I've been experimenting with PLY and was encountering an obscure
error that was surprisingly Google-resistant. I've been building up a language
and a REPL to interpret commands. When trying to parse a statement spanning multiple lines,

"Ohio is the only state not to share a letter with the word mackerel" my buddy tells me.
Of course, I need to find out what other words don't share any letters with states. So I start hunting for a large English dictionary. It turns out the Brown corpus, included …

It's currently way slow, but I suspect there is substantial room for improvement there. Wrangling NEF files has proven more …
Inspired by this post at DataGenetics,, I implemented a quick-and-dirty script in python to test it out. The first takes an input image and iterates over it pixel by pixel, splitting it into two output images. Ideally, the outputs are randomly assigned, so it is impossible to recover the original …
I've been a little busy lately, but should be able to pick things up again with the new PC I built. Made a time-lapse of assembling it too:
I've just enabled SSL on the site. Technically it's TLS, but the name SSL seems to be sticking. Now you can access it at https://www.foxrow.com (note https). The not-encrypted version should still be available at http://www.foxrow.com. I'm not sure with Heroku hosting the …
