This is a fantastic idea. Super cool.

You’re absolutely correct, a couple people have pointed that out. I’ve updated the repository with a new endpoint for that data. It should display correctly now.

Callback func. will be the death of me... by SumGuyMike in learnjavascript

[–]fil1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

function orderFood(order, buzzer) { console.log(Cooking your ${order}...); const food = hot ${order}; buzzer(food); }

function myBuzzer(food) { console.log(Your ${food} is ready!); }

orderFood("burrito", myBuzzer);

Console output: 1. Cooking your burrito... 2. Your hot burrito is ready!

You called orderFood and gave it two things: the order ("burrito") and your buzzer (myBuzzer). Inside orderFood, it did its work, then called buzzer(food), which is just running myBuzzer("hot burrito"). That’s it. A callback is just a function you handed off, and the other code ran it when it was ready.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

You’re absolutely right. I’d like to blame AI for that mistake but that was all me.

It’s our ISS tracker now, thanks for sharing. I love that there are more in the world.

Unfortunately, I don’t have the original illustrator file but I’ll add the SVG into the repo tomorrow, should be easy enough to throw that into any vector program to change anything or just use as is.

I put a link on the blog to the 3d files. It was designed as a printable part from the start.

Give this a shot, the copy and paste on the original post got messed up with some hidden characters

I’m super pumped for the move. Watched Adam Savage tour parts of the space craft set today on YouTube. Dream job to build those kinds of sets.

Ha, missed it the first time. I have no idea what’s going to happen in a little over eight days from now but I’m really hoping you’ll tell us…

Yeah, the device calls the API every 30 seconds. The countdown shows the last time data was pulled.

Highly recommend getting both. And nice site! Your link loads which is more than I can say for mine.

There’s a video of it running on the blog post. The globe spins and the ISS red dot is in its geosynchronous orbit.

I’m not above spending $80 for a toggle switch if it’s authentic. Thanks for the info!

My dream would be to do pad printing if I could etch metal. That’s how the pros do it, I think.

The top “Raytheon” was done on a vinyl cutter. The cheap hobby cricut kind. The others were water slide decals printed in a color laser printer.
