Notes for the 3D printer at my co-working space.
Finally testing boards I got back manufactured last year.
A fun little web map data source.
A had this old CT scan lying around from when I had my wisdom teeth removed so I thought I’d try rendering it.
Did you know iPhone portrait mode HEIC files have a depth map in them?
What happens if you convert an RGB image to RGBA by pretending it was sitting on a white background?
An ‘exercise for the reader’ has been bugging me all week.
I had a black and white image but I wanted a black image with the white bits transparent.
Good mathematical notation is like a really good font.
Wherein I look back at what I got up to in 2024, mostly for my own benefit.

A collection of Kicad related links and notes.
Embedded Programming is fun again!
Instructions for a workshop I’m running/ran at Electromagnetic Field 2024
A small earth renderer made using ThreeJS
We needed something to lift our books a little off the surface of the windowsill…
Mostly a note to self so that I can check this when I forget late how it works.
PMTiles is a cool new technology to serve interactive vector maps from a static file.

Notes to self on selfhosting an RSS reader.
It can be hard to find genuine everyday uses of 3D printing, but after a while you do find some.
A JS library to run python snippets in the browser.

These are my notes to myself about how to setup jupyter+conda/mamba environments.
We needed some shelves to fit an odd space under a ladder…
Let’s do some raytracing through curved spacetime!
A nifty little web simulation technique to test out embedded code before putting it on real hardware.
I finally got my Sensor Watch ! It’s a replacement logic board for those classic Casio watches you see everywhere.
In which a simple thing turns out to be surprisingly in-depth!
I made a set of interactive slides for a course on the command line, complete with command line playback!
A small tool to visualise dependencies of courses.
I really like working in Jupyterlab but getting it to work nicely is always a bit challenging, these are my notes for roughly how I have it set up.
