Brewed By Us - A site for homebrewers
Once again there is a chill in the air. The winter brewing season is here! I’ve never been very good at keeping journals for my various hobbies. No woodworking project journal, bee journal is all voice recordings and blog posts, and brewing has previously been notes on the recipe paper. I’ve always been very good at taking notes and documenting software projects, but that is what I do for a living.
My brewing will get a bit more methodical thanks to BrewedByUs.com – a homebrewing site with recipes and journals. The site was brainstormed over pizza. Sadly, my workload prevented me from being able to help with the initial implementation, but Mark Lavin has done an amazing job laying the foundation. I’ve recently joined him to help with continued development. There are many great improvements planned and we’ve had a lot of good feedback from the many fellow homebrewers on Google Plus.

Auto-enabling Textpattern Plugins
Upload plugin. View the code and help. Scroll. Click “submit”. Scroll. Click “No” to enable plugin. I’ve repeated this pattern way to often whenever I set up or update a Textpattern based site. No more.

Welcome null!
Seems like Verizon needs to do a better job with checking data that is outputted on their website. Apparently, I no longer have a name.

The Battery Goes Pop!
On a few separate occasions, Alissa or I have heard a single load popping noise from an unknown and untraceable source. Turns out that the popping noise was caused by batteries literally exploding. I wouldn’t have known if it wasn’t for a 9v battery on my desk busting its case with a single loud pop. Fortunately, I had a protective shield of miscellaneous papers, tools and other junk that has been piling up. Coincidentally, the expiration printed on the battery is March 2011.
