Last day of my stay here at Hütte Höhenegg. Blog post with two ski tours and my first ever snowshoe tour to come.

Continuing to log all my ski tours this year.

First one:
https://travisshears.com/blog/around-rauhkopf/

Thinking of breaking them out of the blog and turning them into something like my dive log. Or just a better way to integrate the maps with the photos. Also a search with a map would be nice to see where they all are in relation to each other.

First day on the slopes this year was Nov 1st

Use programming-positive language!

🚫 DON'T say "arbitrary code execution vulnerability"

✔️ DO say "surprise extension API"

Wanted this feature for over a year! Finally added pinch zoom to my personal site.

I’m back from week in Canary Islands with some dive stories to share. Here is my first of six dive logs. Each includes video footage, maps, and graphs.

Looking into moving from PeerTube https://video.travisshears.xyz/ to hosting my videos exclusivity in AWS S3. Currently running both my PeerTube and Pleroma instances on one VPS and would like to free up HDD space.

I thought since the files are big they should be streamed to the frontend so I got deep into HLS and MPEG-DASH.

Nice ffmpeg one liner for creating HLS: https://gist.github.com/lukebussey/4d27678c72580aeb660c19a6fb73e9ee

Eventually I figured out browsers are smart enough to request the mp4 file in chunks and start the video before the entire file is downloaded! For now I'll be replacing the PeerTube videos with 720p S3 versions.


That still leaves how to handle the experience on slower connections where serving the 480p would be better.
