Wed Nov 22 09:10:22 EST 2017 Slept from ten-thirty to six-thirty, although the loud idling care woke me around five. Mostly sunny today. High of thirty-five. Work: - Work on MECS Done. - Add commit hook to run `go fmt` for mecs-daemon Done. - Write the unit file for mecs-daemon (reference https://paulgorman.org/technical/blog/20171121184114.html) Done. - Review invoices Done. http://0pointer.net/blog/dynamic-users-with-systemd.html http://0pointer.net/blog/all-systems-go-2017-videos-online.html I shopped at Meijer during lunch, and picked up ice cream as a treat for the office. Home: - Order Toys for Tots Done. - Grocery? It's liable to be crazy busy the day before Thanksgiving.... Done. https://pudding.cool/process/introducing-scrollama/ > The what, why, and how to use scrollama.js for your next scrollytelling story. https://www.reddit.com/r/golang/comments/7e8sqv/create_versatile_microservices_in_golang_part_1/ https://blog.golang.org/gobs-of-data > To transmit a data structure across a network or to store it in a file, it must be encoded and then decoded again. There are many encodings available, of course: JSON, XML, Google's protocol buffers, and more. And now there's another, provided by Go's gob package. [...] But for a Go-specific environment, such as communicating between two servers written in Go, there's an opportunity to build something much easier to use and possibly more efficient. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Greyhawk_characters https://foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com/the-sr-71-blackbirds-most-spectacular-flyover-was-also-1719654907 https://kottke.org/17/11/a-record-player-that-plays-slices-of-wood > A tree’s year rings are analysed for their strength, thickness and rate of growth. This data serves as basis for a generative process that outputs piano music. It is mapped to a scale which is again defined by the overall appearance of the wood (ranging from dark to light and from strong texture to light texture). The foundation for the music is certainly found in the defined ruleset of programming and hardware setup, but the data acquired from every tree interprets this ruleset very differently. https://www.battleforthenet.com/ Lunch: coffee, nuts, ice cream Dinner: chicken parm sandwich, fries
