I can see why you're using these boards, but the ESP32 is an incredibly power hungry device. For battery/solar power it's not the best choice. For devices in the field I'd use one of the many available low power ARM cont

That's actually not a bad idea, a lot of people already have headphones with integrated microphones and processors. Noise cancellation headphones could be easily transformed into hearing aids with a change of the firmware. In fact, the

This is basically how the first transistorized hearing aids in the 60s worked. Zero innovation, and an implementation that wastes lots of power. Why would you use a volume potentiometer at the OUTPUT of the amplifier? It turns most of the o

Which means that they violate their visitor's privacy, and don't want to stop it. Funny, that such a site reports about other's privacy violations.

I can't see anything else but photos of ugly sunglasses and a lot of marketing BS. No photos or videos of what the display actually shows.

Why does nobody target the root cause? The possibility to show popups and popovers in browsers should be removed completely. There are little to no legit uses for them. Even reputable websites use them only to nag and annoy their users. And

Why do bugs nowadays have to have a name and a website? Are they security researchers or posers?

I'm glad they do. I always thought, when 1 Billion Chinese will start to drive cars instead of bicycles, we're all toast (literally). It seems, that also the Chinese government knows this, and they're doing the right thing.

The thing is, my free time isn't infinite, and python is already everywhere on the PC (I only use Linux), so I really appreciate the fact, that I have to learn only one language for both PC and embedded. Micropython runs very well on m

I always perceived Lua of being completely weird, and asked myself why people would ever want to use it. Especially nowadays, where embedded Python is everywhere.

Being able to use Bluetooth REPL for microcontrollers running MicroPython is somewhat cool, but also rises serious security concerns, if such a device is used for IoT.

Interesting. But the Altera board it runs on costs $2,995. Out of my league, unfortunately. At least privately. And professionally, I doubt that I can talk my boss into buying one.

Use a Taobao agent. They buy the stuff from Taobao, and remail it to you. yoybuy.com is an example for one.
