Ah, the "there is no such thing as altruism" argument. But perhaps reward and benefit transcends a single individual:
Don't hold your breath.
Tin whiskers usually don't occur with most solders, are solders are formulated to prevent them. Perhaps this is defective solder, or there was a high thermal gradient, or repeated heat cycling has fractionated the alloy?
The GPIO engine is a simple state machine that can be programmed to implement high-speed data transfer, digital video output, and many other purposes. It is one of the best and most innovative features on the Pico.
You have great consummate V's!
It's going to be like hypnosis. "When you wake up, I'll say the magic word Abracadabra, and you will believe you are a chicken and cluck while waving your wings."
Maybe the Sikh said the prayer to deliberately provoke the reaction to show the Republican's hate, as if it wasn't already understood.
Mental compartmentalization is a real thing.
I think manufacturers need to get a lot more creative about simplified computing. The RPi Pico's GPIO engine is powerful yet simple, and a good example of what is possible with some good application analysis and forethought.
I made myself a 3-D printed drain cover

And it traps the hair and I don't have problems with clogging. It's a parametric part so it can be adjusted for most drain sizes.
Computers are only at fault when its convenient to blame them.
I create an open source software modular synthesizer out of a Raspberry Pi Pico. You can see a video on it at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=252Vte4tYh0
I made a poster of my eclipse photos taken in southern Illinois. The PDF of the poster is downloadable as a 24 by 36 inch poster.

I'm having so much fun making this I thought I would share.
I am working on a simple, cheap, easy to construct multi-effects guitar pedal based on the Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller. All of the other parts are generic parts. So far I have implemented the following effects:
Noise gate, Delay, Room, Combine Effects, Bandpass Filter, Lowpass Filter, Highpass Filter, Allpass Filter, Tremolo, Vibrato, Wah, Autowah, Envelope, Distortion, Overdrive, Ring Modulator, Flanger, Chorus, Phaser, Backwards (play the last few samples backwards), Pitch Shift, and Octave (rectification).
Some effects can be cascaded inside the device. There are up to 16 "units" where each processing stage can process the results of the last stage. Various controls on the effects can be assigned to the four potentiometers at the bottom of the board, or two expression pedals you can plug into the side.
I also added a VGA output because I want to have a cool video display that changes with the audio. Also, perhaps implement some kind of guitarsynth or MIDI control.
Anyways this has been a lot of fun to make. I hope others will enjoy it too.
Burdens shared are often easier to bear than burdens borne alone.
