Celebrate Pi Day by building epic robots with Raspberry Pi

sudshr47 March 14, 2019

Pi Day is finally here. The least imaginative celebrate by cooking pies, the academic indulge in a worldwide celebration of mathematics, and the stubborn insist that Pi Day doesn’t make sense because the equation is an infinite number and not 3.14. That last group never gets invited to any of the parties thrown by the first two. Oh, and if you think we’re joking: the first widespread celebration of Pi Day was in 1988, and in 2009 Congress supported the designation of March 14th as Pi Day. It’s a real holiday, not just a math joke.

As for us? We’re celebrating Pi Day with a bunch of deals on courses that will teach you to tinker with Raspberry Pi — a miniature computer that’s a great practice ground for programming your own electronics, robotics, and Internet of Things experiments. You can even use it to teach Amazon Alexa to do crazy things. Read more…

This thread about women saying ‘I think’ will make you re-think your work communication

sudshr47 February 19, 2018

Women have a lot to contend with in the workplace.

If they’re not getting mansplained, hepeated, or harassed, they’re being told they need to think, talk, and act like men.

But, this Twitter thread by a software engineer has turned on its head the notion that men’s workplace communication style is the example to follow. In fact, after reading this Twitter thread, men might consider communicating a bit more like women.

April Wensel—founder of software development company Compassionate Coding—wrote that women are “often told to avoid ‘weak’ language like ‘I think,'” but that she found that, in reality, saying “I think” is “often more accurate.” Read more…
