Getting started on Ubuntu 25.04: see: Program Raspberry Pi Pico W with X.
Then ignore the other steps from the tutorial, as theese use the picozero package, which is broken with this error: github.com/raspberrypilearning/getting-started-with-the-pico/issues/57and uses picozero specific code. Rather, just use our examples from rpi-pico-w.
AttributeError: module 'pkgutil' has no attribute 'ImpImporter'. Did you mean: 'zipimporter'The "exascale hypothesis" is a name made up by Ciro Santilli to refer to the hypothesis that the real-time human brain simulation becomes possible at exascale computing.
It is a simple extrapolation from the number of synapses in the human brain () times the number of times each neuron fires per second.
This is the hello world program of microcontrollers: blinking and LED! Many boards have an on-board LED, making this a convenient hello world that does not require any external components.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
