I will no longer be posting anything here, and this account will not be active. Supporting this platform does not agree with my values, and recent events (the salute) made this incredibly clear.

PartsBox is now also accessible through https://t.co/VwXOcbDmKt — in case you forget the .com address 😎

All machines are now back online. Apologies for the longer-than-expected downtime. Unfortunately, hosting providers aren't always serious.

[PartsBox @PartsBoxIO]

PartsBox servers are undergoing hardware maintenance, and the service is not available. Expected downtime is less than 30 minutes.

[PartsBox @PartsBoxIO]

Unfortunately, our cloud provider is taking longer than expected to do the maintenance.

[PartsBox @PartsBoxIO]

Hardware maintenance will be performed on PartsBox servers on 2024-06-15 at 8:00am UTC. The service will not be available, planned downtime is less than 30 minutes.

[PartsBox @PartsBoxIO]

All done, things should also run a little faster from now on!

[PartsBox @PartsBoxIO]

Maintenance work: PartsBox is being moved to a new server cluster and this requires several minutes of downtime. Will be back soon!

You can now share your electronic parts database (all of it, or a filtered subset of your parts) as a public webpage. Try it out in Settings|Publishing!

This is what the result looks like: https://t.co/pCqWmevDUL

@abhijit86k The best way would be to pick a unit (say, cm or g) and add stock in that unit, to avoid fractions. So 1m of cable would be 100 units in stock.

My Glasgow from @1bitsquared just arrived and I'm impressed. Little things that matter: labeled cables, symmetric identical A/B ports. Big things that matter: I was able to run the software on the first try. That doesn't happen often. Thanks @whitequark @awygle @marcan42!

Did you know: You can now archive old projects instead of deleting them. Archiving hides a project from view while retaining all its data and build history. The project won't appear in the project table but can be accessed via direct links.

[PartsBox @PartsBoxIO]

Service has now been restored, apologies for the interruption!

[PartsBox @PartsBoxIO]

There is currently an outage, it's being investigated, the expected time to restore service is about 15-20 minutes.

@JLopas From my experience: more important than the numbering scheme is specifying which parts are equivalent (substitutes) and under which conditions. Numbering parts is easy, grouping them into meta-parts (in PartsBox) is decidedly non-obvious.

@chrisgj198 I agree it would be very helpful, and I definitely intend to do it, I'm just not sure when I can get around to it, as it requires some careful design.
