<DC-IRC> <harbin> Hello. I found that there’s an alpha version for the Orange Pi 800, but as far as I can tell there’s no movement recently on this. Does anyone know anything about it?
<DC-IRC> <Werner> We do not have anyone that was to take care for this thing. Anyone can set up as maintainer and bring it into decent shape. Then there will be proper versions for it.
<DC-IRC> <drew$dinero> What language are the armbian scripts in? I would like to become Orange Pi maintainer eventually
<DC-IRC> <amazingfate> Mostly shell, and some python.
<DC-IRC> <amazingfate> Armbian has provided a very best build framework which makes supporting new boards much easier.
<DC-IRC> <drew$dinero> Do you happen to know what dialect of shell?
<DC-IRC> <amazingfate> Should be bash 5.x
<DC-IRC> <North_wind> Let me disagree. When I see such a code on a student's exam, I usually give the lowest grade. https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/da0ab48b7939235608c8fc042c61ae997681e865/lib/functions/rootfs/create-cache.sh#L15-L17
<DC-IRC> <North_wind> There is no sense in the previous lines.
<DC-IRC> <North_wind> Can you explain why this was done?
<DC-IRC> <amazingfate> I can't because it's not me who wrote this code. If you care about it why don't you improve it?
<DC-IRC> <North_wind> I've just been reading the code for a few days.
<DC-IRC> <North_wind> And I wanted to ask you something.
<DC-IRC> <North_wind> But I saw something in the code that causes mixed emotions.
<DC-IRC> <North_wind> Excuse me. My questions definitely don't apply to you.
<DC-IRC> <amazingfate> Use git blame and you can know the author, then create a pull request or an issue to discuss with him.
<DC-IRC> <amazingfate> I don't care much about the `student grade` like you.
<DC-IRC> <North_wind> Or does the student not care about the grade
<DC-IRC> <amazingfate> I am not a student. I just use the code. When I find a bug I will try to fix it.
<DC-IRC> <IgorPec> if you find something that is ugly and need fixing, send a PR. I think most of developers are aware of the dirty code, "just" time to fix is a problem
<DC-IRC> <North_wind> Well
<DC-IRC> <Tonymac32> When I'm digging a ditch, I'm not worried about the beauty of the shovel. Improvements to the shovel are always appreciated though.
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> It should ai-dig right?
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> lol
<DC-IRC> <Tonymac32> dig-gpt
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> isn't that the buzzword of the day
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> lol
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> dig-gpt... haahaa
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> "That shovel is for mud only.. You want this one for semi wet clay"
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> @MacKahan hey.. actual RK Q... do you have any RK3568's running atm?
<DC-IRC> <Tonymac32> I keep meaning to get my R5S running, but keep saying I'll do it later
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> Ok. Yeah its been a low priority here too but now that its in mainline I'm thinking I'm going to start looking at it again
<DC-IRC> <Tonymac32> yeah same
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> I have one idling that is fairly decent (the Odroid-M1) I really should use
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> This is very terrible indeed. I'd bet €10 I'm to blame. Send a PR?
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> Again, this might make sense to you _now_ after some refactoring. I did _not_ before. Finish it up and send a PR?
