Today I found Quake ported to Arduino Nano Matter and Sparkfun Thing Plus Matter Boards via this article from Hackaday: Quake In 276 KB Of RAM.
The code is on GitHub and there’s a YouTube video with a high-level explanation.

Thanks to my mate @edk from IRC I learned of the compose key. I configured my KDE Plasma desktop to use Right Alt as my compose key in System Settings -> Input Devices -> Keyboard -> Advanced. Then I updated the firmware and deployed a .XCompose file that I generated, and now I have a symbol keyboard on my Debian Linux workstation!
This is great: Is That A Coaster? No, It’s An LED Matrix!
I want to learn more about sigrok and OpenTechLab seems like a good place to start…
Today I found Kevin Hubbard here:
He seems to know a fair bit about PCB design and FPGAs, which are things I am becoming interested in too.
In Build – gusmanb’s 24 Channel 100MHz Logic Analyser from Happy Little Diodes I learned about this Logic Analyzer project. I would like to try building one of these for myself one day too.

In this video I add improved debouncing logic to the inaugural Silicon Chip and Jaycar Mini Project: JMP001.
Shout out and thank you to Tim Blythman for developing this project.
You can see Tim’s original code and my updates which improve the debouncing implementation.
In the video I mention that we use the pgmspace.h header from Arduino.

This week I discovered Jan Axelson. She’s a tech writer and her website is here: http://janaxelson.com/.
I have ordered four of her books:
I’m reading Pro Git and I learned that GitHub maintains a list of .gitignore templates. Those might come in handy.
