For the first time in my career, I updated an SSL certificate on a FileMaker Server and it didn’t go all fucky and ruin my day.

I have a friend whose preferred valediction is to say something like “I hate people, but I don’t hate you” while walking away. Good friend. 10/10

Here is an early demo of a timeline feature I’m building in a PlayCanvas project. This uses an array of data to determine which actions to perform at a specified time during the sequence.

Concepts * Entities publish events that the timeline can run * Timeline reads an array of objects containing time and action(s) to execute * Actions are run by calling the events using “app . fire(“event-name)”

You can try it out or checkout time timeline script here. Run the scene and press 0 (zero) on your keyboard to kick off the timeline.

I know my choice of platforms isn’t for everyone, but with these three tools I feel like I can make anything:

  • FileMaker
  • WordPress
  • PlayCanvas

All three of these take the hard part of development off my plate, letting me focus on building what I need to build.

Oh, and there are buckets of cash to be had in all three platforms.

Can’t find my way out of this daedabase project

One last Tiny Memex update for today. I setup a basic Python webserver with Flask and hosted a bare bones Babylon JS scene.

This tutorial helped me get started.
