There is a nice politely way to ask a code here?
I'm starting to sell DS18B20 sensors. Is it polite to ask someone to work for you for free, so that you can make money doing this?! I like to test ALL devices before shipping it to the customer. As Jez says, why do you want to do this? Don't you trust your supplier? There's no justification for trusting any supplier. As the late president Reagan said, "Trust but verify." What Chico is wanting, it seems, is incoming inspection. When you purchase small quantities, i.e. <<10k units per week, the distributor won't consider you important enough to treat well, so you have to be aware that he may ship you someone else's rejects. The real problem is I'm VERY busy with the sellings And everyone else is busy with their own day jobs! Maybe someone already made this code, maybe could share "share" implies some mutual benefit - what are you proposing to offer in exchange? If you really want someone to do this for you on a commercial basis, you will need to do 2 things: Another thing would be to think a bit more about how one might accomplish what is required, and do that. In the context of incoming inspection, that's generally necessary. If it's outgoing inspection, it's just part of the initial design process. Thoughtful analysis of the task ought always to precede design. RE |
