The Pinouts Book: Pinout functions for 130 commonly used components
Obligatory shameless plug of https://pinout.xyz where I’ve been maintaining an interactive Raspberry Pi SBC pinout for some years, and the newer https://pico.pinout.xyz where I’ve tried to do the same for the Raspberry Pi Pico board. The latter also became a command-line pinout via the Python package “picopins”
I feel- and of course I’m biased- that if anything is worth bringing to the table for device pinouts it’s interactivity and accessibility. The latter, in particular, is lost in static images. I really leaned into this with the Pico Pinout, including everything from visual accessibility accommodations (avoiding low contrast text background colours), to markup for screen readers to the ability to turn off labels and reduce noise. I’m still unsure if I actually achieved my goal, but it’s been fun.

Q: KS0212 4 port relay interface to the Raspberry Pi
There is a great resource to be found at pinout.xyz that details a lot of boards and the pins they actually use.
-
Network and dual WAN monitor
All the LEDs have their negative pins together and go through two 1k resistors in series on their way to ground (any gpio ground pin). Then a short piece of jumper wire goes from the positive lead of each LED to it's GPIO pin number. Don't use the pin order number, use the GPIO number.

Show HN: An accessible, beautiful Raspberry Pi Pico pinout
I wanted to create an accessible alternative to the official Pico pinout image, offering more complete pin details, light/dark modes, screen-readable text, and at least some capacity to focus on the peripherals you’re interested in. It’s a sister site to the now ancient Raspberry Pi pinout (https://pinout.xyz/) which started out life hosted on a Raspberry Pi.

Setting up "Adafruit SHT-30 Mesh-protected Weather-proof Temperature/Humidity Sensor" with Raspberry Pi
GPIO PIN numbers - its a real pain with both board and BCM numbers (see pinout.xyz for details) without having to translate what the libraries use by default!

My Star64 displays nothing on the HDMI-connected screen
The pins are at top right corner here: https://pinout.xyz/ and you just connect TX to RX, RX to TX and GND to GND. On the software side you can use picocom on the builtin serial device. Not sure which though, seems to depend on the software and exact revision of your RPi.

need help with first time useing
You have mixed up the PIN numbers - the Pi has two sets on numbers (board and BCM) - see here for details

Ask HN: How did you earn your first $100 and first $1k online?
First $100: Thirty copies sold of Video Hub App
First $1,000: Three hundred copies sold of my Video Hub App
https://videohubapp.com/
Though I do donate $3.50 of every sale to a cost-effective charity so in theory I made no money for a while until I bumped the price to $5 / copy.

Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System
semi-on-topic: I created Video Hub App that is like YouTube for local files: shows you a gallery with scrub-able (preview on hover) thumbnails. But does not work streaming videos to TV / tablet - only for local consumption. Hope someone finds it useful.

Generating Income from Open Source
I created Video Hub App which is MIT License
https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App
I also sell it for $5 and have sold just over 5,000 copies last month (5 years old app). Importantly, $3.50 of every purchase goes to a cost-effective charity, GiveWell recommended Against Malaria Foundation (see website for details).

Python GUIs
"The problem" might be that people in this thread and others get frustrated because others have different goals than them.
Of course Electron is overkill for a single-button application. But Visual Basic is absolutely going to be a headache if you want a custom GUI.
Pick the tool that's right for the job!
I build this with Electron: https://videohubapp.com/

Simplest File Renamer - https://www.yboris.dev/renamer & https://github.com/whyboris/Simplest-File-Renamer
I wanted to be able to quickly rename files with my text editor (using keyboard commands), so this lets me do it. Plus I share the app online for free.
Video Hub App - https://videohubapp.com/ & https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App
I started it just for myself, but it ended up so good I spent several more years improving it as people kept buying it (up to almost 5,000 purchases since I started).
Also wrote a couple of dev tools for myself (sharing via NPM too) - https://www.yboris.dev/

I've been data hoarding for 25 years. I have a bajillion hobbies. It's hard to stay organized.
I created Video Hub App: https://videohubapp.com/ - it shows screenshots from videos as you scrub/hover across the thumbnail.

FFmpeg 6.0
I've been so frustrated that FFprobe functionality is not part of FFmpeg.
My app extracts screenshots from videos to create a beautiful gallery of videos. But even though I include FFmpeg already, I need a 50mb FFprobe executable to be bundled with my app just so that I can determine the width, height, duration, and fps of a video file! What is it that FFprobe does that FFmpeg couldn't do with a few extra pieces of exposed API?

Those making $500/month on side projects in 2023 – Show and tell
Created Video Hub App (that will be 5 years old next month). I sell it for $5 and $3.50 of each purchase goes to the cost-effective charity Against Malaria Foundation (See GiveWell.org for details).
It was averaging around 100 purchases per month, though it's lower over the last year as I've not had time to release new updates (moving to another state is challenging).
https://videohubapp.com/ - Think of it like YouTube for videos on your computer. Browse, search, and organize your videos

Ask HN: What is the most impactful thing you've ever built?
Built Video Hub App that almost 5,000 people have purchased. I was a math teacher, became a web dev 6 years ago, built this 5 years ago. Most proceeds go to charity. Very minor by comparison to others, but I'm just starting out ;)
https://videohubapp.com/ && https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App
What I did that is most impactful is that I've been giving at least 10% of my income to cost-effective charities for over 10 years now (see Giving What We Can - thousands of others do the same). This amounts to almost $100,000 given to charity which translates to thousands of people protected from malaria for many years of their lives.

Ask HN: What's a good business model for selling standalone software
My personal model for my commercial software: charityware - require a payment but made most proceeds go to my favorite (cost-effective) charity.
I'm getting about 100 purchases ($500/month, donating $350 of that) with my Video Hub App - https://videohubapp.com/ - which is also open source - https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App
I wrote about charityware a few years ago: https://medium.com/@whyboris/charityware-doing-good-with-pro...
