Just updated the CHRP4 project on @hackaday hackaday.io/project/190407-chr

There are now a set of 8 activities for it on GitHub, including 5 introductory activities for learners new to programming, a line-following robot starter project, and two advanced activities to teach learners how to use servos and SONAR modules: github.com/mirobotech

I've got my CHRP4 prototypes built and running! CHRP4 is a robotics derivative of UBMP4 designed for anyone teaching or learning microcontroller programming and robotics. There is a minimal parts educational starter version, a line-following robot build, and a Sumo robot build. Follow along for my project updates hackaday.io/project/190407-chr on @hackaday

Want to learn ? All of these are great options, and one even includes pushbuttons, LEDs, a beeper, a phototransistor, and an IR demodulator so you won't need to wire up a breadboard first!

Deduplicating 17 nested copies of a folder called "BACKUPS_DO NOT MOVE". Maybe "OR COPY" should have been appended also 🤔

This open-hardware PIC16F1459 development system is designed to let learners go below the level of and systems to build deeper knowledge of hardware programming and interfacing. And, with a variety of components already on board, no breadboarding is required! Check it out: mirobo.tech/ubmp4

Hey teachers, download and re-mix our free @MicrochipTech PICmicro C Programming Reference guide Google doc. It was created so students new to C (and ) programming can look up common C statements and structures. mirobo.tech/

This is terribly geeky, but I upgraded one of my external storage solutions to an NVMe M.2 inside a Thunderbolt 4 enclosure and the speeds are absurd. I've been around long enough to distinctly remember the days of 3.5" floppies, Zip disks, and the advent of CD-ROM and what computer peripherals can achieve now is mind boggling. For fun, I compared my new precious to a dollar store USB memory stick and, well, those certainly are quite different numbers. 😆

Can anyone explain to me why my computer BSODs if I DO NOT have a YT vid running... many times after about just 5 minutes while I'm looking for one to play? I can have this thing running for DAYS with vids playing non-stop.

Seriously plz. WinVista/HP laptop

(IDC if it's obvious I just need a better computer/OS... what is going on here? thx)
