Dr. PD is an open-source USB-C Power Delivery analyzer and programmable sink. It can sit inline between a USB-PD source and sink to show you the communication between them, or connect directly to a source and emulate a sink so you can characterize chargers and power supplies.

The goal of the project is to make serious USB-PD analysis more accessible. The hardware, firmware, and host software are all open source. The control software runs locally in Chrome or Edge with no drivers or installation required, and the platform also provides Python, JavaScript, SCPI, and USBTMC interfaces for automation.

(Sorry that I don't have a link to the GH repo yet, but you can follow the project on https://hackaday.io/project/205495-dr-pd. Also, if you read this far, I'm looking for a few beta testers. Reach out if you're interested!)

I'm impressed with the clarity of the interview. As it happens, the host sounds like he's been doing radio for many years. I predict this year more radio professionals start to jump ship from radio into podcasting.

I have to agree and this is the main reason why I went extreme and deleted my profile. My life was at a low point and seeing everybody's high point of the day made it even worse; it was a decision that took less than a second and 90 seconds later my profile was deleted. To be honest, I regret it a bit now.
