It has been six years since I last used Windows for any remotely serious software development. I've used Ubuntu, Arch, or FreeBSD since. But eventually I spent so much time working around common workplace tasks that I decided to put Windows 10 Pro on my work laptop. Windows...

This rolling ball game brings Skee-Ball-style fun from the arcade to your home

from Arduino Blog [alt+shift+b] in technology

a year ago
Ask your friends about their favorite games at the arcade and the most common answer will likely be Skee-Ball. But while many other popular arcade games have viable at-home alternatives, Skee-Ball doesn’t — at least not unless you’re willing to spend a serious amount of money....

Script that shows smart values of all disks'

from Louwrentius [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago
Please use this tool on github instead of this ancient script. So you have a Linux system with a lot of hard drives. If you want to quickly check on some key SMART values to determine the health of individual disks, you might be interested in this script. I wrote a small Python...

Designing backend servers to connect with external services is challenging as you need to take into account unreliability and unpredictability.

Coolest controllers ever? Icy gamepads melt in users’ hands

from Arduino Blog [alt+shift+b] in technology

Nintendo’s Joy-Con controller system is very innovative and generally well-regarded, with one major exception: stick drift. That’s a reliability issue that eventually affects a large percentage of Joy-Cons, to the frustration of gamers. But what if that was intentional and...

This morning I wanted to deploy a simple Sinatra app to Render.com. It wasn’t super obvious to me, so I figured I’d write down what worked in the end. First, a Gemfile: # Gemfile source 'https://rubygems.org' gem 'sinatra' gem 'sinatra-contrib' gem 'puma' * I’m pretty sure...

Being unemployed can be incredibly depressing. So much rejection. Everything seems to be out of your control. Everything except for one thing: what you produce. You might know that repeatedly posting on social media that you are looking for work is ineffective. That it looks (or...

Move Mario remotely with this online N64 controller system

from Arduino Blog [alt+shift+b] in technology

For obvious reasons, video game console controls provide input commands directly to the console. Modern consoles may do so wirelessly, but the effect is the same: direct input. But what if you connected a “controller” to the internet? Then you could play from anywhere and that is...

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
