Like many programmers right now I am interested in machine learning etc...And, as usual, I like to kind of re-invent the wheel when I'm building things for myself. It's more fun for and I get to learn a bit more about what's actually happening.

Newton's Cannon
Newton's cannonball was a thought experiment Isaac Newton used to hypothesize that the force of gravity was universal...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton%27s_cannonball
The cannon fires a ball that falls to earth. The cannon adds some power to the next shot and the cannonball goes a bit farther. Eventually the ball flies with enough velocity to break the planets gravity and falls into orbit. The ball literally falls around the planet indefinitely.
SVG Preloader with Javascript
I am currently working on a CRM that will be including a feature to display statistics on a large screen.
A feature I proposed was a nice animated timer to display when each module would update.
This timer should be dynamic and should have the ability to have easy set parameters; update time, color, etc...
So anyways, this is what I came up with: SVG-Preloader GitHub Repo.
Basic usage is quite simple:
Something Good From A Mistake
I accidentally created a pattern that somewhat resembles a fractal in a bug making Battlezone a few days ago.
Whoa - Accidental Fractal..."ish"
I was attempting to add a cracked windshield to the player tank in my Battlezone remake built in Javascript. I wanted to built the crack procedurally and it's "working". But it's not very believable as a cracked windshield just yet. I was able to add a pretty cool effect that shakes the screen but, the cracked windshield currently either resembles fractured rock or in many cases modern art.
Homepage Animation Block For Drupal 8
Many websites have an animation of some kind running on the homepage. My website is no exception however, I like to experiment with different animations and such and I am sure I will want to regularly swap them out. I could simply dump in a new file whenever I want to make a change but, I like to design things that are a little more elegant. Something that might be used by other people in the real world. So, I built this simple module.
Simple Animation using SVG and Javascript
Just playing around with using SVG for web animation versus Canvas.
I see some interesting things built using Green Sock that I think I can reproduce myself.
Maybe I will add SVG support as an out-of-the-box feature in Wes Mantooth.
Battlezone in Javascript - TODO List
This is a TODO list of tasks for a Javascript web-browser playable version of the classic Atari game Battlezone.

The game is coming along nicely. I have a playable demo here.
