Hi, I'm Ralph.
Things I do
- Software product management (figuring out which features are valuable for users, versus being easy to engineer)
- User Interface Design
- information security
- technology for political campaigns (LANS, printing, secure file sharing)
Things I'm building
- MIDIBox (plus the SID add-on)
- SN-Voice analog synthesizer using the old-school SN76477 chip
I want to do more of
- Software defined radio (aka GNU Radio)
- Amateur Radio Astronomy
Things I've done
- Run a robotics club at a local high school
- the kids were enthusiastic, and we did a sumobot competition at the end of the year
Things I use
Things I collect
- Vintage computing devices, Apple //, C64, Atari 130xe (but with I had an 800), documentation for the ECD Micromind
- ICs I think I might need in the future
