How to build maintainable I2C chip drivers for sensors, ADCs, EEPROMs, GPIO expanders, and other peripheral devices without leaking bus details into application code.

A practical debugging workflow for C and C++ firmware, drivers, Linux utilities, and test tools: capture failures, replay inputs, instrument boundaries, protect timing, and verify fixes.

How to structure Qt instrument GUIs so serial, USB, TCP, and SCPI hardware failures do not freeze widgets, hide stale data, or leave operators guessing.

Ten firmware habits that make bring-up easier, expose faults earlier, and keep common embedded failures from hiding in drivers, interrupts, buffers, or timing code.
