SpaceX option package for new Tesla Roadster will include ~10 small rocket thrusters arranged seamlessly around car. These rocket engines dramatically improve acceleration, top speed, braking & cornering. Maybe they will even allow a Tesla to fly …
microducks are going to show the world one obvious thing many manufacturers have been missing:
most people are absolutely ok with a cute tiny robot roaming through their house, whereas full size humanoids are creepy.
and once ducks are well trained to do small chores such as moving toys away from robotic vacuum cleaners so they can do their job, sales are going to skyrocket even further.
anyone who has young kids is going to buy one or more, for a start

BuildSeason is going great 😊
I’ve submitted my project for @schematikio’s #BuildSeason26 contest.
ROVIE: ESP32 Obstacle-Avoiding Rover

At EERC, we’re working on a line-following and obstacle-avoiding robot. We’ve started Phase 1 of the hardware build: assembling the chassis, soldering connections, and wiring up the drive system.
thinking about this more and more:
what if AI is just a precursor technology for robotics? like, AI never has a consumer moment? AI will end up only mattering to tech people...
and the average person will interface with many robots and gloss over AI powering it, the same way the average person doesn't really think about chips/CPU/GPU.

I used MATLAB to visualize the data from my smart light project. The live graph plots the Photoresistor (LDR) output against runtime, while the graph’s color indicates the LED state:
🟢 Green: LED ON
🔴 Red: LED OFF
This graph shows how light levels in real-world environments fluctuate constantly (it changes within milliseconds).
The primary goal of this project is to save energy: the LED stays ON only when it’s dark. However, for manual control, I added an ON/OFF switch for situations where the light isn't needed even in the dark (like when you’re watching a movie).
This project really tested my patience. Sometimes the code and wiring look perfect but still don’t work; I had to keep tweaking and troubleshooting to find out what was wrong. In the end, I’m so proud of the final result!
This wraps up my smart light project, and I’m excited to keep building!

if you’re not already over your existential crisis and building insane shit, idk what to tell ya

Got my Arduino kit today🥳. Inspired by my @EmekaBuilds_ my hardware buddy. And @princess_yfe, who cease not to preach her hardware story.
Mounting my pc to test some of the components.
