It's funny to watch old videos of cats because they look just like modern cats. I guess cat fashion hasn't changed. https://archive.org/details/PrivateL1947 -
Day 58: Showing Image Uploads in IRC from the Slack Gateway #100DaysOfIndieWeb
I consider my Slack/IRC gateway the best one out there, at least in terms of looking the most native to IRC users. We use this to connect the #indieweb IRC channel with our Slack team, so people can join the same rooms from either Slack or IRC. Often times people don't even realize that other users in IRC are actually connected via the Slack bridge! However, one glaring missing feature was that image uploads from Slack did not come through right. Today, I fixed that!continue reading... -
Being a purchaser for Grocery Outlet must be fun. You probably get to see all kinds of frankenfoods, like this double-stacked-wrapped block of Gouda for $2.81.

Day 57 - Drone
Day 57. This is an experiment in holding a droning tone throughout the whole song, while also having some other harmonies.continue reading... -
After a few setbacks and trying out various combinations of components, I finally have all 16 pumps being controlled from this Arduino! I ended up getting a new Arduino that has enough pins to drive the relays directly instead of going through a serial expander board which was causing me problems. I also abandoned the Darlington arrays in favor of these relay boards that have all the relay isolation stuff done for me. This also keeps the 5v Arduino and 12v pump power supplies completely separate, which I feel much more comfortable about. Next step is to mount this into my cabinet and hook up the tubing! Then time to get to work on the recipe database! #barbot

Day 56: Added a Reset Login Button to Quill #100DaysOfIndieWeb
This morning, Marty mentioned that he was having trouble with Quill because of my previous change where I updated the default scope to "create" instead of "post". (I documented this change as part of Day 51, but I suppose it could have been its own 100days project itself!)continue reading... -

Day 56 - Concerto No. 56 in Cm
Day 56. For today's song, my dad chose the instrumentation and style, and I had to see what I could come up with. He gave me "horns" and "concerto". So I started by studying the structure of concertos. A concerto typically features a single instrument soloist, with an orchestra or piano backing it up. They typically start out with an "exposition" from the instruments other than the featured instrument, introducing the theme. Then the second exposition features the soloist introducing the theme again. This is followed by a "development" section, featuring the soloist, usually in a different key, which ends by building up on the maj7th chord to a coda section which repeats the original theme in the tonic. My challenge was to fit all this in under a minute, so I basically have one phrase per section. I started by using the motif from Day 3 and building everything up around that. The very last phrase is basically the Day 3 song at the end.continue reading... -
Day 55: Showing the Raw Request in Micropub.rocks #100DaysOfIndieWeb
Today I added a section to Micropub.rocks that shows the raw request that was received from the client. This way it is very obvious what your client sends, which should help while developing your client.continue reading... -
Day 55 - Cello
Day 55. I liked the electric cello instrument I used yesterday and wanted to explore it more today. This one features the cello with just a few instruments to back it. The recordings are amazing, and the electric cello is a really interesting instrument that sounds quite different from a regular cello while still being pretty expressive. It's basically the electric guitar equivalent for something the size of a cello. No resonant body, just capturing the sounds from the vibrating strings.continue reading... -

Day 54 - Stars
Day 54. In this one, I wanted to play around with some new EastWest instruments I downloaded. The voice is from the "Voices of Passion" set, and the solo instrument is an electric cello. The drone background is four string instruments plus a faint synth sound to round things out. I like how ethereal this is, and how it lacks a beat.continue reading... -

Day 53: Cleaning up Quill UI #100DaysOfIndieWeb
I realized that most of the time I'm not posting photos in Quill, so having the photo fields in the note interface so prominent isn't necessary, and adds clutter. So now, a camera icon takes the place of the form fields, and when you click it, it expands to the fields that were there before. This makes the note interface slightly cleaner.continue reading... -
Day 53 - Epic Trailer
Day 53. Epic trailer music! I had fun with layering a bunch of orchestra instruments with a choir and several kinds of drums and cymbals. This needed a video more fun than the FInal Cut animations so I found some creative commons drone footage on Vimeo by Stephane Ma. https://vimeo.com/133415675continue reading... -
Day 52: First client test for Micropub.rocks #100DaysOfIndieWeb
Today I implemented the first client test for Micropub.rocks. This means Micropub.rocks acts as a Micropub server, expecting certain parameters from the client. The first test is a simple test of creating an h-entry with text content. The test describes what it expects, and when the client makes the Micropub POST request, the post is rendered in realtime.continue reading... -
