Making plans

I’ve decided to buy some arduinos. I had a few a couple of years ago but sold them off (because I was a poor student at the time). October will be the month of converting random things into robots. I really want to see how fast I can make a walker walk. Details will be forthcoming and maybe a couple of tutorials. There is an RSpec tutorial on the way too because I couldn’t find any decent documentation for testing controllers.
November will be Nanowrimo. I have a great idea kicking around in my head. I’m leaving it to simmer so it is really kicking hard by the time 12am November 1st comes around. I’ll publish publicly again this year so my progress will be up here (perhaps daily without edits or chapter by chapter as they are finished).
(Grr, spawn-fcgi crashed some time ago. Fixed it now. Gotta keep that alive)
Update:
- I installed monit,
- configured the daemon (change the /etc/monit/monitrc file to uncomment “set daemon 120”),
- turned it on (Change the startup line to “startup=1” in the /etc/monit/default file)
- enabled the service (“service monit start”),
- and created this file:
/etc/monit/conf.d/fastcgi
check process php-cgi with pidfile /var/run/fastcgi-php.pid
start program '/usr/bin/spawn-fcgi -a 127.0.0.1 -p 53217 -P /var/run/fastcgi-php.pid -- /usr/bin/php-cgi'
stop program 'killall php-cgi'
if failed host 127.0.0.1 port 53217 then restart
That restarts that crafty php-cgi spawner for the wordpressing.
