Micro Blog

When I shutdown my Facebook and Instagram accounts, years ago, I switched to more open source friendly social media service networks; Pleroma was my first stop in the Fediverse. Since then I’ve maintained several Fediverse accounts and now BlueSky and Nostr.

My Micro Blog project aggregates all these posts from various accounts backs them up and makes them all available here on my personal site.

Summery of accounts and features supported

I'd like to run a Starwars / Space Sci-fi game. From everything I've read seems best to skip the officially licensed games and go for 3rd party ones.

I'm in talks with local game store to get a copy of Scum and Villainy.

Or something new on my radar that heard about on yes indie'd podcast: Galactic & Going Rogue.

After finishing Red Dead Redemption 2 with my partner, I’m hungry for more Wild West.

Thinking of running a game of Frontier Scum.

Reblogged post from Extelec@mstdn.social

Back up your 2fa keys, or add a second method.

Do it now, before your phone dies/breaks/is stolen.

That's it that's the post.

Did it take me an hour to figure out how to dynamically pass limit and offset to a XTQL query? Yes. Is it a pretty solution? No. Do I care? Hell no, it finally works!

The perfect Magic the Gathering companion app as far as I’m concerned.

The playful ui, how it shows difference as you adjust life totals, and the fun end game animations are just perfect.

Super impressed with Ikea smart home lighting products. For 13 EUR you get a smart bulb and remote control. You can configure the remote to do whatever. I remapped the on button to toggle the bulb, freeing the off button to toggle a different light.

Setup includes turning the bulb on and off 6 time to put it in sync mode so zigbee2mqtt can pick it up. Clever.

Great talk on functional programming + Clojure from Javascript perspective, where all code examples are in Javascript.

jQuery -> React was a shift toward more functional programming.

Babashka + Gum is exactly my preference for shell scripting on my personal projects.

Wes Anderson’s Phoenician Scheme is my favorite work of his yet! Made it to the theater with my partner to see it, a rare event as parents of a 1.5 year old. Only downer on the evening was no popcorn 🍿 at the theater?! Thought that was half the point of going to the movie theater.

Never seen a suite of cli tools with such cool graphics! Makes me want to try them just from the aesthetic.

I was in a Lisp mood and thanks to my new on-prem Nomad cluster spinning up Docker containers is super easy.

Tried Racket lang for the first time, avoiding the headache of Java errors from Clojure. Was pretty fun. Actually got it to do something useful. Didn't get a chance to to try the language oriented programming features though.

typedoc is a cool project for turning your Typescript types into a documentation website.

typedoc.org/

made a repo to show how to set it up with gitlab pages: git.sr.ht/~travisshears/typedo

Container orchestration in the homelab context?

Docker compose doesn’t handle cluster of nodes.
Docker swarm no UI.
Kubernetes over kill and hard to maintain.

I went with nomad. It’s not without gochas, but so far works well.
