I switched to vim a few weeks ago. I did a lot of color scheme tweaking yesterday (a modified version of the Dracula theme) and started using tmux. Feeling pretty good about the set-up so far.

I made this composite shot of all our FFL covers so far a while ago but had not posted it here yet.

Spent at least an hour getting sucked further and further into this.

I made a page for myself to remember important dates and how long I have been different places.

I put up a page of media resources for FFL reports and prototypes. It's mostly for internal use, but kind of a nice overview of what we've put out. The files are pulled and displayed from folders using the github API. This is my second iteration of using github pages to list static directory contents. I like the system. I'd like to expand on it and make it more flexible at some point.

I got multiple colors working, and some zoom scaling as you get in pretty close. The bummer is when I try and get it to do much while zooming I wind up crashing the browser. I don't have a good intuition for what is too much with three.js right now, so it makes for an anxious development experience.

Web birthday card work continues. Now belated, but I'm getting faster as I go.

I plugged some data from a t-sne into the Three.js zoom and pan set-up. It's running well and looks a little ominous. I can't make animated GIFs of it currently because when I screen-record in quicktime it throws the rendering off – I guess because they're both fighting over the GPU.
