Just placed an order for a new prototype PCB (Printed Circuit Board) for makers. This one charges NiMH (Nickel-metal Hydride) rechargeable batteries with charging speed options, support for up to 6 cells, temperature sensor, and USB-C plug.

This is a step toward our first accessibility product for blind people to feel visual art through a haptic pen-like stylus interface.

I've submitted my resignation letter to Apple. My last day will be this Friday, October 31st.

I'm starting a nonprofit company to create FOSH (Free Open Source Hardware) assistive consumer electronics, focused initially on assistive consumer electronics for blind people. I plan to release many small intermediate products for the maker community.

I plan to start working full time starting November 1st at Brain Computer Enterprises, Cooperative Inc.

Are there any good alternative mastodon-clients to mona and tweesecake, which are both screen-reader accessible and work on mac?
I know enafore is a thing, but I don't like that one very much, due to it being browser-based and very limited in its features.
