Is there a way to have current AI tools maintain consistency when generating multiple images of a specific creature or object? For example, if there are images of 'Dr. Venom' they need to look similar, or if there are images of the same space ship.

Seems like there is some way. There's a startup[1] that I've been seeing around on twitter[2] which makes it easy to create in-game assets that are style-consistent. Haven't tried it yet but it looks promising!

One reason is a noncritical third-party dependency; the circuit canvas will patiently wait in line to load forever until fonts.gstatic successfully loads. Normally I wouldn't post that kind of feedback here, but there's no readily apparent way to submit feedback or bug reports at the site so here we are.

CoffeePython · 3 years ago

thanks for the feedback!

ironically maybe it's also feedback that our share feedback button is too hidden

Nice touch that you can fry a LED, but unfortunately I couldn't get the Arduino to fry; it's the expensive part and the one I would want to run a simulation to make sure I will not destroy.

CoffeePython · 3 years ago

oh most've missed adding that in. we'll make sure you can let the magic smoke out of the arduino if you fry it too lol

The ones from 2003 worked - this is mostly blank and does nothing.

CoffeePython · 3 years ago

looks like our db went down for a few minutes when you were trying it out! Sorry about that!

This is great for learning - you should consider a mode that switches to traditional schematic view so people can understand the corresponding circuit.

CoffeePython · 3 years ago

Yeah we'll likely create a schematic view! Thanks

It sure is pretty, but there's a critical issue. Components can have their pins labeled, but this is done in the 3D environment. Just place them down on the right side. There's plenty of white space there. No one wants to rotate a component around like that and strain their head to read. I'm literally just going to pull up Google and get the schematic there. You have the information but it is displayed in a way that is hostile to the user. I can't even see where pin 1 is without this view because there's no marker like we'd see on a standard real life component.

CoffeePython · 3 years ago

Great feedback, we've chatted a bit about this internally already. It's something we'll likely add. In general we're looking for ways to make it easier to see pinouts/voltages/current/etc.

Thanks for sharing!

Also doesn't seem to work in Chrome: I see a toolbar and the rest of the page is blank.

CoffeePython · 3 years ago

looks like we got the HN hug of death lol, back up now

The competition might look ancient, but IMO, a 2D interface would be much more productive and easier to work with. This site is completely unusable for me in Firefox (it does work in Edge though).

CoffeePython · 3 years ago

Yeah on my machine it's a lot slower using Firefox than chrome. We can investigate and see why it's happening.

Also I do agree that 2D interface is probably important to add at some point too!

I think right now the skeuomorphism is nice for folks wanting to get their hands dirty with circuit projects but don't have all the materials/supplies available for whatever reason (cost/space/etc)

doesn't seem to work on chrome either

CoffeePython · 3 years ago

Hey! Would love to investigate and see why this isn't working for you. Any more info on your OS/specs/browser version or what exactly isn't working? Should work on chrome.

Are you using SPICE for the actual simulation?

CoffeePython · 3 years ago

Hey! I work on Diode w/ Austin (OP). Yeah we use a wasm-compiled version of ngSpice for the circuit simulation.
