I'm giving a free talk for O'Reilly to advertise Making Embedded Systems, 2nd Edition. The talk will be an introduction to embedded systems, geared towards software engineers who are suddenly holding a device and don't know what to do. The talk is May 23, 2024 at 9:00 AM PDT. Sign up here.I really should be working on the talk. I don't have anything super showy (like maps) or super deep (like chaos (which will be public in about a month)). Given that we talk to embedded folk on the show and I live with the best embedded engineer I know and most of my friends are you folks, I am afraid I've forgotten how to talk to normal software engineers (let's not even consider that I've forgotten how to talk to normal engineers (or normal people, that's a given)). If you know any software engineers who might be interested or managers who don't really understand what you do when you write software for things that aren't computers, please send them to the link above.
Oh heck, I probably should write the newsletter now. Or maybe work on this talk.Happy Tuesday,--Elecia
