This is Dim Sum Labs' Public HackJam meet. Free! Everyone is welcome to join us. If you are an engineer, designer, programmer, artist, creator, innovator, visionary, entrepreneur, or inventor, join us for an evening of thought-provoking conversations. Or better yet, bring your projects, ask for help, and show them off.

This week we have two visitors showing off their projects.

Pomoduino: Torrey Nommesen, a guy who loves to travel, hang out with makers, and learn new things is showing off his Arduino-based productivity timer on a PCB that uses the Pomodoro Technique. In this session, I’ll briefly explain how the Pomodoro method boosts focus, then we’ll dive in and solder the timer together from scratch. You’ll walk away with a functional gadget for your desk and a practical technique for your toolkit. This project is his excuse to connect, share skills, and learn from this amazing community and hopefully to help fund my habit of exploring hacker spaces worldwide. You'll be able to build one and take it home from between 80-250HKD.

Rendering and serving 400 clients on a phone: Valentin Burov is a roboticist by day and runs DigitRaver out of San Francisco by night. He’s visiting DSL to give a microtalk on how he scaled the virtual event space to serve 10x the users of Fortnite per shard. We’ll go beyond the traditional optimizations and talk about memory congruency, data oriented design, and how to not throw the kitchen sink and use only what you need for your 3D app. Then we’ll show off the gains in a live demo via chaos monkeys

Calling for show-and-tell: if you want to share your projects on coding, making, art, and tech venture projects, come jam with us on HackJam. We can accommodate and help you promote here. Contact us here or via the means listed below.

Being Hong Kong's longest-running Hackerspace (since 2011), we are happy to host you, who may:

  • Be coming from out-of-town
  • Be from other Hacker/Maker/co-working spaces
  • Want to get hands-on and create
  • Wish to network with high-quality, friendly, like-minded people
  • Be curious about what all this is about
  • Just want to have a drink while coding.
