The Amp Hour – Now with 100% more guests! Welcome, Jeri Ellsworth!

  • C vs. assembly language. Jeri still uses asm, Dave has in the past but favors C, C stands for Chris, that's good enough for him.
  • Management of projects could improve projects, but not much can help code reviews.
  • Jeremy is done (for now) with his Arduino videos. More types of uC's to come!
  • Jeri's encounter with misogynistic bus gadget maker continues. Peter Bartok really dug quite a hole.
  • Continuing of misogyny in the electronics world, Edmund Optics' new catalog has made a stir, just like the one 4 years ago.
  • Chris hates that the first thing tech magazines started doing was talking about supply shortages (as people were being pronounced dead and missing).
  • Dave thinks being female will help you stand out in the job marketplace. Jeri suggests to stand out in any other way possible. She also mentions how much more difficult it is once in a workplace.
  • Bad way to stand out: being a white collar criminal. Tyco execs sent to jail and have huge fines for embezzling over $600 million. May explain the name change to TE Connectivity.
  • New Kickstarter project has first proto boards in: An open source USB protocol analyzer. Sextupled the funding request (!) and looks to be a great project.
    • Fund your favorite project, likely found under the "Technology" section of KickStarter.
    • The Australian version of KickStarter is called Pozible.
    • Looks like another Open Hardware Summit is on the horizon, set up by the wonderful folks at BugLabs.
    • Go Gear Go!
      • Dino suggests a printed sticker breakout board called Protoflex. Pretty cool! (and expensive)
      • Alan Yates (@vk2zay) suggests a set of SMD component boxes for storing teeny tiny parts.
      • There's a whole conference for printable electronics!
      • Jeri is considering printing her own chips, much like the folks the referenced her on video.
