| ubuntourist | Hail | 11:48 |
| *** mjsir911 has joined #novawebdev | 12:14 | |
| ubuntourist | mjsir911, How goes the adventure? | 12:30 |
| mjsir911 | Good, actually catching a train to DC tonight | 12:30 |
| ubuntourist | Indeed? Arriving when? | 12:31 |
| mjsir911 | tomorrow morning, overnight train | 12:31 |
| mjsir911 | gonna lug up the rest of my stuff labor day | 12:31 |
| ubuntourist | Ah. I don't recall if I sent to you, but Flint sent out word that, rather than build "Casa Flint" they're buying "Casa Flint II" -- an 11-minute walk from their old digs. | 12:32 |
| mjsir911 | I don't think you did, but I'm glad to hear | 12:33 |
| ubuntourist | I'm considering adventuring up there before the dead of winter, and perhaps, will do Boston on the way. I still haven't decided exactly on the when and how. | 12:33 |
| ubuntourist | (or even "if".) | 12:34 |
| mjsir911 | Well, theres definitely plenty to do here. I'm going to start attending "code for boston" next week, and taking a look at some makerspaces | 12:35 |
| mjsir911 | My landlord used to have an office @ MIT next to stallman's, funny story | 12:36 |
| ubuntourist | Interesting... BTW, is that the guy who asked me for a reference? | 12:39 |
| ubuntourist | As for spaces in Boston, I'm surprised NONE are on the Hackerspaces map... https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/List_of_Hackerspaces | 12:39 |
| mjsir911 | Yeah that is: tom klemas | 12:41 |
| ubuntourist | And, I take it back: Their map is apparently "borked". Instead, see https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/Boston | 12:43 |
| mjsir911 | Interestingly: https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/Boston | 12:43 |
| mjsir911 | yeah | 12:43 |
| mjsir911 | from Artisan's Asylum: "Designing and building a giant laserharp for a Radio Shack design challenge " | 12:44 |
| ubuntourist | Ooo!!! More laser harps!!! Did you check out the video of the Instructables one? The guy who did it has another page on a vertical laser harp he did a few years ago. | 12:45 |
| mjsir911 | I took a quick glance, looked pretty cool | 12:45 |
| ubuntourist | Meanwhile, doing what millions have done before me: I got my old synthesizer talking over a MIDI <---> USB cable to my computer and now can both record from and send to the synthesizer. | 12:46 |
| mjsir911 | amazing, sounds like the first steps to making instruments | 12:47 |
| ubuntourist | I'm also getting the hang of creating Lilypond and MuseScore scores even if I cannot read them myself. (And Rosegarden attempts to record from the synth and export to MIDI file, Lilypond score, or Music XML. | 12:48 |
| ubuntourist | But so far, the resulting Lilypond and Music XML files leave MUCH to be desired. It's at the level of really bad speech-to-text captioning... a step above random line noise.) | 12:50 |
| ubuntourist | My hope is that (a) I can jigger the configurations for one or all apps to improve that, (b) improve my playing, and (c) learn to edit -- probably in Rosegarden -- to produce cleaner scores. | 12:51 |
| mjsir911 | interesting. Have you tried making MIDIs manually through python or somethin? | 12:53 |
| ubuntourist | mjsir911, Not yet. I once knew MIDI a lot better, and have recently dug up old documentation I made or found -- including the manual for the Korg M1 synthesizer that I wrote C code for. | 12:54 |
| ubuntourist | One fun tidbit: A guy named Bob McQueer wrote a MIDI primer back when dinosaurs roamed the earth. I had a copy on an old backup, but never noticed this at the bottom: | 12:56 |
| ubuntourist | 22 Bcy, 3151 | 12:57 |
| ubuntourist | Looking at it yesterday, I thought "That looks suspiciously like a date, but in no dating system I am aware of..." | 12:58 |
| ubuntourist | As it turns out, yea verily, it is a date... though a bit whimsical: https://calendars.wikia.org/wiki/Erisian_(or_Discordian)_Calendar | 12:58 |
| ubuntourist | "Bcy" is the three-letter abbreviation for the month "Bureaucracy". | 12:59 |
| mjsir911 | what | 12:59 |
| mjsir911 | very obscure | 12:59 |
| mjsir911 | "ddate, a program that prints the current date in the Discordian calendar, is quietly included in most GNU/Linux-distributions. " | 13:00 |
| ubuntourist | And, get this: "apt install ddate" -- of course! -- will install the "Discordian date" application. | 13:00 |
| ubuntourist | I see you zeroed in on the same thing. ;-) | 13:01 |
| mjsir911 | according to https://github.com/bo0ts/ddate, ddate used to be included in utils-linux | 13:02 |
| ubuntourist | Yeah, I saw that it used to be a bit more standard. | 13:02 |
| ubuntourist | According to the [Kalendae Discordium - Thuddite-to-Discordian Date Converter and Calendar](http://calendar.discordipedia.org/) * Sweetmorn Bureaucracy 22nd, YOLD 3151 was Thursday August 29th, 1985 | 13:03 |
| ubuntourist | (The date on the MIDI primer.) | 13:04 |
| ubuntourist | Anyway, good to hear you're doing well. And, even though I've never seen it, don't forget this "Game of Thrones" quote: "Winter is coming." -- and you're in Boston. Pack for winter. | 13:06 |
| mjsir911 | Yep, you too! thanks for the advice, this week has gotten much cooler already | 13:06 |
| ubuntourist | (Not quite as extreme as Rochester or, even worse, Barre, VT. But still, a bit nippier -- and often FAR snowier than the southern climes.) | 13:07 |
| ubuntourist | Gotta run. As Willie Wonka (as portrayed by Gene Wilder, not Johnny Depp) said "So much time! So little to do! No... Wait... Strike that... Reverse it..." (or something similar). | 13:09 |
