481: The Girl from Evel Knievel

Chris and Elecia talk about their current adventures in conference talks, play dates, and skunks.

Elecia's talks are available on YouTube:

Chris got a handheld game console, the Playdate (play.date), and has been writing a game for it. There is an interesting looking MicroPython port for it.

We also mentioned Tiny Tapeout Demoscene which sounds pretty neat. And KiCanvas where you can see KiCAD schematics without loading KiCAD.

Our newsletter has been off but will be back to normal next week. The RSS feed is probably not fun to look at but Elecia's Rebloginator shows some Python tools for parsing feeds.

Neither the dog nor the skunk seem contrite.
