Ten Years Ago My Daily Source Code Dried Up

TEN YEARS AGO, in February 2009, the final edition of Adam Curry's Daily Source Code [1] dropped into my iTunes account. There's been nothing like Adam's vibe since. [2]

A few years later, out of the blue came DSC 822, so I'm embedding it here on this blog post. Then I plan to set aside 90 minutes today to listen to this podcast again because it will rewind so many riffs from the sound track of my life. Those are the kinds of things I need to keep close at hand.

Using DJI Go to Live Stream with Wowza #drone

I'M WATCHING Jack Allen's creative multimedia project take a streaming twist as he sets up the DJI Phantom 3 with Wowza Live Streaming services.

Testing Wowza Streaming Cloud

UPDATED AFTER TEST: Wowza Steaming Cloud works with HD video and HQ audio during a live DJI Phantom 3 drone flight.

I AM EXPLORING a way to connect our DJI Phantom 3 drone to RMTP services offered by Wowza Streaming Cloud. In a previous test, we could not get a good digtal video signal to encode on the drone before transcoding on Wowza.

Easily Impressed by Technology that Meshes Nicely #workflow

I LIKE STARTING MY MORNING with A-List journalism and that's why I tap into the Washington Post, New York Times, and The Irish Times. It's part of my workflow now as I use a combination of my Kindle Paperwhite, my Day One Journal, my Brydge keyboard, and my blog.

Two Segments of Irish Productivity

I HAVE WORKING NOTES from conferences I've attended during the past 20 years (like the one pictured in this blog post) that depict Ireland as a country with two separate nodes of productivity. There's productivity in the indigenous sector and there's productivity in the multinational sector.

At My Field Desk #clonmeldigit

I SPEND A LOT OF TIME working in remote locations so I'm grateful for the ease of use I get with my durable Brydge keyboard. It connects to my Note 9 the moment I switch it on with no requirement to push a button or select a setting.

First Touch with Paperwhite #kindle

AMAZON OFFERED REDUCED pricing for the Kindle Paperwhite and I jumped at the opportunity to buy a 32 GB model with its Bluetooth service for the Audible collection I have amassed.

I like the lightweight feel and quick touchscreen responsiveness of the Paperwhite. I don't think I will be using its waterproof capability to read in the bathtub or Jacuzzi.

Icing Over English Channel

BASED ON AVIATION WEATHER forecasts and on a WhatsApp message that described rough flying conditions, it's possible the light aircraft carrying Emiliano Sala encountered in-flight icing conditions before entering an aerodynamic stall. My thoughts are with the families of the pilot Ibbotson and passenger Sala as the accident investigation commences in earnest.
