Hallo Zilpzalp. #keyboard #zmk

Today was my first day at Analog Devices, in an Embedded OSS Architect role contributing to their @zephyr work! Super excited to get to focus on Zephyr itself after all these years as a downstream consumer working on #ZMK. My work on ZMK of course will still continue, just in my spare time like it used to.

Dear muscle memory— I promise to not update this keyboard's keymap for at least the next month to give you a chance to get used to all the new key assignments and combos. Sincerely...

It wasn't easy, but a few weeks ago I added a Greek layer to my #zmk keyboard, running as a Polish input source on macOS, and it's pretty αωεσομε.

Did the #keyboard hold up?

Ugh! Finally tracked down this rp2040 UART instability to the fact that the Zephyr 3.5 driver for this has completely disabled the FIFOs, so even though I was using it in interrupt mode, RX was dropping bytes constantly.

Tweaked the driver in the #zmk Zephyr fork and it's *way* more stable. Getting a real split test #keyboard soon for really kicking the tires. Newer @zephyr releases have a unified pl011 driver that doesn't have this issue.

#zmk make me feel like I have zero experience with programming. I haven’t seen a more confusing project since decades.

Wireless corne with #zmk, only broke off one pin when soldering. :) Thank you #typeractive

I made a misstake
now I must make the yowkees/keyball board work under #zmk

Looking at how pleasant it is to remap a key on X11 using xkb, I see the point of #ZMK, flashing the keyboard firmware is simply easier.

This is the best Home Row Mods solution for #ZMK I ever found. Just brilliant.

#NixOS with #Hyprland running on a OnePlus 6T thanks to [mobile-nixos](https://github.com/mobile-nixos/mobile-nixos) and a custom bluetooth keyboard ([codroipo](https://github.com/aciceri/codroipo), with flake cosmetics on the PCB) running a #zmk firmware built with Nix and a Logitech MX Vertical mouse.

Building on the great work from ajf85 on the @zephyr support (still in a PR there), I got my XIAO RP2350 working perfectly in my Topreviung #topre #keyboard running #ZMK:

Ça y est, je tombe dans le trou noir des claviers mécaniques. #sweep commandé. Ce sera avec des controleurs #nice!nano2 pour du sans-fil avec un firmware #zmk. Je prépare ma configuration pour la disposition #ergol sur une base #arsenik. Le fer à souder va chauffer...

In today's episode of #embedded fun: stm32f4 flash sector layout is... *odd*. Trying to add #zmk support for an f401cb based keyboard someone else made, and I'm doing hoops to get tinyuf2 into the first 32K, settings in the next 2x16K sectors, and then the app loaded from the last large 64K sector.

In 10 minutes I'll be #streaming the process of writing the #zmk firmware/shield for my Toprevuing #topre/EC PCB over at https://www.twitch.tv/petejohanson

I think I’m done with #zmk

It's error messages are completely useless because they use tons of macros using macros using macros …

The next keyboard will have #qmk on it.
