Right on time and not at all too late: The blog post about that machine I built to automatically attach a display to a PCB is finally here!

This project happened tangentially to the 2023 cccamp badge project, the #flow3r.

#AskFedi: How would one typically interface any kind of CPU with more demanding physical interfaces (think Thunderbolt or DisplayPort, possibly even as input)? Is it just additional ICs to handles this, does this usually get built in? How does it typically work, e.g. in huns or docks?
I am completely inexperienced in this, but have silly ideas. Happy for any pointers (I will do my own research, but I feel some amazing Fedi creatures know a lot here).

I'm really hoping for Fediverse help here.

I have a 14 year old niece. She's incredibly smart and extremely motivated when it comes to engineering things.

I want to get her some electronics stuff, like an Arduino kit, but maybe something with wearables, etc. to make it more relevant to her than just a breadboard.

She'll also need some books on electronics, since she doesn't have the background in that.

Sadly, some limitations:

- I can't help her. Her mother won't let my wife or I talk to her. This gift itself will have to be given through a third party.

- She has a learning disability around reading- likely dyslexia, and so we need material that's easy to read

- Her English is not amazing, especially because of the learning disability.

So I'm looking for a kit with a ton of instructional material. Programming, electronics, breadboard, the whole kit and kaboodle.

If you have ideas, please share, and boost!

OMFG! Saw this in my email and I thought it was a prop from Outer Wilds. But no – it's a fully-functional handheld scanner for locating radio signals from astronomical bodies! AND it looks awesome 🤩
