I’ve never seen fortran before. Wow, that looks more readable than a lot of modern languages.

That's cool thank you.

I hope they add the bi flag one day.

Will this is incredible! I’ve been learning openscad and making 3d models with it using python and this is such an inspiration. Check out the latest nightly version of openscad it’s significantly faster, like seconds vs multiple minutes on my exports.

Super cool! I'm going to try this out!

The new philips hue bulb bridge supposedly can turn them all into motion sensors. Do you think this could use what ever data they are pulling from the bulbs to do that as well?

I really hope they eventually support all the web APIs chrome does like web midi. Till then if you want to use those APIs you’re making Chrome apps.

Is it possible to be a professor without a PhD? I would like to teach at a college level but the PhD path seems so risky to me to take a pay cut for years and you might not get the degree, and not a get a job.

Just downloaded it because of the animation on the site. How did you make that? it's cute.

The terminal is good. I don't have any issues with the stock mac os terminal app but I'll give yours a go for a bit. I can't tell exactly how, but it does feel faster - I'm not sure exactly how it is but it looks like it renders text faster.

Good luck!

I like Redis, it was my first queue system and it worked great. I used it for this project https://edwarddeaver.me/portfolio/control-my-lights to pass messages from multiple inputs into a central funnel.

Looking forward to reading more of your posts.

This looks really cool. How can I use it? Like can I mix it with Unity/Unreal?

Hi,

For the US 2024 Presidential election, I made a scraper that pulled the NY Times electoral college data and displayed it on my AlfaZeta flip-digit display. (Code [0])

It's very hard to get free electoral college data live, but at Syracuse's Open Data Day I learned the NY Times election data is just JSON files the whole site is powered by ~5 JSON files. So I got to work making a scraper for 2020's data and formatting for my display. I built a websocket serial server that runs on a Raspberry Pi so I could work on my laptop and test it. [1]

At 6 pm (eastern) the new data dropped and that resulted in a URL for the JSON and a new data structure. I spent the next 20 minutes parsing it out and then let it ran for the whole night. I took a timelapse of the night (linked in the website)[2] and added back the click-clack sounds I heard that night.

That’s incredible!!

Btw, how did you started making a creative tech studio? That’s something I want to do but I’m kinda lost on the selling part. How do you sell to a business that earned media is worth it?

So what would happen to Chromebooks?

This is awesome! I love that you don't need computer and deal with a DAW for it.

I’ve been putting my mechanical displays to work. Right now I have one displaying date, the current temp, the daily high temp and daily low temp. I created a web socket based serial server that gets messages and writes them to a rs232 usb device. The weather data is a node app that pulls Open Meteo data. Also learned how to make systemd service files to make it start on boot.

Cool! I used Cribl in my last job it's a great tool!

What synths do you make?

This is incredibly cool!

Are you hiring? This is really exciting work.

Have you used Polycam with an iPhone with a lidar sensor? They can scan your surroundings and export to a 3d model.

Nice job on the website! That’s sick!

This is super cool!! Back many years ago now I had a project that dealt with realtime data + geofences so I used tile38. I'm super curious to check this out!

This is really useful! Hope they continue to add features. I don’t like directly writing markdown and would rather use a text editor like Docs or Word.

This is really cool! Would it be possible in the future to add OAuth authentication via AzureAD (EntraID)?

This is so cool and just brings me a lot of joy :)

Also, I've been working on a project (non-commercial) that looks down on people and have found existing models don't work super well from that angle so thank you for publishing your work on Roboflow.

How can I trick my USA based iphone to think it's based in Europe to access these app stores?

Your company seems really cool! I love the maker spirit! Sick flip dot display, I have some from AlfaZeta, would love to get a bus one but they seem rare in the US. Photoroom seems like a fun place to work.

Are there other free (like payment) alternatives to git?

The only other one I know of that can be used for large files is https://www.plasticscm.com/ .

Have you seen Look Mum No Computer’s series on making an organ midi controlled?

This is so cool!!! Nice job on it!

I used Csound for a mit reality hack project. What an interesting system!

I would like to ask in general to the group. How do I get a job doing field work? Like working on sensors but then also going outside and working and doing analysis?
