10:07 Kevin - display io
11:25 Q: when debugging with print statements, is there a way to include the statement line number in the print string?
11:45 Question: does circuit python have the ability yet to play simultaneous audio? E.g. via 2 wav files or foreground / background. Maybe through mixer
12:58 Desktop - github - why is issue 5881 is "longterm"? https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/issues/5881 (BLE )
14:45 github BLE Adafruit_CircuitPython_BLE
17:25 desired: want to disconnect the undesired centrals! / examine the source code
19:30 Various issues involved - connection central vs. peripheral
20:55 github Adafruit_CircuitPython_BLE issues / look into device info service
22:30 back to the 2 wave files
23:53 Q:working with the analog in features on a QT pi 2040 and when I tied the pin I was reading from to ground on the board it was giving me a value other than zero, around 160. Is this normal?
24:45 Q: built latest CPY for S3 - doesn't boot on any of my S3 boards. Known issue? copy firmware.uf2 over, seems ok, re-starts, never mounts. No error on UART0 output.

40:53 limited multicore access
41:20 Q: if any of your viewers could please, please, take up i2c peripheral support for the rp2040 I would be grateful!
41:57 I2C peripheral thoughts - copy API
42:55 integrate learn guides with what user purchased

55:20 I played with the Micropython multicore a few months ago and it wasn't stable
55:39 dafruit_requests and adafruit_minimqtt would be nice to be threaded / asyncio
56:15 AIOHTTP Async IO for networking
58:30 Does Wippersnapper use mqtt?
59:10 be more sciency
1:00:20 2022 will be different with weeks off from Deep Dives
1:01:49 switching gears to ESP-land
1:02:00 Adding BLE to ESP
1:03:30 How many cores are on the ESP32-S3 ?
1:05:11 tannewt esp_ble branch
1:06:49 beyond compare / sublime merge ( git manipulation tools )
1:07:35 How much power does the ESP32-S3 use with BLE (no WIFI)?
1:10:10 Are there any examples in CP doing double buffering aka glitch free bucket logging ? Maybe via M2M ?
1:10:35 how well does the nordic power tool work with measuring other processors power usage?
1:12:09 also the JouleScope
1:12:55 any information if there are nRF52840 successors on the horizon with more RAM memory?
1:13:17 NRF 5340
1:15:00 Zepher support not in Circuit Python

1:16:49 The second core is basically just a built in HCI adapter so if you can get the IPC to work on bare metal, you don't need Zephyr.
1:17:50 Bluedroid and Nimble ( grew up alongside Zepher )
