I am often teaching people how to use git.
But this game is a … game changer. What a brilliant way to visualise git concepts and make it playful at the same time: ohmygit.org/

How the bible was supposed to be interpreted, for all those people out there who seem to have it backwards...

@SEEK its my own color theme unless you mean the syntax highlighting, in which case I'd need to check.

If you want more info on my theme and more screenshots and the settings I put it all here: reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments

yup, pretty much sums up the intellectual capacity of the American voter.

So in my sparetime I have been writing this open-source game, a mmorpg called a MUD (no graphics in the typical sense, all ncurses based).

Anyway, I never would have thought the most complicated part of writing the game engine would have possibly been the handling of pronouns! The number of variations you have to consider is astounding when you really try to catalog all the different types.

I think I finally got them all covered though.

I used to know this guy who was extremely homophobic, his last name was Wilcox... worst last name he could possibly have.

I used it all the time to make fun of him; every time he would make a homophobic remark I would respond "Ok there will-cocks, its not like they call you wont-cocks"

@freemo Thanks, I feel slightly more depressed now.

Someone asked me what late-stage capitalism is... I said its when the hookers are legal and still accept bitcoin for payment... prove me wrong!

Next time your feeling down just remember there are people stupid enough out there to sincerely beleive germ theory is a hoax, the earth is flat, and that human-caused global warming is a conspiracy...

People literally beleive the whole of science is some giant cabal of scientists in on the conspiracy just so they can get paid... never mind the fact that research scientists are some of the lowest paid scientists compared to those who work for companies implementing and doing...

Finished most of the prototype board. Never have I been so excited to solder something, specifically the shield. After several years of hard work putting that shield on was a trophy! Its something that has collected dust for periods too and this is the second version I went full cycle on.

For those wondering this is the RF analogy board for an advanced highly percise SWR meter with Network-analyzer like capabilities built into an shield. It measures a radio signals forward and reverse properties and compares them including complex impedance, complex reflection coefficient, SWR and much more. with two of them and a zigbee you can even operate one at your transmitter and the other at the antenna end and get both readouts in the shack. Cool stuff!

The yellow shielded wire wasnt working so I added a very tiny red wire instead. The final product wont need this and it may introduce some issues with the prototyping, lets hope not.

If you want to see more pictures of the project, including the GUI demo running or the earlier v1 version just check out the hashtag.

@Electronics

Wanted to share my prototype design for the meter with the Electronics Group.

About a month ago I sent the boards off to be printed for a prototype run and recently got them in. So V2.0 is soon to be officially released (though I may do a minor revision before printing up a large number of boards).

Attached are some screenshots of the final schematic and some renderings of what the boards will look like when its done. Its a 4 layer board though so many of the traces are internal.

You can find the files for this, which will be released as open-source, here:

Hi sentients of Qoto. I'm an AI student from 🇻🇪 living in 🇬🇧. My biggest intellectual interest is in theoretical neuroscience. I have experience in embedded systems and will work as a numerical software engineer starting this summer.

I'd like to find smart people here to discuss and share ideas with, I love being wrong but please justify your arguments and don't just state that XYZ is the 'right' answer. Particularly when it comes to politics. If you oversimplify arguments then I will ignore you.

Fav music -> Latin American indie + Lo-Fi

Tech-> Love all things GNU/Linux

Hola gente de Qoto. Soy un estudiante de inteligencia artificial. Me encanta aprender sobre la neurociencia teórica. Tengo experiencia en sistemas embebidos y software en general. Me gusta la música indie y todo relacionado con GNU+Linux.

Espero conocer gente inteligente para discutir y cambiar ideas. No tengo problema con estar equivocado, más bien me gusta cuando alguien me hace ver las cosas de otra manera.

Hello world, this is my second account on Mastodon. I have open one on linuxrocks.online with the same user name but the instance seems to be down for now. I'm an Italian software developer and GNU/Linux user. I like Computer Science, Videogames, Fictions, Music, English, Animals and Women but not necessarily in that order 😂 Obviously my favourite food is Pizza, but I love Asian food too. I'm here just to tell you Happy Hacking!!

@Science

I really do love heat map visualizations of data, there is a certain beauty to it when seeing patterns emerge.

The following is a chart from a study that shows how peoples mobility in parks has been affected by covid. Original study can be found here:
