Very interesting! Seems like it needs a reasonably large number of events (votes?) for the statistics to be effective. How do you see that playing out in real systems?


Agree with the sentiment, disagree that PDF is the way to go!


I think about the alternate timeline where Aaron Swartz is still around more than any other.


"New contributors" in the changelog is a nice touch.


Maniac (Netflix) nailed the retro-techno-cool vibe for me.


"The War in the Dark" by Nick Setchfield scratched a similar itch to "Declare" for me. (There's a sequel too, but I've not read it).


In case anyone else is thinking about picking up the Broken Earth trilogy, I'll offer another opinion. The Fifth Season still stands out to me as one of the best sff novels I've read in many years and I recommend it wholeheartedly. I remember feeling sorry for authors who had novels published the same year, because The Fifth Season was so obviously going to sweep the awards (on merit). Had a similar reaction to R F Kuang's Babel, but different outcome there, obviously.


Ok fine... these replies are making me feel like I should read some more NK Jimison. Broken Earth did not land for me at all, but I hear all the enthusiasm and I'll keep an open mind.


https://www.brachiograph.art/ explores the low end of cheap experimentation with pen plotting. It's a really charming project.


This looks like the logical next step after building a brachiograph!

Awesome project! Newer SG90 are described as a digital servo: http://www.towerpro.com.tw/product/sg90-7/ Should the older analog version (or perhaps a different part entirely?) be used for brachiograph? There's a note in the docs about analog servos being more suitable for this application.
