That looks more like a full system software solution. I mean like, when you press the 1 button on your microwave and then the display reads 00:01. Or when you press the popcorn button and the microwave starts running for a predetmined amount of time. What is the language that is used to interpret the button presses and send signals to the various components? I always figured that is what "microwave oven programming" entails.

I don't know, but I've always assumed it was C code. C code just runs everywhere and anywhere.

yeah, depends on the architecture. If it's a microcontroller, which I think is highly likely, then probably C or maybe assembly. I don't see anything more powerful being economical in a microwave TBH.

A community for the fans and critics of the show 30 Rock.

Discussion of the show, pictures from the show and anything else 30 Rock related.

Rules:

  1. All DubVee instance rules apply. See the sidebar at https://dubvee.org. Those are pretty comprehensive, so we don't really need to add much to those.
  2. No politics outside of what's referenced on the show. Let's leave that drama elsewhere since there's plenty of it.
  3. All posts must be 30 Rock related or adjacent. You dummies are awesome, so I don't think I've ever had to mod any posts for this, but codifying it for good measure.
  4. Less a rule and more of a guideline, but please try to provide alt text if your instance + client combination support it. If not, then please try to make an effort to provide a description of any image posts in the post body.
  5. Don't make fun of people for misusing dated cultural references. Are we all cowabunga on this?
  6. No talking about Krang. It would be a waste of time to talk about Krang on ~~television~~ the internet.
