Depending on your definition of space, this is what the Earth To Sky does to finance their helium balloons runs: https://www.earthtosky.store/about. I got a pendant for my partner, it was a nice gift.
Pet peeve: I really wish they would stop using fisheye lenses for things like this. The horizon does not look anywhere near that curved at that altitude.
Your username betrays you, because this is indeed a good idea. Thank you for sharing! I'd never heard of this, but now have some cool gift ideas for family & friends. :)
I would be interested to learn a bit more on the how after reading also [0] and the worlk done on patching the Ableton Move firmware with the Schwung [1]. Slightly different but there is an increasing amount of work done on either old hardware and new one exploring patching, swapping or developing new firmware from scratch thanks to LLM/GenAI currently.
The interesting part is deployment. Deploying Julia is still in flux, and especially tricky for realtime audio. I wanna do a proper write up one day, with slides and GitHub code. Perhaps as a JuliaCon talk or local meetup.
I find that DSP tends to look like procedural C code in any language. It should be straightforward to port your C++/Rust directly to Julia, and the ergonomics are much improved (especially around AutoDiff!). See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvnDr9nnOZs
Here's my older talk on audio processing with Julia. The code still works, if you change the deprecated functionality for the new equivalents covered in the docs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DfVowNFI2c
Urushi has been going through a revival in fountain pen and watches (dials) the last five years. There is also more and more amateurs having access to urushi and learning it as a hobby.
I had the exact reaction to be honest. And after reading the page, I am not even sure if this is an RSS reader as I would expect one to be.
I would guess you have some agents doing some summary of some sort of, pushing something to your knowledge graph/database/obsidian, or is it a good time to revive RSS as another way to trigger some agentic system based on publications and pulling every now and then?
There is a lot of way and the most common is shiny (https://shiny.posit.co/) but with a biais towards data app. Not having a Django-like or others web stack python may have talks more about the users of R than the language per se. Its background was to replace S which was a proprietary statistics language not to enter competition with Perl used in CGI and early web. R is very powerful and is Lisp in disguise coupled with the same infrastructure that let you use C under the hood like python for most libraries/packages.

I tried Shiny a few years back and frankly it was not good enough to be considered. Maybe it's matured since then--I'll give it another look.

I'm aware, but that doesn't address the problem I pointed out in any way.

Things I don't want to ever do: use C to write a program that displays my R data to the web.
