Ruby
Learn and practice morse code

I have open-sourced a fairly comprehensive morse code tutor I have written (and used) in the Ruby language. It goes by the name of CW.
Pub real-ale selection menu

Here is an automated pub ale menu I created with the Ruby language, using the Sinatra framework, and some javascript. As ales are tapped and available for serving they appear on the blackboard as shown, complete with type, ABV, and price. Ales are entered into the system as they are tapped. This can trigger an update of a website containing a page showing the blackboard.
Amateur Radio
Installing MultimonNG (and QMake) on Ubuntu 17.10

I needed a copy of QMake to install MultimonNG on Ubuntu 17.10. QMake is a component of the Qt Framework. It is a utility to automate the generation of makefiles. The generated makefile is then used to build a final application (in this case MultimonNG).

Interview
Interview with Dennis Chambers

Yet another great interview I can happily recommend featuring the Jazz drummer Dennis Chambers.
Gary Husband Interview

I recently came across this interview with the remarkable English drummer / keyboard player Gary Husband.
Ubuntu
Fix Unrecognised Bluetooth Adapter on Lubuntu 18.04

This is a note to self since the fix is so bizarre and hard to track down. I recently broke bluetooth badly on my Mac Mini which is running Lubuntu 18.04, and took several hours to fix.

Rae Morris - Push Me To My Limit (live at Toerag)

I first heard Rae Morris on the radio station Chill Radio and had to investigate the artist who produced this exquisite record.
