TMPDIR Hardware/Software Engineering Community

James @walkah and I had a great call with @cbrake this week about his IoT work and how Fission / IPFS might work for that. Was just looking through his company website, and discovered some great resources for supporting developers building software/hardware and building businesses around that.

TMPDIR is a community for engineers by engineers with a focus on open source, hardware/software product development, and all things related.

There’s a Discourse forum: https://community.tmpdir.org/

And also a podcast: https://tmpdir.org/

I’ve asked Cliff to come on one of our weekly video chats to talk about IoT, now that I know he’s a podcaster I’m going to ask about this TMPDIR community as well!

We’ll tag things like indiebiz (and we’ve got the same channel in Discord chat). At some point we can turn that into it’s own category as well.

@boris – thanks for the feedback and intro.

Anyone is welcome to join (or listen) in at TMPDIR discourse. One thing I really like about the Discourse platform is the low frequency summary emails – it is a nice way to keep plugged into a large number of communities without getting a lot of interruptions, or having to go to sites and click through a lot of conversations to see what is going on. Seems like a nice alternative to social media, or even linked-in, where it seems the goal is to maximize distraction.
