Element14 Presents
There were some toxic comments going around the internet during the lockdown about how that if you’d not managed to spin up a business or learn something new that you were some kind of failure.

Whilst building a device that could analyse your text as you type, I did manage to learn a few things. I thought the USB part of that would be simple but many hours were spent trying to get the USB Host to co-operate. The machine learning also provided challenges, processing the data is a big part of training the models and there is a wide range of different libraries and techniques. But the googlie eyes worked just as I expected.
