    I am shocked that has decided to allow RMS to rejoin their board of directors. Clearly the organization does not prioritize creating a safe and welcoming environment for all parts of the free software community. I will not speak at their events again.

    I’ve been a fan of the BBC micro:bit (educational microcontroller) for the past few years, and I just got the v2 model with built-in microphone and speaker. It’s great — way easier to get started than a Pi or Arduino.
