Introduction

This tutorial for setting up Ubuntu Server (RPi 3B) as Wifi access point

Overview:

The main steps can be listed as following:

Install required packages
Setup hostapd
Setup DNSmasq
Configure AP IP Address

How to make Windows 7 USB flash install media from Linux?

Install ms-sys - if it is not in your repositories, get it here. Or alternatively, make sure lilo is installed (but do not run the liloconfig step on your local box if e.g. Grub is installed there!)
Check what device your USB media is assigned - here we will assume it is /dev/sdb. Delete all partitions, create a new one taking up all the space, set type to NTFS (7), and remember to set it bootable:

# cfdisk /dev/sdb
or fdisk /dev/sdb (partition type 7, and bootable flag)

Setting up RetroArch on a Raspberry Pi

I just put the finishing touches on my Raspberry Pi 3 emulation machine running RetroArch. I was not a huge fan of RetroPie due to the reliance on Emulation Station - more moving parts meant that there were more things that could potentially break. I just wanted something that would run raw RetroArch, no frills.

This tutorial is mostly recreated from memory and was most recently tested with a Raspberry Pi 3 running Raspbian Stretch and RetroArch 1.7.7. If there is a mistake or a broken link, PLEASE message me and I will fix it.

Step 1: Install Raspbian

I used Raspbian Stretch Lite from this page. Write the image to your SD card using something like Win32 Disk Imager, or if you're using OSX/Linux follow a tutorial on how to write the image using dd.

C++ Pointer Tutorial

Because pointers can be ugh

"Regular" variables (not pointers)

To understand a pointer, let's review "regular" variables first. If you're familiar with a programming language without pointers like JavaScript, this is what you think when you hear "variable".

When declaring a variable by identifier (or name), the variable is synonymous with its value.

Configure Git to use a proxy

In Brief

You may need to configure a proxy server if you're having trouble cloning or fetching from a remote repository or getting an error like unable to access '...' Couldn't resolve host '...'.

Consider something like:

	cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)
	project(untitled3)

	set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)

	# This toolchain file is based on https://github.com/apmorton/teensy-template/blob/master/Makefile
	# and on the Teensy Makefile.

	include(CMakeForceCompiler)

	// A simple quickref for Eigen. Add anything that's missing.
	// Main author: Keir Mierle

	#include <Eigen/Dense>

	Matrix<double, 3, 3> A; // Fixed rows and cols. Same as Matrix3d.
	Matrix<double, 3, Dynamic> B; // Fixed rows, dynamic cols.
	Matrix<double, Dynamic, Dynamic> C; // Full dynamic. Same as MatrixXd.
	Matrix<double, 3, 3, RowMajor> E; // Row major; default is column-major.
	Matrix3f P, Q, R; // 3x3 float matrix.
