#binjr has a new home on the Fediverse!

The social account for binjr on the Fediverse is now hosted on its own dedicated and independently run instance: https://social.binjr.eu.
(Shout out to the great folks at @gotosocial for making this so easy with their incredibly lightweight ActivityPub server. Go check it out!)

If you were already following the old @binjr account: no worries! There’s nothing for you to do: your subscription should have automatically carried over to the new account.

Of course, our brand new lil' instance is quite expectedly off to some rather modest beginnings—it is not open for registration to new users (that is not the point) but it would help "prime the federation pump" if folks from all parts of the Fediverse interacted with it, just once.
So please consider boosting this, if you feel so inclined!

Cheers!

I've been pretty pleased with my custom "flickering neon sign" effect in #javafx for the #binjr logo, until the moment I realized my 12 y/o had no idea what that flickering was supposed to be!
A very "what's the color of a TV tuned to a dead channel?" moment...

#binjr #javafx #javafx #dataviz #timeseries

Working on a new UI feature in #binjr: the ability to split the visualization area to display many worksheets in a single window.

There is a discussion thread with more details over on binjr's github repo: https://github.com/orgs/binjr/discussions/158

* Many bugs fixed, some particularly old and nagging!

@binjr You might have noticed that #Homebrew or any other #macOS package managers are conspicuously absent from this list...
Well, that's not out of spite or disinterest, but rather because not having a mac makes it *very* difficult for me to even test things in this environment, let alone add specific features.

If you'd like to see #binjr on #homebrew, please consider helping out if you are able, at least with testing: https://github.com/binjr/binjr/issues/149

Cheers!
