Anyone have details about this NTE Announcement (LinkedIn)? Who bought them in 2022? Looks like all stock is cleared out of the channels and their site is down. Seems like an abrupt end. :(
(Sorry for the weird looking URL, blame LinkedIn.)

Since #ParamountPlus makes it impossible to get a screenshot, I went ahead and mocked this up in honor of Gabriel Bell. #startrek #ds9 #bellriots
Here's looking forward to a day when the United States finally faces its ongoing humanitarian crises.
Thur 8/29 Stream: Attempting to program this (hopefully) clever clock delay circuit. It'll be used in my state mode logic analyzer project. Twitch or:

As Raspberry Pi 5 broke pigpio, I implemented bit-banged UART RX in Python using gpiod:

My application runs at very pedestrian speeds (4800bps), but I'm still shocked this works reliably, even when the Pi is under load. Haven't tried faster speeds yet. #RaspberryPi
Brand new Arduino-Pico version just dropped, with support for the RP2350!

Thur 8/22 Stream: Let's do some RP2350 design. I want to upgrade my state-mode logic analyzer. Come say hi.

a (human) friend texted me this link with the question “is this real?” and maybe I’ve been in the mountains for too long but it can’t possibly be real, right? Like as a critique or a satire it’s both incisive and clever, but as an earnest attempt at a product it’s just… deeply unhinged?
“When will I receive my friend?”
“Pre-orders will start shipping Q1 2025.”

I don't normally write or promote Kickstarter projects. However, since this is Particle and they have a proven track record of using crowdfunding successfully, I am comfortable sharing this one.
**Also**, I want one. It's like a mid-range smartphone on a Pi board for $149.
