If you caught any recent Coder Radio, then you know I’ve been heavily evaluating the Revolution Pi. As an industrial-grade, DIN-rail mountable compute module, it is a highly effective way to bypass the vendor lock-in that has traditionally choked the automation...
A pragmatic developer’s review of the Revolution Pi. See how this industrial Raspberry Pi breaks legacy PLC vendor lock-in with full Linux & Docker freedom.
Over the more than a decade that I've been hosting Coder Radio, there's been an evolving story about Microsoft's relationship with Linux. It's been a trend of at first resistance (think the Balmer era) and now full on embrace. Can it be? Well, if you followed Build...
Captain’s Log, Stardate 2026.86. Back in February, I made a bold claim: 2026 is the Year of the Linux Desktop, and opinionated software like COSMIC is the warp drive we’ve been waiting for. It’s one thing to talk about theoretical warp speeds in a review, but it’s...
I’ve spent a lot of time recently reflecting on 2026 as the Year of the Linux Desktop. While I stand by the idea that "opinionated software" like COSMIC is the warp drive we’ve been waiting for, looking back from the bridge of The Mad Botter reveals a different sensor...
Hey Coders! Have you ever played a strategy game like HexVeil and wondered, "How does the computer know the Knight has 15 HP?" or "How does it know where to draw the characters?" Today, we are going to crack open the engine behind HexVeil we (at The Mad Bottter) call...
