How to dance with embedded Rust generics
As part of my work on Grid Bot “Tahi”, I finally figured out how to make the code for my robot re-usable as a library. Since to do this I needed to go on a deep journey into understanding Rust generic types, I thought I might share my learnings.

I’ve been reflecting on who I really am, and the ways I receive more insight into who I really am.

PIXELS FOR THE PIXEL GOD
As a break from my other open source projects, have decided to start spending my Art~Hack evenings on my next (3rd?) generation of modular LED pixels that beat to music.
