The Boston Diaries

The ongoing saga of a programmer who doesn't live in Boston, nor does he even like Boston, but yet named his weblog/journal “The Boston Diaries.”

Go figure.

Fireworks from a different perspective

In the late 90s, I found myself flying home on the night of July 4th. It was incredible seeing so many fireworks shows from high above—everywhere I looked, there were tiny multicolored explosions. It was an incredible experience to see over a hundred fireworks shows, live, on one night.

Even more impressive is this video (link via Instapundit) of a fireworks show, filmed alongside exploding fireworks! I'm very surprised that the drone survived such an ordeal.

From my friend Jeff Koecher, that video was shot in West Palm Beach, Florida, about 30 miles north of Chez Boca.

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go ahead, I won't bite. I promise.

The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent links to that entry only. The format for the links are simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are interested in, say 2000/08/01, so that would make the final URL:

https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01

You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.

You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that important.
