Worklog: got the last bit of UI done on Melody Generator subscription updates. I think I might be able to ship this Monday. 🤞

Worklog: busy day hacking on different projects.
https://tweetfeast.com: Monitoring script.
https://hostedgitea.com: Upgraded all machines. Wrote a script to test post-upgrade functionality.
https://dopeloop.ai/melody-generator: muting functionality.
https://github.com/chr15m/sitefox: bugfix + shipped a release.

@b0rk @simon Please excuse my @@ but since you have both written about building web frontends without complex tooling I thought you might like this wee open source tool I made to support the zero-build-system workflow and give you live-reloading in the process. Anyway, hopefully it will be useful! Thank you for your time. 🙏

Worklog: excellent progress on https://dopeloop.ai/melody-generator today. Currently 5 issues until I can ship the new version.

Worklog: continuing progress on Melody Generator. Looking forward to cutting a release. Hopefully by the end of the month.

Also tinkered a bit with generating sprites again. Started putting together a bit of a website to showcase what I've found. Not sure about this. 

Worklog: got multi-melody playback working in the Melody Generator UI. \o/

Worklog: automating custom domain config on https://hostedgitea.com and then tinkered with sending Bluetooth LE ad packets between devices for music app sync research.

Worklog: Wednesday I discovered Pd on Linux can now run win32 VSTs and soundfonts. 🤯 Futzed around with synthesizers all day long.
Today: upgraded all https://hostedgitea.com boxes and enabled Gitea Actions on them.
Worked on the Melody Generator multi-melody feature both days.

Worklog: spent all day repeatedly trying to shepherd my focus back to an unpleasant modification to the Melody Generator codebase (i.e. a hack) which will enable the "multiple simultaneous melodies" feature. Been avoiding this change for 3 years. 😅

Worklog: spent a couple of days working on Melody Generator save functionality.

Worklog: (Wednesday) Implemented saving and loading of melodies on Melody Generator.

Worklog: (Monday) Experimenting with generating and auto-slicing game assets. Not entirely sure where this is going but it's fun to tinker with.

👋 Hello! I'm very excited to announce the release of https://livereload.net! 🎉

🎁 It's a simple utility you can use to do live-reloading web dev without complicated build tooling. Just drag your project on to the page to start.

Worklog: down with the flu for several days. Managed to eke out some progress on Melody Generator, https://hostedgitea.com, and getting web live reloader ready for launch.

Worklog: spent yesterday hyperfocused on the browser based live reloading web dev experiment. Will release this soon.

Poll. If you made a browser based tool to help people do live-reloading web development without command line, which domain name would you give it?

Worklog: Saturday tinkering with the browser based live reloader experiment.
Finally did some database maintenance on https://rogule.com - there were 91k games played in March and there are currently 1.5k games played per day, so the database has swollen to 1.9 Gb!

Worklog: bug fixes on https://dopeloop.ai/melody-generator and mocking out the Pro version UI and upgrade flow.

Also hacked a bit on the browser based live reloading dev experiment I've been tinkering with. I guess this is the nephew of slingcode dot net.
