There is a command iwconfig
Why to turn it off? Since with this mode on, my laptop (thinkpad t450s) was limiting the speed of upload/download (really bad for ssh connections)
to disable it: sudo iwconfig wlp3s0 power off
If not needed it is better to return it back to on.
To connect existing bitbucket repository the easiest solution is to use SSH as appeared.
Firstly, generate on your linux machine the ssh keys (public and private), use for this keygen-ssh command.
There is a nice explanation of this on the atlassian website, but it was not clear enough for me what I should do next.
As appeared it is pretty simple – from the main webpage go to the personal settings menu and add your public key from there.
Now just either clone it using ssh, either change the type from https to ssh and it all works, no need to enter password.
At the moment of time I had a raspberry Pi arrived from China and really wanted to put my hands on it.
Initially I installed the Raspbian linux on it, but ironically enough I struggled with Chinese memory card a lot and all resolved when I finally bought the well-known in the store.
So what I wanted to do: my adsl modem which I had got for free had some freezes which fixed after the reboot. With time it evolved to each day couple reboots routine.
Solution in mind: to ping some known website one time per n minutes, and, if it is not – make a reboot.
That fact that my PRi stands next to the modem was also in favor of the solution.
Continue readingI was debugging IR protocol RC5 and was regretting again and again that I still don’t have a scope at home or at least some small handy logic analyzer. All of a sudden I found the interesting item in the tool menu of Pickit2 software:
I completely forgot that the tool has a couple of useful items – uart, the logic analyzer, some kind of the debugger tool.

So I’ve heard recently about the docker and I really liked the idea to have a self-container with basically anything you want to run and test. Why I was thinking about it? Because I always was afraid of what will happen if my provider will kick me off the hosting and will I be able to move my backups to a new server with minimum effort and pain.
A long time ago, I tried to create a local server with a lot of crap settled on my pc. It worked out, but I really did not like the way how I was doing this. The idea to have it in a single self-contained place where I can (theoretically) easily move it to another server with docker running without any struggle seems way more attractive.
Continue readingSometimes the cleanest way to design a nice readable schematic in Proteus is to create a separate model with its own graphical symbol with pins attached to this model, not the fastest way but a kind of proper approach within a normal working process.
I was interested in the encoder as you may know, which is not available in the standard proteus component library, starting from a simple drawing of the symbol I would like to use at higher levels:
For the future, always forgetting how to do that.
Need to add additional CSS:
/* Make individual posts full-width */
.singular.page .hentry {padding:1em;}
.singular .entry-header,
.singular .entry-content,
.singular footer.entry-meta,
.singular #comments-title {
width: 90%;
