Would anyone be interested in subscribing to a content feed where I post interesting experiments about computer science, robotics, and off-grid farming?

I'm trying to gauge interest.

Would anyone be interested in a book that teaches computer science aimed at grade-school kids but bring them up enough to understand binary serialization from ones and zeroes and various data structures and how/why they work?

This will be illustration heavy and teach fundamentals.

I'm heading to SFO to work with my colleagues in person for the first time in years. This is going to be a blast! ✈️ 🔼
Should I try #adventofcode this year? What language should I use? I'm leaning towards Encantis.

All of these are based on the same sketch I made with my markers.

Such a fun tool.

Almost home on our first day trip with the new EV. As expected we spend a fair bit of time finding working public chargers and waiting once we do find them.

It's still a bit cheaper than taking the suburban, but not by as much as hoped.

Dallas chargers were charging $0.58/Kwh! (For context we pay $0.08 as home)

We're planning a day trip to dallas tomorrow that's about 360 miles total (mostly highway speeds). The "fast" level 3 chargers are few and far between so this will be an adventure. And even assuming I find plenty and they work and aren't being taken by someone, they aren't that fast. Max speed will be 55Kw which is around 2 hours for a full charge, but it's faster towards the empty side (30 minutes for the first half, 90 for the last half)

Also, this is the cheapest of all EVs. I love the design, it's tall person friendly (I'm 6'4" and my son is even taller), and it's perfect for around town.

But the range is pretty low (250 in town/180 highway) and charging is slow. The charger it came with only allowed us two trips to town a day max.

I got a 11Kw level two charger and it's better now.

I've wanted an EV for years, but the finances never made sense. Now it does because my smallest vehicle is a suburban and I have high schoolers going to town multiple times a day. The gas savings alone cost the same as a car payment even with current high interest rates and vehicle prices.
