  Has anyone else built @blitzcitydiy@mastodon.social's great ESPN Sports Tracker in #CircuitPython but noticing that devices are now blocked? It seems URLs from a browser like safari can return API results, but from device or curl seem somehow blocked. Are others seeing this? Work around ideas?

  Continuing builds. Claude did a great job modifying CircuitPython code for a new board and new display for this CO2 environmental sensor project.

  Oh man, that would have been a great quest to join. Would have loved to have seen them for second breakfast. https://apple.news/AHTZTKGNOT6CF3ulrn_02qw

  When students visit my office they often want a sec to check out the mugs. I ask the internationals which city is closest to home. It’s always nice to share with someone from a place I’ve visited. The 9 country Euro-sprint this summer meant I needed to add a new shelf.

  Not to brag, but I still get carded… at the Star Market.

  Tasting Table wrote about “Unique Airport Restaurants From Around The World” but they missed my favorite - Melbourne’s Biggie Smalls restaurant. I definitely did a double-take at this one.

  I am happily married, but suspect that screening on dating apps would be much easier if people were require to link their YouTube comment history.

  These are people who make things that make us addicted, poor, depressed, starved of real human connection, and alienated from the world around us—in other words, the opposite of art” https://apple.news/AMXNwhJuERXmYB62sM6SwJA

  This was so kind. An exchange student who took both my #CircuitPython & my #SwiftUI apps courses made this for me. The flowers are 3D printed & the vase was laser cut. Lovely.

  Oh, man, I love seeing so much Rockport, MA and Cape Ann in Widow’s Bay on Apple TV. One of my favorite places on the planet. And it is not haunted.

  Experimenting with “always on” circuits from AliExpress so mobile phone chargers don’t auto-shutoff when microcontrollers are attached. This came with all jumpers on which heated enough to burn skin. Just 25mA wouldn’t keep alive. Just the 50mA jumper works & is not very warm. CPB can idle w/o battery off. #Maker

  With a child looking to transfer I’m seeing how US college sticker pricing is absolutely not reliable & that you don’t know cost until you have an offer & aid letter. One school about 90k gave a 30k scholarship. Not expecting it from either financial or academics.

  Hanta Virus getting way more coverage than is warranted. We’re seeing our democracy distorted with gerrymandering while voting rights are gutted. The rat disease is easily contained & not highly communicable. Don’t lose focus.

  Janky attempt at first sweater, but as the half-shirt reenters youth fashion just in time to create parental angst for many of us w/teen girls, I am tempted to stop my sweater knitting here and wear this if my youngest bares midriff. <While rubbing old man belly> “No double standards!

  Timeline cleanse. This is a nudibranch from The Great Barrier Reed. Pic taken by the photographer who I was diving with. Taken almost 2 yrs ago but popped up on my phone today.

  Funk This! Build progress in #MakerSpace. Copper pads wired to cap touch board. Pulsing lights triggered. Sound plays. I still get hangs sometimes. Ordered a Metro S3 to see if i can move away from Pico with Cowbell to see if avoiding SD card helps. And I’ll add audio meter panels. #circuitpython https://youtu.be/mxy6HrZjd9c
