Welp. That's an awesome "welcome to the neighborhood" a week after moving in. 😭 So much for the "secure" courtyard bike parking.

My vanity call sign application just went through! I'm now officially W7APK on the radio! I even made a website in the "classic" style that I've seen on so many other ham's websites: https://w7apk.com/ I'll be expanding the website as I continue experimenting on the radio!

Day 2! This took way longer than I anticipated, and surprisingly not because of the video.

I started working on it at a coffee shop in NW with the instruments that come with Logic Pro. I got the initial structure of the song done, except for figuring out how it would end, and then decided to got home to finish it.

On the 35 minute bike ride home, I kept going over it in my head and figure out how to end it, and also decided to throw in the little synth arpeggios for the second half. Back at home, I switched most of the instruments over to the East/West instruments which sound way better and are much more expressive.

I didn't really know what to expect going into this today, but I'm pretty happy with it!

Day 3. Today's theme is "breaking news intro song", and also "Aaron attempts to spend less than 5 hours on this today unlike yesterday". I think I accomplished both! #100daysofmusic #100daysproject #the100dayproject

Why Microformats? Owning My Reviews

Back in October, I wrote a bunch of short mini-reviews on products and services that I use regularly. I published them all on a single page called "Favorite Things". In the past, I've written a couple of reviews on Amazon and then copied them to my website as a blog post.I decided it was time to be able to publish proper reviews from my own website, including having them show up in Google with the little stars, what Google now calls "Rich Snippets."Searching for Google's documentation on how to mark up a web page to show the Rich Snippet reveals an interesting pattern. Currently, their documentation provides three recommended markup styles: Microdata, RDFa, and JSON-LD. All three use the Schema.org vocabulary.

Passed the Amateur Radio "General" exam tonight! Tried for the Extra license despite not studying for it, and only got half the questions right. Going to go back next month and take the Extra exam after properly studying for it! New Year's Day is the next exam! Anyone else want to join the party?

Bikey friends: talk me out of getting this used Brompton folding bike to replace my stolen bike. It's a 2016 M6L from the Clever Cycles rental stock, on sale for $1349 down from the normal price of $1812. It has the Dynamo hub already built in. It seems like a really good deal, and from everything I've heard, Bromptons are the best by far, despite being way more expensive.
