Today I am sharing a circuit using 3 Animating LED Stickers to light up the balloons on this card. This card also features a stamp set from Mama Elephant. https://chibitronics.com/2024/01/08/light-up-card-with-red-animating-led-stickers-and-mama-elephant-stamp-set/
In a groundbreaking discovery, scientists have unraveled an anti-gravity mystery that seemingly defied the norms of classical physics, potentially paving the way for revolutionary advancements in magnetic levitation technology. The breakthrough centers on a unique form of magnetic levitation, first demonstrated in 2021 by Turkish scientist Hamdi Ucar, an electronics engineer from Göksal Aeronautics in Turkey.
We are entering into the next phase of the digital technology revolution. Passive consumption is no longer cutting it. We need to be active and critical users. [Amish communities] designate a few community members as nerds who can try out a technology and report back on how it changed their families and their focus. The…
This year’s selectees range from a sample return from the surface of Venus, a fixed-wing aircraft for Mars, a swarm of probes to travel to Proxima Centauri and explore its system of exoplanets, and more. One of the more eye-catching is the Mars Aerial and Ground Global Intelligent Explorer (MAGGIE) proposed by Ge-Cheng Zha, a Professor of Aerodynamics at…
Brooks isn’t saying the AI industry is doomed, mind you, but that such ambitious technological advancements take time — and a lot of it. Whether the industry’s financial backers are ready to hunk down and play the long game, though, is more dubious. https://futurism.com/the-byte/robotics-expert-ai-hype-reality-check
I have learned so so much from watching Ben Eaters videos…
Zvi provides a complete rundown of current AI news, as neutral just-the-facts reporting. He covers more detail than most people would want—I just skim it—but he highlights the most important stuff… Arvind is in the “much less powerful than hyped, but with potential for dire misuse” quadrant. He combines skeptical takes on current AI technical practice (like…
NASA’s Ingenuity has racked up important milestones since it detached itself from the Perseverance Rover’s underbelly in April 2021 and got to work. On April 19th, 2021, it became the first aircraft to complete a powered, controlled extraterrestrial flight. Since that day, it has blown away expectations and completed 70 flights. Its most recent flight…
Chinese agencies are funding projects to use the Five Hundred Meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST) to conduct searches for alien signals. The Far Neighbour Project (FNP) was launched in 2023 and uses some interesting observational techniques to hunt for technosignatures from advanced civilisations. They are targetting nearby stars, exoplanet systems, local globular clusters and much…
So I entered my favorite internet radio’s URL, plus my WiFi credentials into the code and loaded it to my ESP32 using the Arduino IDE. Surely enough, I saw in my serial port that the ESP32 connected to my WiFi access point and then opened successfully the streaming radio station. I could see on my…
