The One Second Dash
The Amazon Dash is a $5 WiFi button that summons a truck to deliver you water or other stuff. Want your Dash to do something else? The popular approach is to sniff its ARP requests.

Does a compiler use all x86 instructions? (2010)
On the Z80 CPU there are so few registers and instructions that you can easily know and use them all and wish there were more of them.

Being a complete tool I of course decided to write my own -- after all, why save yourself effort when there are still wheels waiting to be reinvented?
