* https://github.com/ScottDWebster/uflash
sommersoft 12:50
@jerryn, @Andon, @deshipu for the support they've engaged in on Discord and GitHub. I may have missed mentions for others; I blame "Monday brain". @arturo182 for the nRF cleanup; excited to see that port getting attention. Group hug beyond that!
Status Update 13:36
@tannewt 14:40
* Made good progress on Celeste port to new handheld. May try to run in gameboy.
* Will jump on any 3.0.0 bugs that need it.
* More heap profiling due to memory issues w/Celeste. Likely fragmentation. Getting separate desktop
comp setup to do long running heap capture and rendering.
* start poking at nRF52840 now that I have a DK.
@Andon 17:25
Things moved. Many things, including my PC. Plus side, I have a setup I can use for Show and Tell. I also have some EL Wire in the mail I will be doing fun projects. Pic is new computer desk setup.
@cater 17:35
* Few PRs for HT16K33 repo. Closed one issue. Created new issue for other stuff!
@Dan Halbert 18:52
* Fixing bugs on ESP.
* Wrote wrapper library for Crickit so you don't need to do the init.
* Contact dan if you want to test.
* https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Crickit
* starting to work on nrf stuff as well
@deshipu 20:14
* Not as much coding as wanted.
* Played some with hardware. spider robots! https://hackaday.io/project/158981-kubik-m0
@jerryn 21:25
* finishing up other projects
* working on getting raspberry pi working with LoRa
* got nrf52840 DK board to help too
@kattni 22:52
* Working on github/git workflow guide.
* photoshopped screenshots because they were scaled high dpi and unreadable on normal screens
* pretty quick to finish.
* updating itsy m4 guide with essentials next
* finish up code of conduct too
@nis 25:36
* Did a lot of experimenting with git and github this week, and found a means to synchronize the branch to master (in terms of number of commits ahead or behind) on stackexchange.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34118404/what-i-can-do-to-resolve-1-commit-behind-master
Being able to sync allows me to experiment more freely without worrying so much about consequences.
@Dan Halbert 's suggestion to try gitk was apropos.
gitk allows me to gain good visualization of the state of my local git repository, prior to any commit.
Looked at diode clamping protection of port pins (again) this week.
I'm in the process of distinguishing placebo from useful protection.
@Noe 27:53
CPX touchtone synth with MakeCode project video + learn guide
New CPX CAD model update on github https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CAD_Parts
Released SVGs on GitHub for iron-on vinyl apparel https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Learning_System_Guides/tree/master/Circuit_Playground_Papercrafts/Vinyls
@Roy 29:44
* 4x performance for dotstars
* video in recording/on discord
* more fastled style
* aware of fancyled
@sdw_nj 32:14
* finished up uflash stuff. https://github.com/ScottDWebster/uflash/releases
* learning lots of new stuff. working with nicholas on it
* Might add gui wrapper for it.
* started looking at thonny circuitpython plugin
* updating old code based on new library changes
@sommersoft 34:33
FrequencyIn Module: I abandoned using COUNT for the time being; MP_OBJ_NEW_SMALL_INT was giving me too much grief, post math. Working on accuracy, as I believe it is largely tied to the EIC latency. Currently catching up on all the math I never did/paid attention to. Hug report to Kahn Academy? :smile:
Debating on picking up a nRF52840 Dev board. Who am I kidding; it's not a debate....
Little Leslie amp: Spent some time on this over the weekend. Salvaged a surround satellite speaker, which include a 1" tweeter, 3" mid-driver, and crossover. The Crickit's amp drove them very well. Started a SketchUp for the cabinet, and brainstorming on the rotating bits. Fighting feature creep is tough...
Discussion (In the weeds) 36:00
* neopixel and dotstar restructure discussions 36:17
* PixelBuf class in CircuitPython C. Accelerate brightness adjustments
* impact dotstar and neopixel libraries to get speed gain
* deduplicate shared code between RGB pixel strips. super class to share it all
