5 entertaining things you can find with the GitHub Search API

Let's have some command-line fun with curl, [jq][1], and the [new GitHub Search API][2].

Today we're looking for:

The hottest repositories created in the last week.
The oldest user accounts with zero followers. (So sad.)
Issue trends by language.
Clojure projects defying convention.

Cutoff frequency

Circular waveguide cutoff frequency equation for TE11 mode

fc = 1.8412 c / 2 pi a = 1.8412 c / pi D

Himawari-8 animation tutorial

Here’s how to make animations like this one. It requires intermediate Unix command-line knowledge, to install some tools and to debug if they don’t work. You’ll need these utilities:

curl (or you can translate to wget)
convert and montage, part of ImageMagick
ffmpeg, plus whatever codecs
parallel, for iteration that’s nicer than shell for loops or xargs
run everything in zsh for leading 0s in numerical ranges to work

	-- You could setup global vars:
	for k,v in ipairs{3,10,4,9,2,1,nil,nil,nil,11,12,nil,6,7,5,8,0} do _G['GPIO'..k-1]=v end

	-- and use them like this:
	gpio.mode(GPIO2, gpio.OUTPUT)
	gpio.write(GPIO2, gpio.WRITE)
