Maybe I'm being overly critical. But it's nothing revolutionary or new, we've had Bluetooth mesh chat for a long time. In fact I vaguely remember seeing it as someone's a university masters project over 10 years ago. I'm more interested in the lo-ra mesh, but that's probably because it feels more mysterious to me, as I have little understanding of radio networks. Let's not even get started on the name (b*tch@).

But I must admit it is cool that it's open source. I'll keep a eye out for an android app

I don't get the hype around this. No one would be talking about it if it was released by someone who wasn't a billionaire

A platform to host virtual races for fundraising events. Think Race Nights from the 90s/00s. Currently working on this with my brother, as we've both been out at risk of redundancy.

Had our first event over the weekend. Now we're focusing on marketing to local social clubs, charities and school groups.

Got a long list of future features and improvements, but this is a solid MVP. Made in react with redux, Pixi.js and prisma with sqlLite for a db.

This is a surprisingly fun little game. Reminds me of the stuff I made in Flash back in the day.

I don't even want to know how long it took to make the tree layer above the boat.

Ha, yeah that's the one. Really need to find time to go to another one. Some amazing people showing off amazing things

This is so cool. Years ago I was at a maker conference and there was a tent hosting an Algorave (https://algorave.com/) which introduced me to the whole scene of live coded music. Really niche subject but very interesting.

I've recently been battling with github not having support for WebP. Seems odd for a website not to support an image format when the browser does.

I have to admit I've never tried to use web sockets without socket.io. Are they really as simple as you claim?

This list reminded me of Build-Your-Own-X (https://github.com/codecrafters-io/build-your-own-x)
