Tiny Code Reader: a $7 QR code sensor

news.ycombinator.com James Bowman 2025-07-23 17:22:51

Tiny Code Reader (TCR) caught my eye when it came out in 2023. It’s a very appealing idea: a self-contained seeing module that just decodes any QR code it sees. I immediately imagined applications in desktop manufacturing, a subject very dear to my heart. You can buy it from Adafruit, Sparkfun, and elsewhere. There’s a main page with a clear getting started guide, and a datasheet. Because it uses the Qwiic connector standard, setting it up is a breeze . It plugs directly into I²CDriver or I²CM

How the 'Minecraft' Score Became Big Business for Its Composer

news.ycombinator.com Kristin Robinson 2025-07-22 18:48:54

In 2009, in between full-time shifts at a local factory, then-19-year-old musician Daniel Rosenfeld composed a score for an independent video game. “It was just a side hustle, maybe not even that. It was a hobby, really,” explains Rosenfeld, who records under the name C418. The game, Minecraft, turned out to be successful beyond Rosenfeld’s wildest dreams. In 2014, Microsoft purchased Minecraft’s Swedish developer, Mojang Studios, for $2.5 billion, and through 2023, it had sold 300 million copi
