Putting up the first entry in a series of technical posts I'm writing. "Noisefloor: Writing One Firmware for 3 Cortex-M Chips" fromplantoprototype.com/r/no… Building a single #firmware object that runs on 3 different #microcontrollers? Awesome. How? #cplusplus and no dumb SDK.

A story for @mcuban and @alexosh: Up until a few weeks ago, I knew nothing about albendazole. While traveling, I caught a case of giardiasis, by drinking some dirty water or eating contaminated food — something that could happen to anyone.

This morning, I learned that this would cost me north of $1000 for the same course of treatment in the United States. This fills me with anger. There is no innovation here that justifies the price. Zero. texasmonthly.com/news-politi…

American medicine is the best in the world? American PBMs and distributors would rather I sh-t my pants than get medicines developed in 1972 and 1975 (!) at reasonable, zero-kickback prices. I wish you two the best of luck in destroying these abominations.
Gotta love it when the latest Windows Update so badly messes up your system that the kernel scheduler no longer uses the right processor P-States and locks your laptop to its lowest possible performance even though there's obvious headroom. Thanks. @windowsinsider @Windows

Also, I'm not sure how treating your employees in an undignified fashion results in better radio programming for me, your customer. @apmdistribution
