- Chris and Scott were talking on email about the JLink (edu) debugger that Chris got from Adafruit.
- Scott attended U of W before starting at Google on the maps team working on the bike directions overlay.
- This layer was part of "Ground truth" initiative at Google, a way to map data from the real world. Their primary dataset was from the rails to trails project.
- After he left google he was working on quadcopters and drones,which used the cleanflight / beta flight software. This was for his company Chickadee tech.
- Scott talked more about the project on the Macrofab Engineering Podcast (MEP22)
- His personal/portfolio site (as well as many of his online handles) is called Tannewt
- After showcasing quadcopters on Adafruit's Show and Tell, he was asked to port micropython to the SAMD21.
- We have talked about MicroPython on the show before when Tony Dicola was a guest
- A good place to start is asking "What is python"
- Automate The Boring Stuff book
- Interpreted vs compiled languages
- Machine code vs byte code
- MicroPython vs CircuitPython
- Ports coming for SAMD51, nRF52
- The python struct library helps for interfacing to C and hardware.
- Scott has a great tutorial about using a JLink debugger.
- Microtrace buffer allows you to store the trace location in RAM.
- You can download the latest CircuitPython release for various adafruit boards. This is the binary you can reload onto your chip that will allow you to start dropping files onto the mass storage drive.
- Radomir/deshipu showcases CircuitPython via the uGame, which is sold on Tindie
- Emily Dunham "How to automate your community"
- Bill Gates answers the "tabs vs spaces" question
- Ask an Engineer is a weekly show by Adafruit.
- Adafruit has a Discord server where they discuss CircuitPython (and other projects)
- The Adafruit CircuitPython group does a weekly voice meeting on Discord, it's later posted to YouTube
- A blog post about the plans for CircuitPython in 2018
- Scott is the one running the Seattle 3H group (Hardware Happy Hour)
- PyCon in Cleveland 2018 and 2019
- The Open Hardware Summit (OSHWA) is in Boston on Sept 27th, 2018
- Reach Scott on the Discord server or via email
