RAS2026-03-09T16:41:58+00:00At the Maker Faire Bay Area last September, a crucial conversation took place, the Role of Generative AI in Engineering Education; Microchip’s Senior Engineer, Ross Satchell dove into the double-edged sword that is artificial intelligence. We’ve all seen the headlines: AI coding assistants like GitHub Copilot can write code in seconds, and ChatGPT can explain complex concepts like a personal tutor. Satchell’s talk acknowledged this incredible potential, highlighting how generative AI can accelerate learning and boost productivity like never before....

Live 1951: Midnight Matinee
This week, the “Juke In The Back” presents a unique program designed to put the listener in a front row seat for a live rhythm review performance. So often, we wonder what a live program would have been like before the dawn of Rock n’ Roll? Well, thanks to the preservation of this 2 week program in Los Angeles from late September and early October of 1951, we...March 8, 2026RASUncategorized1950s, blues, Gospel, Jump Blues, live, R&B, Rhythm & Blues, Uncategorized, Vocal Group0 Comments
Japan Arcade Updates: Resident Evil 2/Biohazard RE:2 Arcade; Cotton Rock With You; StarHorse Party
RAS2026-03-07T06:09:07+00:00While we wait for Amusement Expo 2026 to get going in Las Vegas, there have been a few arcade happenings over in Japan to kick off the month, so now is as a good a time as ever to round those up. One of them is much bigger than the others, with the latter two being games that probably won’t come to locations outside the country, but are still worthy of some attention here. Let’s dive in:
Make: comes to Substack
RAS2026-03-06T23:10:00+00:00When Make: magazine came out in 2005, I used the word “Maker” to describe our readers and it caught on. However, we didn’t create makers; we discovered them — or re-discovered them — because there have always been makers, if not known by any particular name. Creating a quarterly print magazine (in digest size) was the starting point for Make:, a tangible and collectible thing that contains dozens of how-to projects, technology reviews and tutorials, and more. It’s always been by and...
Generating 3D Model Figures with AI
RAS2026-03-06T17:00:00+00:00It’s starting to feel like you can’t avoid AI these days. AI even took my order in the drive thru the other day, but it failed, and a staff member had to step in to fix it. The most common one most people have heard of is ChatGPT, but it’s only one of many out there. Many AI models are very specialized and can only do one thing, but not always well. The latest thing I keep hearing about in...

Doomscroll without walking into poles with this handy device
RAS2026-03-05T23:07:18+00:00Arduino Team — March 6th, 2026 A popular internet pastime is posting videos of people so focused on their phones while walking that they stroll right into light poles or other obstacles. That is funny for everyone else, but humiliating for the subject. If you want to avoid that kind of humiliation, you’ll want to build Dylan Benzekry’s DOOMSCROLLER 3000 to protect yourself from such mishaps. The DOOMSCROLLER 3000 is a device that attaches to...
