How far can JavaScript take us?

Tanner Villarete asked himself, “How far can JavaScript take us?” Then answered: Turns out, pretty dang far. This web app was my attempt at mimicking Apple’s iOS music app, and I think I’ve come pretty close! I have to admit, he did a pretty good job. The frontend is built on React and Redux. The backend? A Laravel-based API running on a Raspberry Pi! Here’s the live demo, but be nice because Raspberry Pi.

This repository contains a step-by-step guide that teaches how to create a simple operating system (OS) kernel from scratch. I call this OS Raspberry Pi OS or just RPi OS. The RPi OS source code is largely based on Linux kernel, but the OS has very limited functionality and supports only Raspberry PI 3. 6 lessons available with 5 more on the roadmap.

The new Raspberry Pi has 5 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2

Paul Miller with a good breakdown of what’s new (and what’s not) in the latest Raspberry Pi: The new board has a slightly faster 1.4 GHz quad-core processor, Bluetooth 4.2 (an upgrade from 4.1), and dual-band Wi-Fi. Sounds like an incremental upgrade, but progress nonetheless. It never ceases to amaze me how much value they cram in to these things for just $35. And so cute!
