424: Between Midnight and 6am

Gustavo Pezzi spoke with us about using fun and simple systems to explain low-level concepts and how they work in higher-level engineering tasks. For example, teaching microprocessor concepts using Atari 2600 assembly and physics by creating a simple game engine.

Gustavo's site is Pikuma.com. He has a free taster course on bit-shifting. We also talked about Atari 2600 Programming with 6502 Assembly and Physics Game Engine Programming.

Stella, a multi-platform Atari 2600 emulator

Gustavo is mentoring for Classpert's Building a Language course. (This is where Elecia teaches Making Embedded Systems.)

The conjecture about a shortage of electrical engineers was from The Register.
