Daily Blog - August 12, 2026
Today I woke up pretty early and started my day way before normal. I wish I could go to bed in time to do that more often.
So I started off the day working on my blogging. It’s gotten backlogged. I can never really find time during my “days off” to sit down and do anything. There’s always a billion errands to run and places to go and things to do.
E-ink displays and ESP32s II
After working on my backlog I started playing around with the e-ink esp again. I got the kitchen-sink example running on my display! It can display images and text and animations, and it has long term sleep mode for when you aren’t going to be changing the display; it can keep a display for literal decades without power this way. Even then, the words just get blurry rather than disappear.
Now I’m looking into adding a webserver to the esp. That way I can just https in and upload the file or text I want to display auto-magically. One library that looks promising is ESPAsyncWebServer. So far no luck getting it to work but I’ve got to go to the store and get drinks, so I’ll get back to it some other time!
QM Lecture Notes
I listened to more Quantum Mechanics lectures today. This time we talked about particle-wave duality and the DeBroglier wavelength. This always fascinated me, the fact that everything has its own wavelength. This motivated me to also download and start working on the problem set.
QM Homeworks
I worked on the homework problems a little bit afterwards. They’re pretty fun so far. The second one is looking at a particle miraculously sitting on a desk! I calculated the characteristic energy of such a system. It was pretty fun.
