@haughty quiver Thanks for another fun show! 🥞

[lavish patrol]

@haughty quiver 👍

[inner spade]

Thanks!

[paper schooner]

[inner spade]

BlueFruit pancakes. Yum!

[lavish patrol]

Hmmm. Might go and get me some pancakes now. 😋

[signal latch]

THanks @haughty quiver

[haughty quiver]

LOL power of suggestion @lavish patrol

[lavish patrol]

Lol.

[haughty quiver]

I may have been thinking specifically of Trader Joe's Pancake Bread...

[inner spade]

The Original Pancake House is just 12.5 minutes from here. See y'all later!

[haughty quiver]

Haha, bye!

[fallen siren]

O crêpe I'm hungry now

Good demo, John, thanks for the show!

[inner spade]

Yum. Blueberry pancakes hit the spot.

[waxen thistle]

Speaking of pancake bread, I found a depression-era recipe for peanut butter bread -- which makes the -best- french toast after leaving it out overnight.

[slow spire]

@waxen thistle Can you share the recipe?!

[waxen thistle]

@slow spire

Depression-Era Peanut Butter Bread

Ingredients:
2 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cup milk
1/2 cup peanut butter [I used about 1/2 - 2/3 a normal jar, and loved it]

optional ideas: adding 1/2 cup of nutella, adding chocolate chips, using honey roasted/chunky/speciality peanut butter, using a different nut butter (almond butter, sunflower butter, etc).

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Mix together dry ingredients.
Mix in the milk, then the peanut butter.
Scrape into greased loaf pan and bake for about 1 hour.

Let cool 100% before slicing [typically a few hours].

For French Toast, leave cut slices out overnight exposed to air as this is a very moisture-rich, dense bread [French Toast excels with slightly stale bread).

[slow spire]

Wow. No eggs! I'll have to try modifying that for keto. Thanks, @waxen thistle

[waxen thistle]

@slow spire That's right, no eggs -- they suggest in the recipe to add eggs if one wants a fluffier texture, but it's not needed -- but it's a dense heavy bread.

[river peak]

@waxen thistle Are you going to come on Show and Tell next week to show off this Peanut Butter Bread?

[waxen thistle]

Hahaha, probably not 🙂 The most technical aspect to it was using a gas oven with electric ignition 😛

Though in all seriousness, I do enjoy cooking. Wouldn't be too hard to do a casual cooking show/segments, but that market is pretty saturated to be honest. I don't know what I could bring to the table that's new or different.

[river peak]

Show and Tell isn't JUST for technical stuff

[waxen thistle]

With just food, I could do a S&T every week for a few years if that's the case 🍽

[river peak]

Do a few and you might get invited to Adafruit one week just so they can taste it and aren't just stuck looking at it longingly.

[waxen thistle]

Imagine hauling a pot of chili on the subway.

[river peak]

Hah

Control your oven via the cloud as a cloud of thick smoke billows out of it!

Taking 'burning firmware' to a whole new level.

I'm sure my landlord wouldn't like me modifying his entry-level gas oven. He snickered when he saw my dual monitors and made a snide comment about "trying out for the Matrix, I see".

It was one of those situations where my better sensibilities won -- mind your matters when it comes to the hand that controls your housing.

I would like to know if it's OK to power (2) of the meter strips using that one battery pack. If not, any power and wiring suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to have two separate power strips incorporated into clothing and powered by some portable source. Looking forward to your reply!

[haughty quiver]

thanks much!

[cinder wind]

ooo more nornsmusic?

[haughty quiver]

Yes!

a script called LESS_CONCEPTS @cinder wind

thanks @dense marlin i built a DIY version of monome norns called Fates.

It's essentially a tiny Super Collider appliance, and now also runs Pd and Organelle patches with Orac 2.

[dense marlin]

eer, what?

[haughty quiver]

haha, yes.

this is norns https://monome.org/docs/norns/

it's very unclear from that what it actually is.

what it actually is is a Raspberry Pi compute module 3 with a custom DAC, 1/4" outputs and inputs L/R, headphone out, a screen, three knobs, three buttons.

[dense marlin]

I'm watching already this video: https://vimeo.com/266741634

[haughty quiver]

It runs the audio software Super Collider. And you can script it with Lua.

[dense marlin]

Ah, I slowly understand

[haughty quiver]

It's basically a way to remove the laptop from a Grids/Arc sort of setup, initially, and then a whole lot more thanks to community scripts.

And its software (maybe hardware?) open source. So the Fates is a DIY version that uses a new custom PCB for the DAC, I/O, screen, knobs, buttons part of it, and an RPi 3 B+ or 4 as the brains.

[dense marlin]

$ 800 ???

[haughty quiver]

It's quite high end, and very well designed, but I wasn't going to get one at that price. So I'm thrilled w the DIY version which is more like $150 in parts.

[dense marlin]

Great, I will have a look on this. Thanks

@lethal lagoon I'll have to check out your scaling techniques -- I haven't yet found a great way to duplicate the ST: Disco pattern (seen here).

http://trekcore.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/deltas-yeoh.jpg

[fallow fractal]

You're 23:50 UTC

[lethal lagoon]

@slow spire yes i love reading about the processes behind her work, it inspires me to push the tools i have farther to see what they can do

@waxen thistle ooh i love the discovery uniforms, i think a cricut vinyl cutter might work well for that pattern

[slow spire]

@waxen thistle That looks like an excellent candidate for that technique. I'd spray it with a really polished gold spray paint.

The Cricut wouldn't reproduce the 3D nano-emblems, but it would be likely good enough.

[waxen thistle]

@lethal lagoon Fancy you mentioned that -- I just picked up a Circuit Explore Air 2 that was on clearance last week 🙂 Haven't played with it much yet 🙂

[slow spire]

Or even stenciling a flat, gold paint pattern, as a fallback.

[lethal lagoon]

@waxen thistle ooh so excited for you! definitely check out Beverly Downen's cricut videos on YouTube, she has some amazing techniques she uses for cosplay

[wanton dome]

@waxen thistle might they still be on clearance?

[lethal lagoon]

you could use it to cut iron on gold foil or use it to cut a super precise stencil, as @slow spire suggested

[slow spire]

Is this her channel, @lethal lagoon ?
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBEYaWkfynDP-dTfmf8X5gw

[waxen thistle]

@wanton dome Hmm, good luck. They were very limited supply, specific colors only at Wal-Mart. Original price $229, down to $139. I found mine organically, but post-purchase research on deal-tracking websites told me that the clearances have been reversed due to it being a price-controlled product.

[lethal lagoon]

YES! that is her, she is totally amazing and her Wasp cosplay uses the cricut a lot

[slow spire]

I'm kind of impressed with the Masked Singer costumes these days.
https://www.fox.com/the-masked-singer/

@slow spire same! must be fun to work on those

[waxen thistle]

[wanton dome]

heya @upbeat coral! Welcome!

[slow spire]

Hi, @upbeat coral

[waxen thistle]

@slow spire Aerial photography -- drone work?

[slow spire]

Yep.

DJI Mavic Air and DJI Spark. Will be posting some stuff soon shot with Insta360 camera as well.

[waxen thistle]

Very cool -- just nabbed a DJI Spark. Haven't gotten it up and running yet (need to do the licensing first).

[dim knot]

https://www.adafruit.com/free

[slow spire]

Are you in Canada, @waxen thistle ?

[waxen thistle]

Walmart is clearing out the DJI Mavic Pro and Sparks -- and I couldn't say no to what little they had left in stock.

Nope, in the USA @slow spire -- NJ near NYC.

[slow spire]

You just need to register with FAA online; just takes minutes.

And the brand new DJI Mavic Mini introduced today is < 250g, so doesn't need registration, AFAIK.

[solid wyvern]

adafruit is live at https://www.twitch.tv/adafruit

[tiny plank]

You all aren't shipping on Election Day, correct?

[open girder]

we are shipping

[tiny plank]

Good to know! Thanks!

[slow spire]

Also, you can fly indoors without licensing. You will need to register with DJI, though, and probably update firmware, so I'd advise setting aside a few hours to do that before any planned vacation droning.

Even battery firmware on each battery needs to be updated occasionally.

Anyway, ping me any time with any q's on the Spark, @waxen thistle .

[wanton dome]

@waxen thistle mind if I DM you?

[waxen thistle]

@slow spire Thanks dude, I might do that as I get things up and running. 🙂

One of the very first Open Source hardware ideas was a simple RS-232 'plug' for a Garmin GPS.

[slow spire]

@tacit linden That would be a good idea. You can make it easier for your parent or guardian by gathering all the steps ahead of time. Looking forward to seeing your project(s)! You don't even need to have finished them; they can be work in progress!

[tacit linden]

steps?

[slow spire]

Just whatever's needed to sign up.

[tacit linden]

ahh ok

noted!

[clear matrix]

@tacit linden You would need a parent or guardian to send the email with your address to send the As Seen on Show and Tell sticker too. It's best to ask permission before joining the show, but you can join the show without a parent or guardian. 🙂

[tacit linden]

got it, yep

[slow spire]

@tacit linden Are you working on or thinking up a project?

What are you hoping to make?

[tacit linden]

currently thinking up, very soon to be working on c:

thinking about making a tiny game console with an 8x8 LED matrix !!

[slow spire]

Oooh nice.

There are lots of ideas to get you started on https://learn.adafruit.com

[waxen thistle]

@slow spire Quick question on drones -- for someone who's graduating from the $20 toy drone category, which is a smarter tool/toy -- the Spark or the Mavic Pro?

[dim knot]

https://certification.oshwa.org/

[slow spire]

The Spark was my first, and I still love it. It does 1080p, gimbal-stabilized video, and 12 megapixel stills.

It's less expensive to crash.

I'd definitely get DJI Care Refresh with the Spark or the Mavic.

[earnest cipher]

@waxen thistle as another drone nerd, I have to say that it depends on what you plan to do. If you need portability and ease of use, the spark is the way to go. If you want more flight options and are looking to do sone serious filming (freaking amazing cameras on some drones), I would go with the mavic 2.

[slow spire]

With that, DJI will replace your damaged drone, as long as you can bag up the parts and send them back with a ~$60 deductible.

[earnest cipher]

The mavic series has the new 360 degree obstacle avoidance on the mavic 2/enterprise

[fallow fractal]

first open hardware project I'm aware of:
https://web.archive.org/web/20000311050608/http://pfranc.com/projects/g45contr/g45_idx.htm

[slow spire]

Mavic 2 Pro has ~360° obstacle avoidance.

It does have some blind spots.

Skydio 2 has more complete, faster, foolproof obstacle avoidance.

[earnest cipher]

it gets the job done. you should be flying in VLOS anyway

[slow spire]

That's true, Techniack, visual line of sight is best practice.

[earnest cipher]

But skydio has little user control correct? is it not all an AI?

[slow spire]

Nonetheless, the 6 obstacle avoidance cameras on my Mavic Air have saved my $800 drone a few times.

[fallow fractal]

[inner spade]

@open girder Q: For makers who are private individuals not associated with a business entity and who aren't interested in selling but just want to share openly, are there any legal protection steps that should be observed? Asking for a friend.

[earnest cipher]

(full disclosure, I'm a DJI fanboy)

[slow spire]

@earnest cipher New Skydio 2 will do fully automated like the original Skydio R1, but also enables manual control with an RC control, like the DJIs.

[clear matrix]

@inner spade A "friend". 😄

[inner spade]

😏

[waxen thistle]

@earnest cipher and @slow spire thanks 🙂 That matches what I was thinking -- seems like I made a good call with the spark (plus it was the only option available at the time on sale).

@clear matrix hahaha.

[slow spire]

What kind of deal did you get? Was it the Fly More Combo?

[waxen thistle]

@slow spire It was a walmart clearance sale -- their trademarked "nothing on the shelf, but brickseek said they had 'limited stock'. So I asked and they dug through the cages and found one for $100" sale.

[slow spire]

$100 for the Spark?!

[waxen thistle]

$100 for the Spark, and there was potential for the Mavic Pro for $250.

[slow spire]

Whoooooa.

[waxen thistle]

they couldn't find one, but I was hoping to get one if I could.

[fallow fractal]

I think CERN may've been involved in designing HTTP (The World Wide Web).

[dim knot]

CERN: https://www.ohwr.org/cernohl

[slow spire]

The Spark is still my favorite drone under $300. It's an absolute joy to use.

[waxen thistle]

I remember when it came out, and it was near universal approval. So when I saw it on sale, I knew it was a steal. It was the Spark + Controller combo kit.

[fallow fractal]

English scientist Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web in 1989. He wrote the first web browser in 1990 while employed at CERN near Geneva, Switzerland.

@slow spire Knowing it's the spark + controller combo, what are the first 3 accessories/parts/addons I should consider getting for it?

[slow spire]

How many batteries do you have?

[waxen thistle]

Just one included.

[dim knot]

https://about.gitlab.com/

[wanton dome]

@open girder

Please no legal advice, but is license dilution a thing? If one line out of a thousand is GPL, do I still have to release my code? If I later remove that one line how does that work?

If something is 25% GPL code and 75% MIT, who wins?

It's like the git repo of Theseus

[inner spade]

@open girder Excellent answer. Thanks!

[slow spire]

I'd get at least one more. I got 3 total, and that seems to be a good number to take me through a day:
https://www.amazon.com/DJI-CP-PT-000789-Spark-Intelligent-Battery/dp/B072C6DWYX/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=dji+spark+battery&qid=1572482421&sr=8-3

This is my favorite case for the Spark:
https://www.amazon.com/PolarPro-Mini-Case-DJI-Spark/dp/B072T619NV/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=polarpro+spark+case&qid=1572482629&s=electronics&sr=1-3

It's tiny, and I just toss it in my backpack.

[waxen thistle]

What makes it better than the one included?

[slow spire]

It's smaller, and more like a second skin.

Did you get the coated foam case, or a fabric one?

6.7" square; 2.2" thick

[waxen thistle]

Let me check 🙂

@slow spire Foam -- immediately I dislike it 😛

[slow spire]

That one is OK; it's basically reinforced packing material.

It's also much chunkier than the Polarpro I suggest.

@waxen thistle https://vimeo.com/223678649

[waxen thistle]

@slow spire thank you -- I'll watch that after the broadcast [along with some of the channel Sophy suggested....and the backlog of TV shows I missed this week so far. hahah]

Debating that case or the XL case that holds the controller + extra batteries

[slow spire]

I flew the Spark without a controller for 6 months, so, maybe one that holds the controller would be a good bet for you, if you intend to use the controller a lot.

If you bring the controller along, I'd definitely get some protection, both for the controller, and for the things that might get damaged by the controller's sharp control sticks.

[waxen thistle]

I've never used the app -- so I'll need to try both and see what fits me better.

[slow spire]

The app is overwhelming at first. First “hello world” I'd suggest is: Turn on everything, and wait for good GPS (green bar). Hit record. Launch drone, and just using left stick, raise drone 50 feet, spin around slowly. Land drone. Stop recording.

[waxen thistle]

That sounds exactly what I need. A "hello world" to drones. Perfect.

[lapis hinge]

What's the best programming language(s) for adafruit products? I know this is asked a lot

(sorry in advance)

[waxen thistle]

@lapis hinge CircuitPython is my go to -- that and MakeCode.

https://learn.adafruit.com/welcome-to-circuitpython

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/makecode

You can always use Arduino, but it's not as beginner friendly.

https://www.arduino.cc/

[lapis hinge]

I might need the LED ring

[wanton dome]

@lapis hinge I'll second CircuitPython as a starting point. It's really good at getting an idea going in short order

[lapis hinge]

yeah

I'm guessing CodeAcademy teaches this?

[wanton dome]

Yup!
https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-circuitpython

[lapis hinge]

nice!

[waxen thistle]

@lapis hinge That guide I linked for CircuitPython is an awesome starting point too 🙂

[wanton dome]

That said, you don't have to use code academy but it's a good resource if it fits your learning style

[lapis hinge]

sorry if I'm being a bother, I really am jumping into programming and this seems like an interactive way I could learn

[wanton dome]

What @waxen thistle said. There are a lot of good resources on learn.adafruit.com

[waxen thistle]

@lapis hinge For specific questions, look at the channels under the ^ HELP WITH header -- such as #help-with-circuitpython

[wanton dome]

You can always ask in a channel like #help-with-circuitpython if you need advice on what to get

[lapis hinge]

got it

[misty grotto]

@open girder I am guessing you have read what I have posted so far so you can help with the intro and I can focus on the demo

for the tug I have a total of 98 Neo-pixels

[this was many years ago, era of Pentium II with budget PSUs. never cheap out on power, folks. never again.]

[lavish patrol]

@waxen thistle Also, invest in a couple of fire extinguishers. 😉

[waxen thistle]

Absolutely no joke, always keep on in the kitchen and one within arms reach of anything that generates heat. Laundry room, workbench, 3D printer, hot glue gun, bottle of 1,000,000 scoville hot sauce, etc.

[misty grotto]

ok ty

[novel yoke]

Sla is resin printing

[sage aspen]

@misty grotto SLA is stereolithograph apparatus and is Resein Printing

[novel yoke]

Sla can be with a laser or uv and lcd

[misty grotto]

how is that different from PLA?

[sage aspen]

Resin printing is usually MSLA or Masked SLA

[misty grotto]

ok similar to sintering?

[novel yoke]

Not exactly

[sage aspen]

PLA is a material rather than a technique

[viral sail]

Great work everyone.

[waxen thistle]

The smallest thing can make the biggest difference. All because an MIT student wanted to make some electronics kits. And here we all are.

[lavish patrol]

Another cool S&T.

[misty grotto]

wow you cram alot into one show!

[upbeat coral]

See ya in a few

[novel yoke]

With the consumers level printers the print bed raises up while the print goes bottom up while being printed

It uses uv light to cure sections of resin to form the part

Very different from meting plastic to print right side up then let that plastic solidify

[past yarrow]

Thanks everyone.

Twitch has a 2.11 second delay to broadcaster (it fluctuates) -- it's by far my favorite service.

I'll judge instead of entering on the AT category 🙂

Twitch does have minor hiccups now and then but it's way less annoying than YouTube's spinner, and crap resolution after it freezes and so on.

@pearl shoal I would guess they test a sample from a batch. Perfect QC would be to test all but not always realistic.

I got a bad screen on a MonsterMask. Close exam shows it to be a blue film at the ribbon cable. All my others are black

[waxen thistle]

We're all human. I'm sure something might slip through QC, or it just bites the dust during shipping. For such issues, send a friendly email detailing your issue to [e-mail]

a mere $30 lets you get rather accurate positioning....from spaaace. I remember chunky handheld units the size of a small brick with something like a 10m accuracy.

[dawn orbit]

Any thought on an CPX version with Stemma connectors?

[plucky glen]

A few months ago I wanted to write an app in CircuitPython that could write to the capacitive TFT and do plotting, and react to touches on the screen. Is the capacitive touchscreen and graphics output no supported? Does Python have full GFX-compatible libraries?

[pearl shoal]

Q: I know Stemma is meant to be I2C or digital/analog in... but can you do UART over it on the M4?

Q: could the gesture sensor do blink detection?

[tired shale]

@pearl shoal if you mean the port on the m4, it's connected to a sercom so should be able to do spi i2c or uart

[boreal holly]

Q: @open girder How many years have you been doing this? I've been watching (less regularly lately, sorry) since about 2010. When you figure out time travel, what would you go back and tell yourself, ie, pitfalls, milestones, where you're at today?

[maiden tangle]

How do I connect a battery from a phone to a feather and be able to charge it but I don’t have the female port for it.

[tired shale]

maybe not spi because more pins

[inner spade]

@pearl shoal I routinely use STEMMA for UART, particularly for converting classic MIDI for the NeoTrellis M4. -- but it doesn't chain well.

[tawdry orchid]

Will CircuitPython run Machine Learning models like ResNet34 Yolo v3?

[pearl shoal]

Blinking is one of the last things that can be tracked when people have ALS or SMA

[paper schooner]

Can the new GPS STEMA use an external antenna?

[pearl shoal]

So detecting it and using it as a switch point is important

[waxen thistle]

I saw the future: It is going to work out. Do the right thing, be kind.
