Let's talk a bit about MOTIVATION on #FOSS. How much do you need? How can it be maintained?How long can it last? Here it my experience working with #raylib for +7 years... SPOILER: It's not possible to be motivated all the time! 1/n
Original motivation: #raylib started as a weekend project, for my students to learn programming and be able to easily put things on the screen... also view/understand what was happening at a lower level (#opensource)! The idea itself seemed cool enough to motivate me a lot! 2/n
Results motivation: Students loved raylib and they started learning and creating things in just a few weeks... that was a great motivation to keep working, improving the library and adding new features! I received lot of positive feedback and engagement! Very motivating! 3/n

@esxi_arm Yup! Getting firmware working and polished is a massive massive undertaking. One that I and a very special set of folks from around the world have been driving over the course of a few years now. All as a side act.
@esxi_arm It all started in 2016, when Microsoft put out Windows 10 IoT for Pi 2/3 and released the sources to their TianoCore modifications github.com/ms-iot/RPi-UEFI
@esxi_arm In 2017, Ard Biesheuvel separately developed an early port of 64-bit UEFI support. And this one had PSCI (via TF-A, then called ATF).
