Good write up, sharing with colleagues to get them onboard with automating certs! (a forever process...)

I have an RP and it's great, but I still reach for my M50 slightly more often, being a fair bit smaller with the 22mm ef-m on it and maybe more familiarity with it by me.

Ooh great to see this pop up on the HN front page - I have great memories of working with Owen at UoM :)

I love Gareth Edwards's writing!

So wonderful. It's like a modern version of deciphering egyptian tablets.

Yep would have loved more on when the watch (unmodified) would actually break and also how you would fill it with oil? There can't be much space inside, at what point does the viscosity of the oil matter? how do you know you've got all the air out?

I'm assuming they are using mineral oil; I've not filled a watch with mineral oil, but I have worked with it. Mineral oil is not particularly viscous; some gentle tapping is probably enough to get all the bubbles out.

Here's a video of a PC immersed in mineral oil with an aquarium bubbler and you can see the bubbles rise fairly quickly:

I wonder how it would have faired these days with the popularity of eBikes and scooters now.

A unifi U7 Pro is $135 vs a U6 Pro for £120 (+VAT) in the UK, so if you're in the market for an AP not much stopping you going for WiFI 7.

Of course if your internet speed isn't close to 1Gbps you probably won't notice the difference, let alone if the APs connection sits on 1 Gig ethernet link...

Interesting points when viewed through this lens. Would love someone to fact check it.
