I'm making a helper circuit for my LED lamp project. This I can reuse when switching either the LED strip or the controller hardware. It's a 1000uF capacitor that sits between Vcc and GND and a 1k trim potentiometer for the data line.

There are plans to remove anything "inappropriate" by September 17, so this is maybe the last opportunity to see the uncensored version of the museum. This small museum will become a lot smaller.
I took a bunch of photos of the exhibits that I think will go away. I'm thinking of putting them up on my blog (cause the alt text would be long) but here are some of the more concise ones

Remember that $30 million military parade the president forced on everyone in June? Now our dear leader wants a redo—by sea.
Under the guise of "restoring patriotism," the U.S. Navy is planning a larger parade for this fall after the president told aides he was “disappointed.” trib.al/O2qryx6

The Simons-Laufer Mathematical Sciences institute, or #SLMath (formerly the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, or MSRI) has recently restructured its program formats, and is now announcing three new research initiatives, whose applications open on Sep 1 2025:
* AxIOM (Accelerating Innovation in Mathematics) is a new, month-long research program at SLMath, designed to accelerate innovation and introduce transformative ideas into the mathematical sciences. Programs begin in Spring 2027.
* PROOF (Promoting Research Opportunities and Open Forums) is a two-week summer program designed to provide research opportunities for U.S.-based mathematicians, statisticians, and their collaborators in the U.S. and abroad, whose ongoing research may have been impacted by factors such as heavy teaching loads, professional isolation, limited access to funding, heavy administrative duties, personal obligations, or other constraints. Programs begin June-July 2026.
* Lasting Alliance Through Team Immersion and Collaborative Exploration (LATTICE) is a yearlong program which provides opportunities for U.S. mathematicians to conduct collaborative research on topics at the forefront of the mathematical and statistical sciences. Programs begin June-July 2026.

The image depicts a portrait of a woman from the 18th or 19th century. She is wearing a red off-the-shoulder dress with a white lace-trimmed bodice and puffed white sleeves. The dress is cinched at the waist with a gold sash. The woman has long, dark hair that falls over her shoulders. She is holding a piece of paper in her right hand, which appears to be a letter, and is looking off to the side with a contemplative expression. The background is dark, which contrasts with the woman's attire and draws attention to her. The painting style is realistic, with attention to detail in the textures of the fabric and the woman's skin.

"Scientists breathe new life into climate website after shutdown under Trump."
theguardian.com/environment/20…
"Earlier this summer, access to climate.gov…was thwarted by the Trump administration, and its production team was fired in the process… Now, a team of climate communication experts – including many members of the former climate.gov team – is working to resurrect its content into a new organization with an expanded mission. Their effort’s new website, climate.us, would not only offer public-facing interpretations of climate science, but could also begin to directly offer climate-related services, such as assisting local governments with mapping increased flooding risk due to climate change."

I think no matter what your politics, the phrase "big hugs to feds" has some component you can enjoy. The phrase just has a certain ring to it. Like, if "feds" are stormtroopers in your mind, then this has the same energy as the famous "Flower Power" photo from 1967. And if "feds" means all people working within the federal bureaucracy, then this phrase means extending a hug to a group under attack.
The infosec community clearly has members in both camps.
