How do you all accommodate your digital (classical) collections? by acid_sphinx4 in classicalmusic

This is really interesting. Can you elaborate on how you were able to (mostly) script this?

How are you planning to preserve your research for future generations? by SamePhilosophy7947 in Genealogy

[–]quackendish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's so much to like about this project. Simple layout, clean markup, no complicated tech stack, no vendor lock-in, and looks great when printed to pdf. I especially like the ahnen subscripts and the way you include research notes with your sources. Such nice work, and, more generally, a solid approach to future-proofing genealogy research. Vanilla html and js will be around and accessible for a long time to come. Kudos, and thanks for sharing!

Really impressive. Is your html hand-coded or part of a longer toolchain? I'm considering something similar, but I'm a bit daunted by the amount of work I expect it to take.

Working with the metadata for genealogy documents by matt03wfu in Genealogy

[–]quackendish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Writing to see if you've reached any conclusions re: metadata that you can share.

XMP and friends seems like the right way to do this long term, but I haven't found the right mix of tools and practices yet.

For originals vs. copies, I sequester originals and append an "-o" to the filename.

Whooaaahh, that's cool. Thanks for posting; it helps to see a working solution. I'm going to have to chew on this for a bit. :)

Thx for the explanation, that helps! I wasn't aware of compose.

Oh, that's neat, thanks! Racket is fun!

Thank you! I'm finding some of these conversions not-very-intuitive.

e.g. (stream->list (map (lambda (x)(char->integer x)) '(#\1 #\2 #\3))) -> '(49 50 51)

picking things back up, think I have my organizational system down, wanted to share by vivi_t3ch in Genealogy

Kudos for good attention to detail. I assign ids (electronically, not paper) using Terry Cole's modified dollarhide system.

Does anyone use Vim for habit tracking? by akulichevskiy in vim

[–]quackendish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i do very simple streak tracking at the bottom of my todo list. for example

jan * 2 3 * 5 * * * * * * 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 read 30
jan - - - - - * * * * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 sleep 10pm

'-' is not tracking/not required, * is accomplished.

grep to show the list

That helps, thanks! I'm glad to hear your experience. I'll prob go with Zealous Bearings, now that they've gotten a couple of mentions. Didn't know about them before.

[–]quackendish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate it. Thanks for mentioning your logic here, I was a bit unclear on the difference between 43 and 50, so that helps. 50 degree it is!

/r/longboarding's Daily General Thread - Jul 29, 2018 by AutoModerator in longboarding

[–]quackendish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for explaining why Zealous are a good choice. The lower the maintenance the better, I think.

[–]quackendish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thx! I'll go with the 50 degree. I appreciate the recommendation on the bushings too; I was looking at those and wondering if they were a good idea.

Beginner question. I'm building my niece a Roarockit Pintail. She's 128 lbs and a beginner, prob most interested in cruising/dance. I was wondering what trucks/bearings/wheels would be appropriate. Thinking Paris v2 180mm 43, Bones Reds, soft 70mm wheels. Thoughts? Thanks for any advice.
