I'm the one with the criticism. You should argue with me, not those who agree with my criticism.
This project is so bad, anyone with basic physics and electronics understanding can tell it's bad. Unlike @sleepybrett I never even built a keyboard in my life and yet can I still find numerous problems with that keyboard. And I didn't even get to the MCU firmware part. I can only imagine how bad that is.
If this project was done only to learn, then why is it here? People don't usually brag about what they learn. (Look ma! I put 3 lego bricks together.) I mean, it's perfectly OK to build projects to learn, make mistakes and learn from those too - I wish I had time to do that myself - but showing it on HN as if it's some viable product? Don't do that.
Why are you defending it? Just because it looks "cool"?
