I'm a scientist and systems engineer, particularly materials science, electrical engineering, chemical engineering, bioengineering, renewable energy, um... okay, so kind of I enjoy being a general engineer and doing a little of everything.
But I love trying to help scientists turn super technical concepts into usable prototypes because I can translate biologist to electrical engineer really effectively.
I am the star trek kind of anarchist.
Discovering features in kbin -- can't find "approve follow request".
I can't follow my account here from my Mastodon account, but I found that I can search for famous accounts like @Gargron but not my own on scholar.social doesn't show up in search. Is this the quirk with instances not supporting something? I remember seeing it but am not finding where the explanation on what to do is.
Nice and timely!
I have a client that wants to do cheap devices with lots of modest quality ADCs but not a ton of specs and I'm very drawn to recommend the -S3 chips with their 20 12-bit (well, presumably really 10-bit) ADCs.
How is the health of this ecosystem nowadays? I am concerned that there are so many options, is it easy to find examples and help? I try to avoid STM32 chips because of that, and stick to the Teensy or Arduino style boards when I can help it. But I've tried the IDF and it was fine. It just didn't all quite seem, well, done.
That was some years ago, back on ARM.
I'm trying to understand the reason I can follow this account from @bipolaron, but I cannot figure out how to follow it back and it doesn't show up in my list of followers.
I guess give it a few more days... would be cool to know if I'm doing it right with an example though. I noticed that most profiles from other servers seem to have like a "virtual profile" on this server, and noticed that the one for bipolaron is a 404. Federation should in principle be working or how would I have found this profile from mastodon?
But sending messages as private, unlisted, and global with @unblended tagged don't seem to show up anywhere here, and tagging @bipolaron doesn't seem to cause any kind of notification there.
Would be helpful to figure out if I'm doing it wrong or if I just need to wait a while.
