5/17/2019

 
Seven weeks. That's how long it's been since I released a weekly update. Yikes. However, the Weekly Update is back and better than ever! There's been some pretty exciting stuff going on at Tectra this week! Keep reading to see what's new.

Site redesign

You've probably noticed by now that I've redesigned the site. I have to admit, I like the new style a lot. I hope you like the updated design!

The archives

You might have noticed the new archives page on the site. This is where I will put my abandoned projects up for download. I've been wanting to create an archives page for a while, so I'm glad I finally got around to creating it!

Tectra Writer Plans

I have some exciting new plans for Tectra Writer. I've been tinkering with a feature called custom word limit, which works as it sounds. Keep an eye out for it in the next major release!

The conclusion

This has been a pretty exciting week for Tectra! I'm sorry that I haven't posted Weekly Updates for a while. I'll try to do better in the coming weeks. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

What's in John's Backpack? (EDC)

I may no longer be a computer science major, but I'm still fascinated by electronics of all kinds.

These are often being swapped around, as I am an enthusiast at heart, but some of these have stuck around for a long time. So, here's the list: Phone: iPhone 15 Pro (128 GB) It's a very nice phone.

Laptop: MacBook Pro 14" (2023, M3) I feel bad for my MacBook Pro. It gets tossed around in my bag, is constantly being used, and has a fair few battle scars. But it keeps on going. This laptop has gotten me through college thus far, and I'm hoping I won't have to replace it for a few more years. Watch: Apple Watch SE (the newest one) I swear that this i...

I love my Instax Mini SE. Here's why!

Hey, folks! I did it. I finally got into instant photography. And I love it. Admittedly, I've had some experience with instant photography before now. I got my first instant camera at a thrift store in 2022. It was a Polaroid OneStep from the 90s, and while film was still readily available for it, it was far too expensive to justify using it regularly. As cool as instant photography was, I accepted that it wasn't economically viable for me and moved on. ...Until about a month ago! On one of my first dates with my girlfriend, she introduced me to her Fujifilm Instax Mini 11. It was a much more compact and modern instant camera than my Polaroid. It also used smaller film slides. This was a big deal, as she informed me that the smaller film came at a smaller price. I was intrigued. A couple weeks later, I ventured to Walmart and splurged. I picked up the cheapest Instax they sold: The Mini SE. It only cost about $57, and it came bundled with 10 slides of film. I also picked up an ...
