Used to be a big reader of them. I have a box still of a bunch from the ‘80s.

From Wikipedia:
"You know I am black and if it was known that a Negro woman patented the invention, white ladies would not buy the wringer; I was afraid to be known because of my color in having it introduced in the market, that is the only reason."

Who is saving whom?

Wishing the best for Particle. Have built with their products and really like the folks I met there.

My eyes played a trick and scrambled clawdbot/moltbot into Murderbot.

We’re gonna get all worked up around safety and all Moltbot will want to do is be left alone to watch a gazillion hours of Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon 😁

Embodied AI?

Cool.

Not far to connecting it to wheels and motors.

Cool. I threw myself upon the math and calibration of IMUs a while back for a few projects (actually, one was my first big one as a maker with the Tiny PICO). Tho, this last time, I finally gave up and just bought a BNO085 to do all the math for me.

But making your own calib tool is another level!
