oh right, sorry! I just started using MakeCode 🙂

Excellent. The giant 7-seg project was one of my favs. Nice to see it adapted to MakeCode!

As a sidenote, I created an issue on github, to ask if it is possible to add translations to the Adafruit's makecode. (Other such as the BBC have it applied and look nice in spanish)

Thanks @gusty wedge !

oh yeah what's the preferred mechanism to ask for feature requests to MakeCode? I would love to see it have dictionaries in addition to normal arrays

@haughty quiver Can you make it so it color cycles on the lit segments?

For arduino and gifs, you may want to take a look at the Adafruit Ardcada GifDecoder library.

pyOCD allows you to do a lot of python stuff. I'm not sure if it's a droping replacement for openOCD. I've used it before to do unit testing on embedded code in the past.

timid plover
#

since you want to catch the high offenders ( e.g. the 700 ) is there a way to classify the allocations and dump out enough information that a pareto chart can be created - would profiling help ?

gusty wedge
#

On the C code you had the < pointing to one side, and on the commentary, > pointing to the other way.

#

Noup, very cool.

#

What are other places that it is assumed that optimization would be a nice thing?

timid plover
#

what other profiling tools are available - either in the C or python sides ? ( eg developer level - or user level profiling )

#

I agree - that the memory optimization is higher priority - many side effects from improved memory usage!

The iGEM community, which is huge will probably love this sensor. It seems to be good enough for detecting color changes in bio-hacking applications.

waxen thistle
#

Woah. For someone who enjoys a nice flashlight, CRI info is so hard to dig up.

#

For some LED emitters, you're lucky if you get broad descriptors like "cool" or "warm". It's nice that digikey went though the effort

Would those large pads on the LEDs are for heatsink/ as well?

(2nd is my model in progress, showing just the shape to be subtracted, for a M3 nut to floating hole)

#

however, M3 is small enough that it's hard to see up in there 😛

light stump
#

This technique definitely worked for me. Saves a lot of blobs inside of nut holders. However I found it to be a pain to do the design on a lot of holes. Does anybody have tips on how best to automate it or make a pattern to replicate this in Fusion360?

prime sentinel
#

I'm guessing that the same technique of making a stepped bolt model and subtracting it would work in Fusion360 too.

light stump
#

Makes sense. Usually I think in terms of sketches and extrusions. You’re right that making and repeating the stepped bolt model to subtract will save a lot of sketching. Makes perfect sense once you said it.

Rebuilding inventory levels -- that's good advice for everyone. Right now is a tiny bit of a calm before the storm.

Is #help-with-projects the right place to chat about, well, a project I could use some coaching on? Or is here better? (It's designed for a 96-year-old.)

#help-with-projects will probably be the best place -- this channel is typically reserved for chat during the live broadcast shows 🙂 @wooden anchor

@balmy nova Some of those keys are marked "do not duplicate", and the machines aren't stocked with those blanks as they're manufacturer controlled.

Is that a LUXury item?

plucky glen
#

I have the 2.4" Featherwing TFT, and I want to code a UI (including a graph, and buttons) in CircuitPython. I have problems finding any documentation on what library I should be looking at. I will be using either a FeatherWing Huzzah ESP32 or a Feather M4 Express, depending on my desire for WiFi connectivity, which is still an open question on this project. Where do I go to find such a library and its documentation?

QUESTION: I see you sell ShiftOut registers, but I don’t see ShiftIN registers (a) are you a fan of them ? B) any plans to make a “breakout” ( with all the resistors) or plans to make a ShiftIN feather Wing -/ use for an ESP8266 with limited pins

robust horizon

@echo canopy I think that e.g., the "74166" is the kind of device you're looking for

That LUX board is so small, you'll travel lightly.

The batteries are afraid of alien spaceships beaming signals into their brains

@plucky glen I'm not sure at what point the length becomes a problem (resistance, for instance)

Sorry! Does anyone have a good suggestion for a guide that provides "best practices" when developing a module or library for MicroPython and CircuitPython? The module is for a commercially available Bluetooth device that I'd like to create a very nice library or module abstraction for it... Thanks!

Each variant eventually needs a board in circuitpython/ports/esp32s2/boards/ ? (e.g., there's also a Saola clone-ish from Gravitech ("Cucumber", 4 distinct models), runs the Saola alpha-2 build fine so far)
