It finally dawned on me that I should write up summaries of the [computer science] papers I read and put them somewhere so the thoughts aren't lost forever. Here's the first one. Prepare to raise your fist in the air as Peter Naur tells it like it is...

This was a really great "chapter" for me. I'd done some I2C with Micropython before, so I decided to tackle something more challenging with an OLED display. I ended up writing some tools in Zig to stream cat pictures to my device! Check it out...

It's alive! I did the math and made a thing move in the real world. Also dusted off the oscilloscope for this one...

I'm back on track! This second "chapter" of The Year of the Microcontroller is finally complete...

RSS Club* Exclusive FOURTH "nosurf" post. Distractions can't compete with these two techniques. The only problem is that they're both pretty indulgent...

I think it's usually a mistake to try to write a "correct" program from a blank slate...

Simply asking for help was the best thing I've done in a while. Scroll to the bottom for my t-shirt design. I can't wait for mine to come in the mail...

But you know what? I'm proud of this little thing and I'm really glad I made it. The link here is basically a whole mini-site with...

A saga nearly a year in the making: Then a new Linux kernel and a new video card make the whole thing trivial...

Installing the Hare programming language on Slackware just got easier thanks to yours truly. But this is really a love note to the tireless volunteers at slackbuilds.org...

Just some scripts here. Nothing too exciting, but might give you some ideas for automating the tasks in your life. The *coolest part* is definitely using a fuzzy matcher (zf in this case; FZF is also very popular). There are *so* many uses for fuzzy search menus to take the pain out of common CLI tasks...
