The Nucleo board lives. Had to dig out an old mini-USB cable for it. They haven't updated the design in years. Two USB generations behind!

@mike @meshtastic not yet, I tested them in my house and small garden 😅

I'm having fun with @meshtastic!

I wish i had a waterproof ereader. If i did i wouod put on my scuba tanks, go sit at the bottom of a pool and read a books for a few hours.

Envelope control PCB for the synth just arrived.

Apparently the main lens won't give you 50MP by default. It's 12MP. You have to switch to 50MP mode and lose a lot of functions.

Hopefully, I'll get more students to tutor about computer science. It feels good to interact with actual humans face-to-face. It also gives me a good reason to take care of myself and stay sober.

@AmpBenzScientist 100%. It's the standard video player on macOS. It's also the built in video and screen capture tool. Windows still has a standard media player, doesn't it? Fun fact: Most web browsers will play H.264 video in a QuickTime .mov container if you rename it to .mp4.

Bow ya figure that makes no sense. Accumulating resources in a vault untouched is the least effecient form, you literally have negative effiency as inflation devalues assets. A person would achieve effiency by investing thrir mo ey wisely and ensuring other people are using those resources to effectively increase the total resources in the market.

You are getting stuck in the fallacy that someone havibg authority (ownership) over those resources means that other people cant use it for their own gains as well which is entierly contrary to the reality. Those resources will be in others hands and used by them in some agreement to use them for mutual gain (investment in others).

Synth engine demo. Also, venture capital stock offering.

As a woman entering the software industry, I wish I could tell you it's female friendly.

It is not. More so than before, but...

I would suggest to any young woman entering it to keep calm and carry on. Do not listen to them. Just continue to carry on your work. Maintain composure.

To any woman or girl who wants to have a career in computers: Logic gates do not care if your genitals point in our out. Some of the people you encounter along the way might, but as for the discipline itself, it is open to anyone with a brain.

Most of my talents are of the sort where they're only reliable for my own enjoyment. The moment they get milked, I start hating them. The only situation in which I could make a lot of money on my talents is if I'm the boss of the company and I determine the vision.
