ZenCoding

I wrote this talk for the Ruby Group tonight, but because of the horrible weather, only one other guy was able to show up. (Thanks Hector!) I'll be doing the talk again in March, and hopefully the weather will be much better. In the meanwhile, I'm too excited about how the slideshow turned out, so I'm releasing it now.

I built the site using ZenCoding (obviously) in Sublime Text 2, and hosted it on Heroku. I used impress.js to put the slideshow together, which was very easy to use.

Innoblue Map

This is a quick experiment I put together to learn how to make force-directed graphs in D3.js. It uses Coffeescript, Haml, Sass, D3.js, and Ruby. You can find the source code here, or visit the graph in action here.

TRS-80 Joystick DIN Pinouts

We did a little bit of experimenting at the end of our monthly Ruby Meetup, and it led to us figuring out which pins corresponded to the axes and the single button on a TRS-80 Joystick. Completely random information, but if anyone out there in Googleland needs this information, I hope you're able to find it here.

1 - Red - Power
2 - White - Button
3 - Black - Ground
4 - Green - Up/Down Axis
5 - Brown - Left/Right Axis
