    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

    Articles that I need to write:

    🔲 Exploring the 3D Web for WordPress developers

    🔲 Exploring the 3D Web for FileMaker developers

    Other article format ideas:

    Why

    [FileMaker/WordPress]

    developers should use

    [Three JS, AFrame, PlayCanvas, Babylon JS, 8thWall, etc.]

    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.

    Just a quick demo of writing Python in VS Code over SSH. Tutorial: Coding on Raspberry Pi remotely with Visual Studio Code

    @vrhermit

    Me: It is important that I take time away from the computer each weekend.

    Also me: spends Sunday learning VIM so I can write python for my Tiny Memex over SSH without juggling multiple terminal windows

    @vrhermit

    First day play with my Tiny Memex.

    This month I’m working full-time on a database project for one of my consulting customers.

    I won’t have much time to work on Canvatorium or my PlayCanvas side projects.

    Things will get back to normal in July and I’ll resume regular updates on these projects.
