The Simple Electronics Podcast - 039 - Anthony (One Circuit)

This week on The Simple Electronics Podcast, I have Anthony on for a second episode! We talk a bit more about microcontrollers and programming but end up talking about life and what we have been up to! Always good to chat with a friend!

Here is the article we talk about:

Really enjoying these podcasts! Anthony was a really interesting guest.

Thanks for reaching-out Dan, glad I subscribed! From one Canadian to another, you have that relaxed Amp-Hour sound (I convinced Pace to send Dave an ADS200 a few years ago). At 35:40 for site backups, I use mature site copier HTTrack. FWIW, for an extractor I used a smooth, high-FPM Cadillac HVAC blower from a wrecker with low RDS power FET and variable duty 555 for speed control. Cheers!

Love the One Circuit channel and blog. Has turned me on to ATTiny hardware.

Subscribed to both channels and enjoy them both. I used to love mailbag videos too see what new-tp-me things were out there. This has dwindled and only partly to C-19. Currently trying to get an ATTiny85 to transmit a PS2 controller button/stick values thru an nRF24 to control things. Friggin Hard! But I have extra 85s and need a physically small part.

Excellent pod cast with Anthony .
Regarding your issues with coding, as you obviously have graet long term skills with motor vehicles, may I suggest you think back to you first introduction to mechanical devices .
I guess they seemed terribly complicated but over time you started to understand small bits e.g. what the carburretor does or the ignition coil etc.
May I suggest that you apply the same thought processes to programming, to quote an old joke "programmers do it one bit at a time" . Looking at other peoples code is agreat way to learn often enlighten you to ideas and tecniques that you would not have considered. I say this as someone who has earned my daily bread both writing new code and also supporting/modifying legacy code ( which often means getting into the mind of the individual who originally wrote it ....) for far too many years.
As for the refence to mechanical things as a "hobby" I'm a long term motorcyclist with several ancient (1911 onwards) bikes :-) .
Appologies for the length of this comment but Please keep nibbling away with the coding it will Gel eventually.

I just noticed that your logo slowly rotates during the podcast. You sneaky devil! How long has this been going on? 😄
