I build Arduino libraries, embedded tools, chess engines, robotics projects, developer utilities, and the occasional game. My interests include language design, FPGAs, compiler design, kernel development, high-speed networking, embedded systems, industrial automation, paleontology, drumming, math, and skydiving.

• I write a lot of small libraries and experiments around Arduino, C++, Python, and game/search algorithms.
• The nickname Ripred came from The Underland Chronicles.
• I am looking for sponsors for Buffy the Pack Mule, my digital fossil-hunting robot and equipment carrier.
• GitHub-only contact: open an issue in ripred/ripred.

• automod - This is a template repo for syncing Reddit AutoMod settings with GitHub. It automatically updates and fetches the configuration using Pytho...
• Wheeluino - A microcontroller operated Wheel-O! A simple desktop toy that makes an Arduino control a Wheel-O toy. 😎.
• viber - AI Coding Assistant.
• unoq-balancer-brick-bot - Custom Uno-Q Balancing Robot Brick and Custom Application!
• Uno_R4_Space_Invaders - Quick and Dirty Space Invaders on the Uno R4 Wifi LED Matrix!
• Uno-Q-Defender - Defender-style game for Arduino UNO Q 13x8 LED matrix with grayscale shading, demo self-play, and parallax.
