So I redid the gem to support Crystal. At the time `justprep` was the best way to get includes and modules into `just` task files. I think it might still be. I continue to use it daily.

Hands-On: The RISC-V ESP32-C3 Will Be Your New ESP8266

We just got our hands on some engineering pre-samples of the ESP32-C3 chip and modules, and there’s a lot to like about this chip. The question is what should you compare this to; is it more …

I'm working on a pure Ruby network packet encode/decode module using Array#pack and String#unpack. I did one of these about 16 years ago where everything was in one class.

I'm kinda liking this current approach. Anyone do something similar? I'm expecting a little performance hit but frankly don't care at this point. #bittwiddling
