Sneak Peek and Update
🕑 Added 2017-12-22 18:39:41 +0000 UTC Hellooo I'm still alive. I've been writing code the past couple days for a project started before the house burned down. It's the second in our TDAFIBWMIASITTA series (they didn't ask for it but we made it and sent it to them anyways). Most everything was burned, but I grabbed the main piece we had spent that entire day building :)Everything, plus some replacement Arduinos, have been re-ordered, and Make Ventura (local maker-space) gave us keys to their shop. Side note; I spent like 3 hours yesterday trying to install FTDI drivers for the Arduino knockoffs I bought but they were actually using CH340 chips soooooo yeahh...
It's one of the more complicated projects I've done in a while, plus my house burned down so I'm not exactly sure what our timeline on this one is.
Currently I'm in Texas with family (trip planned before fire), but back home we're living in a hotel with my parents. Inspectors have said the insulation in the house needs to be replaced due to asbestos/lead carried in by smoke from all the burned houses. I've heard that may even include wall insulation, which means the house won't be habitable for several months. Basically I'm 90% sure we're spending Christmas in a hotel! hah.
Chelsea and I are looking into buying a house though, so hopefully we can start rebuilding RetinaSmelter
Also I've re-ordered replacement stickers and cattoos!!
That's it! This update is a spicy mess :P

So I glanced through the code, and I can't get the image out of my head of a Sorting Hat style talking beanie for H3. Good luck, hopefully your time finding a house can be as stress free as possible!

Btw, here's a super handy utility to calculate your weight (or the weight of anything) in bees. More useful than metric and imperial, IMHO. I'm currently around 38,500 bees, aiming for around 36,750 bees by spring time.

At first I thought you meant the insulation needs to be replaced in your house and I was like... wat? Then I twigged lol. Super catchy name for the series btw, like it a lot. Do you have a PO box btw? I want to send you something - Might be a week or two before I get it posted though :)
