Someone put Snake on a seven-segment display pulled from an old DVD player. The double bars between digits mean you can't turn toward food on the other bar. You have to loop all the way around. Nobody designed that rule. The display did. 🐍 #Arduino #Maker

My fortune-telling fish prints fortunes written by AI. All 529,200 of them. Statistically, some of the least valuable sentences ever written. People kept them anyway. They weren't keeping the words. They were keeping the moment. 🐟 #AI #Maker

IT'S WEDNESDAY! Time for HumpDay Q&A! You'll pay for the whole seat but you'll only use the edge of it!

Excited to be back! Hop on to hang out!

Thanks so much to everyone who cam to my talk. It was so much fun!

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at @FlutterconWorld Europe! My presentation is about learning Embedded Flutter through a fortune telling fish!

HUMP DAY HUMP DAY HUMP DAY!!!

Guess who's back? See everyone soon!!!

Over the past ten months I've been building a fortune telling machine inspired by my childhood love of Zoltar. It asks you 3 questions and provides you a customized fortune based on your answers! - youtube.com/watch?v=CovVmPns…

Excited to join today!

Check out what I'm bringing to @flutterconworld USA! Captain Reef can't wait to reveal your destiny! This kiosk is powered by Flutter, Flame, and a Raspberry Pi. Want to learn more? Come to my talk... "Bare Metal Flutter" happening Thursday @ 10AM! #flutter #embedded

"Keep going" is bad advice. It doesn't tell you what to keep going on. He quit the valve approach, the pump approach, the ring architecture. He never quit the goal. Those are not the same thing. youtube.com/shorts/TsFUO6oTN… #Makers #DIY #MakerCommunity #Making #ProjectLife

FieldStation 42 doesn't recreate the nostalgia. It recreates the room. And a room full of people doesn't happen by accident. It happens because someone designed for it. youtube.com/shorts/jvqZ_O8I8… #RaspberryPi #OpenSource #DIY #Makers #MakerCommunity

I solved the same CNC problem twice because I never wrote it down. Your AI assistant is only as useful as the context you give it. Documentation is the most valuable tool in the shop. youtube.com/shorts/Buy1Az9E1… #Workshop #Arduino #DIY #Makers #MakerCommunity

The nail polish on the keyboard is not a detail. It's the thesis. And the industry is going to sand it off trying to sell it back to you. Don't let them. youtube.com/shorts/RZRZFei4y… #Cyberdeck #RaspberryPi #DIY #Makers #MakerCommunity

The flaw doesn't exist as knowable information until you build the thing that breaks. Version 1 isn't a failure. It's the only instrument capable of generating what you need to know. youtube.com/shorts/vyvkDrZPG… #Robotics #Engineering #DIY #Makers #MakerCommunity

153 versions of the same Fusion 360 shape. Not because she was bad at building. Because she hadn't needed it badly enough yet. The project is the curriculum. youtube.com/shorts/39KnFHQOp… #Fusion360 #3DPrinting #DIY #Makers #MakerCommunity
