@hex40:50days: day 33
still feeling pretty creatively drained :( played more unbeatable (got an A on a lv.14 in arcade mode :heidi-paws2x:) and went rock climbing! also did some brainstorming on my #C09RKNVS5SB| gift
plz enjoy another picture of my cat
@areallyawesomeusername0oh my god im so tired but look, i made my first slack bot! the name is KittenBot! it can show you cat facts, gifs, pictures and you can chat with an AI which has a cat personality! this slack bot is for Meow YSWS so that's why I made it cat themed!
repo: github.com/Snowflake6413/kittenbot
image below shows an example of the AI in action! :aga:
@tacy0Day 15 of 50 days to 2026!
We are back on slack!!! It's been a rollercoaster and stuff broke but we now have enterprize! IRC was a super fun experience that I hope we continue using which leads me to my project for the day!
Since I had a fair bit of free time this afternoon I mostly just chatted with my friends on IRC but then got inspired to make a little LLM bot to play with! It actually worked shockingly well just hooking it up really simply but I improved it a bunch to have conversation history and to be able to jump into conversations when it felt like it. I nicknamed the bot tacy and gave it the personality of a sassy and slightly eccentric dino :)
My other project for the day was making a slack <> irc bridge! This ended up being super fun and there are still improvements to be made but all the basics work! You can link your username on slack to your nick on irc and when you send a message on irc it will display it with your profile picture on slack along with your name! For users that aren't linked they are assigned a random colored profile picture that is very similar to rainbow highlighting on irc clients. Images and files work as they are uploaded to the hackclub cdn and then shared as a link which many irc clients like halloy auto expand (this also works from the irc side to slack where it is rendered as an embed)! Formatting also works both ways and I created a custom slack mrkdwn parser to handle it!
If you want to try it in slack then use /irc-bridge-user to link your user to irc nick and /irc-bridge-channel to start syncing a channel. The respective unbridge version of those commands will unlink the two and there is a /irc-bridge-list command as well. You can try the sync in #C064DNF64LU| or #C09V3DYD4QK|
@Patricia0Update for day 9-13
• School stuff
• I didn’t spend as much time as I was planning to on my milkyway/midnight project (I only did about 3-4 hours) 😔 I was feeling rather tired and I was dreading looking at my screen for some reason. My eyes were closing on their own.
• I lost my mimi streak :mimisad: But Im restarting it today 💪
• I spent these days practicing some other hobbies of mine :hugging_face: I did some art and I went rollerskating in the parking lot :roller_skate:
• On Friday I went out with my friend :woman-tipping-hand::skin-tone-2: We took some pretty pictures and we painted with coffee ☕
• On Saturday I went to an autumn bootcamp as a supervisor :female-technologist::skin-tone-2: Im ambassador in an IT organisation for teen girls in my country and this week it was my turn to take care of the in-person event 🌷
• On Sunday I spent most of the day at my grandparents’ house 👵:skin-tone-3:
@mart0oops! it's already day three for me
anyways: i've done a lot of things. mentally it wasn't going too well with me the last few days, slowly going better. also slowly picking up programming again, did like 1.3 hrs and some reading!
today I:
• added a FSM (finite state machine) for my player in my game
• made a Reddit post about my website (I need 100 upvotes for #C09L1BDSC68|, pls upvote @ www.reddit.com/r/astrojs/comments/1ox9a8h/showoff_made_my_first_complete_website_feedback)
• learned for my last test in the test week!
• worked at the supermarket :P
> maintain good grades
i got a pretty good grade for maths! 8.4/10, not bad right!
also last few days i still read a bit about godot and learned for physics and a few other subjects lol
here's a nice picture of today:
@Azzy-U08PLHD4L2J050 days challenge ❄️ Daily update #1: November 11, 2025 | Streak: 1 day :3
Stuff I did for my goals
• I finally figured out Riemann sums! Attached is a picture of my successful work after a long time of toil and not getting what this is bro (everyone says I'm a natural 'slowpoke' at math)
• I worked on redesigning social media posts for a small news organization I'm a director for, to stand out more and take less time to create each week!
• It was snowing and really cold but I went out for a run and got 5,000 steps! (not including during the day because I use my phone to track steps and can't have phones at school. but in general I don't exercise much since I'm a couch potato and I want to change that)
Productive stuff in general (kind of fulfills goal #1 to work on what "serves me")
• I completed my AP economics homework a day early
• I did my university chemistry homework 2 weeks early
• I made a 10 page study guide for my AP bio unit test and reviewed lecture slides, attached a preview of my study guide because I'm happy with it
• I wrote two 1,000 word essays for an application to represent my school at the board of education
Nice stuff
• I went to study at the cafe today and got a croque monsieur bread
• There was a nice deal for a slice of green tea cake and a latte for $9 so I got those for tomorrow's study treat
• Me and my friend's project involving building a plane is showing signs of life (the prototype is looking promising)
• I got to know a kid in this AP computer science principles class that I'm the teaching assistant for and bro is in calculus in 9th grade...
@Ferghany05/365: Learning shader programming until I can simulate a Black Hole.
Didn't do much today. Just adding changing colors to my shady mask. It won't be visible on a single picture.
@Dr.Gregory.House0Hello guys.. I made a simple wallpaper scalper... I was out for most of the summer vacationing and just got back... all that to realize that the summer hacktime has almost ended ALREADY 😢 .. anyway I needed wallpapers for my other project and decided to work on this project as an addition to the other project.. if you guys ever wanted new wallpapers or are just wanting a slideshow of random pictures on your desktok feel free to give a try
( I have to go through verification and everything so it will be a while before I ship my project) but even in its raw state I think it works pretty well..
leave any suggestions to anything that I could fix or add
github.com/TechnobladeSSM/wallpaper-scalper
@TC1000Okay no time but I read a book here's a pretty picture bye
@TC1000OK so I disappeared for a handful of days...
Basically, I was at the peak district, camping with my family and some family friends.
Did I do physics? Yes, I'm Delana for god's sake, of course I did physics.
Did I do a lot of physics? Admittedly not much, I was limited to a couple problems a day, and I read a couple physics books after splurging on Waterstones the first day of camping when we made a stop in the middle of our car ride to eat lunch.
So WHY didn't I post? Well... the signal there was rubbish. If I was really, really lucky then maybe slack would load new messages a couple of times a day. My signal was not nearly good enough to post pictures, and so while I mourn the loss of my streak, here I am, and I'm going to start posting daily again XD.
For day 18 of my Olympiad prep journey, I decided to do another past paper XD. But no one wants to see that okay I'm not bothered to get my phone out to take a picture So here's a screenshot of the paper I did instead lol. I'm going to end all my posts with a little fire emoji and a number from now on to show how many days long my current streak is :ultrafastparrot:
🔥1
@BasicBirdy0Day 1 again: didn't do any coding today but did some housework. Enjoy this picture of a crocheted pickle
@iUnstable00Day 2:
I didn’t get much work done on the neighborhood project today. Instead, I spent my morning recording a devlog video. Then, I helped a friend with his Proxmox container setup and did some maintenance on my home lab. After that, I got a bit distracted and placed an order on JLCPCB to manufacture my old project from The Trail. I broke mine during the hike, and I wanted to show my parents what I built and keep it as a souvenir. 👀
Then, I got inspired to run a local Meshtastic node in my town and connect with another friend. I’m going to meet with him tomorrow and give him the hardware since I already have some leftover from the early prototyping of my Trail project.
I don’t think I’ve shared pictures of my home lab yet, so here they are! (I took them with Project Indigo, my new favorite camera app I discovered today.)
@IbrahimAhmed0I am Ibrahim Ahmed
My project is Smart Environmental monitoring system.
My project name is: Enviro Box
It is designed for indoor places such as homes and classrooms. It measures the levels of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, fine particles such as dust in the air, temperature, and humidity. The device is equipped with an audio and visual alarm system when any danger is detected. The levels are displayed instantly on a small screen. All measurements are permanently recorded on an SD card to be reviewed when needed.
These are pictures of the shimatic, the Case, and the parts used.
@Gus0probly shoulda posted this when it was still in action but the first thing i did when i got back from china was make a tiny slack bot to randomize my profile picture every 30 minutes to a random photo i took while i was there!
code @ github.com/gusruben/slack-pfp
includes a setup guide if anyone else wants to do something similar!
@Nethul0Day 13 of #C045S4393CY| It's Friday! This means that I have a lot of free time after school and I realized something, my alarm app should be integrated into my clock app, and then I should redesign the clock app to make it look better since the original alarm look was the same since I first implemented it, so I am working on that, moving stuff around and making it look better to match the rest of the phone. The picture shows the updated look, I'm still not done with logic yet though. It looks good but there is a lot of stuff that is not done and I'll have to work on it more
@Micha0For my 3rd day of #C045S4393CY|, I stopped procrastinating and approved a pending #C07F3EA2L8G| pull request! Here's a picture of that one. I also fixed an issue with an already approved PR that didn't get all the money it deserved.
@TheRealCraig0I didn’t get a whole lot done today, but I adjusted the header spacing to move the action link to the end and changed radix ui classes. I don’t have a picture but you can see the updated version at codeboard.craigg.dev. Repo is here. (Day 4 of #C045S4393CY|)
@Nethul0Day 3 of #C045S4393CY|
Today I started implementing Face ID into my python phone, it is an algorithm that takes a one time picture of your face that only the code can see(you can change it to save on your computer to use the same face id login everytime)This makes login faster and more cool, there are no sensors involved, it is just a pure picture! I have been prototyping face id for a while but recently came up with the best design!(It's been a while since i've added something that is not an app, didn't have a log in feature before this)
@Nethul0Day 2 in #C045S4393CY|
Adding python phone into pybag so anyone can use it! Also seeing if I could add some sort of face id, no sensors just a secure face id that takes a picture of your face once, only the code can see it, then every time after that, when you log in you don't have to deal with entering passwords!(There were no passwords in the first place though lol)
Also fixing bugs in my ai chatbot app in the phone
@sam0a different type of yap today:
i like to jot and sketch random stuff down while doing things. i use to do it with paper, but it gets so messy and is kinda a waste... i got one of those cheap plastic/cardboard whiteboards from the dollar store, but those came pre scratched :melting_face: and just would not erase cleanly. the glass whiteboards at unis are sooo nice, but a smaller one is like 30 bucks on amazon :rac_pf: figured this was a good and short weekend project! a glass whiteboard really just is glass + white paint
i wanted a glass whiteboard at least larger than letter paper. glass panels were shockingly expensive and difficult to buy, and I'm not paying $10+ for just one piece of ultra-thin glass. picture frames were the next thing i tried to look for, but all the modern ones use that cheap, thin plastic film instead of glass. at a second-hand store, i found a picture frame with not one, but two 14"x11", 1/8" thick (which is pretty good) sheets for under $3 total. i figured i'd mess up the first one accidently. also bought some sand paper and white spray paint (less than $12 total)
i cleaned the glass with soap + water and then alcohol. taped up the edges and went ham with the sandpaper on the glass for better paint adhesion later. i have zero clue how to spray paint, so I applied wayy too much paint on the first try. it got sticky and i had to sand it off to be more even and fixed it with a couple more light coats and a lot of waiting in between. i did a light sanding after it dried and i had a glass whiteboard :yay: dry erase markers erase so nicely on glass
it was so worth it. costed in total less than $15, and i can make a second one, with spare paint and sand paper for other things
@AnthonyBraden0[Day 6] Making a website for my Boy Scout Troop. 19.34 hours later, I finished the recipes page, pictures page, and started on the final page, the email page. I added a section for the Scouts to sign into the Leadership position for future ideas.
@HildingLind0A remote control for a makerbuying robotic arm. It uses 2 arduino unos communicating via i2c, one for the robotic arm and one for the joysticks, so i can have a cable between them if i want to and i plan on using 2 esp32s to make it wireless in the future. I have never i2c before so i have learnt very much. Sadly i dont got any pictures of the projekt as it not here but here's a picture of the robotic arm.
@Максим0Added ability to upload pictures + some other fixes, I think I will go to prod in the next few days
@CBerJun0Today I wrote a Hello World! program. In fact, it was written in a programming language I invented. The Muffin language lets you write programs that look like cooking recipes. The picture below shows how the compiler compiles the Hello world recipe into a big chunk of js code that (surprisingly) prints out Hello world. Most part of the code generator was done now. Repo: github.com/CBerJun/Muffin
@CBerJun0Continue working on Muffin (a weird programming language that allows you to write programs that look like cooking recipes) Regarding the syntax I changed the "dilute" statement into "add water" to make it less redundant. Day three working on the parser; today I implemented the "add ... into ..." grammar; the picture below shows a sample program that doesn't make sense and the AST generated for it by the compiler. Look at github.com/CBerJun/Muffin for the draft design of Muffin. (Day 4 on Scrapbook)
@mart0Day Three of making a Cute Pixel-Art Pomodoro Timer Browser Extension -- coding time: ~2 hoursFor day one and two, see my discord server here:discord.com/channels/1178803368806842408/1310350396396666910But since you can earn doubloons now, I gotta post them here too!
I made a shit ton of progress today. The first video is how it looked before today, the second video and the second picture how it looks now.
This is what I added (among other things:)
• A cute pixel art font and nice colors
• A selector for different timers (pomodoro, short and long break)
• Made the timer reset to its original time after it finished
• Disabled the selector when a timer is running already. You can click "pause" and then you're able to start a new timer.
@CBerJun0Continue to work on Muffin (a weird programming language that allows you to write programs that look like cooking recipes) Day two working on the parser; today I implemented the "if" predicate and "set up" grammar; the picture below shows a sample program that doesn't make sense and the AST generated for it by the compiler. (Day 3 on Scrapbook)
@jsw080Finished an image upload command for my bot. Now my friends can upload stupid pictures of eachother, keep them al in a central place and send them when the time is right.@JigmetAvinash0Loving NextJS so far. The way NextJS handles things is new for me, although I have made many apps I never actually learned anything, but this time I am making myself to the top. Anyways, My project is a part of a bigger picture, a full fledged productivity app. ChopProductivity will be one big productivity ecosystem of a app. Currently I am trying to make a local-db based pomodoro, then it will be a google-sign in prismaDB based cloud stored pomodoro app, then I will expand it to To-Do Lists and futher get it on multiple frameworks and platforms to increase my own productivity along with many others. Wish Me Luck. Made AT Highseas
@Alfonso0Hello! Ever had a physics assignment that took too long for you? Ever tried using Chatgpt but the results just didn't feel right? Look no further! I'm working on a program that will solve all of your physics assignments in seconds, Pysics! The picture you're seeing is me using the functions i wrote to solve a physics assignment from my 9th grade book which i couldn't solve back in 9th grade. Also, I'm not using any external libraries to do this (other than matplotlib), not even Math or Numpy!
@jsw080I finally finished the sexy-get command for my discord bot! It allows me and my friends in my discord server to have a collection of ugly pictures of eachother and share them when the time is right.
@JadeKuehnel0Added new pages to my site, a drop down menu and did lots of image organizing, did a lot more not shown in pictures.
@msw0Update 3: I've trained a LORA over the weekend to help me come up with more reference art and help inspire me as I work on scenes. Here you can see a picture I drew in figma yesterday and today (still missing a subject, but I've got the far clouds and the close shore created) and an XY plot of some different art generation settings I was playing with, and the comfyui node configuration I used to generate the reference pics!
@mihir0ship time 🗣️
For times when they need blood urgently, they have one person painstakingly go through the sheet, filter out donors who haven’t donated in over three months, check if they meet certain other criteria, find out their distance from the center by putting in their address on google maps or something and individually call them on the phone and ask if they can donate. idk about you but no one deserves to go through that 💀
I asked the manager of the blood bank if I could maybe build something to help solve this as a summer project, and he, being the awesome person he is, agreed and even offered to take me around the blood bank!
Here's an outline of the app and how it works. i've also posted a huge writeup + pictures from the tour of the blood bank in #C07JBQW5W3X|! (shameless plug 😋)
@GregorDavies-U04FX4ZMBJ90I shipped a opensource motor controller and datalogging system for Greenpower race cars, designed in order to maximise the speed and reduce the cost of these vechiles designed by young engineers and university teams. The motor controller is based around the RPI pico w and is a simple THT based pcb easy for teenagers to assemble and fix when at races, it's currently being made by jlcpcb thanks to onboard and I should be able to fit it to the car next week. Picture of me and my friends car jaws included which has been 13 years of work in the making. github.com/Gregor-Davies/Zevallos

@MNT0EcoSnap [Personal Assistant for Sustainable Living]!
I’m thrilled to share the progress on EcoSnap, a personal assistant application designed to help users make eco-friendly choices effortlessly. This project has been a journey of integrating emerging technologies and sustainability.
Check out the repository: github.com/MNTadros/EcoSnap
Here are some progress pictures showcasing the app in action:
@tyzrichard0Over the last few months, I took part in a competition (Steamunity: Design for Humanity) and created a cool circuit to improve two-way communication between elderly residents and their visitors! It builds on the doorbell system to help alert elderlies that suffer from hearing disabilities. Check out the repo: github.com/DakshRocks21/Steamunity
Can't post this without acknowledging my fellow no-lifer @dak5h who has been a blast to work with throughout, huge credits to him for making this with me.
And below is a picture of the stuff in action. It's just circuits for now, but our team's gonna 3D model some cool stuff to make the entire setup look good.
