Digital Preservation and Cyberpunk for Front-end Developers
summary
Recounts concrete projects and outcomes: a web-implemented Game Boy camera and Game Boy printer via getUserMedia, tiny three-component circuit boards and an 8-bit 20 MHz microcontroller that plays subway announcements, an ant-farm-to-entropy idea intended to seed OpenSSL, and a 500 km five-day bike trip for lessons in knowable machines. Covers infrastructure tools like Meshtastic mesh networks, self-hosting on a Librem/Framework or Raspberry Pi, and civic hacks such as McBroken reverse-engineered API and the Kitch Raspberry Pi fix for ice cream machines.
