about
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.

Tried it, seems there's something wrong with the image: https://code.google.com/p/inferno-rpi/issues/detail?id=1 (gonna try a second SD card anyway) I have high ho…

Hmmm. No Python-gevent? Still? Good showing of http-kit, though. Love that lib.

Interesting, but needs a few tweaks: - I simply cannot resize the windows on a Mac using the Accessibility API (I'm using Moom to tile my windows via keyboard bindings, and Zed is invisible to it…

I use xrdp (google xrdp scarygliders for a bleeding edge version) and Jump Desktop, which does RDP over SSH without fuss. Latency over a 3G connection is low enough for coding. I have the a Vagrant te…

Very cool. Somehwat ironic that I'm reading this in Firefox Aurora on my VPS, controlled from my iPad :)
comment
Very nice indeed. I'd rather have it without the exterior moulding, though.

Well, let's see if someone can get Android to use the GPU now. And yes, I'm not expecting miracles -- even though Broadcom never released their 4.x port, what they demoed on the-teaser-video…
comment
Weird. At least on Mail.app and Mavericks, plugins need to be properly code signed, etc. (I had to do that for https://github.com/rcarmo/HJKLPlugin to work in Mavericks)…
comment
Played with it for some Bottle apps and otherwise boring scripts (which are now half the size and easier to maintain). No ill effects so far, but dealing with classes is... Un-hythonic somehow :) (Edi…

The OP is going to have kittens when he finds out about hylang ( https://github.com/hylang/hy )
comment
I call bullshit. These things are happening often enough for them to be a competitive strategy between rival VPS hosting companies. (I happen to have servers hosted at Linode, Digital Ocean and a loca…

Best way I know of using macros in JS is https://github.com/Gozala/wisp , which generates pretty readable code. If you're going to pre-process, you might as well write in a n…
comment
sigh no way to get an ARM build going, though, nor more pointers for doing so with node-webkit. See https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable/issues/703 for more info.…
comment
Too bad that miscellaneous issues prevent them from getting an Android port out -- regardless of RAM and CPU requirements, I've been trying to get a decent accelerated web view going on it since…
comment
Incidentally, I've just updated https://github.com/rcarmo/HJKLPlugin with the new build UUIDs. You still need to self-sign it, but I'll eventually publish a binary.…
comment
I'm rather unimpressed by the implementations of the Python benchmarks, and surprised there isn't a single mention of gevent - that alone would have speeded up, say, Bottle by nearly an orde…
comment
Nice! Any chance jQuery can be removed as a dependency? Also, it would be nice to have the image block added to the demo.
comment
I'm not using Windows as a server - I'm using xrdp on Linux to access remote X sessions, since it's MUCH faster than any alternative (nomachine, vnc, etc.)
comment
Yeah, but xrdp doesn't. And there are plenty of exploits available for RDP servers of either flavor. I'd never leave RDP open on the Internet.
comment
Hmm. If only it supported SSH tunnelling out of the box. Seriously, RDP is not exactly "safe", and SSH gateways are common in mixed shops. I use Jump Desktop because of that alone.
comment
Nice, but a couple of months too late for me. I've switched over to Parallels 9 on the Mac, and it is _much_ faster overall (not to mention better USB support). Also, I highly recommend Vagrant u…
comment
This is amazing. FYI, this works out of the box with Mac OS X Lion's system Python and the gfortran compiler from homebrew - that's the only thing I need to install separately (Xcode and bre…
