Grid engine - https://www.planimeter.org/grid-sdk/

I'm working on Grid engine 9, which should release some big improvements to out-of-the-box multiplayer support. It's the only source code-based Lua game engine that I know of with first-class multiplayer support that has a dogfood project. Everything else out there is roll-your-own w/ LuaSockets. I've been writing it for the last few years due to not being able to find a solution that fit my needs.

Trying out a hardware side project this time. Figuring out a way to track your surf board or kite board once it's lost at sea during a session. It's a pretty interesting challenge.

I've got a number of things I would like to work on that are more into the realm of hardware. One thing I'm really wanting to work on is a way for me to manage and interact with my cars ECU through a web interface. Would be useful for a number of things, such as keeping a better maintenance schedule, useful statistics, maybe even tuning...Seems pretty fun.

As far as tracking goes, I can't think of a need for it with my idea, but I know it's used a lot commercially already.

Automated deployment systems where solar powered mesh network repeaters with two camera channels each (SBCs) come online and handshake/pair then push auto-configurations, SSH, lighttpd for IP camera images, etc. Then go to secure mode to lock it all down and configure it for operating mode. Edit: think in trees, weatherproofed with solar panels

Incredibly interesting. How can I get more details on this project?

https://mailchi.mp/8e0622427dd5/prjmgrwkly - Newsletters around Project Management topics.

I feel most of the newsletters that aggregate stories and articles have too links. The reader gets overwhelm with what to read and what to skip.

I am taking a different strategy and aggregating only four links per week. The reader could quickly scan the four links. If any of them is interesting, click and read. Otherwise, hit the delete and move on for the day. I don't want to reader to be captive if he finds the links do no add value for them. Their time is to valuable and I respect that.

Also I am using this side project as motivation to consume the various articles for my day job.
