One thing I quickly learned as a child in public schooling is that teachers are not pleasantly surprised when you know something beyond what they do. They really, really don't like that one bit. Especially when you follow that up with "neener, neener."
Theyโ€™re not not wrong. Should they have gotten the points? #ITeachPhysics

FFmpeg is moving to Rust ๐Ÿฆ€ Our use of C and Assembly in FFmpeg has been an unacceptable violation of safety. FFmpeg will be running 10x slower - but we're doing it for your safety. All your videos will appear green - safety first, working software later.

Eventually they will not sell you computers with hard drives anymore. They will just give you terminals with internet access, so you have no control and are subject to complete surveillance.

California's New Bill Requires DOJ-Approved 3D Printers That Report on Themselves Your 3D printer needs to be on a DOJ-approved list or it can't be sold in California. Disabling the surveillance software? That's a misdemeanor. ๐Ÿป blog.adafruit.com/2026/02/19โ€ฆ

State of the Quest ecosystem: Horizon home is stuck loading forever with CPU cranked to 8. By the time you launch your app, the headset can't keep the cpu at level 8 so loading is sluggish and the SoC is at high temperature. It's been like this for 8 months...

Yeah. Rust is not a technical achievement; it is a political movementโ€”one that I increasingly view as a way to disrupt and destroy progress.

Okay, letโ€™s spice things up! Win a devkit! It looks like thereโ€™s a demand for STM32 content, and Iโ€™m more than happy to deliver. The videos will be based on the tiny, but capable STM32C0116-DK devkit. I chose this because - it has a builtin debugger - some basic stuff like a LED and joystick - you can pop the MCU board fron the middle and plug in a breadboard or a robot - itโ€™s tiny! Wonโ€™t take a lot of desk space. Thank to STโ€™s free shipping this month, I can buy a devboard for 5 lucky people. Just (publicly) repost this to enter, no โ€œlike, watch, subscribe, commentโ€. Winners will be selected on 29th, 20:00/8 PM CET, and please provide all necessary shipping info in PM, otherwise Iโ€™ll have to hop on the next winner on the list! (Check out ST eStore)

Siri works, it's not a product problem, it's a user problem. I worked on it (many years ago) for years and I learned how to ask for things so that it actually works. Post what doesn't work for you and I will comment with how you can phrase it to make it work. If I can't make it work, you can get this Apple commemoration pin (shipping worldwide). To get the pin you need to Repost this for visibility. Number of pins are limited.
