Ok, may as well announce it here too, introducing Cerebelle (@cerebelleapp):
Cerebelle is your mobile bio-signal/motion data processing lab and research study distribution app for mobile first EEG/EMG/EOG/IMU studies in general BCI/sleep/dream research modalities on iPad & iOS.

One particular section in this article by @Saraphinn is an experience that I have when lucid dreaming: conversing & interacting with a character/entity that is a benevolent teacher. There's a clear in-dream distinction between yourself (inner monologue voice) vs. "it". But...

Amazing write-up by @Saraphinn Re: lucid dreaming, VR, olfactory (essential oil) triggers... great article references, and very much in line with some experimental modalities that I hope to be able to model and execute in mobile studies w/ Cerebelle.

My "It" talks and also writes and draws in a very particular way. I've experienced this in other ways: I'm allergic to diphenhydramine and can see the "It's" writing as if embossed on plain walls when I stare at it when having the allergic reaction. All I need is a blank surface

There is a lot of "pain" involved in learning difficult subjects especially in engineering. When learning something to use it in an applied manner there are necessary cycles of pain => fun. It can't/shouldn't always be fun & there is a reason for this based on how brains work...

All of this makes me think of how the public education in K-12 in the us needs to be revamped to account for different learning styles in students. Whether self-directed or guided, the current focus on rote memory & recall over conceptual absorption & understanding hurts us.

I understand that budget & class size has an influence over how much time a teacher can dedicate to individual students, the whole system needs an overhaul. But a shift to assessing students learning style, early in the process, and having multiple class models would only help

This afternoon I decided to write a second app using Focus, the framework I'm building for the Open Book. This project tracker app for the @Adafruit MagTag demonstrates Views, ViewControllers, Actions and much more; still a ways to go, but it feels usable! gist.github.com/joeycastillo…

Cool use of an Arduino Teensy as game controller for iOS
19 Jun 2022
Wanted to make your own game controller that works on iOS? You probably ran into issues since Apple requires them to be MFi certified. There is a way though! No jailbreak required ;)
Here it is running on my iPad with IPadOS 15.5. I’m using a Teensy LC for it.

A usage of visual language state machines driving the functionality, interface is beautiful
20 Jun 2022
Using Rive's State Machine to create a totally functional design component.
🚀 Ships directly to the Web, iOS, Android, Flutter, React Native, and more! @rive_app

So beautiful & ominous at the same time 🤯

It looks like an apocalyptic mist descending,
This is a roll cloud, often near the leading edge or gust fronts of thunderstorms, sinking cold air causes warm air to rise and condense
‘Rolling’ parallel to the horizon, pushed by winds from the storm 1/

Complexity is unattractive to the job market. They want you to be a cog they can easily put into a machine - a specialist with clearly defined boundaries.
They will want you to give up what makes you special - and you can't let that happen.

I have a real soft spot for metaprogramming, which means I'm always trying to reconcile "metaprogramming is so cool" with "ruby and scala tried it and it sucked".
My current idea: metaprogramming should only be used in metaprograms, which take programs as input
