My wife and I just finished 3 batches of jam: Strawberry, Strawberry/Rhubarb, and Strawberry/Blueberry.
Note to self for next year: We don’t need a full flat (8 quarts) of strawberries. Especially not when the farmer at the farm market dumps 3 or 4 quarts of yesterday’s berries on top, since “you’re just going to smash them up”.
My dog got a clean bill of health from the vet this week! She had knee surgery 8 weeks ago and at her final check-up/x-ray yesterday they said she is all clear to go back to her normal activities (including going on the couch, which she has missed desperately during her recovery).
I got done with a huge Kubernetes deployment at work that I’ve been working on for weeks… Everything is running and it makes me happy to finish that lol
Pikes peak via the cog railway. I know you, too, want to know: 10 pinion gears and diesel-electric-AC traction motors. The rack has some odd undercutting…
Part of a family reunion.
I had a very busy week, did a lot of walking, had a wonderful time at our alumni gathering yesterday, had an enjoyable poker night with friends, and finally started attempting to understand and use online dating apps.
Ad for Tram34 - A locally designed, mostly locally manufactured future tramway vehicle, made by our metro operator. (34 is the numerical code for İstanbul Province - also why Metrobüs was route 34 (34, 34AS 34Z etc. etc.)) Set against the backdrop of the Levent financial district
A quiet week at work:
–Repairing last week’s damages, which won’t be as nasty as we thought it would be (win)
–Backup unit is now running and is busy testing improvements (win)
–New concrete mixer is not breaking down like it had been (win)
And at home, finally finished an upgrade I’ve been working on for some of the scale locos. (well… “finished”. I cheated a bit, and still need to fine-tune the speedmatching.)
Bit late to the thread but I’ve been learning a lot about three.js and visualizing robot data. I figured out how to draw live LiDAR data on a 3d map I can move around. I’m really looking forward to using this with FRC next season. This project is for work, but definitely usable outside of what I do for work.
I’ve even gotten it to correlate to a world coordinate pose and orientation that matches my “robot” cube.
Got my wisdom teeth out and am not entirely incapacitated lol
