**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Jan 24 02:59:59 2015 Jan 24 13:15:15 Hi, I'm new and I would like to contribute, can someone get me started? Jan 24 14:59:24 jkridner : ping Jan 24 15:00:59 jkridner : I'm invited as a speaker at FOSS-Asia to talk about "Enabling cyber physical systems using the Beaglebone Black" :) Jan 24 15:02:27 I'm planning to cover some Bonescript/PyBBIO and some PRU stuff, wondering if you have some suggestions on what I could talk about? Jan 24 17:52:57 karki_: cool! Jan 24 17:53:36 jkridner : so anything that you think will be cool to present? (like a live demo or something) Jan 24 17:53:43 it's a half an hour talk :) Jan 24 17:53:43 For people not too familiar with Linux, I like to start with "In Linux, everything is a file... making it really easy to work in any way that you'd like to do physical interactions" Jan 24 17:54:11 Hot topics today include Snappy Ubuntu Core. Jan 24 17:54:48 knowing their are some scripting language abstractions is nice.... I keep introducing people to the PRU using PRU Speak as a template, though I really need some more clean-up on it. Jan 24 17:55:02 um hm Jan 24 17:55:09 yeah, I know Jan 24 17:55:11 (and support for other GPIO, ADC, PWM, etc.) Jan 24 17:55:44 A few students were working on it if I'm correct Jan 24 17:55:47 still, it is helpful today to get blinking LEDs in under 15 minutes Jan 24 17:55:55 yeah, but they don't know what they are doing ;-) Jan 24 17:56:04 :p Jan 24 17:56:17 btw, why not chat in #beagle?
