Keyboarding Ain’t Easy?? What Not To Do When Building a Keyboard!!

I set out to build myself a custom keyboard from the ground up. So far, I have failed. But I’ve failed in some very interesting and informative ways, and I want to share them with you! Join me for a discussion of embedded programming, how hard soldering is, and my own naïveté on entering the world of hardware.
