long shot: does anyone happen to have an LTC4370 diode-OR current balancing controller eval board (DC1741B) they'd be willing to part with?

happy to pay for it, just not the $100 sale price because that's daylight robbery just to evaluate a $10 part.

April 13: What do you borrow from other fiction (or nonfiction!) genres?

I borrow a bit from epic poetry. My stories always seem to end up embedded in a grand sweep of history.

All #WritersCoffeeClub and #ScribesAndMakers authors:

Last week we wrapped up our annual #MageMadness tournament, which features spellcasters from legend, literature, media, and real life facing off in one-on-one duels. Thanks to those who participated! We had a lot of fun watching the votes come in.

For next year, I think it would be great to include some wizards, witches, and magi from the fediverse #WritingCommunity. So, if you'd like to see how your favorite magic-using characters stack up against the best in the business, please respond to this toot with your pick and the book or series they feature in. And be sure to follow the hashtag so you can support them next March.
