summary

Seven-minute rapid-fire demos cover working microPython on FPGA (real hardware and QEMU, $50 boards), a national course with 10,000 students need tutors, a robotics run with ~20% units out of spec and a 3D-printed fix, a proposal that tau in math module replaces 2π, PostgreSQL tricks where a trigram index: 70s→3s speeds substring search and full-text + ts_rank helps ranking, emoji-based FASTQ visual QA, a home energy ML pipeline, pyenv-style painless Python/version virtualenv management, and a GC deadlock gotcha with locks in __del__.
