title: Reflections on NCAA post
---

The exercise seemed easy enough, until I managed to clone into the "Spring 2014" folder rather than the NCAA folder. Once we got that fixed, following the directions was fairly straight forward. Jacob and I went through the steps, then had to back-track a bit because of capitalization issues, as well as having duplicate content that had to be corrected because both he and I had put in the tag, and Jacob had put the info into the tag on one of the two without us catching that it would break things ever so slightly. Once we had that fixed, we were in a good space, and had our merges complete as you can see on the "Tulsa" and "Albany" posts:

title: Splat Space in Durham

I'm reporting live from "Splat Space" in Downtown Durham, located under downstairs next to the "Beyou Cafe" on Main St., and I feel as awesome as this picture is:

The event started with a couple members introducing and opening up the space, making announcements, introducing newcomers and making people aware of projects. There are a wide array of projects that then start up organically based on what people are interested in.

I was prompted to introduce myself, and saw the look of recognition from the members in attendance who had previously met a couple others from our class.

Once introductions were over, people broke out into groups as they choose, and some just float around to socialize. I huddled up with another guys who was interested in pygame, which I had only heard a little about at that point.

I'm going to hang here for a little while, but wanted to get started with posting about it while in the moment, but Splat Space is a very warm and welcoming space to visit, and I intend to come back!

title: Twitter from the Command Line!

I was thankful to be "Vannah" for this part of our class's learning. I submitted this:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Testing tweeting from command line, fam...bear with me...</p>&mdash; Oak Ritchie (@oakritchie) <a href="https://twitter.com/oakritchie/statuses/448867427976491011">March 26, 2014</a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Then I added a cheeky: "It puts the lotion on its skin..."

A couple other users inquired as to how to do it, and I'm looking forward to teaching others how!
