For the past few weeks we've had a Duck (Betty) nesting in one of the planters at work, I've made sure she had water and I've been giving her peas to eat.
This morning I was greeted by this image 😍
She had 9 eggs and so far I have counted 4 ducklings.....well done "Betty" 👏
The second pair of tracks are now fitted, the next step is to make the brackets that'll attach them to the SoundCrawler chassis and also mount the four motors.

The SoundCrawler tracks are a step nearer completion, remind me to never build any ever again !
I remember thinking to myself... How difficult can it be to build a quad caterpillar tracked vehicle like the Jawa Sand Crawler in Star Wars ?
It turns out there's a reason you don't seem to see any !

I'm on my way to the UK for the Open Hardware Summit. I'll be hosting Hardware Happy Hours in London (Cat & Mutton, Weds 28th) and Edinburgh (Old Bell Inn, Thurs 29th) and I'd love to see some of you!

Bring a hack to show off or just bring yourself :)

There will be lots of food and some drinks on offer in London thanks to @hackaday and @crowdsupply.

Come join us! Please share with London and Edinburgh hardware/hacker folks :)

Yesterday I got mocked for calling my secondary school "high school".

Using DfE data I can prove that I'm not weird - I'm just from the North West.

Does anyone know why usage of "High School" in school names is so localised?

Im currently in Paris for a micro residency at Sony CSL. This academic focused research unit from Sony exists for many years already. During the residency they introduced me to their AI prototypes, and I got to try out some AI tools that are not published. Crazy stuff. I will post a video on this in the next days!

I pulled the trigger and launched the kickstarter for SPOKE this morning.
