Unfortunately it looks like the Buoy Cam in Portsmouth NH for the Gulf of Maine has been disabled. I've removed that buoy from @MaineBuoys.

The other buoys are still reporting as normal.

After a short period of downtime @MaineBuoys is back online! Diligently posting information and pictures from buoys off the coast of Maine 3 times an hour!

Hot off the press, a blog post discussing environment configurable vs environment agnostic applications, and how to write applications that require less configuration between environments.

Started a new Twitter bot for a quick project: @MaineBuoys. We'll be tweeting out pictures and information from Buoys off the #coast of #Maine.

Not quite ready to go live yet, but soon!

Thanks to @less_soft_bird for figuring out the Twitter bot ban https://t.co/PHqd1uQP4i

@SomersetLog & @MainePowerStats are back online, albeit with some Tweet restrictions because the #API is unaffordable for hobbyists.

Just finished a short blogpost on #Microservices and #scalable #systems using the #NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day API. All the code is in GitHub and the links are in the blog post.

@PeterJirak @nVisium The simple answer is you shouldn't keep your password manager on the same device you keep your 2fa app, for the same reason you shouldn't keep your 2fa codes in your password manager. You're re-creating the problem 2fa was designed to fix with requiring two separate methods.

@BettermentHelp @Betterment After making this tweet I've received an email from a supervisor stating that I'll get the form I need on Monday, so hopefully this will be sorted then. 🤞

[Shawn🐔 @SpiralingHelix]

@BettermentHelp after being a loyal customer for over 5 years it is unacceptable that you are making it overtly difficult to rollover my money out of @Betterment. You did not follow the instructions that I mailed in and your phone support refuses to allow me to escalate the issue
