alt Hacker NewsThis kind of stuff is why devs doing safety critical work often painfully reinvent the wheel. Even if you’ve personally read the code yourself and think you understand it, there’s always some latent defect that arises from someone else’s bad assumptions.
Yeah. Actually, as I read it, I'm not sure if the robot is running WebRTC or not (In my comment I assumed it was)
But yeah it would be much more predictable for everyone if the robot didn't use WebRTC or the fancy logging library, and there was a WebRTC shim on the laptop to get the visuals into a browser.
The longer I think about that 10 ms control loop, the more I hope they aren't running any WebRTC thing on the same hardware cores as the control loop.
