Re:The Compact Calendar 2023-2024 on Friday October 13, 2023 @01:55PM (#37873480)
I always liked this compact linear calendar format for planning and estimating. I use it often, with weeks on the left, and my list of tasks on the right.

I wrote a command-line app similar to `cal` to generate them in simple plain text: https://npmjs.com/package/calx

`calx 2024` will give you next year’s calendar.

> the square brackets syntax with the RDF data

Can you give an example?

I picked the current Turtle syntax because it seemed like the least line noise, and hopefully easy for contributors to understand. I would like to learn more about RDF. I don’t know if it was the right choice for this project to be honest though, I might end up switching to JSON.

Many MIDI instruments, effects, and modules released recently transmit MIDI over TRS or TS minijack cables. But, the specs they use vary, and are not always documented.

The more I tried to learn about TRS MIDI, the more confused I got, so I started taking notes with the intent to explain it to others as a reference guide.

I organized what data I could find online about these devices from sources like https://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3168946, along with my own research, and put together this web UI (https://minimidi.world) to search it.

I‘m also publishing the data under a public domain license: https://github.com/audionerd/minimidi-data

I’m trying to be thoughtful about respecting users time and privacy with my choices for this microsite, so I'm trying a few experiments:

- one sponsor per month with a single, non-obnoxious banner

- unobtrusive affiliate advertising with simple, helpful links

- no tracking cookies (no google analytics)

- data is open for others to use and improve
