@Kaplin867+Day 139 / 365
What is up fellas. its me. kaplin. Back with another scrapbook post. Today was interesting. So my day started out by not having internet from some random internet shortage. Because of this, I wasnt fully certain hackatime would track (it would have), but i didnt want to take the risk so I held off coding. I instead played two peak downloaded offline fangames: PVZ fusion and pokemon infinite fusion. Kinda funny how both are fusion themed. I started a new save for the pokemon one. I also attached image of my team if anyones curious :) Anyways once the internet came back I got to the coding grind. I added a lot more polish to the game. i added a cool effect for when the players load, made the sky background have a zoom-like effect on load, made the players bob up and down, and I also made it so the other players are color modulated to fit their current aquired followers. But my most important addition was doing cool math stuff to effectively make a cinematic camera generator. I pass in a player position, it calculates face position, and gets a random location based on set angles and a distance. Im going to be using this at the start of a turn, and probably add some cool text that says "Player ??? Turn XYZ". Then it shows them roll the dice and which cards they use. But for now its just moving the camera to cool places. Had to learn a bit on how transform3ds work in godot. I still dont fully understand, but im getting there!!!
On a side note, I did some baking. Found a recipe for some low carb pancakes or something and it looked interesting. It was just eggs + cream cheese lol. Turns out i suck at flipping pancakes so it ended up all mushed lol.
๐ฎ@tacy0day 49 of 50 days to 2026!
wow this is almost finished! I ended up taking a longggg break over the last few days as I recovered from being quite sick. I didn't do much in the way of new projects during those days so we are essentially up to date.
Today I implemented a backup system with restic that allows me to store incremental snapshots of my app's data and saves it all encrypted to backblaze b2! It is a pretty nice workflow for me since I hooked it into my services declaration in my nix config.
As a result of implementing that backup system I also went ahead and redid the analytics system for cachet as the db has grown to be just about a gigabyte in size (for sqlite that is massive). It is significantly faster now with a bucketing algorithm like l4 which allows the dashboard to be insanely quick and also allows progressive zoom! I also started tracking the Referer header to see where traffic is coming from since most of the traffic doesn't use a custom user agent.
@ajhalili20060DAY 40/50 (2025-12-21):

โข also joined the vibecoding debate organized by @eps on Zoom (thanks btw) as audience
๐๏ธ@n0o0b090lv0DAY 19/:50days::
โข Was on zoom about runnning campfire ;))
โข Was on slack huddle in #C09EZSEMB16|
โข #C09BE8QF1V5| 53/60

4. ive also realised i havent been coding as much as i'd like too because ive been pretty busy w athena and studying for a-levels. i feel kinda bad about it sob lol, ill try to get back on my zoom after athena, trust
๐@BetterClient0Today I made a web UI for my project and shipped it! <https://betterclient.github.io/z--/|demo >
@CyrilLi0Today I have made a playable version of bingguessr, a geoguessr-like game with Bing Streetside imagery and A-Frame & Maptalks for rendering.
WASD to move, "-" and "=" to zoom, "m" to switch between 3D and map views, Space to submit your guess, map moves to your mouse location after clicking
cyrilsli.hackclub.app/bingguessr.html
๐๐ฎ@blobblobbing0Fixed some bugs, added zoom in / out mechanics, worked a little bit on UI and started learning about wingdi control windows (text boxes, buttons)
@Hashim0I made my first open source contribution today!
The hackclub map here which is embed in multiple pages like toolbox has some problems. First it doesn't has a max-zoom out limit so users can zoom out as much as they want causing this:(1st image). Also it doesn't has translations for names of places written in local languages.(2nd image)
So I added a max-zoom out limit and also used a Tile Layer that has translations for these local scriptures.(3rd image)
This is the pull-request, hope so It gets accepted!
wish me luck :)
@IshikaKumar0Iโve conquered my burnout. back on my zoom fr.

@Aaryan0Created a zoom clone! Made this to learn react and nextjs to eventually migrate my own project over and was following this great tutorial: www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8CIO1DZ2b8 Overall, a great intro to next js especially learning about useState and useEffects. For sure migrating my svelte site over to react for more reactivity. Also learnt how to use this great video and audio messaging service and Clerk auth. Really amazing tutorial and I recommended anyone trying to get into react and next js to make this! github.com/Aaryan-N/Zoom_Clone

@ShreyasDeo0I coded an optimized visualizer for the Mandelbrot set using Python, which allows people to move, zoom and change the resolution of the plot. I have open sourced all my code on GitHub. github.com/deoshreyas/Mandelbrot-Set-Visualiser@Nikhil0#hack-hour fixed some bugs with the camera to make it zoom out as the player go farther apart.
๐@Yugraj0#hack-hour Sadly no textures or anything yet, camera was worked on and zoom is a thing!
@SophiaPung0Weโre finally able to share the high level schematic for the board (we have many more lower levels to the schematic hierarchy)!! A huge shoutout to our team @jc@HenryBass-U02KEJ8T6D8@Cheru, and @NilaRam for ALL the hard work we put in this week!!:index_pointing_at_the_viewer: ๐ฅ
Also a huge shoutout to everyone who helped us, fed us, and housed us (@ThomasStubblefield + @ImDeet-U045B4BQ2T0) this week. Thank you to @KaraMassie and @msw for coordinating with us, and helping us through the logistics for this project. Thanks @NickyCase, @malted, @kognise, @belle, @karina) for hanging out with us this week, and keeping our spirits high. Next sprint we plan to write a programmable multilayer convolution layer NN using wavelet transforms. Stay tuned for our progress next sprint (December 26th-1st), and come to our demo day on New Yearโs day if youโre around (or tune in via zoom). Thanks everyone who joined and participated in this channel, and follow our Twitter so see the memes we post from the week (OpenAI board memes, touching grass, team sink + more๐). 3-2-1 MMI!!!!!!!
@Keevan0So excited, just applied to the hack club Winter Hardware Wonderland grant!! I'm planning on making an auto webcam movement tracker for zoom calls. Should be a fun project!

@belle0it takes screenshots!!! the next step is to try and find a better object detection model so that it can recognise people (and phones) from far away or find a way to programatically zoom in on people. also, figure out a way to get this hooked up to a camera (and maybe raspberry pi) so that it can run :)
day 7 of #10-days-in-public
@rajanagarwal0today was incredibly chaotic, but incredibly productive?? anyways yeah got to work on a website (yes ik I've shown multiple variations of a site for the same organization but I realized I (a) needed something markdown based (b) zoom zoom fast and (c) easily editable by the rest of the team). also made big big progress on digital garden oop
@courtney0Found some spooky spiders todayโฆdon't you love the ability to zoom?
๐ธ@hsh0Today we did the third edition of APAC leaders call ๐
I love how we came up as a community and took a step to share ideas and updates and tried to know each other better.
So many new leads joined and they fell in love with the community and the hacker culture we have!
I love how our community is shaping up ๐
@ian0Using Python + Node.js to automate keyboard shortcuts on Windows - I'm hoping to use this in Zoom meetings and have a physical button for muting/unmuting.
@Agrim0Made a Physical button for Zoom and MS teams Mic using Raspberry pi Pico and Circuit python. My first build using Pico and Circuit python
@carrot0I finally fixed my homebrew CPU's memory access "bug." It wasn't a bug at all. Here's a short demo of 4 programs running on it via the UART bootloader! Also, I wanted to experiment with showing both the hardware and software at the same time (decided to use Zoom for that).๐@aaryan0Yeah been on sooo many zoom meetings this week (we don't use zoom for school), also I realized how much netflix I've been watching :angrycry: . I've been learning React again these days and brushing up on my ML theory!
๐@JuanGonzalez0i got tired of having to go through my school email/schoology and search for what link we're using for zoom so I am making a bot
๐๐ค@msw0now if you start a meeting with /z you'll get a host key you can use to make yourself the host of the call (without having your name set to "Hack Club" like the golden key does)@riley33chou0did @faydโs konami code workshop to hide my zoom links! (unfortunately had to take out the confetti because links dont work on a canvas)
