Ok, breaking for the day to go do fun stuff. βœ…Got C++ and HTTPS working in nuttx. βœ…GLVGL running nice in the nuttx simulator. βœ… First cut of a c++ relay designed for embedded.

Hahaha classic. Elon Musk I just realised you only joined the trump train after those fuckwit activist investors nuked your Tesla pay packet. Well played.

Sir Ernest Marsden would be so angry that I don't use a placemat for my coffee cups on his desk. But he inspired me to build a synchrotron so I hope he'll give me a pass.

Getting more motivated to get my carbon capture / methanol synthesis rig going. I want to generate about 5 litres of methanol a day from atmospheric carbon.

Last night I tested my electric wheelbarrow (extol dual wheel) by taking 100kg up mount victoria to see the sunset. I am taking down a chimney so will be carting over 5 tons of bricks up a muddy track and loading it into my van.

This isn’t a real thing but it did occur to me that if I can solve a dozen hard particle physics problems on the ground, and get the synchrotron running efficiently, you can fly your synchrotron into orbit and get a microtorr vacuum for freeeeee.

I'm sad to report that lions mane, strong coffee and loud AC/DC are not enough to offset this brainfog. #URTI Coding will be solid but slow today.

My spotify audio quality has been stuck on low bitrate for a month, and I can’t fix it so it’s time to migrate my playlists to Apple Music.
