Following the recent example of @adafruit @sparkfun and others, I re-named the default branch of most of my github repos today (and archived a bunch of has-been projects).

My WWVB clock project progress: All the way from radio signal to LED display. All geek bits displayed. Thanks @Adafruit for #CircuitPython and @brentrubell for the datetime library port!

Sadly, I can't find info about my pcb order. I recall that it was direct from asia, somewhere in the $20-$40 range for 10 boards, single-sided and no soldermask. the fab & shipping took forever. The board was designed in Eagle, way before Autodesk bought them.

From the bottom of a pile comes the first PCB I ever designed & ordered (ca 2004): A USB programer for AVR micros that apparently worked at 100 bytes/second! I was able to find my page about it on the wayback machine:

Calculate unreasonable Fibonacci numbers comparatively quickly using #Python & gmpy. fib(fib(42)) is just shy of 186 million bits (56 million digits) long. code: Benefits from multithreading modifications:

#RaspberryPiPico & #CircuitPython tip: If your PIO program isn't giving _ANY_ outputs, maybe you forgot to set pins to output mode. Right now, you have to use first_set_pin= and set_pin_count= to cover all the output pins and init= a program with a "set pindirs, N" instruction.
