I wrote some code! It renders frames to a virtual canvas and then distributes packets over WiFi to ESP32 modules that receive them to make up a larger display. So you could make a jumbotron out of a bunch of ESP32s and one PC. Code can be found on... show more

I'm working on a project that uses an ESP32 as well. Are you using Arduino IDE or the Visual Micro extension for Visual Studio? I started with the former. But once I discovered the latter I switched and haven't looked back.

Dave W Plummer1 year ago

I'm using PlatformIO in VSCode, which is great! I recommend it!

Darren woods1 year ago

Why a bunch of esp32's , could you not just use one ?

Dave W Plummer1 year ago

An ESP32 can run about 3 panels, but not much more. And there are cases where they're not physically connected, so it's also good for that!

I was really confused for o moment, trying to determine how you powered the IMSAI from those bottles of various cleaners…

You can just tell Claude Code to learn skills and it will. I asked Claude to create an app that uses tldraw and it one shotted it with sqlite db, and then I asked Claude Code to create a skill so that it could read and write on the canvas. 10 minutes later it could do it. Weirrrrdddd times.

AI is changing the software engineering craft. Anders Hejlsberg (Anders Hejlsberg) - creator of C#, TypeScript and industry legend - on why code review needs to get more enjoyable in response: #1 - AI is shifting the craft from writing code, to reviewing code: "In a sense, we're all turning into project managers. We can have an army of junior programmers, called agents, that will just spit out reams of code but someone's got to have the big picture and review all of that. And so, increasingly, our craft is going from one of writing the code, to one of reviewing the code and building the architecture of the code and overseeing the work. It's a different kind of craft. It's a different kind of enjoyment. I've always liked writing the code. To me that was the fulfilling part, seeing it work. In a way, AI robs a little bit of that, because I am less interested in reviewing code." #2 - The code review experience should be improved: "I think we could also make the process of reviewing code much more interesting than it is today. I mean, today, you see a list of diffs in alphabetical order and now it's up to you to make heads or tails of it. There are more pedagogical ways of presenting that. And you could have commentary generated by the AI that tells you what the changes are and whatever, and then tries to guide you along. So that symbiotic relationship, I think we need to work on that more and to keep the enjoyment in there."

This is why you need to have a secret family code word. Put away all electronics and go to a secure room and discuss what that code word will be. Make sure everyone knows they cannot tell it to literally anyone. If you get one of these calls and they don’t know the word, you can hang up and be worry-free.

"The one thing that's going to be truly future proof is judgment. What is the biggest challenge when you have a thousand AI engineers writing code? AI slop. In an era when you can do everything, the question is which of these things matter. On the engineer side, it is evaluating the code. Which of this code is even valuable? You can have AI engineers writing beautiful code that could be wrong, that could have bugs in it, that could be vulnerable. Someone needs to review it. Make sure to have a human review at some point, especially critical code that is in the core of your system. On the product side is judgment around what needs to be built and evaluating. And similarly in design, you have to have judgment around, does it make sense in the broader design system. I think this judgment is the number one thing that humans are going to bring in an era of infinite productivity."

Tomorrow, I’m going to break a very large story with a piece of evidence that I just found out about after midnight tonight. The piece of evidence I found is THE biggest piece of evidence I was given tonight is going to make some of you laugh, make some of you scared, make some of you blink and go speechless, and many other things. It will be after I get out of church.. With this story will come apologies to people who are owed an apology, and I will sincerely mean that. To the ones who called me a liar, who knew the truth and covered it up, and who took part in it - your nightmare has only begun, as I plan on naming you, and taking every legal action I can against you.

For those of you tired of yet another AI-based IDE: Check out Traycer. It's a Visual Studio Code extension (free forever for anyone working on open-source repositories), and it does something different from everyone else. You write a high-level prompt outlining the changes you want to make to your codebase, and the extension generates a plan for you before you touch the code. (It reminds me of GitHub Copilot Workspaces.) You can review the plan, understand exactly the changes the extension will make to your code, and make any modifications. When you are ready, you execute the plan, and Traycer stages all of the changes so you have a new opportunity to review everything. Only then does Traycer apply the changes. This is ideal for large codebases where you'd rather study the changes the AI plans to make before they make it into your code. Look at the video I recorded to see how it works. Thanks to the Traycer team for collaborating with me on this post!

New short course: Collaborative Writing and Coding with OpenAI Canvas! Explore new ways to write and code with OpenAI Canvas, a user-friendly interface that allows you to brainstorm, draft, and refine text and code in collaboration with ChatGPT. In the short course, created with OpenAI, and taught by , a research lead at OpenAI, you’ll learn to use Canvas to enhance your workflows. Canvas lets you go beyond simple chat interactions. It provides a side-by-side workspace where you and ChatGPT can edit and refine text or code collaboratively. This makes brainstorming, drafting, and iterating as you write feel more natural and effective. As the first major update to ChatGPT’s visual interface since its launch in 2022, Canvas gives a new, innovative approach to collaboration with AI. For instance, after writing the first version of your code, Canvas can review it and give suggestions for improvement. It can also help with debugging by adding logging, identifying problems to fix, and writing comments. In addition, you'll also learn what it takes to train the model for an interface like Canvas. In this video-only short course, you’ll: - Learn how to ask for in-line feedback and control the iteration of your work by directly editing selected areas of your text or code from the model’s output. - Learn how to access quick automation tools in a shortcut menu that allows you to modify your writing tone and length, enhance your code, and restore previous versions of your work. - Learn how to use Canvas as a research assistant tool with an example of asking the model to reason through the screenshot of a plot to write a research report, in which you can ask questions within the created report. - Ask the model to write Python code to replicate the graph seen on a screenshot image. - Go behind the scenes of how you can create a video game, such as Space Battleship, from scratch, edit it, and display it in one self-contained HTML file. - Get a real-world application example of creating a SQL database from the image of its architecture. - Understand the model training and design processes that power Canvas!

Anyone out there. How cool would that be? And even if you don't want to do it, maybe you have a son or daughter who wants to do that or a friend who wants to do it. And I think it would be the best adventure that one could possibly do is to go and help build a new civilization on a new planet.” From: SpaceX Update, May 29, 2025

Try out Gemini Code: a coding assistant in your terminal powered by Gemini 2.5 Pro. 💜 💜 Release Notes: → It's easy to get started, just run `pip install gemini-code` in a virtual environment, and then run `gemini` to initialize it. It requires your own API key, so don't forget to get one from → I built this because I love Claude Code and wanted a similar experience -- I like that I can just use my own API key and Gemini is generally way cheaper as well. → Found a bug? Feel free to fork the code and fix it (lol)! If you want to try to improve it, please do so - repo is public! → Reminder and a disclaimer that I don't work at Google and this is not an official Google project - just a weekend side hack → It is highly likely you'll get throttled by rate limits - I put as much info as I can in the guide so you know what behavior to expect when that happens. You can also set which default model to use if you want to switch to 1.5 Pro.

Been using Paper MCP with Claude Code today and I’m kind of blown away! I tested importing Figma designs, then iterating on them using live Supabase data (via MCP). It genuinely feels like a glimpse of where design is heading. would love Paper to add something like agentation from Benji Taylor, so Claude Code can target frames and layers directly.
