I write about things that interest me here. You can find posts ranging from programming to photography to music to really anything I find interesting.

2023-04-29 - Whoops, I broke my weather vane
I am working on my weatherstation project now, and I’m going to finish it for real! Yesterday I was opening up the weather-vane to reverse-engineer the board it has and make sure what I already know is correct.
2023-04-16 - Planning PWS Hardware
It has been a dream of mine to create my own personal weather station (PWS). I’ve been working on this project for over 6 years now. Due to school and scope creep: I have not been able to complete this project.
2023-02-26 - Organizing My Life
I have always been bad at organizing my life. It can be hard for me to know what to do and when to do it. This is a particularly big problem for me because of executive disfunction.
2023-02-14 - How I deploy to my server
I don’t run this capsule on a server that I physically own. I rent out my server from digitalocean. Since my server doesn’t need to have lots of computing power or memory, I have opted to use the cheapest server possible that pennies can buy.
I have been getting fairly ambitious with ideas for my capsule. This is dangerous with me being in the middle of a heavy semester, so I am going to write down my plans and implement them later.
I just finished the third project for my security class. This project has been simultaneously the most difficult and most easy lab that I have done. I wanted to describe my experience of the lab here.
I find it funny that I chose to start a gemlog right as school started. I was fully expecting to be able to put out more content than I have so far, but that’s ok. School should probably have a higher priority than my hobbies.
2023-01-06 - Trying out my own gemlog
I am by no means a writer. I may have grown up a native english speaker, but my words don’t reflect that. I have always gotten a C or worse in my english classes, and writing essays has always been an arduous task for me.
While I was browsing thingiverse, and I found a cool model for the moon. It has both a bump map for the surface–giving the texture of the moon with all of its craters–and a bump map for the darkness on the moon, which is on the inside of the model.
2018-05-24 - Weatherstation: Charging Circuit
One of the big things on the to-do list is a charging circuit. I need a charging circuit to allow the solar panel to charge the battery. Lucky for me, the Arduino Feather 32u4 has a built-in charging circuit, but then why would I need a charging circuit?
