the hardware equivalent of turning something off and on again is desoldering then soldering again

greetings journeymen this past week was mostly abt fiddling with rf i designed a telemetry board for my FC and played around with ELRS for another drone project next thing to do is to dig more into protocol structure

prettier in person

i find it quite funny and very ironic that ai "agents" have 0 agency they need to be told what to do and given instructions on how to do it

fully assembled, time for testing :)

imagine if Steve Jobs never did a keynote if he dropped the iPhone by just putting it for sale in stores no introduction, no showcase, no imagination feels like that's how open AI treats model releases...

hell yea!

i'm writing a library to interface with the rfm95 (basically a sx127x). i can't figure out how to read data over spi. it keeps timing out pls somebody help

imagine posting abt a bug and going to bed, then waking up to 10+ possible solutions from ppl smarter then u problem solved, ty twitter :)

a couple updates this week - assembled the rf board i ordered last week - started writing firmware for lora modulation next week we should start actually doing transmission!

I gotta start reading again. I'm at risk of becoming illiterate

petition to rename embedded systems engineers to "bit fiddlers" that's all that firmware seems to be doing all in favour?

seems like the age of anons is back on twitter. i'm here for it tbh

I think cixin Liu might be my favorite author atm

it's starting to look like a system :)

firmware is 10x harder than hardware. I never would've thought...

let me rephrase this: *designing protocols is harder than designing circuit boards

we have achieved wireless communication internally :)
