I sometimes use abbreviations like wd/ht. Should be understood with surrounding context.

Ahh this OS is small enough that a university professor used it as the basis for his class assignments: write a device driver for it, or a pipe implementation, if I recall correctly. I thought it was pretty genius at the time, and it was certainly quite a challenge for the students too.

I use the FDMQ8205. It's an old part, a little pricey, but keeps the board footprint low. It also has a sufficiently high UVLO, so it acts like regular diodes during the classification phase and you don't need to factor those in to the Rcls values.

Aahh this brings back memories. I first started out using Linux on my desktop and I found this fancy system monitor that made my desktop look cool. There's a section which displays filesystem usage with a button that allows mounting/unmounting with a click. I used it to mount floppy disks but it wasn't working for me, so I read the source to figure out what was wrong, then emailed Bill to contribute a patch to fix it.

It was one of my first open source contributions, and it was then that I understood the value of open source - being able to read the code, debug and then fix it yourself (and for others).

Probably. Or something like the TPL5110 might actually suffice, purpose-built timer for power gating at 35nA, but only goes up to 2hr at max.

Cool, looks like text highlighting is a new addition in 2.10. There aren't any examples in the demo site of this, but can it capture the highlighted text snippets and show them in the link details page? That would help me recall quickly why I saved the link, without opening the original link and re-reading the page. I haven't really seen this in other tools (or maybe I just haven't looked hard enough), except Memex.

I have the same thoughts about the approach, and I'm actually working (on the back burner) a similar thing. It's a harman kardon "smart" speaker with a similar design where the brains are on a separate daughterboard and that's now fried.

I've already figured out the control signals and have designed a new daugterboard with an ESP32 to drive the I2S output. I just need to figure out how to downmix the audio to mono and to DSP the L/R channels into tweeter/bass outputs, or to find some code already out there that does this. Any help/pointers here would be appreciated!

When I initially watched the demo video, I was wondering how the devices might locate each other. I thought it was using ultra wide band (UWB) like iPhones but now I see it’s just GPS. I’m not sure how many of these events are indoors vs outdoors, but it definitely won’t work indoors. Wonder how they might try to make it work indoors if there’s no additional hardware onboard.
