Woo got my HOP shirt! Thanks @gwenckatz.bsky.social !

Coming Monday on a new episode of The CircuitPython Show: Meet River Wang, creator of the #CircuitPython Online IDE. River shares his motivations, its features, and more. Find the show wherever you get your podcasts.

This is amazing

Literally just lectured about this! In the late 1960s, air quality was so bad in several cities they had to turn on the street lights during the day so drivers could see. And yeah, the Cuyahoga River was so polluted it literally caught on fire.

In the latest episode of The CircuitPython Show, learn about circremote from @romkey.com - one of the many things it can do is clean and de-crapify your drive, removing the junk files macOS and even emacs leave.

just learned we won an award for our blog post about Tom Holland and stormwater management. remember, when you see an article about stormwater management, you repost it. i don’t make the rules.

RIP Arduino, but also Long Live #Arduino. My C++-based projects use an Arduino core not controlled by Arduino (arduino-esp32, arduino-pico), compiled w/ arduino-cli or Arduino 2 IDE. All 4 are GPL. The Arduino community will survive & thrive, even if this kills off Arduino the corporate entity

Check out the latest episode of The CircuitPython Show with guest John @romkey.com. John shares circremote, one of the neatest ways I've seen to work with a #CircuitPython device over serial or web workflow.

New blog post - The Zoom Podtrak P4Next - my first impressions and where I threaten @todbot.com with having to record in person some day: New blog post: The Zoom Podtrak P4Next - www.paulcutler.org/blog/2025/11...

Oh my

Happy Partially Muscled Skeleton Day to all who celebrate. Be sure to let all your screams out and then disappear.

I got @thebootloader.net stickers! Thanks @paulcutler.org! And they’re cat-approved (sorta, you know cats) #caturday #podcats #podcast

Not really a fan of how stuttery & slow iOS 26 is on my iPhone 13 Pro Max. But had to upgrade to use new Watch. Grrr. Very frustrating. #ios #ios26 #iphone

Loving today's news that the mysterious "fedora man" outside the Louvre heist was actually a 15-year-old museum visitor who dresses like a 1940s French detective all the time, just because. apnews.com/article/louv...

Let's hack the page to make "FOR" editable. Font looks like Adobe Coffee Service; Google Fonts Sriracha is close enough. 1. Right-click "FOR", select "Inspect" 2. Right-click the nearby `<span id="for-span"` element and "Edit as HTML" 3. Replace HTML (see reply) 4. Cmd+enter or Ctrl+enter to save

The wait is finally over, we're happy to announce that the KeebDeck Keyboard and our first product using it, the KeebDeck Basic, are now available for sale from our @lectronz.com store! ⌨️ lectronz.com/stores/solde...

Coming Monday on a new episode of The CircuitPython Show: Meet John Romkey, author of circremote, an innovative Python app to push and run code on a microcontroller running #CircuitPython. Find the show wherever you get your podcasts.

Just upgraded to MacOS 26.1 on a computer w/ an external 1920x1200 monitor and it looks TERRIBLE. The fonts in the official apps (Messages, etc) look grody with no way to change apparently. The whole interface is like an sophomore attempt w/ the over-rounded edges. So gross & amateurish #macos

Oh look, it's a biblically-accurate cable tester www.tindie.com/products/iro...

New episode! Tod and Paul welcome guest Liz Clark and chat about Raspberry Pi Connect, an open source e-Reader, code as PCB design, and more. Find the show wherever you get your podcasts or visit www.thebootloader.net/episodes/ep0...

The shutdown will hit Altadena hard, cutting off not only SNAP but also SBA loans and FEMA programs that disaster victims have spent months applying for. I will donate 10% of the funds from this Kickstarter to the ACTS food pantry in my neighborhood. www.kickstarter.com/projects/2019846827/hop-shirt

FINAL!! 24!! HOURS!!

SAO wall at Hackaday SuperCon is so fun. And now @crashspacela.bsky.social has an SAO! #supercon2025

Glowies are now available online! This is our new line of rechargeable jewelry made out of fun LED shapes. We can make any as a necklace, earrings, or lobster claws for clipping onto hoops (great for folks who put hoops thru their gauges). www.alpenglowindustries.com/collections/...

“Want to hold 5000 of something?” It’s always so cool to get a full reel of SMD parts. In this case, resistors

Here's a link to today's CircuitPython exam: docs.google.com/presentation... Students had to complete 8 builds in 2.5 hrs. Themes: "Magic-8 Ball Yoda", "Diwali Musical Chairs", An anti-cat distance-activated Turkey, & "Yip Yip Yip" martians from Sesame Street.

I have stickers! Want one? Request here (US addresses only, sorry): docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Happy 31st Birthday The First Web Banner! On October 27, 1994, The AT&T Telecommunications Company placed the first web banner in Internet history on the HotWired magazine website. The first web banner in the world was 476×56 px. #WebDesignHistory

Just donated to PSF. Thank you, Python folk, for standing up to the BS.

Learn to Connect a @raspberrypi Pico W / 2W to the Internet, get accurate time over NTP, and schedule tasks using CircuitPython. An updated lesson for my PhysicalComputing course. Enjoy! youtu.be/mopOuE6L67Y

Let There Be Light! Create magnificent LED animations with a low-cost set of concentric circular NeoPixel / WS2812 lights and an ElectroMage PixelBlaze board. No soldering or programming. A great starting point for newbie electronics makers & LED artists. youtube.com/shorts/FUNCS...

$4000! If we get to 5, it'll cover rent...

It’s #Caturday, time to vote!
