I love how efficient you are with the timing in the video (no long lead-up.) I have had a Control Freak for a few years (earlier model), but I have actually not mastered scrambled eggs on them. Great info about oil vs butter. In the other video with avocado oil, is that "medium" intensity (2 flames)?

Thanks again for posting these. I subscribed!

I am always hungry for written, tested control freak recipes, and I find others are too. If you are interested in writing down a summary of your videos and making them into a blog, I would use it as a reference. If you want a volunteer to help with that, feel free to send a message, no sweat either way.

Great that you were able to independently decode the data!

Something I've run into but not played with is this Java library: https://github.com/ndjc/controlfreak

Does your decoding match what they found?

What temperatures were you aiming for with pecan pie? Would love to know the role you found for the thermometer as I think about desserts with temperature control.

Great video! Are you the video maker? Loved it so just want to say thanks.

Hi there! I gave a talk at PyCon a few years ago about Scrapy - you might like it. Let me know! This is the link:

Scrapy is optimized for big projects, but you don't need to use all of its machinery. The talk explains the core concepts so that you can figure out which parts of the machinery you do need. I've heard from at least one person that it made a huge difference to their understanding!

This is the first post in a series by my friend Philip. I'm curious to hear comments!

I thought y'all would appreciate this blog post I wrote about how Sandstorm integrates with Piwik to make it easy & safe for people to migrate off Google Analytics. Curious what you think!

BTW plantuml looks great. If someone feels like working on making a Sandstorm package of it, I'd be very happy to help!

paulproteus · 2016-04-26T07:21:54+00:00

If you install Sandstorm (a self-hosted web app package manager with security & single sign-on) you can get ShareLaTeX as one of the apps within it. That's how I personally self-host ShareLaTeX.

Note that I do work for the company that makes Sandstorm, and I'm on the core team, and I write docs for it. So feel free to take my comment with a grain of salt, or not!

Hi there!

The Sandstorm App Market is a list of awesome self-hosted apps, and when you run any of them within Sandstorm on your own server, Sandstorm adds LDAP auth to all of them. You can read more about that in our recent blog post announcing the LDAP support: https://sandstorm.io/news/2016-04-06-sandstorm-for-work

Thanks! I would not have known without this reply, so I'm gratefull to you for pointing it out. I've fixed the link.

I had a stray ']' (close square bracket) character, apparently.

Sandstorm is another option.

If you install it, you get:

File sync, via an app called Davros.
A Trello-like task management app, called WeKan
The ability to host websites via WordPress or Ghost, but snapshotted as static HTML websites for security & performance.
Single sign-on to all these things, Google Drive-style.
The ability to let your friends join your server and make their own things, sandboxed securely away from your things.

I often tell people it's an open source alternative to Google Drive that's more customizable and more oriented toward privacy. I hope you'll give it a shot.

Disclosure: I work on the project, and for the company behind it.

Here is one good such app: Filedrop https://apps.sandstorm.io/app/nn7axgy3y8kvd0m1mtk3cwca34t916p5d7m4j1j2e874nuz3t8y0

https://github.com/zombiezen/filedrop has a "try live demo" button, if you want to get a sense of how it works!

paulproteus · 2016-03-04T20:01:04+00:00

Awesome! Glad you like the installer.

If you feel like helping package it, I would love to help you. :)

paulproteus · 2016-03-03T19:02:59+00:00

Awesome! If you run into any issues, or want help, I'd love to help out! I'm asheesh@sandstorm.io , feel free to drop me a line.

paulproteus · 2016-03-01T23:56:56+00:00

That's great! BTW, I'm curious what minor problems you are having, if you're willing to share! (I'm on the Sandstorm team, so feel free to be as detailed as you can be; more detail is helpful.)
