- No syntax highlighting
- vi with only basic motions
- single terminal fullscreen
- comic sans font
I trust this man with my life
Yeah, this guy the equivalent an NBA athlete while the rest of us barely making the D-league if not college ball, lol
Yeah, its really easy once you have full knowledge of both the Kernel and how to communicate with USBs.

you inspire me to be better
Haven't basically all web developpers been replaced by ChatGPT by now?
That’s a tough comparison. Web dev is so multifaceted and always involves cleaning up someone else’s mess and trying to clean up a tangled fractal of dependencies. It’s a lot of organization and searching, a little less fun engineering
@@tropicaljupiter you just gave me a new perspective of web development. never thought of seeing it that way since I never compared it to system development. thank you for that
I do not know how many times will you guys hit me but web development comes to me as folder structuring.
@@cerberusrap that's not completely wrong
Developers like this are what allow me to write silly little games with C# in a feature packed IDE. God bless you glorious dev
i just finished learning the basics of python and now youtube recommends this video to me and it feels like i have just touched a drop in the vast sea of computer science. i did not understand one thing you did but good work
Happy you learned something!
I work as a full stack developer mainly with next and mern. And, honestly I feel so stupid when i watch this kind of programmers writing codes. So much knowledge in low level languages, memory management and all the brain f things they do. Beautifully written code. Just wow❤
Me right now as well lol!
Yeah but that's all they do and to be honest C hasn't changed much in the last years.
WTF is Even a full stack dev nowadays?
There are so many full stack environments.

Man, quiet down, they just know the machine and how to control it. It's another job from yours, not magic lol
@@Loki_Dokie I still remember a listing where a company wanted someone with 6 years of experience with Swift when Swift had only been out for 4 years.
One of the leads on Swift's development actually posted that he wouldn't qualify since he had only started work on the language in earnest 5 years prior.
This is literally so awesome I've been waiting for a video for usb drivers in Linux, thank you
I'm a Javascript/Nextjs dev and watching this I feel like I have no clue about programming. Good vid!
Suddenly transitioning from a high level language to a low level one does that to you.
Most js devs don't have clue about how hardware works
Well most JS developers don't even work with vanilla JS but with frameworks which sadly turns a lot of developers into frameworkers.
You would be correct - in general, JS devs don’t have a clue about programming 😂
Obv exaggerating a bit but defo applies to an extent on stuff close to the hardware
Its kind of simple when you get into it. You just have to think like that hardware. Just put some hours in it. Start with turning on and of some leds on sbc and build it up from there. if you like this kind of thing. :)
i work at a company with like 100 people and half of them are this level. a couple of the guy have thousands of commits on linux kernel. i am in awe, as a scrub who uses python and go
Where do you work at? 🧐 Some military company? Just curious
This is so valuable. Thank you for uploading these
I am a developer these dudes are next level, thanks for your time and contributions.
Yes they are. The best of the best for the most part.
Just pure, raw vi. This is what peak programming looks like

@@sophokles8244 because it's a simple youtube comment, not a research paper.
I came here to take a peek at how does a USB driver work in general. But I'm more entertained by the workspace environment, with the Comic Code font, flat color, and everything lol.
I can't lie, dudes like this gives me the drive to want to actually learn low level programming it's just soo cool
Sooooooo much programming video perform by programmer in youtube, but person like this is the true programmer...
I started with Linux 6 months ago, and this video make me feel how much there are still for learn, i will work hard and i will be happy if i will arrive only at the 1% of the knowledge of this guy!! Really congratulations for the awesome video!!
This video randomly popped up on my youtube feed. I have absolutely no clue about what this guys is doing or talking about but I know this guy is a supreme lord of what he's doing.
Can't get enough of these videos. They're so well-made and informative.
Thank you very much for uploading this!
this font is a crime
lol
That font's purpose is to be readable, It helps dyslexic people alot.
No matter how much people hate on fonts like Comic Sans, but those fonts complete their task of being easily readable.
It started as a joke, and I unexpectedly liked it.
@@renerebe do u know any usb pcie cards that are linux compatible?
Don't most if not all just work?
As someone who uses linux on my home desktop, thank you for all the hard work you do for the community.
Finally youtube recommended your channel! Good to see the numbers getting higher! Nice René
Any dev in some point just dream about having this kind of job in some future🤙
If you are willing to put on the time and effort, also expect that it's going to be a very challenging path. This is the line of work where very few get the job.
Writing a USB driver is your dream! 😂
This guy is proof we ve been invaded by aliens.
Whenever I feel like I'm somewhat good at programming I watch this video
I am both impressed by the skills of this man and also never want to touch any kind of code ever again
Hehe, I am a daily Linux user, I would say mid, can manage servers, use Linux PC, I can write shell scripts for typical scenarios, I am way far to understand everything René says, but sometimes I find myself drinking, playing around with Linux, and listening to 3 hours on the other monitor René mastering Kernel development 😂
Thanks René, you're the best motivational, and Linux developer, keep it up 🔥🔥
I have no idea what you just said in the video, but this is super cool and I really like the video!
This is how real men write code.
And the comic font makes it look even more hand-written.
I miss my coding years in the '80s-'90s
nothing less real about using modern tools. shits toxic as fuck.
No, this is stupid.
What is stupid and toxic? Modern IDEs that are huge and dog slow and don't even work over SSH ?
@@renerebe they're not dog slow, sounds like a skill issue. even if they were, the productivity speedups over this nonsense almost certainly sum significantly net positive. and they can absolutely work over SSH. sounds like you have no clue what you're talking about and you're doing this for style points and you've fooled enough people so why let me bother you?
Not once did an IDE make me program faster. Only being able to auto complete code with an IDE sound like a skill issue to me. Also I never found an ide even working well on the million lines code base of the Linux kernel or Firefox. VScode is based in a web browser. Of course it is 100x slower than IDEs used to be.
Thanks, I can finally complete my take-home assignment for an entry-level, reverse-paying internship at a BPO
We appreciate people with your level of talent & your opensource contributions!
Interesting video. 25 years ago I tried to start writing a driver for some USB-DVB-S device (edit: it was an internal PCI DVB-S-card) for BeOS (these were the times when I was still watching TV), thinking "I don't know at all what I'm doing, but maybe I'll get somewhere if I just start doing it". I maybe got some little thing working, but it never went anywhere. Driver development is something else...
you made that tiny shot of coffee last 3h, impressive. i suspect you coded the heart reaction to be automated on our comments too :)
It's 1 am and somehow I ended up here. Might as well try to steal what you do for learning purposes. Much respect!
Really enjoy Rene's videos! Im a total amateur but I find incredible educational value in them. Much love and respect from Bulgaria!
You must have deep respect for a true coding professional like René. I don't have slightest idea whats going on, I'm just looking and trying to understand something, but no luck yet :)
I love youtube man,makes me able to watch very talented people like this gentleman.(I barely know anything of programming)
Great video, thanks Rene! Always love your content, been a fan coming from T2 SDE use years ago
Big respect for pure programming without syntax highlight, linting, hint,... not good DX but truly prove your coding ability.
I can't even get a pointer to work properly sometimes, and this guy just wrote the whole driver like it was nothing.
Damn.
i would never do this job, but thank you for your contribute to the linux community, I salute you
Thanks! Why wouldn't you?
@@renerebe because I hate C, ptsd from computer science degree I guess 😅

There's another one I use: Comic Mono. It was shown to me by an ex-colleague as a joke and I tried using it, and to my surprise I actually loved it for the readability.
we are ants, comparing to this mammoth .

I am so much interested and keen to learn this cool stuff, But I couldn't able to start. Your Videos spark my inspiration to start the stuff ASAP ,cuz' there ain't no perfect time to start Thanks man :)
Good to see this video making traction
It's always a pleasure to watch someone who is good at his craft.
So simple stuff, very good work!
Meanwhile I struggle to center some HTML content…
Hats of to you Sir.
Tbf, HTML is pretty crap ;-)
I'm a Senior Java Developer but I feel a 5 th year schoolboy when watching this man
Java is for noobs
Java is for nobody ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is how I feel when i can run Terraform to setup my entire cloud infrastructure on AWS including running my Linux shell scripts for Docker/Kubernetes without crashing or any errors lol.
But your skills are orders of magnitude better haha. This is awesome my good sir.
Great tutorial brother!
The biggest flex isnt even writing the USB driver, its the font.

dude, Charlie Day of the show "its always sunny" should use you as an extra in an episode where he mutated in to a genius cause he never met "the gang"
you inspired me like everyone else has said in the comments, your skill level is giga-chad coder in my book, thanks for the fuel
Insane how you get so much done with those bare tools. I see people praising you for your lack of modern tools and giving the impression that it's something to strive for. I think only people like you with a lot of experience, who don't want/need to try every new shiny thing, can pull this off. Thanks for your contributions!
Fun fact, my productivity decreases when I'm forced to use "modern" IDEs, ...
@renerebe please stop with this utter nonsense. Your skill and knowledge puts you above most, but you cant start out and code the way you do at the start. Some IDE's are poor like eclipse, but Intellij for java/spring development is hands down the professional standard, it is why every company with developers use it.
Sorry. Developer should rather focus on the code and not hope that the IDE auto completes something for them. So far each IDE only interrupted my flow and got on my nerves slowing me more down than helping. Especially Xcode and Visual Studio. Also Java is not a professional standard but a buggy joke of a language. Dev that can only auto complete are the first to be replaced by Ai ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@renerebe you have abit of an elitist mentality. To say Java isn't a professional language is ignorance or a lack of knowledge in a professional industry outside linux development. A developer has no chance of knowing each method in every library, auto completion increases productivity and helps a developer better understand what is available.
I'm just the message of comfortable truth.
This is what I call Deep Work.
I always say if I ever have the opportunity to do it from scratch I would surely become a software engineer this job is in my soul.
Such a "Low-Level" Developer............Love the way he humbled all "High-Level" ones.
Since I'm a Biomedical Engineer, I haven't even programmed with something that is not Python or Matlab. Haven't understood a single thing and I don't know what am I doing here. But this man gives me inner peace.
Whoever uses vi to code edit deserves to be in the final boss category. I'd probably need to code for a couple more decades to reach his level.
sometimes I write on notepad++ :))) more colorful :))
respect dude .. I'm a delevoper for 24 years, actualy matching old Delphi 5 Pascal Code together with C# to get they run the system with webservices in a company .. not to compare with youre work in the video .. but it's a good job to keep the system alive and to benefit from it from both sides .. Viele Grüße 🙂

rene can you answer me a question? when you reintroduce architectures like ps3 do you also have to change gcc? because afaik gcc dropped a few processors like the cell from ps3.
they only dropped the support for the SIMD SPE ISA, not the main PowerPC64 CPU. You had to use two different gcc for the PPC and SPE, and now you can still use use a slightly older GCC for the SIMD SPEs programming, ....
