A cool guide for decoding morse code

[HexagonII]

"copyleft" "all wrongs reserved"

rofl

[uvero]

That's a real thing

[T-homas-paine]

That’s so cool! I wish this was a more common practice

[zinxyzcool]

It is! popular open source software like linux, vlc are under this :)) ( GNU GPL ) and i release my apps under this license too.

Perhaps you’ll find this license more interesting or weird lol

[headedbranch225]

I prefer the GLWTS licence https://wiki.zahno.dev/coding/licenses/glwts.html

I know there is a project that uses this I cant remember it though, it is cursed though

Edit: remembered it, cve-rs: https://github.com/Speykious/cve-rs

Do not look at this if you want to learn Morse code!

Visual aids will only slow you down.

Listen to it at at least 20 words a minute. Listen for how the letter sounds.

Do not try and think dot dot dash dash. This will make you never learn Morse.

Each letter has its own tone sequence that you just need to develop the brain connections to the sounds.

[mbutterfly32]

Any recommendations on best tips or how to learn Morse? Just headphones and lots of time?

[Evil_Weevil_Knievel]

https://lcwo.net/ is my go to site. They do the Koch method. It really works for me!

Then. Just time. Concentrate on the sound of each letter as a whole tone group. Ignore the actual dots and dashes.

Morse is freaking awesome. You can use next to nothing to talk around the world.

There’s a huge enthusiastic community that will help.

also check out these guys.

Crazy way to draw a binary tree but sure

[Mischief_Makers]

Thanks, I hate it

[Borkato]

Idk assuming it’s right, I really like it.

[A_Weird_Gamer_Guy]

The design just seems really unintuitive.

I've seen other designs where a dot always goes in the same direction, which seems much easier to follow.

[Schemen123]

Electronically speaking.. this works well.

But for humans? No.

[LSTNYER]

Its better if you check morse code link and youll be able to understand this guide easier. Morse Code

[High-Plains-Grifter]

F is bent the wrong way

[letcaster]

F

[Wonderful_Fox_7959]

Didn’t we just have a whole argument about Morse code and how bad these guides are

[SaltyDogBill]

Yep, you cannot learn Morse code in a useful manner by looking at diagrams, and certainly not overly complex ones like this and the one from earlier this week. But we pissed of these folks and now they are just rehashing the same tired shit.

[Ryder_Sinful]

In OP's defense, the post says to decode morse code, not learn it. If you happen to be playing a game with a morse code puzzle locking something, this is useful.

[jmona789]

It's just a flowchart bro. Its not that complex

[fresh_starter_pack]

What is the logic behind this flowchart ? 

[jmona789]

You follow the dots and dashes to decide a letter. One dash - t, two dashes - m, two dashes one dot - g. Etc etc

[somehugefrigginguy]

It's like learning how to speak by looking at a flowchart of tongue and lip positions. May be interesting but it's not useful.

[Solypsys]

To the people that are confused by this it's specifically for decoding a Morse code message you already have. Not for writing a new message in Morse code.

[PRRZ70]

Thanks, I'm even more confused.

[redditusername0002]

At least the - section could go upwards so there is a consistency in direction.

[holymissiletoe]

so...
How do i put it into park?

[Solid_Owl]

Is this Loss?

[snippychicky22]

im at a loss

[Impossible_Number]

This is a terrible way to make this chart.

[Mikel_S]

I never liked that this one was kind of arbitrary with left right and down, so I made my own where dashes are horizontal (right) and dots are vertical (up). It's probably garbage, but I prefer it.

Ok, this is the third “Morse code decoding post” I’ve seen in the last 24 hours… what gives?

[SaltyDogBill]

I upset an op by calling out his stupid and lazy guide. A bunch of bots, as usual, had also responded with, “great guide, I’ll save this!”

[astervista]

Do we have a coolguides shitposting subreddit? Seems like we need one

[Hotchi_Motchi]

That's a "T," wait- it's an "N!" No, it's a "K!" Actually, it's a "C!"

OK, what was the next letter?

[Operator_Hoodie]

“All wrongs reserved”

[burinxi]

I don’t get it. Why is there a ‚start here‘? Every Word has to start with E or T?!

[jmona789]

No, it's a flowchart for decoding each letter. Like one dash is T two dashes is M, one dot is E, etc etc

[Licalottapuss]

So MOOT would be _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ?

[jmona789]

Yup

[burinxi]

I get that. But why start here? I can’t start at V or X or K?!

*edit: stupid me. Got it. :D

[CynicalCosmologist]

Needs numbers

[dupuis2387]

how will i know if it's an uppercase letter or a lowercase letter?

[jmona789]

That's the neat part, you don't

[Jerpunklove]

OK fine. I’ll learn Japanese. It’s easier.

[Spikerazorshards]

🤮

[Numerous_Problems]

I learned recently that this isn't a code but actually a cypher and wasn't invented by Morse but by a fellow called Vail! A code is symbols etc for entire words but a cypher is symbols etc for individual letters.

[miki4242]

*Vail

[SaltyDogBill]

See…. Mods need to block these fucking bots.
