- Adrian McEwen: Daisy-chaining four bench power supplies to get the 110V DC that we need for it… on Saturday we finally tried applying power to the teleprinter for the first time since… last century? …the Second World War? Who knows! #weeknotes #ibal229 youtube.com/watch?v=TFp1I0…

- Martin Dunschen: I knew these old pipes would come handy for my #raspberrypi #swift surveillance setup. Night vision pic is from under eaves, ready for swifts to raise chicks as every year, between the right rafters. #weeknotes pic.twitter.com/5HL14VvsXP
- Lennon: This result was interesting. I didn’t expect such agreement. I thought I might have a little chat today about something I think is a bit of a taboo: the Voices in Our Heads…. #weeknotes twitter.com/embedded_iot/s…
- Jackie Pease: Interesting weekend testing out natural dyes with Caroline Corby. They all look loads brighter before they dry…
Nice purples and reds from Brazilian logwood. One of the dyes was made out of insects – feels like a bad thing #weeknotes pic.twitter.com/ZOWs0Lmedk
