@vik0day 5 of #10-days-in-public. i felt really burnt out with my hall effect pcb so i tried some community outreach! HACKCLUB IS NOW IN THE RABBIT LABS DISCORD SERVER!!!! and i called a bunch of boba shops and starbucks all across the nation for onboard posters! thanks a lot to @zrl@HenHen@BrightLi and everyone who helped call!
@CameronKnauff02 week project to try to make Manjaro for nixOS
(idea from @zrl)
@vik0first scrapbook post! thanks so much @zrl for sending out these stickers. Planning on replacing my thinkpad, so application will have to wait
@jdogcoder0Just shipped github.com/jdogcoder/harvest-hackathon-game as part of #harvest! Currently at an semi MVP, and site will 100% crash/error if more than 2 people try to play the game, but essentially you each control a hand, and are trying to get them to link. I have yet to build this in, but you will then have to avoid obstacles for as long as possible. When this was going to tie in with Haunted House, after 30 seconds of avoiding it would redirect to the next haunted house room, but I am going to convert it so its leaderboard based. If you want to attempt, you and a friend can visit harvest-hackathon-game.vercel.app/game. It may crash if others are on, not super sure yet. More refactoring to come shortly. A HUGE thanks to @zrl and @Elliot for their help on this!@Kieran1Sticker Update! thanks to @Hunter and the @zrl for the stickers
@Lucas0Today I had a meeting with Tom Preston-Werner! Thanks Tom and @zrl for making this happen, for the time, for the opportunity, for everthing!
@ValeriiAhin-U04AQ63DBHQ0Got the SineRider posters!!! Thank you so much @zrl !!! Really happy to be a part of this community!
@malted0I've been exploring browser rendering after @zrl mentioned Ladybird, including giving it a shot in Rust.
The internals of SpiderMonkey are especially interesting; Mozilla wrote an overview of how its components work here:
firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/js/index.html
@cytronicoder0lads, we secured the pog with @zrl (much thanks to @reesericci for his blazingly-fast print screen flick; we now have this eternally fixed in the slack :sphere:)
also, to those who remembers Notify, I found a good excuse to build this in Xcode :flooshed:
@adelly130hosted an AMA session with Zach Latta today at my school’s computer science club! super glad I was able to join from home as I recovered from COVID-19. it was so cool to get to hear what it’s like to work at hack club and what exciting projects he’s working on and to chat with him a little about machine learning! thanks @zrl for the wonderful, insightful session!
@reesericci0I got my #zachtoberfest fudge! Very good - tysm @zrl
@Lucas0Day 10 of #10-days-in-public
For #10-days-in-public, I'm rebuilding my study group website. This post is more to say that my study group website is practically ready! Coming soon ship .Thanks @zrl for the event!
@matthew0day 10 of #10-days-in-public: i'm currently running a purdue hackers hack night!!! for this hack night i changed the current time to display in lightning time ⚡ i imported my own npm package for the first time ever, which felt super duper weird.
i also started working writing the explainer blog post, which is coming along nicely but i'm still not ready to share unfortunately :flooshed:
i had a lot of fun working on this. it felt so good to be put back in a creative state, and #10-days-in-public really helped. thanks for the support :hug:@zrl can i have fudge now plz
@HenryBass-U02KEJ8T6D80Log day 11:
OHHHHHHH BOYYYYYYYYY DARK WEB SERVER
Finally, finished the raspberry pi project. I was really inspired by @zrl 's site, but instead of just recreating it I decided to do something a little different with the idea of a homeade-self-hosted site. I just finished my dark web server setup. I threw some boilerplate text onto it, but the hard work is done! Definitely more interesting than than most of the things i've done before. My goals are:
• Do some backend
• Set up a encrypted chatroom (Any tips?)
• Open source it ofc
• Put some fun shit on it
here's the onion:

@matthew03 years ago today I visited Hack Club HQ & met @zrl, @lachlanjc, @yev, and @msw (not pictured) for the first time in San Francisco
@caleb0Today I had the opportunity to drive up and meet @matthewgleich + HQ (@matthew, @msw, @zrl, @christina695, @zfogg, and @lmcelroy) in person :ratscream:totally not a promo for off-brand cheez-its

i feel no remorse for pinging all of staff
@manasmw3330This is what I showcased in the #asiaconf
The self-stabilizing spoon was my Summer of Making project and now I'm shipping the version 2.0
I tried to reduce the size of the handle and also designed a custom PCB for the same.
I'll ship the final product once the 3D printed case is ready.
Thank you Hack club team and the SOM team.
Special thanks to @zrl @sampoder @roshan @annleefores.
You guys are awesome!@christina6950Really fun to run my first Clubhouse conversation about Hack Club Bank yesterday with @zrl - and Hack Clubber @tmb hopped into the conversation, which was super cool
@lachlanjc0Found this old timelapse of me designing/building hackclub.com/bank, February 19, 2019. Video courtesy @zrl 😄@manasmw3330Today, our EESA council announced our collaboration with Hack Club on our social media handles. Thank you @zrl for giving us this opportunity :upvote:
Here's our council's instagram page :instagram:instagram.com/eesakjsce?igshid=182t59oeym7k1
@muhammedraees28240Hey i am @muhammedraees2824 of KMEA Engineering college. As a part of hackclub along with @shaiquefareedhbabu. We are contributing our first project as a part of hackclub kmea, Our first UIUX ( www.figma.com/file/ygdIza8uEOWPxJV4znUERM/Untitled?node-id=0%3A1 ) for a social media site for every traveling personals who can easily find their destinations and share their experiences along with communication.
We are thanking @zrl and @hackclub for the platform they provided to us, It's a great honour to be part of the such a community. It's a pleasure to being with everyone and conveying our special thanks to @beegumfathima2314 and @antonytomrahul for your support and @riswanaea63 for your supervision.
@abbanso100It’s time to party and make your birthday as special as you are! I hope your day is fantastic, and the year ahead even better still. Happy birthday! @zrl
@akshaygautam0100I was a curious kid, too curious to handle sometimes. But my father knew that I was different than the normal bunch and so he always supported me. I used to buy toys just to disassemble those, I even used to dismantle home appliances and any hardware stuff I could find. Most people thought I'm just a destructive kid ,but my father supported me and then I learned about an equally intresting thing "coding".
My father has too less computer knowledge to understand it, and the few friends I had just didn't care. I felt Alone
But few months ago I discovered a community completely suited for me, full of people like me, full of people better than me. A place where I think I finally belong to, Hack Club.
Happy Birthday and thank you @zrl for everything you have done for everyone, you are awesome 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
@guru0Happy birthday @zrl 🎈 From having no idea about what HackClub was to falling in love with this community - this year has really been grateful. all of us from HC SKCET wanted to appreciate your great efforts :D ❤️
@e-lee-za0Happy birthday @zrl our amazing founder!! Hope you have an amazing day :D Thank you for founding this organisation that has impacted the lives of so many and brought us all together 🎈
Here’s a little something I made for you ^_^
@sampoder0zach day! happy birthday @zrl! here is the most random birthday wish ever, enjoy?@tanishq0HAPPY BIRTHDAY ZACH! @zrl:party-dinosaur: :60fps-parrot::party-dinosaur::parrotwave1::parrotwave2::parrotwave3::parrotwave4::parrotwave5::parrotwave6: 🎉
@vera0@zrl happy b day heres a music vid I made- Thanks @michael.destefanis for the inspiration@philipstudentemail0Happy Birthday Zach!!! I hope you've had a wonderful day!!! I stumbled into this club a few months ago, but love it!! Thank you so much for all the time and energy you've invested in hack club and hack clubbers! @zrl
@caleb06 months ago, I didn't know anyone my age interested in coding. While my past self didn't recognize it, I deeply needed a community of like-minded, and similarly aged, individuals. Then I discovered Hack Club, and everything changed. I was introduced to a brave new world where ability isn't confined by age, it's allowed to blossom. A world where even a high school student can, with the help of others, make truly significant contributions to the today's world. From the second I joined, I've been continually blown away by how much Hack Club has impacted me and others.
And this all started, a bunch of years ago, by one man with a vision.
Soooo... happy birthday @zrl! 🎂 You're nothing short of awesome, and I hope you have an amazing day! 🎉
@matt0Happy b-day @zrl!!@vera0@zrl your the most awesome guy I have ever met, happy b day!!! 🎉
@rjhangiani0happy happy birthday @zrl ! you are truly an inspiration and hack club has genuinely changed my life. i came across hack club at the beginning of quarantine when i barely knew how to code. i had no clue what i wanted to do and was just kinda lost. after joining hack club, i have changed so much not only with my coding skills but soft skills. i have grown as a leader and as a person and you have helped me do that. thank you so much and i hope you have an amazing day because you deserve it!
@christina6950Zach Day! 🎂 You're the best to work with and a huge inspiration. Wishing you big, crazy year!!! Happy Birthday @zrl !!!!
@aditya1rawat0Happy Birthday @zrl! You're an inspiration to everyone and the work you've done has had an impact on an international scale! I was going to type out a freestyle, but I have a math test :sad_pepe: . Have a great day!
@amogh0HAPPY BIRTHDAY ZACH!!! @zrl enjoy this scrapbook update of me wishing you happy birthday, you are incredible and i am so grateful for the two years i’ve spent here @christina6950Woo hoo! Finished the splatter paint workshop (thanks @zrl for getting me through the VSCode issues)
@sampoder0I wrote a workshop, for workshops.hackclub.com and it was the first one to get accepted!!!! WOOT WOOT!!
It's a workshop all about CSS, which learn through making an epic Scrapbook profile! if you've got some time please do check it out at: workshops.hackclub.com/scrapbook_css I love feedback!! if you use at a club please please do send me photos!!
thank you @zrl and @lachlanjc for helping make the workshop ultra epic!
@fayd0@zrl helping me fix things in my workshop :salute:
@philipstudentemail0This morning I worked on my updating account system for the debate database website me and my friend are managing. This afternoon I had an awesome meeting with @zrl about starting a Hack Club! Tonight I did some game dev and created this island!
@winston0found this t shirt today from a whileee back and decided to wear it, it was actually my first ever hackathon (and where i met @zrl + @clairebookwormand a few other hack clubbers)! we didn’t win but we made this system that detects i think breast cancer or some type of cancer, in early stages so you can get treatment before it gets worse.
@sampoder0the sun has set (quite literally now), thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who joined the Summer of Making!!! it’s hard to piece together words, so here’s a post i wrote… and the recap site I'm about to ship….
one thing I haven’t done yet is say thank you to a lot of people, so meet my thank you wall:

heres the earliest photo i could find, i’ll let your imagination go wild…
@lachlanjc0(This photo is the Bloomington HQ’s main room at the beginning of the day.) In between desk assembly & assorted fun times yesterday:
• Worked on Bank v2 product planning with the singular @msw. Came to some great new ideas for cards on Bank I’m really excited to build; essentially, virtual + physical cards for every team member, clearer transaction ownership, simpler ordering & management. Excited to work on some UI prototyping for that today
• Had a wonderful chat with @scott, who’s been working on the Bank backend recently
• Took a walk with @zrl to discuss my work recently & the DNC/RNC & news
• Checked in with @amogh on iPad project
• Shipped a set of small design improvements to Bank
• Embarked on a tale of two packages I hope you’ll discover next week(?) in #scrapbook
Then I made some salmon teriyaki with corn & green beans for dinner with @matthew that was surprisingly good!!
@lachlanjc0Last day in our temporary office today, in Bloomington:
• Ended SoM hardware grants with a wonderful PR from @sampodergithub.com/hackclub/summer-site/pull/57 & gave him feedback on our upcoming homepage by him!!
• Bank: fixed a Transparency Mode bug on the G Suite page
• Bank: reached out to someone I super admire about working on an explorative new project together
• Workshops: in preparation for the new Clubs, standardized our formatting & streamlined authoring open letters github.com/hackclub/workshops/pull/20
• Moved forward on iPad distribution project
• Unblocked @neel.redkar on serverless deployment
• Talked with @michael.destefanis to plan Bank work, @tmb about MacBook project, @msw about Slack comms, then a long chat with @zrl about workflow/responsibilities at HQ
Here’s what @matthew & I made for dinner. Going on a quick weekend trip in the morning!
@winston0Just finished hosting OSF Live! it was super fun! we got, cool music ( may or may not hv stolen lovesick from @zrl), awesome challenge submissions, and more! rn, we r deciding the winner who will get 200gp!!!! overall, it was super fun and I really enjoyed it! also, 1 hour left of OSF task submissions!!!!!!
Here’s some pics from OSF Live!
@mukul-a0It feels so motivating to have a message liked by @zrl
@doreenmwapekatebe80Was learning to draw on a canvas today,so decided to draw the the first name of Zach latta,🤭opps hope spelled it collectly @zrl thanks for hack club(though it didn't come out perfect)
@malte0Damn this was amazing! Thanks for @zrl for the great quote!
@lachlanjc0Every two weeks, @christina695 & @zrl & I write a newsletter to Hack Club’s biggest donors & supporters. Though they look simple, we each spend many hours planning, writing, editing, revising, & testing them. They’ve been an incredibly useful tool for our fundraising, so as we send out new ones, we open source old ones, six weeks behind. Since I’ve been writing our latest issue, I’ve also published our issue from May 20. Here’s a video of the shortcut I made on my iPad to publish!@christina6950Just gettin so technical.....now using VS Code Editor and GitHub Desktop. W tutorials from @zrl & @lachlanjc and from the kitchen @msw thank you! @caleb0I'm sticking this in here 'cause it's not every day @zrl comments on your ship 😊
@lachlanjc0@zrl posted a video with all the details & a live demo, but made a ton of bug fixes & added some new features to Scrapbook today, like user mentions & autolinking. In between streaming WWDC & being extremely excited all day about all the Apple goodness, a productive Monday!
@lachlanjc0Had a fantastic conversation with @zrl under this tree about my role at Hack Club & recent work. After a long way ending in staying up for 37 hours launching Scrapbook & Summer, nice to take a break.
