Ideally , the extraction should last 20-30 seconds , from the first dark drips to the tan and tiger-striped crema on top that gives the espresso a full . aftertaste Marco has a beautiful espresso machine that was only missing one thing : an equally beautiful shot timer with a Nixie tube display Instead of messing with the wiring , Marco took the non-invasive approach and is using a DIY coil to detect the magnetic field of the espresso machine’s

This is a neat idea kind of a simplified Bus . Pirate We should warn you that this is an early release , and there are a few minor issues which we are sure Eric will iron out soon . We discovered the function strtol(  was misspelled in cmd_send.cpp and there are some configuration defines  which need to be sorted out in file parsePin.cpp depending on which Arduino module you are

On the surface , it looks like another Arduino UNO clone . But instead of a CPU , it contains an Intel MAX10 FPGA that runs a softcore AVR processor . Of course , that’s only part of the story . If the board was just a mock Arduino using an FPGA , that’s not very interesting for practical purposes . However , by incorporating accelerator blocks or XBs , you can add FPGA modules to the soft CPU . Max shows an example that you can see in the video below where an FPGA block controls servos

He sets up an experiment with a simple sketch on both boards and uses Wireshark to evaluate the . results Data is sent in the USB packets in groups of four characters on the ATmega-based boards , but the entire string is put in a packet on the Due board . If you look under the hood , the answer is hiding in plain sight . While the Arduino family of boards connect to your computer using a USB virtual serial port , the ATmega ones have

For doktorinjh s Spacecase you start with an enigmatic aluminum briefcase and a NASA drawstring backpack . A gamemaster reads the intro speech to set the mood , and you’re ready to start your escape from the planet . The first layer is the backpack with puzzles you need to solve to get into the briefcase . In there , you discover a hidden compartment and enough sci-fi references to put goofy smiles on our faces . We love to see tools reused as they are in one early puzzle , you use a UV LED to reveal a hidden message , but that light also illuminates puzzle clues .
