Building a Bitcoin Price Tracker with ESP32-S3 and AMOLED Display
Introduction
In this project, we’ve created a Bitcoin price tracker that displays real-time price data on a beautiful AMOLED screen. The device fetches Bitcoin price information from the CoinDesk API and presents it in an easy-to-read graph format, with additional information like high/low prices and percentage changes.
Recently, I embarked on an interesting project: creating an AI-powered system that generates humorous stories and satirical news articles about various types of balls. The result is A Balling Site, where you can find these AI-generated tales.
The Concept
The idea was to create a system that could:
Generate engaging stories and news articles about different types of balls
Create AI-generated images for both the main content and specific scenes
Automatically format and deploy everything to a Hugo static site
Technical Stack
The system uses a combination of modern tools and APIs:
We have a conversation in a Norwegian recording to confirm details about a specific question:
“Did person A ask person B if he wanted coffee?”
Sounds straightforward, right?
The plan was to
use pyannote-audio to capture timestamps whenever the speaker switched between A and B,
then use nb-whisper-large to transcribe those segments in Norwegian,
and finally use an LLM with Ollama to answer the question: yes or no.
I have been trying different blogging tools and where wordpress have been the staple, its become so bloated it’s redicules.
So i started looking at alternatives and stumbled on to some systems that generate html out of markup pages.
Aslong is its not a dynamic focus site then this seems to be the fastes easyest setup to do so i decided to try it out.
I am now using Hugo and will be trying to migrate over.
The workflow is abit different but there is alot less “things” to worry about, like image placement and such.
From Mountains to Fjords: An Epic Bike Ride from Finse to Flåm
There’s something undeniably magical about Norway’s rugged landscapes a blend of towering mountains, serene fjords, and unpredictable weather that keeps even the most seasoned adventurers on their toes. Recently, I embarked on an unforgettable journey that combined all these elements: a bike ride from Finse to Flåm that tested my limits and rewarded me with some of the most breathtaking views imaginable.
We were wondering if Henning Olsen had a store at their factory in Kristiansand, and I stumbled upon a small search field where you could apply for free ice used in events.
