449: Soldering the Ukulele

Chris and Elecia talk about internetting your thing, motivating yourself with cheese, a pile of scrabble letters, an electric ouija board, and a supervillain origin story.

Elecia will be on a Memfault Panel on June 1, 2023: From Concept to Launch: What It Takes to Build and Ship a New Device

Elecia was on Alpenglow's Industries Solder Sesh #60 with Carrie Sundra. See the highlights (or the whole thing) on YouTube.

Chris has been working on building a baritone ukulele from a StewMac kit.

The conversation about uninteresting projects reminded Elecia of one of her favorite blog posts: Resilience Is a Skill

Classpert will be offering a self-paced version of Elecia's Making Embedded Systems course. Sign up on Classpert to be notified about the details.

The O'Reilly Learning System will have the first looks of the second edition of Making Embedded Systems. The full book should be out in the fall.
