    I've been trying to start on embedded in my own time, but I don't have much experience at all and have been spinning my wheels getting up to speed. I'm generally YouTube/docs first…

    Turns out we should have left all the trolley wires and electrified rails in and swapped the power supply upstream. Although if we had done that a lot of our hydrocarbon dependency…
