@Ishan0Today was such an insane day omg omg
I flew an RC airplane for the first time in a relatively small field which made the experience so scary omg omg
I visited the famous Seattle Space Needle which was surprisingly built in the 1960s. Also they had very cool glass art
Idk why the italics are still on dammit slack mobile but today I also played the ukulele a bit:eggsdee:I don’t actually know how to play it so I was just plucking strings in a pattern like on zephyr:ukulele-ishan:I also configured my new Mac so now it has a perfectly configured terminal and a custom Firefox theme and a lot of other essential utils and apps and I did my history homework on it
Oh and I also went to beechers which has epic Mac and Cheese (the worlds best apparently) and lasagna.
Oh and my cousin is visiting us, this was his first full day here.I’ll send my epic and very scary rc plane maiden and a photo of the plane
@taylorylee0This was the first movie I watched by myself in the theatre. Dune (2021) was visually and audibly art. Three words: I’m sucked in. 🪱 A bit of a slow burner but purposefully done… would not hesitate to watch the movie once more
@J_cordz7+Today I'm going to be sharing all the progress I've made so far with my workshops, during this last days I have been making progress on them, step by step, developing more skills on HTML, CSS and JavaScript everyday I coded on them.
It's not the best, but it's an awesome progress in my coding journey.
My own personal website and portfolio is still in dev, and there's nothing to share about it yet because I still have to figure out the total tools I will use on it, so today's workshops are Orpheus Hack Club Website which needs some improvement and Splatter Paint. Also, my other project about GitHub that I was also talking about in my scrapbook is finally setting up an organization for my Science Club and Hack Club and redesigning my high school website which will be a great project to test my abilities! And finally, today I started researching some Raycast extensions, so most likely I won't see my apps dock that often.
@J_cordz7+Today I did a lot of Biology Homework, and started submitting some interesting notes about the subject on my Obsidian vault, been on my State Biology Olympics team let me learned a lot of amazing topics and things, so I think I'll start to post Biology and other sciences things on my Scrapbook in addition to my coding and hack club things (also game development and art I'll post on the future). Today I also worked a bit on my own projects and setup GitHub Desktop as part of my coding journey, in which I'm learning now to use Git and be able to make great contributions.
Although today there is no progress of the workshops or online courses, I will work on that later!
@J_cordz7+Today I did some research on how to build a Digital Garden, which is a different approach to blogging, it seems to me that it's a good way to direct my notebook/personal website, and that it's very helpful to post about the varied topics of things that I know and want to share with the world.
Also today I advanced again in my splatter-paint workshop and saw another lecture from The Missing Semester of Your CS Education now focused on the use of Git, after watching two videos yesterday focused on Vim and Dotfiles, In addition to this, I also added new things to my Obsidian database/Second Brain of things I'm learning and that I will add into my new project in development.
@J_cordz7+Today I used this MIT course (The Missing Semester of Your CS Education) that is quite useful to learn CS topics that are not very commonly teach in online courses, which are to master the use of the tools used such as command line, editors, dotfiles, version control (Git), shell tools and many more. Today I also worked on my splatter-paint Workshop.
@J_cordz7+Today I submitted my GitHub Student Developer Pack Application, looking forward for the apps and tools it includes that will be useful in my coding journey, also, complementing the changes I'm doing since yesterday on my GitHub Account, today I setup my metrics as a GitHub Action into my README, also I did a bit more of customization on the Orpheus theme website and my personal website as part of the two activities I'm doing in the first workshop, and also checked a bit about the second one: "Splatter Paint".
@J_cordz7+Yesterday's Hack Night with @TheRealR1ke, @e-lee-za, @courtney and @ZaynB was super fun!
In other things, today there isn't any significant coding progress, just a lot of more homework done, still, I managed to paint a bit again, maybe i'll start posting art/drawings to my scrapbook too!
@ella0Bank Club Hack. I drew this today for fun :yay:
@courtney0I'm down to my final draft (before editing), and it's going really well! I'm so excited. I've changed the plot a little, but it's impacted it so much I have to change the title. 😭 Very excited to finish so I can do the cover art!! :yay:
@courtney0I finished workshop #2!! Splatter Paint is hard in my opinion, but I love the end result! I also updated the Personal Website with a 'review'. This was really fun & cool because the faster you go, the bigger the circles get, and the slower you go, the smaller they get!!

@courtney0Still working on the Splatter Paint workshop, but I also signed up to be the secretary of my Spanish Club but yo no sé español 😅
@ItsTobez0I was bored, so I made this with css and html
@hydro0I am designing my banner rn for my club, I dont think its that good but its a school club so it will get the job done 🙂
(taking benefit from my canva pro plan from github student :blobhypedance: )
@sarthak0i am working on a new site design because i got bored with the old one
@taylorylee0Planned a solo trip to Santa Barbara! I purposefully left some wiggle room in my schedule to be spontaneous. Went e-biking, bought ice cream, saw lots of art in museums, thrifting, people watching at the pier and beach, etc. Very tired but had a lot of fun
@taylorylee0I went to Festival of Arts and Pageant of the Masters and it was an amazing experience! The art paintings "come to life" and they tell the history behind each artist and painting. 10/10 recommend 🎨
(I wasn't allowed to take photos during the performance, so I'll insert a photo I found from the internet. Photo courtesy of Jeff Minton for The New York Times)
@swlittle70I saw an art museum and it didn't make me sad
@ArcadeWise0Yay for art! I spent so long on this. Its all my favorite things
@cwi0Working on a hi-res terminal art Python lib. (it's NOT zoomed out!)
@Sarthak0Learned about and coded a Barnsley Fern in p5.js! Interesting to see how Math and Computer Science can create such nice pieces of art.
@lailahn0Yesterday, I was pretty tired, but today I got a lot of fun things done! I continued my digital humanities course and started out a data science one(not sure if ill continue) and I also ran through the splatter paint workshop! It's so pretty :ultrafastparrot:
@clairebookworm0i made a cute drawing of a tunicate :togoparrot:
@clairebookworm0a bit late but I made my mom an animation for mother’s day!@courtney0I made my first full sleeve cover!
@cwi0Do you like custom slack emoji? Do you like pixel art? Combine them with PixelArt (I couldn't think of a better name!). PixelArt converts any image into pixels, and then down samples the colors to only ones that have CSS color names. It then translates these pixels into emoji. (example image below). I would really recommend NOT using this in a large channel like #lounge because a bunch of emoji can really cause browsers to lag.
Here's how to use it: just type /art <URL to image> [width] [prefix] in any public channel. Width is 20 by default, don't do more than 50! The default prefix is p, so p_cyan is :p_cyan:. There is another prefix: balloon which looks like this: :balloon_cyan:. If you want other emoji sets uploaded I have a simple way to do it. Just message me and I'll upload a full set.
Code is open source at github.com/cole-wilson/pixelart. I still have a lot to do on this, so not all images may come out cleanly.
Try it out at #pixel!
