Three Hundred Down, Three Hundred To Go

Dave busted his knee! He'll need to get an MRI.
Chris went to Maker faire and gave a talk about revision control. He included the fact that Altium has had revision control for a long time (but not many engineers use it)
Chris' favorite display was theMonster 6502 by Eric of TubeTime.us. He did an interview with Mike from Hackaday.
Chris made an art project out of his repurposed (4x over!) badge. It's blinks with his heartbeat.
Lots of robots in the news.
Dave will soon have a moon rover in his lab!
While in SF, Chris saw former guest Mike Harrison get lessons on riding a monowheel from former guest Ariel Briner.
There's a book for learning Python for everyday automation called Automate The Boring Stuff.
Dave was happy to hear that Google admitted self driving cars are still 20 years off. However, Chris saw a video which appeared to show the driver of a Tesla asleep at the wheel (while it was still moving/driving).
Arrow teamed up with Indiegogo. It's good they're making strides to check projects, but it might hurt Arrow in the long run.
A scam came to light about the Peachy printer. However it was the high quality videos explaining the stolen money that weirded Dave out so much.
Dave made a video about the Orange Pi vs Raspberry Pi. They are different chips on board, so they have quite different functionality.
In the mailbag this week, Dave got a cyclopedia from 1924, "The complete book of applied electricity" Chris wasn't quite sure about the things that wouldh ave been included then, but found a timeline of electrical engineering.
Dave posted a formerly filmed video of sped-up layout.
The Current Source is making videos about baseline electronics subjects, the one about SCRs was great!
Chris will be holding a Denver meetup this Sunday, 5/29 at 4 pm!
