I've released the assets too https://github.com/thisisjofrank/trainagotchi-assets if you're in need of tamagotchi or train gifs they're all in there. SVGs, AIs, GIFs and PNGs. I'd love to see what you use them for!
I made a TFL tamagotchi game where you get to take care of a tube station in realtime https://tamagotrain.glitch.me
and I wrote up about building it here: https://medium.com/@jofranchetti/building-my-first-game-with-realtime-data-tamago-train-dce9674c5efa?sk=1e43ebf192eae24c8de87337a2d09c31
It is on Glitch so you can see all the code and make it your own :)
If you've been thinking of getting into IoT or wearable tech or building something using realtime data I've written up a guide to how I got started https://medium.com/@jofranchetti/getting-started-with-iot-wearables-and-mqtt-6007eb42a3cf I hope it opens a few gates! π‘πβ¨
Anyone spotted my special guest's appearance on the #halfstackconf @halfstackconf@twitter.com online Q&A? Pickle is unimpressed by my interviewing skills.

TIL - Numeric separators in JS! https://github.com/tc39/proposal-numeric-separator. 10_000 so much more instantly readable than 10000!
Thanks to everyone who listened to my IoT talk for #ProgrammedInPencil! The slides (with speaker notes and links to code) are here -> https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1y0Qqx6Kk9sPSo9rF0APmhxAshLXEnkvprgsMNTQUBJw/edit?usp=drivesdk. I'll treasure this little message forever! π β
Super excited to be speaking at https://www.programmedinpencil.com/ this evening about getting started with IoT wearables. See you there! π
I've got two legs from my hips to the ground,
when I move em they walk around.
When I lift em they climb the stairs,
when I shave em they ain't got hairs
