websockets and mobile networks and ssl

Gahhh.

Just going to ramble on this one:

Websockets is unstable going through cellular networks

Searched Google and solution seems to be SSL connections

Tried to implement, and it works to some extent,

but realized that I'll have to have both Apache, which was running my web front end, and Tornado both listen to 443 which cannot happen

Realize finally that Tornado is a SERVER just like Apache

Try to implement web client through Tornado

It works but Websocket server and the web client still different instances so still can't have both listen, or that's what I'm thinking but I don't have time to think about it at present.

Gotta sleep.

quick recollection on setting things up

If I can swear that the password is correct, then it's possible that I'm getting the ID wrong. Hadn't logged into the web server in a couple of months and was unable to SSH into it. After an hour or so, I ended up deleting the instance and recreating a clean instance (read: erasing everything). I then realized I'd been putting the wrong ID. apt-get install sudo apt-get install Anyways, some links I visited when setting things up (pretty much a dump of whatever I copy-pasted to notes) : Raspberry Pi http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/optimize-the-power-of-your-raspberry-pi-with-raspbian/ Logging http://docs.python.org/2/howto/logging-cookbook.html Tornado - Python webserver that supports Websocket http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2924991/what-popular-webservers-have-support-for-html5-websocket http://lowpowerlab.com/blog/2013/01/17/raspberrypi-websockets-with-python-tornado/ http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11695375/tornado-identify-tra...

warming up

I still don't have all the parts I need to do what I need to do, but I started working with what I had around. I had a 4-digit 7-segment led which I had ordered previously, but for the longest time I had thought I needed additional parts to make it work. It was only today that I realized that that was not the case. Getting some help from this site , I was able to get the digits fired up: This method uses way more wires than this guy (which uses a serial communications protocol called I^2C), but it's good to see it work. I still do want to try the less-wire led setup, as I would like to try playing around with I^2C. In addition, I had recently purchased an Arduino Pro Mini , which contains all the capabilities of the above Arduino Uno but requires pins/connections to be soldered into the board. I had attempted to solder one part of it (the serial/USB connections) a few days ago (note that this was my first attempt ever at soldering), and the USB-to-Serial interface...

chunk update: most parts printed and assembled

currently: stuff that happened are: wired the fingers added screws to necessary assemblies witnessed first failed print during this: servos haven't come yet, but once they do, we can start installing them into the hand/forearm. as always, credit to the Inmoov project.
