7 hours until my weekly reset, 45% of my credits left. So I challenged Claude Opus 5.5 to build a full rally game from my childhood memories. Pacenotes, splits, a ghost car, and a co-driver who sounds like a robot. Which game would you rebuild?

WholeBoard now sims the board inside its enclosure. ESP32-C3 board, 333 mW: 42.6 °C in open air, 52.0 °C sealed in a PLA box. Add lid and side slots and it drops to 50.4 °C. Still in spec in a 40 °C room. Sealed or vented for yours? github.com/DingoOz/WholeBoar…

Ok who is going to start importing and converting CyberTrucks to Australia now? We already have a pipeline for RAM pickups etc.

Example board: a 555 LED blinker off 9V. 42x26mm, 24/24 nets routed, KiCad DRC 0 errors, JLCPCB estimate $28.87, plus a FreeCAD enclosure with BLINK engraved on the lid. Designed with a local Qwen model. What should I throw at it next?

Loving it so far. These are the speeds I am getting with Q4_K_XL on a 5060ti 16gb + 3070 8Gb and 32 DDR4 rig.

New in WholeBoard: a built-in tour. 23 steps from describing your board in plain words, through schematic + ERC, ngspice sim, TraceMaker routing, DRC, 3D renders and fab files, to a JLCPCB quote and an enclosure. Which step should I show in depth? github.com/DingoOz/WholeBoar…

New in WholeBoard: thermal sim. It settles the board in 25 °C air and tells you what's cooking. Here D1 puts out 63 mW and the hottest spot lands at 39.4 °C. It does a power budget too, +3V3 at 21% of what it can give. What should it check next? github.com/DingoOz/WholeBoar…

eMudhra had one job. Pick a 116 digit random number for a CA private key. They picked 4. Psychostick called it: "I Can Only Count to FOUR" youtube.com/watch?v=u8ccGjar…

‼️ BREAKING: The private keys of 8 certificates from Indian certificate authority eMudhra were compromised, Mozilla says. Firefox blocked them within 3 hours. Each key should be a 116-digit number, but one was just 4. Anyone can guess them and forge HTTPS certs for any website.
