Apple was "late" with introducing many leading-edge features to iPhone. ![]() What should have been clear then was that Apple's incremental approach to iPhone was both a great strength and a great weakness. By then iPhone 4 was close to launching - arguably the single-most iconic model ever with its vertical slab sides and combination of metal and glass - but it still wouldn't be on Verizon. I went to see the competing products, sold under the Droid name and when I learned they didn't have pinch-to-zoom told my favorite Verizon rep: "Call me when one does." It wouldn't be until early 2010 that the Droid Incredible was out and worth purchasing. Still, iPhone had a powerful impact on me. The phone was gorgeous that it almost never worked in the San Francisco Bay Area was hideous. A few years before iPhone, I made the mistake of switching to Cingular (the bizarre, dead brand name for what is mostly AT&T Wireless today) to get access to another exclusive: the Motorola RAZR. ![]() It left the many of us who had become convinced that Verizon was the best carrier out in the cold. The first model ran only on AT&T's network, through an exclusive deal that the late Steve Jobs had cut. Apple has sold another 1.15 billion iPhones since. What Apple had wrought with the mouse/windows/icons user interface of the 1984 Macintosh it had smashed with the multi-touch iPhone, even if the 2007 model would sell fewer than 6 million units in its first year. ![]() Calling this the multi-touch era isn't inaccurate when you consider the same technology is also on the hundreds of millions of tablets out there, not to mention convertible PCs like the Microsoft Surface.

And she has a teddy bear embroidered on her overalls. She's certainly not afraid to start nursing a big crush on Simon. She certainly enjoys food when she can get it. She's not chubby, but she's not rake-thin either. She's a genius mechanic, who finds that machines speak to her, and not a soul finds it at all strange that this mechanic is not just a girl, but a girly girl. She is the heart of the crew, loved by all of them, even if Jayne takes his teasing too far. Let's talk about how fabulous Kaylee is in this episode, shall we? I mean, just look at her. And that's not OK, no matter how great the rest of the show is.Īnd that sucks, because the rest of the show is pretty great, especially when it comes to female characters. What had the potential to be a cool, plausible vision of the future simply became cultural appropriation. ![]() It cannot say that Chinese culture is OK for the show (especially when watered down or used for mispronounced, censor-passing swearwords), but then say that Chinese people are not. It's a vital part of the story you're telling. If characters speak Chinese, wear Chinese-influenced clothes, and on and on, all because China became one of two equal powers that shaped this new civilization, then the show has an obligation to go above and beyond to ensure that a significant chunk of the cast is Chinese as well. Once a show makes a commitment to show a fusion culture, where America and China became equally powerful influences, then the requirements for the "congrats, you're not being racist" card get considerably more demanding. And as much as I love Sean Maher and Summer Glau (and I really, really do love them), it's almost insulting to have a half-Chinese culture, have characters whose surnames are Cantonese, and then cast dark-haired white actors to play them. But having characters with a Chinese surname who could pass for part-Chinese, maybe, is absolutely not the same as having Chinese-American actors in the cast. The Tams could potentially pass for half-Asian, especially given their name. There's even an interracial marriage here. I suppose that, given the state of many show casts, we should praise Whedon for creating a diverse crew, with four female to five male main characters, and several non-white crew members. ![]() Unless there was a random person in the background that I missed, the entire hour-and-a-half pilot passed without anything more than some Chinese writing, Kaylee holding a parasol, and characters bursting out into poorly-pronounced Chinese. At least as far as the pilot goes, there are Chinese influences, but there sure aren't any Chinese people. The whole thing is on Netflix if anyone wants to watch along! But I'm going to be posting episode reviews (with no spoilers for future episodes) every Wednesday until I've worked through all the episodes and the movie. Turns out the reality is a lot more complicated.īecause of the slow-burn nature of the pilot, this post is more a general musing on the world of Firefly and its characters than an episode-specific review. Combine that with the fact that Joss Whedon has been criticized more and more recently for the shallowness of his so-called feminist message, and I was really concerned that my favorite show would turn out to be heartbreaking, and not for character-death reasons. ![]() The general idea is that you set your timer counting from 0 to a “TOP” value (which may be fixed or configurable, depending on the mode), then set up a “compare” value typically via a register called something like OCR1A or OCR2B. ![]() Timer 2 is a 8-bit timer with PWM outputs on pins D11 (OC2A) and D3 (OC2B).Timer 1 is a 16-bit timer with PWM outputs on pins D9 (OC1A) and D10 (OC1B).Whilst you can create PWM signals with the 328’s Timer 0, I’m not going into that here as this timer is used by the Arduino environment for the delay() and millis() functions. But if you are wanting to create audio waveforms, then the simple analogWrite() option isn’t good enough, so you have to do it yourself. These are linked to the various outputs of the ATmega328’s three timers. If you don’t mind what base frequency you are using for your PWM signal, you can use the Arduino analogWrite() function to create your “pseudo analog output” signals, as described on the main analogWrite reference page.įor the Arduino Uno, you can create PWM signals on pins 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11 using a base frequency of either 490Hz or 980Hz depending on the pin. It is a bit more complicated than that, and the signal isn’t very “clean”, but this principle can be used to control LEDS, servos, and in our case, to generate a “pretend” analog output that can be modulated to produce audio. Using this basic principle, any voltage (on average) can be created between 0 and 5V – so a digital output can be made to “look like” an analog output to a first approximation. Why is this useful? Well if the signal is continually on (HIGH) 25% of the time and off (LOW) 75% of the time repeatedly, and HIGH is a 5V level and LOW is a 0V level, then on average the output will be 25% of the HIGH value. In one sentence, think of pulse-width modulation as a square wave with a variable relative “width” of the HIGH and LOW portions of the wave but keeping the width of the combined wave-shape the same. As described in “ Secrets of Arduino PWM” it can even be generated “by hand” by turning IO pins on and off at the right moment, but the real strength of a microcontroller is having this kind of facility built right into the hardware. The Arduino, or more specifically the ATmega328 on which it is based, has several options for creating pulse-width modulation (PWM) signals. I’ve used my Arduino PWM Output Filter Circuit and connected it to a small portable amplifier and speaker. The audio output will be happening on pin 9, so that pin needs to be connected to your output device (speaker and resistor, or output circuit), then connect the return or GND signal to GND on the Arduino.
