Issue #183 - Gingerbread
Hey everyone.
Alex has run away for the day and left me in charge, so here’s your weekly roundup of Pi-goodness. This week, there’s a (largely) edible robot, a beautiful but maddeningly short-lived musical build on a mountaintop, and a way for writers to escape distractions and concentrate on creating.
Whichever your hemisphere, a solstice of some kind will happen between now and next week’s Raspberry Pi Weekly, so we hope you enjoy either the longest days or the prospect of lengthening days.
