as STM8S.
