come back

The last couple of weeks have been quite refreshing.

The drive for learning and trying out new things has never been higher.

Currently fascinated with Node.js; Javascript truly isn't the make-a-website-pretty script I had known anymore. 

Playing around with back-end and front-end frameworks. Currently playing around with Sails.js, and once I get used to that, I am looking forward to trying out Angular.JS as a front-end framework.

Other than that, currently have couple of other random APIs (non-Node.js) I would like to play around with, but I'm just keeping them up in my browser tabs to that I'll get to them eventually.

In addition, I reviewed the Android Developer tutorial again--hoping to try making something in that end as well.

dabbling with cylon

I'm playing around with Cylon JS whenever I have the time. in order to use the leap motion for control, the hand control will need to communicate with the pc that is connected to the leap motion device (leap motion does not provide an arm/linux driver). it seems that Cylon devices can communicate with each other through socket.io or http, and I am currently playing around with that.

nodejs migration

Having been playing around with NodeJS recently,  I (naturally?) started re-writing some of the OpenSesame code using Node last night. I think I've only worked on it around 2 hours so far, but I've already set up a basic client interface (a socket.io chat tutorial rip) with a server that the Raspberry Pi can connect to and receive requests to open the door.  This is probably due to socket.io's socket management (socket.io is the WebSocket module for Node); for my first implementation, I had to manually write up a structure that managed sockets, but that is pretty much handled by socket.io. Also, the servo control logic is pretty much recycled (and the Raspberry Pi code is still Python), and I do remember spending some good time figuring that out.  Cool neverthelss. I'll probably keep both versions around.

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.
