I just joined this platform, anyone willing to show me around?


I would love you hear what people are upto here;

  • What projects are you working on?
  • Is there any known collaborative efforts? (i.e popular projects)
  • What are some good communities?

If you can answer my questions, I hope you leave a comment :v


PM’s are open aswell if you prefer that :v

    Not programming per se, but I’ve been working on some electronics projects. If you check my profile, there’s two PCB designs that I’ve posted. They’re fairly simple, but I’m working on a larger project that I should be posting relatively soon. Currently I’m just waiting on a shipment of parts, because I didn’t realize I would need XNOR gates.

      I see, I’m not super familiar. My extent of PCB design is a custom slimevr board for myself.

      The solderable 16 byte ROM design is interesting, I could maybe see it being in some kind of debugger?

        Oh, that’s cool. I hadn’t heard of slimevr before.

        My use case for the diode ROM board is to take 4 binary input bits (16 possible combinations) and translate them into what segments of a 7-segment LED display should be lit or unlit, in order to display the corresponding hexadecimal digit (0-9, A-F). Like so:

        Diode ROM in use

        It could be used for any other case where you need to convert a 4-bit input into 16 possible 8-bit outputs. In theory you could use them in multiples for more address space, but I forgot to include an enable pin on the board to allow for that. Something to add to the next version.

          Maybe I’m not very experienced. Why would someone need a device to translate a 4-bit input to an 8-bit output, is it not just 0110 -> 0000 0110?

        we have been trying to move away from google but don’t have any other robust solution to prevent spam that’s why we are stuck with Google :(

                  We do, the library I am using isn’t the best. If you know of a good rust lib for profanity checking, feel free to share.

                  But we are kinda okay with it being a bit over-eager. It only applies to new accounts, and I am actively reverting the messages if its an error. Its scaling okay for now.

                  Just want fast enough in this case.

          The joke is that you’re doing cybersecurity, and you cannot figure out how to secure your platform without using Google to manage authentication, despite the massive amount of resources to do exactly that.

          People who are serious about cybersecurity would never use Gmail. Perhaps you should stay out of cybersecurity until you know what you’re doing.

                  You use the word “nuance,” and you simp for insecure cybersecurity products because someone was “rude.”

                  I’m cracking up. Please participate in their project. You will fit right in.

      The main page looks interesting, but I cant see much as there is only google sign in.

      also I couldn’t find a git repo but from the network tools it looks like next+react? I feel bad for you 🙏
