GitHub's search is a great resource for software development. Being able to search an obscure function implementation and see 100s of examples in code is immensely helpful. I've be…

A little free library style box, but not free and not a library ( https://thingio.dev ) I've got an LTE module connected to a solenoid lock. The module listens for a "checkout comp…

When starting a new hardware design, I often find myself pulling up familiar boards (like Adafruit or Sparkfun's dev boards) almost as often as the chip's application note. A full …

Thanks! 100% agree. It's the "board that works" part that might be tricky with open source designs.

I'm working on cataloging open source hardware designs. When I'm starting a new hardware design, I find myself pulling up familiar boards (like Adafruit or Sparkfun's dev boards) a…

I'm building IFTT but for IoT devices. No monthly cost, just a one time deployment fee for the life of the device. A simple MQTT interface to do all sorts of things such as: - Open…

Thank you! It's been very fun to work on

https://tabbot.app I hated having to open an excel spreadsheet after dinner with friends. Snap a picture of a receipt, send them the URL, and let them claim what they ordered. OCR …

This tweet had me wondering[1], what is the goldilocks model for a lightly funded or bootstrapped hardware company in 2023? I'm thinking about purpose built gadgets such as smart h…

I'm building an tool that combines OCR and text categorization of an image. Each job accrues cost with compute time. The rest of the tool is negligible cost. The outcome is not dis…

Yeah, definitely worth looking into. I think Stripe has their Connect feature which might facilitate payments between people. Could be fun to tinker with. Thanks for the feedback!

I am thinking about doing something with it. I put up a landing page to gauge interest, but I have no idea how I would monetize. Right now it's just burning money on AWS.

I'm a credit card point junkie so I always volunteer to pay the bill at dinner or drinks. But, if everyone doesn't get roughly the same thing, it becomes a massive headache. I got …

I tend to volunteer putting my card down for big group dinners (for the points), but hate the Monday morning accounting sessions just to get paid back. I built a bot to try and hel…

Connected via LinkedIn. Excited to talk!

My sister works as a veterinarian and is experiencing some serious burnout from her current practice (a subsidiary of a larger corporation). I guess it's pretty common practice for…

Will 100% be pasting this into a coworker's Google Doc with a white font color.

I am looking for a new project, any "can't miss" open source macro pads that you have come across?

I'm working on a repository of open source hardware designs over at postdrc.com. I always like to take a pulse check on which components and configurations other people are using f…

This is very helpful feedback, thanks! My mind goes to a few places when you talk about rich annotations on boards. Something like virtual sticky notes that are tied to specific ar…
