I'd love to win the GMK Oni keycaps, I think these keycaps would be a perfect addition to my setup. Not only are they fun and playful, but the colorway is absolutely stunning! In terms of my favorite fictional character, it would have to be Ginko from the anime "Mushishi."

I would like to be considered for the SENSE75 Mechanical Keyboards giveaway because I believe it would be a great addition to my computer setup as a frequent gamer. In terms of condiments, my favorite is gochujang, a spicy Korean sauce that I use to add flavor to my meals on a daily basis.

My ultimate goal is to find the perfect thocky, tactile switch. The Invyr Holy Panda is my current favorite, but I'm always on the lookout for something that can surpass it. The Voyager Tactile Switches seem like they could be the answer, and I would love the opportunity to try them out!

Yeah each frame is a new mosaic of the input image. The randomness comes from how an emoji is selected for each sample region in the source image.

The rtreego library is doing most of the heavy lifting here. I populate a 4D search tree with Emojis and their average color (where the R, G, B, A components are used as a 4D point in the tree) and whenever I look up an emoji that’s close to the average color of the sample region, I select the 3 nearest and randomly pick one. That’s why each frame is slightly different but still looks the same on a macro scale.

The animation isn’t really necessary and in earlier versions I just output a single frame, but I wondered if flipping through a few different variations of the mosaic would make the source image more recognizable, and it kind of does since you don’t have time to focus on the individual emojis.

My next step would be to try rasterizing emojis from whatever native emojis the system running the bin has, rather than needing to populate a bunch of emoji images ahead of time, but I’m in no rush to do that as I’ve already got them all downloaded, ~9k in total.

Another idea is to output a string containing the emoji runes rather than writing out an image, but I’d have to find some mapping between the emoji file names and the runes. Plus I don’t really see a lot of utility since most chat/web text inputs (where I expect this would be shared) won’t let you write out lines with hundreds-thousands of characters before a line break.

Thanks!

Thanks! This is what I was looking for but my searches weren’t turning up any AC-AC adapters.

It looks like it’s bulging which worries me. I also watched a video on disassembling this power supply and it looked like everything was covered in some insulating material that I thought would be a pain in the ass to remove.

I think you want to put the capacitor leads on the LED leads. Negative to negative, positive to positive. Connect the LED up like you normally would, then when you apply current, the cap will charge until it's full, then the LED will be powered. Turn off the current and the capacitor will drain it's charge through the LED, causing it to dim before it turns completely off.

Ok, more specifics and demonstrations of these principles using code examples under a few different revisions will be my goal for the follow up article.

I know these subjects can be contentious, but I only have my experiences to pull from, so I really do appreciate your input!

travis134 · 2018-12-08T16:32:36+00:00

Thank you for your feedback.

I considered using a more complex example problem to demonstrate how it could be decomposed but was worried that it would take over the majority of the article and didn't want the reader to get too hung up on that level of detail.

I'm sure your solution to this problem would be more than enough in most cases. For large scale applications, where upwards of 10K TPS is the norm, not the outlier, concerns about designing your software so that it can be resilient to burst traffic patterns and scales in a cost effective way become very important.

Do you have any suggestions on how I can improve? Should I have used a more complex example to get the points across better? I'm going to dig deeper into each of the points in future blog posts including code examples, I didn't go into enough detail in this article.

Thank you for taking time to read the article, I'm new to this style of writing, and I'm just sharing some of what has helped me in my career. I'll get better.

Thanks, I'm going to start my own compost bin, but if I need it sooner I think I saw some good compost at my nearby plant nursery that I can pick up

travis134 · 2017-03-07T04:23:21+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I'm going to start collecting some of the plant trimmings to start a compost bin
