@Kieran1made some chick pea pasta leftovers more exciting; share your food adventrues / lunch in #food!
@sahitid0:forsyth-hacks-label:forsyth hacks (#forsyth-hacks) happened on November 18th, 2023 and was an overall success! at a point we had around 60 attendees and overall had an amazing time with our theme ⚡ (electricity) as well as workshops ranging from @ajs2’s jams to a mini UI design competition. and finally, the hours of food, coding, new friends, and projects (everything from a storm tracker app to a platformer game made w flow!)
personal highlights of the event for me was probably the conversations i had with new people :heart_hands: the whole day, the chance to mentor a group into creating their entire project - from not having an idea, to developing and shipping it 🚢, lightning talks during lunch (like the one about jamstack by @davidm) 🎤, presenting an APIs workshop :postman:, the amazing swag we were able to handout (including string bags, polaroids :tw_camera_with_flash:, & stickers), and of course the presentations at the end!
i want to give a huge thank you and shoutout to the following:
• @ChristianDutton-U04E0LL16MA right hand man all the way and helped make my website design a lovely reality. (can't wait for 3.0)
• @RyanDu-U04QM0MH6TV for the fresh new perspective and ideas for the event & an awesome workshop on how to not make crappy UI design (as well as the mini:figma:competition afterward)
• dj! for the most amazing design and logo for the event :forsyth-hacks-2-bulb:. (or "sick sticker" as sam poder himself deemed worthy)
• everyone who attended! we had over triple the amount of projects than last year and over 80 registered by the day of!
• and ofc everyone at hack club :hackclub-party: who cheered me on all the way (and :bank-hackclub-dark: ofc hcb grant- this event would not have been possible without this :money-printer:, and from the bottom of my heart i am very grateful :blobheart: ).
◦ i had an amazing conversation with @theamazing0 in the middle of the day about how special hack club was to me and how he's in the process of discovering this love for the community as i did a year ago.
▪︎ this spread of love would not be possible if not for the support of more hackathons and more clubs around the world!

@Captain-A.J.0Winter Hardware Wonderland Day 1 :winter-hardware-wonderland: #hardware-party
A.L.F.R.E.D ButlerBot (PR here: github.com/hackclub/winter/blob/main/Captain-AJ.md)
Welcome all to the start of a great adventure! I hope everyone is making great progress on their projects. Personally, I have started building my
Autonomous food delivery bot: A.L.F.R.E.D. Which stands for Advanced, Little, Fit, Robot, Education, Device. Today I've just about finished the wheels of my robot, I had some trouble with the suspension due to screw tightness, but all is fixed now! Tomorrow I plan to make a basic
remote-controlled robot for testing. I am currently learning about Arduino hardware and software and will start learning C and C++. That's all for now!
@kaidevrim0Day 9/10 of #10-days-in-public!!!! Getting my food handler card for my job at McDonald!!! Make sure to make clean food yalll. I also am just super tired after doing a full day of activities at my senior picnic today. Will be going camping tomorrow!!!
@kayley0Day 1 of #10-days-in-public was Monday! How my course schedule is scheduled is basically I have the entirety of Monday free, so it's like a three day weekend for me. It's mostly a half day of studying, with a half day of me doing anything that constitutes as self care for the other half, including dragging my sorry self to the gym for swimming and going downtown to get some food.
Don't have any photos of homework to share, so enjoy more photos of fall on campus, a tree on fire, a copy of crazy rich asians I bought at the local used bookstore (which I would like to point out has an incredibly cute Havanese named daisy), had to do some official busines for the college, dinner, questionable butterfly form, as well as the book elevator that I learned about today when I needed to go into the South Stacks to look for a book — pretty good day overall.
