I do believe I may have gotten KiCad figured out.  Now to figure out how to make a custom footprint, add drills, and such.

Took possession of my new house. Official move-in is set for the weekend of the 20th.

Congratulations and good luck with the move!

Today I learned that shouting at horses is a violent crime in the UK.

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

Now this is something I like to see. What exactly does the smoker do to the cheese?

As for me I picked a graphic design class for winter and shipped out my eBay sale

I let my keyboard try coffee for the first time today.

Although it seemed to enjoy it, I doubt I will let it have more coffee in the future.

For the first time in 7 years, I woke up when I wanted (9:30), went out and got myself breakfast and I am now sitting in my living room, alone in my house, enjoying a meal and drinking coffee. And browsing GH, naturally.

My sister had my kids sleep over last night and that means I have had a night and morning to myself. It is amazing. This is what peace feels like.

Wrote a couple applications to make it so I can host all my static websites (built with Hugo | gohugo.io) on the cloud.ca OpenStack Swift object store.  Basically, one tool builds and deploys the site and makes sure the object store is configured to server the site publically.  The other tool is a simple reverse proxy which translates 'my-domains.com' to their respective 'my-domains.com' container in the object store...

Pretty happy with this setup.  Launching new websites now takes minutes and deploying new changes is a single command line.  BOOM!!!

It's amazing how cheap static website hosting can be nowadays. I've got a few using Amazon S3's static hosting and its super simple to set up.

Ya. I am currently hosting my sites for free on gh-pages (guide), but I get free resources on cloud.ca, so i am trying to consolidate there. Looking to potentially offer free hosting of static sites with this method on cloud.ca. Just have to build the end user ui at this point and make sure I can convince the cloud.ca team its a good idea to give us more visibility.

Went to the keyboard meetup and met some great people. Traded something I didn't want for something I really wanted.

Whipper Snippering done.

And there was at least one person in each direction up and down the street doing the same thing.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Wrote a couple applications to make it so I can host all my static websites (built with Hugo | gohugo.io) on the cloud.ca OpenStack Swift object store.  Basically, one tool builds and deploys the site and makes sure the object store is configured to server the site publically.  The other tool is a simple reverse proxy which translates 'my-domains.com' to their respective 'my-domains.com' container in the object store...

Pretty happy with this setup.  Launching new websites now takes minutes and deploying new changes is a single command line.  BOOM!!!
It's amazing how cheap static website hosting can be nowadays. I've got a few using Amazon S3's static hosting and its super simple to set up.

It's low-cost and low-risk, as long as you have someone to police the content they post. Not a bad idea.

Ya. No one else can merge files into your git repo directly, so you don't have to worry about the content changing. People could create pull requests if they have suggested content changes.

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

FYI, a blog is not a static website. It changes every time you last something, or somebody comments, etc. This requires a dynamic backend (PHP or similar), and usually a database of some kind. That's beyond the scope of the static hosting swill is talking about.

Well, you do have some searching options now (bottom of the page at https://gohugo.io/tools/), so that is interesting.  Bleve search is the same search engine I am using for my pm_search tool.

Static sites are becoming pretty interesting for most people's needs now.

Spent most of the afternoon doing dictation on a crappy Dell keyboard.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
