Added a "free play area" to the otherwise unused space in the corner of the ReworkCTF board. Just a bunch of fine pitch traces on various layers, some 0402 footprints, and some vias - not wired to anything else, just a playground for circuit edit practice.
Plus a pair of crossing trace pairs on L1 and L2 that might be fun to do something with.

Sonnet 006 - VI
Then let not winter's ragged hand deface,
In thee thy summer, ere thou be distilled:
Make sweet some vial; treasure thou some place
With beauty's treasure ere it be self-killed.
That use is not forbidden usury,
Which happies those that pay the willing loan;
That's for thy self to breed another thee,
Or ten times happier, be it ten for one;
Ten times thy self were happier than thou art,
If ten of thine ten…

This is why a Mayor has to just fucking build it, rather than holding endless public outreach (and scarring city employees in the process, who are then less likely to take bold action because they're scared of getting yelled at).

Awesome new paper by @ashtonindc.bsky.social unpacking ideas about "what—and who—our streets are for" that are behind car supremacy. By analyzing what people say at public meetings, this paper makes the case that individuals are upholding car supremacy and stymieing efforts to build safe streets.

So this is getting appropriately roasted - this is not a navy problem, but a shore-based fires problem. It is also a failure to understand the situation: Trump tried to overthrow the regime and personally kill its leaders. He doesn't have a lot of 'threat' left. EU frigates won't change that.

After spending the last few weeks watching the #Artemis live stream, I brought the family to Huntsville, AL and the U.S. Space and Rocket Center. I went to Space Camp and Space Academy when I was a kid, so this whole place is a core memory for me. Time to geek out!

People Before Profit's bill to sanction the state of Israel is coming to the Dšil this week. There's a petition here calling on the TDs in the Dšil to back the bill. I've signed, please join me: https:…

Pass the Sanctions Against the State of Israel Bill
Dear Deputies, We call on you to vote in favour of the Sanctions Against the State of Israel Bill 2026 when it comes before the Dáil.  The bill is being proposed by Richard Boyd Barrett (People Before Profit) but it comes from the long-held mass movement demand for sanctions on the state of Israel.  It will be debated on 14 May and the vote in the Dáil is due to take place on 20 May. For almost three years, the world has witnessed the genocidal destruction of Gaza  - the mass killing of...

This will get better when the rack kit for the SPD3303X-E comes in but for now it's just sitting on a shelf.
