  • This Kickstarter project selling a dev board and started by a commercial company rubs Chris the wrong way.
  • Congrats to the Raspberry Pi team for selling over 1 million units! Check out our interview with Eben Upton, the creator of the RPi, for more info.
  • Patent trolls have been roaming the lands. One claiming they invented podcasts, many years past the date of their inception; another continually growing and shedding corporate shells (Intellectual Ventures) in order to avoid action against the larger company.
  • Learning takes a long time. Listener Jope suggests this article about learning programming.
  • Learning about chip layouts also takes a long time. This blogger reverse engineered an ST 24C02 sector 17 clock.
  • If you're into learning about RF, check out this database of circuit designs and start building!
  • Chris is geeking out about his new mill. He'll continue to make videos like this first one

  • We need a new slogan! Email your ideas to [email protected]
  • Next week we'll have the CEO and the VP of Engineering from Touchstone Semiconductor. Keep an eye out for the post asking for your questions!
