This may be the best chance we get for years to ban federal use of face surveillance and withhold some federal tax dollars from paying for this invasive and dangerous technology. eff.org/deeplinks/2020/06/now-

I can recommend 'Mastering Bitcoin' for developers out there, first chapters also great for anyone who wants deeper understanding. Here's a copy on the Tor network...

Casually mentioning "I showed my friend Woz how to produce NTSC color with digital signals when he was designing the Apple II and he ran with it" is an astounding nerd flex.

About ~70-90% of what I do in a day is a sidetrack of what I intended to do.

@crackurbones I think you need to get out of academia before you can develop critical thinking skills, too much respect for peers and student competition within.

@koshchey Long day, but beautiful end. Thanks for sharing.

Finally nailed the baseline drift handling in code for the CCS811 chip, datasheet is wrong or incomplete. CO2 experiments next.

[S1] CO2: 409ppm, TVOC: 1ppb, baseLine: 0x16BF (0x16BF), lErr: 0b0
[S2] Pressure: 100914.39Pa, Temp: 32.46C
[S3] External temp: 31.37C
Uptime: 46536s

@loke I know that feeling. (Assuming there is no existing code/library out there.) My suggestion is to split the overwhelming boring task into smaller parts, do it in small doses, alternate doing other fun stuff, when doing the boring stuff put on some good music to take you through it. If that fails you can always ditch the whole idea for now, it's your project.
