IdleChrison Open Sourcing My Personal Medical Record

Was there a link to the actual MRI file and not just the JPEG slices of the damaged bone?

IdleChrison Ask HN: What are you working on?

...and my download link was broken this morning. Just fixed this in case anyone wanted to give it test drive now.

IdleChrison Ask HN: What are you working on?

Thanks for the feedback! Gif recording isn't supported yet, but definitely on my ToDo list.

(ShareX seems good, but I've always been confused about some of the random stuff they include in the 'tools'. (DNS Changer, Hash Check, Directory indexer). It never felt like a good tool for an 'everyday user', more for power users.)

IdleChrison Ask HN: What are you working on?

http://bsnip.com - A screenshot and annotation utility. I wasn't happy with any of the available options, either the price was too high, or the feature set was lacking so I decided to make my own.

I believe BetterSnipper stands out in its ability to dock to the side of the screen, making it especially good at taking/editing/uploading multiple screenshots.

I've been working on this side project for a few years now and it's starting to become more mature, but still a lot of work left and features to add, but a ton of fun to learn and see it come together.

I'd love to get any feedback or suggestions :-)

IdleChrison What are you working on?

My little Side Project: http://www.BetterSnipper.com

A screenshot utility that is more powerful than the free Greenshot, yet less expensive than the over the top SnagIt. (Free unlimited trial, $5 to buy, Donating 10% to my favorite charity).

Its got a lot of great features, and a lot more in the works. (I've now started building a light-weight editor... Learning the 'Command pattern' for Undo/Redo'ing)

IdleChrison Cheap FPGA Development Boards: What to look for

I have a personal blog (http://idle-logic.com/) where I fiddle with FPGAs. Lately I've been working with the DE0-Nano from Terasic (Altera Cyclone IV FPGA).

There is a lot of good information if you dig through the archive, but no big 'real world' projects to share yet.

For example, here is a crash course in FPGAs: http://idle-logic.com/2010/02/11/dissecting-the-cyclone-2-ha...
