Using p5.js to map the vertices of the truncated icosahedron build. I'm always too lazy to make 3D mapping part of a project's design phase and I always regret it later on!

looking back, AOL had it right. 30 hours of internet per month was the right amount.

this is the uA702, the first commercial analog chip (an op-amp). it was designed by the legendary Bob Widlar and went on the market in 1964 for $300 each. that's $2500 adjusting for inflation!

Electrochemical hour meter. (Saw it on Reddit). Current electrolyzes the mercury, which creates a moving dot... over time. www.reddit.com/r/AskElectro...

I transcribed the circuit an AI model gave me. Looks legit, doesn't it? Stop asking AI electronics questions.

For the #makergiftexchange last week with friends, I made a POV clock. Using one RGB LED and a seven segment display, it draws up to 21 characters and a full circle of 180 virtual pixels on a spinning circular PCB. Loosely inspired by Bob Blick's "Propeller Clock." 🧵1/3

This isn’t everything I have that runs CircuitPython. It’s just what I currently have in arm’s reach. Because, reasons.

Circuit Python makes 4.81 megabytes seem like an infinite space on a microcontroller. Like the first time I used a 1.44 MB disk after years of 400 kb .

I finally have this 32x32 LED matrix doing something that is almost useful. It took a FeatherS3 and some CircuitPython magic. I’ve had these panels for years but could never make things work out.

Deep etch into ferrite with a fiber laser works well. Time to make replacement recording heads for disk drives and video recorders!

"its more of a comment than a question" Don't be this person. Use the Q&A to ask interesting things or give the speaker a chance to clarify/show of. If you want a turn you should have submitted a talk. #Conferences #Academia
