I had almost gotten my ultrasonic sonar detecting aquarium light controller to work when I ran into a weird problem: the hardware and program code
One of the things I find oddly intriguing about working with microcontrollers is that they interact with the environment. This isn’t some amazing insight, of
Yesterday I received word from WebFaction, my hosting company, that Redmine was using way more memory than my account limit. After doing some research, apparently
My next embedded programming project will involve a single board computer (SBC), rather than a microcontroller. I’ve come across several kinds in my research, but
Today I did my annual heart-in-the-mouth exercise of updating the SSL certificates which allow me to access my Exchange accounts remotely, either over the web
Configuring my Arduino aquarium script gets a little tedious when all you have is a serial port monitor in which you read and write bytes.
When I set up this blog, and the Redmine and SVN subdomains, I didn’t realize that I would need a “wildcard” SSL certificate (or multiple
