I know "ESP32 expertise exists in the Play silo" but not whose.

Full engineering cycle. Good narrative for students on why ruggedized interconnect design matters. + +### Endz has design problems +Endz is a USB-to-CAN diagnostic interface (USB Type-B at top, CAN+12V at bottom). Chris had design issues — no working units yet. If Chris wants to debug, ask about schematic or what's failing. + +--- + +## Memory Notes + +- Canjectors Gerbers stored at: `/home/topher/.openclaw/workspace-professor/canjector-gerbers/` (organized by variant) +- Wiki pushed successfully to Gitea (token: `5f182e0b77d886ba6cb217b6c99a22a95f5cdb8c`) +- Chris went to sleep ~01:54 UTC — this is the last session before Chris sleeps +- PSB Gemma recipe test: ~May 10 — ask Chris how it went + +**Still open:** +- Git push auth failure (needs manual fix or Chris running `git push`) +- PSB Gemma recipe test pending (check ~May 10) +- PSB memory problem — always-refresh rule applied, awaiting test results +- Privacy model — Chris still stewing +- Endz design problems — Chris may want to revisit + +*End of pre-compaction flush — 01:54 UTC* diff --git a/memory/connections-log.md b/memory/connections-log.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..1db465d --- /dev/null +++ b/memory/connections-log.md @@ -0,0 +1,20 @@ +## 2026-05-04 14:31 UTC +Connections found: 1 +- [HHS-Hackers] "[[M5 + Thunderbolt scaling]]" ↔ [Research] "[[MLX Distributed Inference]]" — Chris asked crash-bot about GPU scaling options, was directed to MLX. Key finding: MLX supports true distributed inference where model layers split across multiple Apple Silicon machines, both working on every token simultaneously. This is the "uber geek play" for scaling — not just two separate machines but a unified inference cluster via Thunderbolt.
