So that’s that.
Adafruit publishes a wide range of writing and video content, including interviews and reporting on the maker market and the wider technology world. Our standards page is intended as a guide to best practices that Adafruit uses, as well as an outline of the ethical standards Adafruit aspires to. While Adafruit is not an independent journalistic institution, Adafruit strives to be a fair, informative, and positive voice within the community – check it out here: adafruit.com/editorialstandards
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!

@sky – yah, it’s a puzzle. we think it was really bizarre, so much so we didn’t even want to waste time figuring out what their issue was so we replaced our post with their email to us.
Meh, best way of handling it. I like the “drop it and let the law of unintended consequences take over” to be applied in these cases. I guess they believe that no publicity is best.
The summer reading program at my local library starts on Thursday. I know that our children’s librarian would LOVE the publicity. Let’s do a post about that! 🙂
Is it just me, or is it extremely odd that adafruit would get a C&D from a “non-profit” for promoting the organization’s events?
Perhaps over-zealousness on their part, but what are they afraid would happen?

I’m more of a winter-time learner anyways.
Am I the only one that noticed the link in the C&D takes me to this post? Kate must have been predicting the future.
