My name is Jason Miller.
I am an independent website developer from Berkeley, CA. I’m currently working on a large project, however I sometimes dabble in side projects also, typically utilizing PHP, WordPress, or Ruby on Rails. I also sometimes play guitar or keyboard and produce my own music.
Not that I purposefully used the name ‘Redconfetti’ because of this, I find it interesting that it’s in this quote from one of my favorite shows growing up (it was on Nick at Night), Get Smart.
Chief: It’s KAOS confetti. This is how they contacted their agents.
Maxwell Smart: I don’t understand.
Chief: Well, whenever KAOS wanted to contact their agents in a different city, they’d hold a parade. Now the agents would pick up the confetti from the street and the color of the confetti determined their instructions.
Chief: How?
Chief: Green confetti meant that they were supposed to go ahead with the proposed plan. Red confetti meant stop instantly.
Maxwell Smart: Well that’s fantastic, Chief. How did you ever find that out?
Chief: Well, they also used white confetti. That meant ‘Danger, leave the country immediately’. Fortunately for us during their last parade it snowed.
Maxwell Smart: And they all left the country?
Chief: No, they all went to Miami.
