@haughty quiver set the encoding to UTF-8., maybe the terminal io font only contains ascii characters.
I could be wrong about that.. Havn't used anything but helvetica
When I was translating programs from English to Japanese we used to have to construct characters using individual glyphs to construct whole characters.

@rapid hornet - just catching up on your Aug-14 deep dive - you talked about forks of micropython -
what's the status of your fork? "This branch is 4569 commits ahead, 2348 commits behind micropython:master." https://github.com/tannewt/circuitpython , compared also with adafruit's "This branch is 7773 commits ahead, 2348 commits behind micropython:master." https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/ ( I guess being this "behand" makes it hard to catch up - or are you "selectively" behind - showing how circuitpython has diverged?
rapid hornet
@timid plover I don't use my fork's master branch at all, just the feature branches
adafruit/circuitpython/main is CircuitPython
we do hope to update the version of mp we're based on after 6.0.0
timid plover
I forget to look at the other branches 🙂
rapid hornet
native_wifi is my active branch for the esp32s2 stuff
timid plover
( I was out of town last week - and I wanted to "catch up" in anticipation of another deep dive on Friday )
so https://github.com/tannewt/circuitpython/tree/native_wifi is also 2348 behind micropython:master 🙂
timid plover
@rapid hornet - is your native_wifi CP5, not CP6? -- I'm seeing 5.0.0 - is that what you see too?
$ cat e:/boot_out.txt
Adafruit CircuitPython 5.0.0-beta.0-2632-g80b15f6b3 on 2020-08-21; Saola 1 w/Wrover with ESP32S2
rapid hornet
@timid plover it's 6. make sure you pull tags down
timid plover
new to me 🙂 ( git fetch --all --tags ) ?
replies "Already up to date."
curious what tool needs this?
I just did the regular "clone" as "suggested" from github - I see it git pull tags all mentioned here: https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/pull/3035
also mentioned on the micropython side: https://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?t=4164
git pull git pull --tags git submodule update --init make clean
rapid hornet
maybe you need them from the circuitpython repo?
maybe I haven't pushed them to my fork
timid plover
did a clean and rebuild - still get Adafruit CircuitPython 5.0.0-beta.0-2632-g80b15f6b3 on 2020-08-21; Saola 1 w/Wrover with ESP32S2
@rapid hornet - just to double-check - which artifact do you program ( I think you are still flashing through esptool.py, right)
assumed I needed to write firmware.bin
I think @ornate coyote has also built - has anyone else here rebuild from the native_wifi branch ( https://github.com/tannewt/circuitpython.git )
timid plover
@rapid hornet learning more by looking at ../../py/makeversionhdr.py, I see that the tag seems to come from
git describe --dirty --always --tags which reports
5.0.0-beta.0-2632-g80b15f6b3
@rapid hornet - could you have any wifi test scripts/fragments - ( or do I need to read the source and documentation 🙂 )
I guess another way to look at this is via
import os os.uname()
(sysname='esp32s2', nodename='esp32s2', release='5.0.0', version='5.0.0-beta.0-2632-g80b15f6b3 on 2020-08-21', machine='Saola 1 w/Wrover with ESP32S2')

thanks @rapid hornet - I manually installed your .mpy into /lib - single stepping via the repl - got as far as

what's the difference between the similarly named files in ../../ports/esp32s2/common-hal/socketpool:

@rapid hornet : maybe you can add "how modules get added to the circuitpython library to the discussion agenda 🙂
( both the builtin ones like SocketPool, as well as the .py/.mpy and how they flow through github to eventually join the library bundle )

During the ESP-IDF startup, external RAM is mapped into the data address space, starting at address 0x3F800000 (byte-accessible). The length of this region is the same as the SPI RAM size (up to the limit of 4 MB).

I feel like I would be locked out of all my accounts since I rely on muscle memory for all my passwords.
gusty wedge
I used to rely on muscle memory. Then, after vacations, I forgot the encryption password for the whole machine. I spent like two days trying to remember the password, then like an extra day trying to do a brute force HID attack with a circuitplayground classic, with the part of the password I tough I remembered, and guessing the one that I didn't...
At the end I had to reinstall. (always thankful for backups...)

that's a genius idea, but it's alarming that it doesn't limit the number of password attempts.

years ago I used blueproximity. So when the computer "hears" the bluetooth id of my cellphone, it unlocked auto. But that is only as secure as not having a screensaver, as bluetooth ids can be copied and cloned.

new requests worked for me - see link posted a few hours ago here
reading the restrictions in https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/external-ram.html
When flash cache is disabled (for example, if the flash is being written to), the external RAM also becomes inaccessible; any reads from or writes to it will lead to an illegal cache access exception. This is also the reason why ESP-IDF does not by default allocate any task stacks in external RAM (see below).
there are other restrictions too!

I wanted to order a board from electronic cat. But the price for getting the board from Mexico to Europe was excessif.
gusty wedge
@wind spoke I'll talk to the owner and see if they have some alternative shipping for this sort of cases. If not, I need to send a package to a friend in europe in the next weeks. I could ship the board to my friend with the package and then ask him to re-send it to you.
Oh this is so cool, I just got a package delivered, and it seems it's a Fluff M0 from @brazen grove. What a cool board...

I believe it was for the BAST Wifi that has an ESP32S2 board they made in Feather format. Do not worry for me, I can survive without it, I can wait for Adafruit to make a Feather. I have enough hardware to play with.

@gusty wedge that took a while

Well, it's always a good idea to support good companies that make hw. I feel that Electronic Cats is being very adafruity, in the sense that they are being nice to the community, they are creating content for all to learn how to make board, helping to advance people with their platform, etc.

@lilac tusk what do you plan on putting on the fpga?

it's mostly to add expanded capabilities for feathers. It can be programmed over SPI so it's just a matter of converting binaries into header files and feeding the bits over SPI 🙂

@haughty quiver For your product of the week, would you consider putting it (bmp280) in a balloon and inflating that balloon. My experiment show that the humidity sensor goes high, and pressure raise. But most of the fun is that it detect any light pressure on the balloon. So it become an interesting contact sensor, I can think of a theremine, or sending midi message. The trick would be to find a min and max value to determine the sensitivity.
prime sentinel
That's an interesting idea. I'm guessing you would get difference responses from elastic (such as rubber) and inelastic (such as mylar) balloons too.
haughty quiver
@wind spoke thanks that’s a great suggestion. I have a somewhat similar demo planned, but now I’m going to see if I can also get a balloon to work. Stay tuned!
wind spoke
@haughty quiver Benefice of the Ballon is that you can modify the pressure at ease (not easy to blow it with the I2C cable or USB cable passing, but douable). But if you find other ways to change the pressure, don't hesitate... moving it up and down does not change much the pressure. My Feather (nRF52840) Sense Express is in a balloon and the RGB LED glow (in the dark) the white balloon.
That's an interesting idea. I'm guessing you would get difference responses from elastic (such as rubber) and inelastic (such as mylar) balloons too.
@prime sentinel I went for rubber, that work well.

I haven't built any so I don't know if they happen to work "almost", "just barely", or "pretty well actually"
hard hollow
Theres something about the optics in the black led acrylic that makes the light diffusion really nice and even. Filaments with dark pigments tend to not diffuse well. With enough sanding, could make some nice panels with transparent/opaque PLA. Can also use different infill patterns to create interesting 'texture'.

Would the plural of Stemma be Stemmae?

Just wondering - are you guys planning on making a board with the GUVC-S10GD similar to https://adafruit.com/product/1918 ?
robust horizon
yup the qr code link works here @open girder
mellow ibex
I hope I'm in the correct place for asking questions...

open girder
@mellow ibex yep, we'll get to questions later in the show
mellow ibex
OK - thanks.
waxen thistle
Confirmed -- the QR code works like a charm 🙂
robust horizon
@mellow ibex what's the difference -- the wavelength it's sensitive to?
I found GUVV-S10SD but not GUVA-S10SD

@mellow ibex got it

Thanks for that Jeff - maybe I'll do that.
Earlier this year - the GUVC-S10GD was selling for a lot more than what's posted on DigiKey right now if memory serves me - I'd asked this question on twitter...

poll workers do usually get paid I think

@rapid hornet they do! for old navy they get paid by old navy and in locations that pay too
(adafruit does too)

So for some folks in the right location, you can do your civic duty and get paid...twice. Seems like a pretty sweet deal 🇺🇸

ok, I'm unsealing my voter registration (I just moved and filled it in today) that's going in the mail tomorrow and checking Yes to "Poll Worker Volunteer"!
open girder
thank you @median relic !

I've mentioned it before -- that would be a great title to lose, not being the most prolific open source hardware company 🙂

this is how we do it, one person at a time, around the USA together

last week a person here also signed up

as a poll worker you can usually vote absentee too

Even if you cannot vote, you can do so much to be involved in the civic process -- regardless of your country 🙂

Yup was pondering that today, and needed the push...thank you! Will spread the word as well on poll volunteering! We're in it together!

How much feature overlap is there between the Analog Discovery and the Digital Discovery?
fair fulcrum
do protocol analyzers have a max MHz rating like waveform analyzers or is that covered by the sample rate?

hmmm I guess if I wanted 5V from car voltage this would work a treat

yea, I think it is crazy how flexable some of the RC world boost buck converters are. but they are really expensive

I am going through the datasheet but it is not entirely clear.

Any recommendations for a contact sensor (like the touch sensors) but between two objects? Want something as flat as possible

does it have spi flash?

Question: what would I need to design a LoRa concentrator PCB from scratch?
fair fulcrum
YES small boards with a stemma connector, that will be in my collection when it comes out.
waxen thistle
How much feature overlap is there between the Analog Discovery and the Digital Discovery, if one was going to get both?
ashen hound
thanks!
frail oracle
Question: what would I need to design a LoRa concentrator PCB from scratch?
@frail oracle Like what ICs would be necessary, etc.
median relic
Do you sell HackSpace yearly subscriptions? Looks like about $120 per year, but includes Circuit Playground Express, through their website.
fair fulcrum
is that why there is a lot of 1 cell lipos that have 4 wires coming out ? those batteries have one of these fuel cell chips on it?
waxen thistle
Thanks 🙂

Any recommendations for getting started in RF engineering and RF design?

The LiPoly / LiIon Fuel Gauge says to use with a “single-cell battery”. Can we use a balanced lithium ion pack like the 3-cell 6600mAh or 2-cell 4400mAh Lithium Ion packs?

can you put a footprint for SPI flash on the bottom side?

you guys have everything going for you. You guys are using all of the things that people consider weaknesses as strengths. ❤️

Any tips for Soldering pads with really tight spacing ? Less than 2mm spacing

Adafruit definitely has inspired me to take the jump on starting to sell small designs
It’s also helping me get better at things I wasn’t so comfortable on too

Also wrote my first circuit python example for a load switch breakout I made. I need to get a CP board to try it out on haha
So feeling pretty pumped 😄
fair fulcrum
@lilac tusk awesome! did you use a simulator while writing it?
lilac tusk
No, I actually based it off a few examples on the learning section. It wasn’t a difficult or complicated example
I plan on double checking it soon though because I wrote it in a hurry
fair fulcrum
awesome, =^-^= i wouldent feel confident in my code until I saved and ran it after EVERY new line of code lol.... I am not a good coder.
lilac tusk
It takes time to get better, and in time you will 😄
fair fulcrum
the simulator extention in VScode is pretty useful
yea =^-^= thanks. I keep trying lol

Adafruit was out the last time I checked but, Tap plastic has it in stock and will cut pieces for you.
waxen thistle
It's the MVP of the LED world -- just like how 800-1200 grit sandpaper is the MVP of the plastic sanding world. 🙂
And how hockey stick tape is the MVP for putting a grippy surface on something.
And how compressed air is the MVP to instant-cool hot glue 🙂
