A simple menu system using python for the Terminal (Framebufer)
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# Topmenu and the submenus are based of the example found at this location http://blog.skeltonnetworks.com/2010/03/python-curses-custom-menu/
# The rest of the work was done by Matthew Bennett and he requests you keep these two mentions when you reuse the code :-)
# Basic code refactoring by Andrew Scheller
from time import sleep
import curses, os #curses is the interface for capturing key presses on the menu, os launches the files
screen = curses.initscr() #initializes a new window for capturing key presses
curses.noecho() # Disables automatic echoing of key presses (prevents program from input each key twice)

good APIs for mashups

This list has been superseded by Public APIs. Check there for APIs with Auth: No, HTTPS and CORS Yes.


List of data APIs that require no server-side auth or private credentials, and are thus good for small browser-only JS projects.

volsay: Wrapper around OSX's `say' command, which sets the system volume to the requested level, then restores volume / mute state once speech is complete.

The other reasons F.A.T. Lab died.

Today F.A.T. Lab shut its doors with this lovely note from Magnus Eriksson and Evan Roth.

But the "we lost to them" narrative is only one perspective. As a "virtual research fellow" since 2011, I had the opportunity to both look up to F.A.T. as an outsider for its first half, and get the inside scoop for the second half. But my first project appears on page 20 of the blog's 200+ pages. With that in mind, here are some other stories about why F.A.T. "lost":

  1. F.A.T. lost its rowdy juvenile edge when almost everyone got married, had kids, got (mostly) real jobs. The biggest producers from early F.A.T. effectively "retired" from producing F.A.T.-style work.
  2. There was not enough new energy to replace these retired members. To fix this, sometimes a member would propose adding someone. Inevitably, someone else would suggest they "weren't F.A.T. enough", or just thinking about how many inactive members we had, and how much of a boys club it was, would get us down and discussion woul
