wait what happened? i'm unfortunately very out of touch with recent events on the mailing list
clacker-o-matic··on Membrane: Media Framework for Elixir
That would be the dream. Do you know of any major apps using elixir besides telecom?
clacker-o-matic··on Tired of launching into silence? I built a zero-friction feedback tool
it looks really clean! i would love if there was a demo of the dashboard that I could play with without deploying this to my own project or signing up
clacker-o-matic··on Gender characteristics of service robots can influence customer decisions
That's really interesting; the research methodology seems perhaps a bit flawed though. They didn't seem to explain the "power" metric very well when asking the question (in section 3.1 they said the question was ranked on a scale of 1 to 7 from powerless/lacking control to powerful/in control which seems a bit abstract). The ratio of men to women was 3:7 and in both annual income and age the ranges were quite small focusing mainly on an average age of 30 +- 5 years and annual income between $40k-$60k.
clacker-o-matic··on Bluesky Community Verifications
Ever since Bluesky launched verification checkmarks and then @dame.is launched cred.blue's verification tool to simplify creating verification records, I thought it would be very cool to be able to visualize those records on the BlueSky appview.

I originally created this as a bookmarklet which was very fun but it got a bit annoying to constantly bundle and update the bookmark so I moved to a user.js approach that works with tampermonkey instead. The demo vid linked below showcases a slightly earlier version where it was still using the bookmarklet but both versions are still kept up to date.

clacker-o-matic··on First and likely only island Hackathon for teenagers
Hackclub just launched shipwrecked which is a hackathon that will take place on an island in the Boston bay from august 8-11.

There are 130 spots at this hackathon and in order to get one you need to work on 4 projects over the summer and try to get at least one of them to go viral (top of hn being on of of the ways) as well as work on those projects for at least 60 hours.

Hackclub has done a bunch of other incredible hackathons in years past like [trail](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufMUJ9D1fi8) (30 teens hike the pacific crest trail with hardware they made themselves), [boreal](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiG3fYq3xUU) train hackathon across Canada (sadly cut short because of wild fires in Jasper so they didn't get to traverse the whole length just the first half), and the latest one [Juice](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiDWvGPl0z0) where 100 teenagers worked on their games for 100 hours each and then opened a gaming cafe in Shanghai!

If you are a teenager (or middleschooler) or know one then have them signup (or signup yourself) at https://shipwrecked.hackclub.com and then join the slack community (best bit of hc ^-^) at https://hackclub.com/slack

clacker-o-matic··on Open Source Coalition Announces 'Model-Signing' to Strengthen ML Supply Chain
Personally (i know practically nothing about signing lol) i’m wondering how much actual users are going to use this. I kind of wonder if it’s gonna be gonna be kind of like a hash. Or is this going to be integrated into model software?
clacker-o-matic··on HCB is open source under AGPL 3.0
HCB is a fiscal sponsorship platform for highschool students to give them the tools to easily and efficiently managed funds. By being fiscally sponsored by a 501c3 students get the ability to have tax free donations and they can use the open mode to publicly disclose their transactions! You can see an example of such an org at [hcb.hackclub.com/hq](https://hcb.hackclub.com/hq) where hackclub has their finances public.

clacker-o-matic··on Show HN: Emdash – Slack/Zoom alternative for distributed team collaboration
One note I have about your pricing page is that you don't explain what a startup or small to midsize team actually is. I would also much rather have a set pricing scheme immediately with a 60-90 day trial period similar to how slack works.

clacker-o-matic··on We are teen hackers from around the world who code together
I helped develop hackatime (https://github.com/hackclub/hackatime/) this fall for our latest project high seas, and it's been a truly amazing experience. I'm 16, and I never thought I would be maintaining and operating a program with over 17 thousand users and 25 million+ rows! It's been a wild ride that I don't think I would have gotten without hackclub :) Also just in general the community is amazingly supportive; I joined a little over a year ago and I've made a ton of really amazing friends that I hope I can keep for the rest of my life ^_^
clacker-o-matic··on A subtle layout bug in Google Search: When CJK text-wrapping meets float
Fascinating article! Weird side note but lovely note callout. I’ve been trying to get something similar on my site but haven't got it to work right. Is the code for your site open source? I check your GitHub and couldn’t find it.
clacker-o-matic··on Playing with Hilton's Digital Keycard API
It definitely would; If I can figure out how to decompile the app and figure out how the key works, it should theoretically work!
clacker-o-matic··on Playing with Hilton's Digital Keycard API
Hi yall! I'm pretty new to writing blog posts but this was interesting to write, so hopefully it will be interesting to read ^-^

For a bit of background about this article, I wrote it in the space of 9 hours while I was at a Hilton I was staying at. I started writing after I got there around 21:00 went to bed at 23:00 and woke up at 5:30 to finish it.
