I'm really not a conspiracy theorist. I don't truly believe that Microsoft embodies all things evil. But after the announcement of GitHub's purchase by Microsoft, I still decided to move away from GitHub and copy all my repositories over to GitLab.
I had several choices when making the move from …

Today's update is pretty basic. Just cleaning up and filling in some blanks on my JustChess app. While I wont bore you with the whole commit, you are welcome to check it out.
Basically, I just added an about and settings page. Both pages are pretty basic, but the settings …

Apparently, in 1988, World Champion Gary Kasparov accidentally stalemated his opponent during a blitz tournament in Canada. Mr. Kasparov had a king, queen, and a bishop against Kiril Dimitrov Georgiev's lone king. The problem Mr. Kasparov was facing was that of time running out. In his efforts to move quicker …
Last week, when we looked at my code for the BlueFruit autostart, we came to realize that if it did not know that the truck was started, it would continue to crank, even if it was running. This is not good. Thinking about it, it seemed obvious that a simple …
Well, more specifically, suggestions, computer?
One of the cool things about having the built in JustChessEngine in my JustChess app, is the option to have the engine suggest a move for you. Of course, my engine has an elo rating below 300, so I'm not sure that I would take …
That's right! My latest project is to turn my BlueFruit Feather into a functioning autostart for my old '93 pickup. Looking back at my project prep posts, you will now hopefully understand what I was trying to test and learn from those experiments. The great thing about this project is …

There were several computer GUI systems invented already, but the first (to the best of my knowledge, correct me if I'm wrong) computer GUI that would highlight your move options after selecting a piece was that of "Daly CP". It was a …
A user of my open source app, JustNotes, made an interesting observation... if your note gets too long, you can't read it because it goes below the keyboard and you can't scroll it upward. You can read the bug tracker issue on my GitHub for the full story. This is …
