So @SkycardsHQ #skycards is down, @flightradar24? Not loading past the loading screen anymore. Tried the app update, didn't help.

Remember when we use to close all the Google tabs when you finally solved a coding problem? Now we close ChatGPT tabs...

It's been a minute or 2, but check out the first custom PCB I've designed for my SLAMBOT project. PCB printing sponsored by @PCBWayOfficial

Excuse the low resolution, but my #SLAM edge detection algorithm is coming along nicely (the grey and blue dots) overlayed on 2 different scans. The trick will be to ensure I have enough of the same edges detected in multiple scans to compare for pose estimation.

I wish @CommBank, or any bank for that matter, had conditional automated transactions. Eg. If at the end of the month I have x dollars in an account then transfer y dollars to savings. Smart Savings is close to what I need, but not quite there.

Another day, another flying attempt. One good flight in, one undercarriage mount folding incident that needed a couple of cable ties to fix, and its nose fell off. No broken props though!

I'm loving @autodesk Fusion 360 (Personal) so far! @openscad was great as a beginner, but Fusion is taking it to the next level.

Sometimes in life you'll make a mistake, and that's ok. Just make sure you always keep a couple of shims handy.

Kicking of 2025 strong by stocking up on books for my personal career development. There's only so much ChatGPT can teach you, sometimes you need to read a book or three instead.

I don't know what happened behind the scenes, but I still think if @Polywork hadn't pivoted to an AI-first model then there might have still been a chance for them.
