9600 even! :)

The arduino framework is optimised for ease of use. Battery powered devices were not the target back then when it was created. This benchmark should have used one of the many techn…

As the co-founder of Arduino I can confirm this was a great inspiration for me. I learned electronics with this kit when I was 7 and it gave me also a great appreciation for design…

have you read the actual email.. ? It's pretty bad. I've co-founded a very succesfull open source project and I can assure you a lot of people treat maintainers like crap. One guy …

The Programma 101 is an amazing device. If you are ever in Ivrea (the birth place of Olivetti) there is lovely little museum called "Tecnologicamente" where members of the original…

users, especially beginners, like consistency. So you call that "stagnation" I call that "avoid adding stuff that people don't really need". We make more than 100 different product…

Actually we're not going down that path at all. we are still doing the same things we were doing before. we have no plans for "enshittifying" our business model

What a fundamental contribution to the discussion :)

co founder of Arduino here) actually I hate web3 I think it's a pile of bullshit and it's slowly fading away... We've never been interested in that. We do sell services but we try …

no they won't... the money is used to develop our Professional products for enterprise customers.. the classic arduino will always be free. We've never build anything that would us…

Actually there are 21000 companies that have bough our products and 2000 of them just the professional tools... so the situation is very different

If you respect the open source license , you're free to use the Arduino code in products. We offer a licensing scheme for companies that want to license the hardware designs to use…

Arduino is supporting the official MicroPython project and has released ports for a number of boards in addition to tools like a simple MicroPython IDE and a GUI installer.

Hi (co founder of Arduino here) We're not doing any of that. Our partnerships based on products and whatever processor is the most useful for what we're trying to build. We're most…

Hi (co founder of Arduino here) Good old Arduino is still here, we're still releasing a ton of tools for the community, we're still innovating every day. We're using most of the fu…

it's all open source, you can see part of it here https://github.com/arduino/ArduinoCore-renesas you can use GCC with https://github.com/renesas/fsp if you want to go very low leve…

I came here just to write this... As the co-founder of Arduino I find this use of Arduino as a generic "microcontroller board" or "not a raspberry pi" a bit shocking.. :)

Arduino has a very good reputation for reliable hardware. Obviously this applies to official products. Shitty chinese clones have bad reliability issues... Even some of those chine…

it's not an ESP32 it's an high quality Murata/Cypress module this is the datasheet https://content.arduino.cc/assets/Arduino-Portenta-H7_Datash...

Hi the main processor is made of 2 separate cores and they can run different software. The processor we use it's the top of the line for STM so it's not a dollar or two. The separa…

Hi we're working in the professional market because the market is requesting it. The Portenta is a family made of a number of devices. I think you're referring to the Portenta X8. …

Interesting article but it completely ignores what was going on outside of the USA. the title should have had "in the USA" added to it

it's very easy to do with an Arduino. Get a nano 33 IoT it's enough and inexpensive. the buttons are simple to interface. to strike the bell you have two options 1 use a servomotor…

My Model 3 has this habit of randomly braking on the motorway and it's quite dangerous. There is a particular spot I pass by almost daily that I know already the car is going to su…

BTW Arduino boards can do WAY more than blinking LEDs. I guess most of the people still call Arduino the original 8bit board but since then we developed a ton of very powerful boar…
