I remember when 8-bit machines ruled the Earth, IOS was a Cisco thing, and e-mail bounced around via dial-up, back before the first AI winter.

I'm now enjoying the new AI spring and doing all sorts of fun stuff.

This is soooooooo cool. I'm going to see whether this can be added to a long-running Python daemon for runtime inspection...

I've done this sort of thing for a while (if in a simpler, more naive way) by just tweaking GOPATH in a Makefile. In fact, I had to do it again only yesterday, for a very simple little server: h…

Yeah. I've been using fig for a while now (and will eventually replace everything with compose), and it's simpler than Vagrant for reproducible environments. There is one little caveat when …

That Makefile is... weird. Why issue a "make sub-target" command? Makefiles are all about understanding dependencies, so you should actually be doing target: dependency <com…

This is very neat indeed, and I'd love to try it out, but the launchpad links are broken. Anyone know where I can get the package for Ubuntu armhf? Or the source?

Is that 30,000, 29,989 or 30,523 commits? :)

Neat. I've been maintaining a list of my own here: http://taoofmac.com/space/infoviz (no fancy graphics, but a fair amount of notes)…

I tried to get the JIT to work on ARM a couple of months back. Since the author explicitly turned off the JIT, I suppose there's still work to be done...

I'm sorry, but no. The resource sharing model of Plan9/Inferno is great, but what they demoed was essentially a modal UI - plug in your phone and you get an external display and a different …

Well, I can't even reset my password. I suspect that's because my registered e-mail address uses the "foo+bar@gmail.com" format (which I use for easier filtering), and something on…

Well, you could go all out, grab https://github.com/chjj/term.js , plug that into termui using WebSockets or something, and it would most likely work: On the other hand, you can e…

The use of Node-webkit for this... is disturbing. It's not that hard to code this in Obj-C, and I have menu bar applets that take... 200KB RAM.

Don't know why this got modded down, since the vast majority of iPad keyboards have a home key instead of an Esc key, making it very frustrating to use SSH apps.

You can try Caret, which is a very nice editor, and Zed, which works with Dropbox. However, you will not be able to do much (if anything) with Docker without going into developer mode, and even then i…

I have to say that I tried Vivaldi a couple of weeks ago and found it too alien and unintuitive for my taste, both on the Mac and under Ubuntu. In comparison, "mainline" Opera is (at least f…

We could always propose it as the phonetics for a Jackie Chan emoji. Weirder things have happened, and it's not like we're running out of glyph space.
