Electronic projects:
 
 
I have been handed most of a classic basketball scoreboard.
 
 
 
Each digit on scoreboard has 20 incandescent lamps:
 
 
 
    * * * *
 
    *    *
 
    *    *
 
    * * * *
 
    *    *
 
    *    *
 
    * * * *
 
 
 
 
 
I hope to someday turn it into a clock and get it listed on the
 
[http://www.hackersbench.com/giants.html Unofficial Registry of Giant Digital Clocks"].
 
 
 
Should I divide up each digit into 7 segments, like most digital clocks,
 
or should I add more hardware so I can control each lamp individually?

== Open Circuits wiki ==
 
 
 
In 2013, the OpenCircuits wiki went offline for a while,
 
during the handover when I was trying to take over maintenance of the OpenCircuits wiki.
 
 
 
Oops.
 
 
 
There's still a few things not quite right --
 
after I thought I had completely restored the wiki, the "[[Open Circuits:Community Portal]]" doesn't exist at all,
 
but I can see through the Wayback Machine [https://web.archive.org/web/20130831175940/http://www.opencircuits.com/Open_Circuits:Community_Portal]
 
that there used to be a discussion there.
 
I wish I knew what else needs to be restored.
 
 
 
Some ideas for possibly improving the OpenCircuits wiki:
 
* Install the "Math" extension so we get pretty TeX formulas (<math>\sqrt{20140218}</math>). Done!
 
* Install the SpamBlacklist extension. Done!
 
* Install something to make in-browser schematic editing or viewing or simulating or all three easier. In no particular order:
