We're excited to partner with @hackclub on the Stardance Challenge, one of the largest STEM challenges for teens this summer.
From June 1 to September 30, students ages 13 to 18 worldwide will design, build, and ship real technical projects, earning rewards along the way. Top US participants will be invited to an in-person hackathon at AMD Advancing AI in San Francisco this July.
We're proud to support the next generation of builders alongside @NASA and @GitHub.
Know a teen who should be part of this? Send this to them: stardance.hackclub.com/amd

Tom was once a high schooler in Iowa etching circuit boards using chemicals in his bathtub.
Then he co-founded GitHub.
Now he's helping 47 teens get their start in electronics and manufacturing by funding their projects and taking them to Shenzhen.
Thank you Tom!!!

I turned 47 years old yesterday, so it's time for my traditional reverse birthday present!
This year, I'm sending 47 teenagers to Shenzhen, China (the electronics capital of the world) to build hardware at Hack Club's Fallout, our flagship electronics hackathon!
Fallout is a free, in-person hackathon in Shenzhen by Hack Club open to teenagers ages 13–18. Participants spend one week designing, manufacturing, and assembling their own electronics at the source, visiting the legendary Huaqiangbei markets, touring PCB fabs, and shipping a finished hardware project by the end of the trip. I'm covering travel and build costs for the first 47 teenagers!
To sign up, all you need to do is go to fallout.hackclub.com and start building.
For example, heres a custom made expressive midi controller based on the stm32 ecosystem. Built by a 17 year old from NYC:
github.com/udu3324/stm32pe-m…
Now go build something cool!

Huge thank you for the major donation to @hackclub from the Proton Lifetime Charity Fundraiser organized by the Proton Foundation. They are the governing non-profit organization behind secure email provider Proton Mail. @ProtonPrivacy Kids deserve privacy too.

We made a mistake. This was the result of an oversight in our billing process, and we are returning Hack Club to its previous nonprofit pricing while we work with them directly to ensure their workspace remains fully accessible. We value the work Hack Club does to inspire and educate young people in coding and technology, and we regret the concern this situation has caused. We will be reviewing our billing and communications processes to provide nonprofits clearer guidance and adequate grace periods as they grow.

Slack is threatening to shut off a big nonprofit teen coding community @hackclub (which is amazing and which I’ve helped for years) with just 3 days to migrate off. This would strand thousands of of the world’s smartest future coders. They are asking for $50k (a surprise 60x nonprofit price increase) but won’t even give assurances of more time or future service if that’s paid.
Anyone who can help? Feels like a mistaken decision on their part by someone who isn’t seeing the whole picture.

We’ve done it! Check us out: github.com/hackclub/hcb. Taking a seven year old codebase and getting it ready to be public was a massive project.

Open sourcing HCB has been years in the making; today's the day: github.com/hackclub/hcb!
We're all about transparency w/ our finances, it only felt right to do the same with our code.

This has been years in the making! Since joining the HCB team in 2020, I've always dreamed of making HCB's codebase public for the world to view- and now it is!
