I'm making videos about the work and posting them to GooTube. Total newb stuff, but I'm having fun.

Progress on the Twenty Tiny Memex by 2022 project is slow but steady. I made a "size and shape" model to figure out whether I like how it feels. Now I'm back in CAD working on the input and display electronics assemblies.
Yep. Still making stuff.
I had a fun day in the shop getting everything dialed in to make a polishing tool for wearable lenses.
Honestly, I'm still tired from last Tuesday.

The OSS bubble that is and the blogging bubble that was – Baldur Bjarnason
“The biggest problem—and this isn’t limited to web development—is how it has baked exploitation into the core worldview of so many people.”
Me, on the OSS bubble in web dev https://www.baldurbjarnason.com/2021/the-oss-bubble-and-the-blogging-bubble/
The Transmutable Swan is now OSHWA certified to be genuine open hardware; my first project to join that prestigious company but certainly not the last.

A person lashed out at me on birdsite for posting job openings (at a co where I don't work) for senior roles for which (as a newly minted CS BS) they aren't qualified. Dog speed, angry young spaceman.

Hey, I got my art website back up to date finally! Check out http://art.joshmillard.com/ where can browse through my work from the last few years in oil and watercolor painting, stained glass, linocut prints, and my recent dive into plotter drawings.
What a time to be timing attacked.
It's Monday which means that it's once again time to put out the call for news items for tomorrow's W3C Immersive Web Weekly: 📯
Did you see a neat new WebXR experience?
Did something big happen that needs coverage?
Reply with links and I'll take a look!

Hey immersive web folks,
Running a one-day event about all of WebXR development is somewhat impossible because there's so much going on.
I'm hosting an open town hall *this Sunday* to discuss which topics and voices should to be heard in the WebXR Developer Summit on May 25th.

You might think from this screenshot that I've drawn even a single shape in this CAD file, but no. I'm just randomly moving around cells in a spreadsheet as a form of procrasta-planning.
I just pushed "publish" on issue 48 of the Immersive Web Weekly. I usually tweet out several topics that I covered in an issue but this week can be summed up as "🎉 OMG A Fully FOSS Stack 🎉" while imaging a gif of myself dancing on clouds.

The RealTime Conference happens today and for two more days. Tickets are free and there are *many* sessions that are relevant to the #widerweb. Sadly, I scanned the speakers' page and recognized nobody who works directly on web standards. 🤦♀️

Whelp, I tweeted about my next project (Augs by Transmutable tm) and now I feel like I'm livestreaming my underwear drawer and claiming to have superpowers. #anxiety #perfectionism
