It's as if it were inspired by all of the bad parts of a Dan Friedman text. :)

Re:In Almost Every European Country, Bikes Are Outselling New Cars

The thing with Bloomington is that it's very bike friendly compared to most cities of similar size and there is a substantial cyclist population considering half of the town consists of students that have nowhere to park their cars.
Your average noncollege town isn't like Bloomington.

Re:The CODE Keyboard

WASD is an established entity in the mechanical keyboard scene, so I'm sure they did most of the heavy lifting in regards to hardware.
I'm sure it will be a good keyboard (especially for enthusiasts looking to try out some Cherry MX clears).

I'm more excited to see that the project is based off one for the STM32F4. I've got one of those lying around and I'm looking forward to trying this out. :)

I'm pretty sure biology falls within the S in STEM. "Guns, Germs, and Steel" is a pop-science book, surely you could have used a more literary example to represent "the arts."

It does get to be an issue if your battery no longer holds a charge.

This would be a whole lot cooler if the Python code was actually executed on the MCU itself. As it stands it needs to be tethered to a PC.

Check out sites like https://www.sparkfun.com/, http://www.newark.com/, or https://www.adafruit.com/ if you're looking to purchase modest amounts of sensors, displays, servos, etc. for hobby projects.

Although it's not exactly math heavy, I think Steven Skiena's Algorithm Design Manual manages to bridge the gap between the "Programming Collective Intelligence" and something like Knuth's books.

Not to mention the patronizing "Now go make yourself a baba ghanoush pita!" and "This space reserved for jelly stains."
