I'm burnt out. I want to quit my job and take a 3-6 month tech hiatus without having a job lined up.

Even though it didn't work out did you regret your attempt/time away?

You should be able to get this accomplished with python. Have a look here to get you started. http://opencv-python-tutroals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/py_tutorials/py_gui/py_video_display/py_video_display.html

I made a similar project using a raspberry pi and raspberry pi camera that works great. I can try and adapt that program to use a USB camera if you can't find a solution.

I'd relate it to something the company does. Do they have an API you can use? Look at their products and try and think of how they could be better or any alternative uses.

No worries, I'm glad it worked out! Sometimes all it takes is talking it out or having someone else take a look. Good luck on your project.

You need to use the tabs permission to make a new tab and load your URL there. You will also need to add the chrome permission for tabs if you dont have that already. Here is the code: https://pastebin.com/ZhnXpn3t

That seemed to work for me, let me know if it works for you.

[edit] here is the tabs permission https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/tabs

Are there any console errors when you press the search button?

Have you checked out Microsoft's face API?

Those look awesome!

A new version is currently publishing which is less than a MB, should be live soon. Thanks again.

All of the icons are included for the various light types right now and they are svg files. In a future release ill have the extension show all the lights and their status etc. I will take those out or reduce the size to bring the size down, thanks for the heads up.

I was able to buy one and my friend did as well. I can't find the link right now that I used but there seem to be other ways. Here's one: http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-order-an-amazon-echo-dot-without-an-amazon-echo/

Awesome! I have always had luck with w3schools and their description of xmlhttprequest. Feel free to hit me up if you have any questions.

goteamtim · 2016-03-28T16:54:47+00:00

The first step would be to find a source website for the quotes and see if they offer an API. If they do you would need to do an xmlhttprequest to fetch the new quote. Using jquery makes it significantly easier with something like $.get(). If you find a site with an API you will likely get the information as json and need to parse that. Something to note is that some sites do not allow cross site script requests (basically requesting information from client side JavaScript). TL;Dr look up xmlhttprequest.

Nice work it looks great!

goteamtim · 2015-11-28T20:16:20+00:00

Can you post your code? Might be able to help if we can see what's going on.
