Nice perspective on local-first from the CouchDB/PouchDB folks @bsky.neighbourhood.ie, who have been doing this for longer than most of us neighbourhood.ie/blog/2025/06...

The rest of day 1's talks are at: m.youtube.com/playlist?lis... and day 2 should be out soon.

These two talks really gave me something to think about as well (distributed permissions and efficient encrypted sync, with crdts):

When listening to www.localfirst.fm/18 about Electric SQL, I kept thinking about Wardley Maps. When you commoditise things lower down in your value chain (e.g. websockets -> http CDN), magic things happen.

05.03.2025 08:00 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Why dynamixel decided to go out alone? In practice, the servo bus is 3 pins daisy chained between servos: ground, 7-12V power and data (half duplex). You're not going to hang anything else off that bus, so you don't need to worry about interop.
05.03.2025 08:00 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The protocol is based on emanual.robotis.com/docs/en/dxl/... . You can think of the st3215 as a cheap dynamixel rip-off, so dynamixel compatibility is quite important.

I made a library to use the st3215 #servo motors with for #embedded #rust projects: crates.io/crates/st3215
It's tested with #embassy on #esp32, and on macos. Should also work on windows/linux. It's very early days, so jump on a thread here and I'll happily help you out.

Big thanks to @hytradboi.bsky.social for an excellent conference.
Now I have a different kind of hangover (see screenshot). I will try to compact everything and write up my highlights next week.
HYTRADBOI is tomorrow! Feb 28 0900 PDT. The chat will run for days, so it's worth joining even if you can't make the early hours.
Bring all your friends too! Re-skeet, share on your favorite forum, put flyers under your neighbours doors etc.
See you tomorrow!

Dear #LazyWeb
Does anyone know of a bsky feed which surfaces posts that have gained positive consensus from usually-opposing groups?
I'm looking for something like pol.is (best explained by www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbCZ...) to combat the outrage-farming status quo on social media.
I finally got around to writing up my #FOSDEM notes.
