@rapid hornet Have you seen the wifi-scanner-gui demo for the WIO Terminal?

solid wyvernBOT
simple fractal
#

mind you wont work for thinner boards.

drifting arch
#

Note: the slot is 1mm...like what I suggested...seems they had the same exprience as me.

simple fractal
#

thats a 20 pin connector, i think used usually for SFP

drifting arch
#

haha, I was looking at those also 😛

#

Exact same connector 😄

simple fractal
#

i was bored one night

#

there is another thing that handles two sizes.

#

but i fell asleep and couldnt find it in the morning

drifting arch
#

The problem with re-using a connector is breaking compatibility...you know someone will try to plug in a 2080-TI into their breadboard...probably Linus 😄

simple fractal
#

well now its 3090 , will it fit

#

the raspberrypi compute modules use standard sodimm connectors,

clever summit
#

Please write a 2080-TI library for the ESP32!

drifting arch
#

noooooooooo.....not a hub 🙂

simple fractal
#

someone asked that on an issue and they recommended using pip to install the correct packages

#

I am running a CD pipeline and it automatically replicates the esp-idf repo. and its fairly difficult to change the requirements.txt over there. Can I use a pip command to somehow downgrade after the newest package has been installed?

Yes, using pip install you can install any available version. eg, change dir to /home/{user}/.espressif/python_env/idf4.3_py3.6_env/bin then run ./pip3 install gdbgui==0.13.2.0 pygdbmi==0.9.0.2

#

....

#

not really knowing what can be done in github actions i am just lurking for the answer

wispy linden
#

Yes

#

I've not seen/used the Github review process before, pretty interesting to see it in action 🙂

balmy tinsel
#

I use github quite a bit for work, but never use the review feature it's cool to see it in action.

wispy linden
#

Set it

#

Mmm I will look for it

#

Some small BLE sensors use "advertised service data" to share the current readings, without having to connect.

#

Aaaah, nice 🙂 I've not seen that but I'll go looking

simple fractal
#

does it all add up to the total?

drifting arch
#

This is what I've been doing during the stream.

#

Soldering, testing, fixing, testing...now all working 🙂

wispy linden
#

Not on Tindie yet, doesn't exist 😄 #fakeboards

simple fractal
#

Very pretty but green

drifting arch
#

It's called Grodan (Swedish for frog)...still have to write the firmware for.

wispy linden
#

ESP32 / S2? with STEMMA QT?

drifting arch
#

STM32....it can't run CPY...only 16kb flash, 6kb ram

wispy linden
#

Ah, just saw the original image size 🙂 nice one!

drifting arch
#

F032 @rapid hornet 😄

wispy linden
#

F042? 🙂

drifting arch
#

yeah

simple fractal
#

off by 1 error

drifting arch
#

I burnt my number finger

simple fractal
#

now my vmware machine is not working with usb correctly. frustrating

wispy linden
#

localisation 🙂 all the buildings here start at 1 instead of 0/ground

drifting arch
#

I have G431...nice

simple fractal
#

so 1 is ground? is 0 basement

wispy linden
#

B1 / B2 basement

#

No zeros

drifting arch
#

0v = Ground 😄

wispy linden
simple fractal
#

i'm trying to remember if floors here start at 2

wispy linden
#

I've been following this channel on STM32 breakout board development

simple fractal
#

i saw that video

drifting arch
#

@wispy linden that video....is the reason I got into PCB design!

#

It taught me KiCAD

wispy linden
#

Includes all the schematic source, and production-ready files

drifting arch
#

Seriously...I owe a lot to that video

wispy linden
#

STM32F405RGT6

clever summit
#

Owe = blame

wispy linden
#

All the parts are "basic parts" on JLCPCB for SMT assembly

drifting arch
#

Nearly all the parts on Grodan are basic parts...I didn't solder everything on it 😄

wispy linden
#

@drifting arch same thing, his videos are a great crash course in PCB design 🙂

simple fractal
#

lol

wispy linden
#

JLCPCB don't have USB / JST connectors though right?

#

So those would be hand solder I assume

simple fractal
clever summit
#

I would argue that PHP isn't a language, but that it is a mess. 🙂

simple fractal
#

there was something on microsoft site about running wordpress on .NET core

#

instead of PHP

clever summit
#

What? How would that work?

simple fractal
#

i thnk there is a PHP to .Net compiler

#

PeachPie?

#

lmgtfy

clever summit
#

Oh. Aha.

simple fractal
prime sentinel
#

I would argue that .NET is even less of a language than PHP.

drifting arch
#

I learnt PHP in 1994...it was barely a language then

simple fractal
#

well C# is not so bad. i did about 4 months of coding, way back

drifting arch
#

@wispy linden Yes, I had to hand solder USB, JST, Switch and 2 parts which were out of stock at JLC.

simple fractal
#

i think they've gone through 5 versions since then 🙂

clever summit
#

I am doing c# since .Net 2.1...

simple fractal
#

I wrote a few C# windows programs. Instead of C/C++ and MFC

clever summit
#

Writing it in c# when you tried c++ makes you feel like you are cheating. It's not hard anymore. 🙂

simple fractal
#

interesting, my linux vm does not like the esp32 usb drive

#

true. i loved my short time with it

clever summit
#

I actually switched from Delphi.

drifting arch
#

@clever summit I did Basic -> Delphi -> C

simple fractal
#

god. too many periods

#

those were anticipation periods

drifting arch
#

I hate you bot.... ............. ........ ......

#

It likes me it seems

#

I was trying to get the bot to hate me

simple fractal
#

i did varios assemblers, pdp8/11 then algol then more assembly, then stuff, then some cobol, then pascal then c c++ etc etc

#

you are special mark

wispy linden
#

Basic (sinclair spectrum 48k) > C > C++ > Perl > Java (work) > Python > JavaScript/TypeScript

drifting arch
#

Maybe cause I'm Purple

simple fractal
#

i wonder why vmware workstation doesnt like the esp32 native usb.

clever summit
#

I should be purple as well?

simple fractal
#

orange is not my fave colour

wispy linden
#

How to become a CircuitPythonista? 😄

#

Yes please 🙂

clever summit
#

Yeah, add me.

simple fractal
#

they send a cheque every month, or people are saying that

wispy linden
#

Loving the purple 🙂 thank you

drifting arch
#

Basic -> Delphi -> C -> C++ -> PHP -> Javascript -> Java -> Python -> Ruby -> Little of Erlang -> Go -> Rust .... I know I've missed some

simple fractal
#

its ok. i can barely code hello world in Python

nova totem
#

Delphi! wow haven't heard that in a long time

clever summit
#

I am a key contributor, added the SWEDISH translation! 🙂

wispy linden

drifting arch
#

Delphi := Cool

clever summit
#

Loved Delphi.

wispy linden
#

I never ventured into Delphi

simple fractal
#

I converted a Delphi program to C#

nova totem

CircuitPython Day is dedicated to Lamba Labs:

Dedication
On August 4th, 2020, Beirut, Lebanon experienced a massive explosion that left many dead and injured, as well as leaving thousands homeless. In the aftermath, Lamba Labs Makerspace stepped up and joined the efforts to rebuild their community, including search and rescue, restoring damaged homes, and volunteering, including providing aid tents to help the community find food and shelter and joining construction engineers to help with the rebuilding process. Last year, Lamba Labs Makerspace was a partner for CircuitPython Day. This year CircuitPython Day is being dedicated to Lamba Labs Makerspace for all of the amazing work they're doing in the Beirut community. If you would like to help with their efforts, consider donating to the following fundraisers:

safe mode messages are unique to circuitpython

#

is that correct

wind spoke
#

With my 64x64 matrix controlled I felt in Safe mode frequently while developing. Could it be power related?

spring heath
#

Yes it could

#

Depending on brightness and power supply

wind spoke
#

Yeah... that was bright.

spring heath
#

Yes, bright draws more power

#

When testing, try low brightness then you cal always change later

wind spoke
#

My problem was to get out of safe mode. And that mean unplugging both the 5V and the USB. Or at least that was my way... I could have press reset or ???

Is it a requirement to own a cat to work for Adafruit?

Just a coincidence

Officially: No.

Unofficially: Doesn't hurt.

From the cat's purrspective: Meow. Yes. Meow.

that takes me back to my first microcontroller stuff circa 2002/2003, I had a 2x16 character LCD display and the photocopy of a datasheet that Limor mentioned. I did get the display to run, though.

I'd like to see LTDC support on the high-end STM32 MCUs...it'll really give graphics capabilities a boost, plus it's easy to connect to HDMI from that....

totally! hopefully jeff's framebuf stuff is a foundation for that

drifting arch
#

2nd thing, I'd love to see CPY have a full zephyr port, something I can't do on my own 😉

#

Thirdly, faster compilation (better build system)

light stump
#

Great idea @robust horizon for making it easier to find libraries. Why can’t a robot that bundle everything you need from a learn guide?

drifting arch
#

@rapid hornet interrupts 😉

rapid hornet
#

I think that's what dan is interested in

nova totem
#

I know there are lots of issues with it but having a way to add your own C code library would be nice. When I played with AHRS code CP is okay but the speed just isn't there (at least from my level!). But would be an interesting hook as people get more experience from someone who came from a C background into Python

drifting arch
#

"My First PR"

rapid hornet
#

native c modules should be doable once we update our micropython base

distant junco
#

Question - For background, I modified and compiled CPy for an ItsyBitsyM4 to support multiple displayIO (SPI) devices [thanks @rapid hornet and @paper peak for your notes on the github issue]. Anyway, I attempted to do the same with a PyPortal (adding a second displayIO option - with a goal of using a I2C OLED). The code compiled, but I can't seem to get both displays to work. Is that because (a) - it's not possible because [maybe the way the "native" 8 wire display is set up] or (b) maybe I just screwed up the code

Q: @adafruit. Thanks for CP day. CP lowering the bar for anyone to learn programming. Congrats to you and the team for building something inspiring. I'm trying to use openOCD with pi 3 to mass program my nrf52840 based boards. I got the bootloader burn to work. How can I burn in CP on the same pass?

Question for the show about Circuit python.. is it possible to get a “CPU % used” like you do on a PC/Mac?

clear matrix
#

You can get memory usage, but I don't know about microcontroller usage.

#

Memory is usually the more interesting/important piece of data to have.

waxen thistle
#

There's nothing out there that's quite like CircuitPython....and that's exciting.

distant junco
#

@rapid hornet Thanks. I'll post the sample code later this week. It's not a huge/pressing issue. Ultimately, I decided that I wanted color anyway, so I decided to wire the PyPortal to an ItsyM4 with I2C. This gives me color displays (SPI) and Capacitive Touch (with 1M resistors)

rapid hornet
#

@echo canopy we don't track cpu usage ourselves

anyone have a use for a breakout with 8 * 17 = 136 pins?

how many those edgeconnectors have? as pins

I'm a big fan of mini pcie or better, m.2 @rapid hornet

rapid hornet
#

ya, I've thought about m.2 as well

shell mason
#

yeah m.2 is great as adding memory

dim knot
rapid hornet
#

pcie is 1.6mm pcb and 1mm pitch which is nice

#

and comes in 1, 4, 8, and 16 lengths

rustic oyster
#

yeah pcie is way more approachable, esp for the 1x. Would certainly be easier to get pcbs with that pitch made.

So the active terminator doesn't even have to be at the end of the chain?

shell mason
#

@rapid hornet sure as jetson family seems to use PCIE so why not

rapid hornet

looks

if want to go outside of that devkit

I love the idea of the active terminator and running I2C over looooooong wires.

shell mason
rustic oyster
#

lmao the jetson has like... everything. pcie x4, sodimm slots, gpio, m.2 e, a camera connector

shell mason
#

having double side solarpanel helps as it get some from reflection based on how you place

rapid hornet
#

@shell mason that looks like it has pcie lanes but doesn't use the connector

rustic oyster
#

the TX2 has a 4x connector

Why did matrixportal get a level shifter?

dim knot
rapid hornet
#

ah. I don't want to actually be pcie compliant

rustic oyster
#

I didn't think you did 🙂

rapid hornet
#

though I don't want it to go poof when you do

haughty quiver
#

I didn't think that you thought he did.

rustic oyster
#

dodge the 12v lines and I think you're probably sound, right?

rapid hornet
#

the PRSNT lines might be higher too

#

and reserved pins

oooh yeah

I did my research 🙂

Question; with Arduino can I connect the Adafruit Matrix Portal to Adafruit IO? I’d assume it needs a PIN modification? Or will it work just like a PyPortal ?

I can attest to it being a bad idea to hook up your rgb matrix with jumper wires. so finicky. this thing will be so nice to have.

For questions. This is not a real/serious question, but I would still like an answer :)

Is it true that Adafruit is funding the movie Hackers II?

Question: Do you know of a distance sensor that works at around 1 to 10mm or even 40 to 50mm but with a high resolution around 0.1mm? Maybe something like ID: 164.

Hey, JP, my AQI system is the Pi 3B+ with Adafruit PM2.5 sensor out on the balcony, writing data every 5 minutes to a mySQL database inside, then a Pi Zero W reading the data, calculating AQI with the python-aqi library, and displaying it on the OLED Bonnet.
