00:25:43 James Newton: The internet relays eventually arced over.
00:26:20 Gordon Greene’s iPad: Didn’t May 3 happen already?
00:28:21 James Newton: I wanted to share this one for you guys to look at in your own time. It’s complex, but amazing and not impossible to understand. I was aware of the papers that support it, but I didn’t know about this amazing visualization / presentation:
00:28:32 Gordon Greene’s iPad: Ada Technical Books is closing 2026-06-06.
00:28:58 Doug Bell: “Build it With Arduino” has moved to the 4th Thursday of the month evenings from 7 – 9 PM. The next meeting is on May 28.
00:30:29 James Newton: Reacted to “Ada Technical Book…” with 😮

00:34:22 Gordon Greene’s iPad: There goes your political career!
00:34:48 James Newton: Oh honey… my political career was dead before it started… I can’t lie like that.
00:39:21 James Newton: That’s cute! One way rachet on one wheel.

01:10:18 James Newton: I love the springs in this… Gives the /mechanism/ some “computing” ability instead of just depending on a feedback loop.
01:16:45 James Newton: Did he say “I tank you in advance”?
01:29:54 Colin L.: Reacted to “Did he say “I tank y…” with 😂
01:30:41 James Newton: Great design and GIF of a differential wrist with 3DP gears. Notice the teeth aren’t straight.
