Situation

For my tiny blog (engine) based on node, express/connect and mongojs I needed a simple rss feed solution. I discovered and decided to go with the nice working npm module node-rss instead of writing xml myself.

What this code example does

Basically I create an get event on route /feed/rss, generate a node-rss object initialized with base values and add item elements to it while looping over a mongojs collection result array (holding my post items to be reflected). Finally I send a response with an appropriate content type header. My example is directly bound to an express get event callback for a simple static request path, but you may of course move it to route exports or whatever.

Notes

No big deal, but you might find this portion of code useful as a starting point when seeking for rss solutions.

do androids dream of cooking?

The following recipes are sampled from a trained neural net. You can find the repo to train your own neural net here: https://github.com/karpathy/char-rnn Thanks to Andrej Karpathy for the great code! It's really easy to setup.

The recipes I used for training the char-rnn are from a recipe collection called ffts.com And here is the actual zipped data (uncompressed ~35 MB) I used for training.

It seems to be in a format intended to be read by a program called Meal-Master, therefore you will see those lines repeated all over:

The Way of the Bullet Journal

This technique is a tool. While I can't say the bullet journal is the best for everyone, I can say that learning to export data from your brain to other systems is essential for being a creative and productive human being. If you walk away from this unenthused by the bullet journal approach, I encourage you to still take seriously the habits it helps promote.

You are a student. You have code to write. Jobs to find. Bills to pay. Life to figure out. Friends and family to love and occasionally say hello to.

All this is to say: you have too much to do for your brain to handle all by itself.

There are many productivity tools that help alleviate overload of the brain. I do not promise this technique will save you, or even remotely help you, but I do promise to provide you with the information you need to get started and decide if it's right for you.
