Partenza col botto per EuroPython 2012. I keynote introduttivi saranno tenuti nientemeno che dal creatore stesso del linguaggio, Guido Van Rossum, e da Alex Martelli. Ieri è stato annunciato il programma ufficiale e a quanto pare mi spetta l’inaugurazione della italian track martedì 3 luglio. Il giorno successivo sarò impegnato, ancora di prima mattina, con la versione in lingua inglese del mio talk:

It starts with an innocuous email: Hi, I am sorry I have to write you to e-mail from whois information of the domain. But I could not find contact e-mail or feedback form on your site. We are looking for new advertisement platforms and we are interested in your site %DOMAIN% Is it possible to place banner on your site on a fee basis? Best regards, Nicolas Gauthier But it quickly turned strange: Hi! Thanks for reply t..

A while ago I wrote this , which summarised my frustration with cookie cutter quests in MMORPGs. Later I mentioned here that playing SWTOR and seeing how they tied an interesting storyline with traditional quest mechanics made it more enjoyable while reiterating that while I don’t think traditional quests need to be eliminated completely and can be made fun, quests still need to evolve.

On Saturday, I joined over a hundred other hackers at HackTO. This has become a regular event in the Toronto tech scene, thanks to excellent organizing by Leila Boujnane and Corey Reid. SoundCloud joined several other API providers, including Atomic Reach, Context.IO, FreshBooks, Shopify, TinEye, Twilio, Trendspottr, WordPress and YellowAPI. The idea behind the event is simple: find a team (or go solo) and build an app using one or more of ..

Hi All, Just submitted an update for the BBC News Mobile app, this fixes the issues around live tiles. I’m going to hold my hand up to this one, it was a fault when moving between SVN and TFS. The backgroundscheduler code in the last version was actually from an older release and this caused the issues. I’ve also added in a beta feature for related articles, this is to shut up my housemate - Dan, who has been hassling me to make this ha..

Update the talk for this is now viewable on YouTube here When I first came across Django I was an immediate fan. It featured: Good documentation Steady but stable progress Community around apps which encouraged DRY I’ve been a user off and on depending on my needs for nearly four years since discovering it, and throughout that time all of the above have remained true. However, as I’ve worked on and encountered more complex applic....

I really dislike Django’s ORM. For my job I have written (and continue to maintain) a large internal project that uses Django’s ORM, templating language and MVC framework to serve requests, and I made the unfortunate mistake of sticking with Django’s ORM instead of using the much more powerful SQLAl...

There was a question in the twitter-sphere about whether using sequences (sequence.NEXTVAL) in your select query’s projection list would somehow disable smart scans happening? The answer is no, sequence use with smart scans works just fine. The smart scan offloading applies to data retrieval row sources (and filtering) only and nothing else. So, what you have in the query’s projection list (the sequence use for example), does not direct..

Happy to announce that the searchco.de code index is growing nicely. Even as you read this blog (assuming anyone does read it) thousands of new files are being added to the index. I suspect in time the code index will be one of the larger ones on the web. At last count it was well over 2 billion lines of code but I suspect this has grown quite a lot.

Già sapete che Git è uno degli strumenti senza i quali non potrei più vivere, ne ho scritto anche recentemente in Branching di successo per Git e Usare Git con Dropbox . Oggi vi propongo Git Immersion, fantastico sito-laboratorio per “immergersi” in Git imparandolo passo dopo passo. Git Immersion è un tour guidato che ti accompagna in una passeggiata tra i fondamenti di Git, ispirato dalla premessa che conoscere una cosa significa u..

UPDATE, Tue Apr 17: I followed the advice of an EB rep on the EB Games Facebook page and called the store to check on my CE key today, which still has not arrived. Then I called the EB Games CSR line (13 39 30) as the rep suggested. They sent my key out to me via email straight away. I registered it on the GW2 site using my old GW1 account. Quick and painless :) Now I just hope they did indeed give me a CE and not standard or DD key as the....

Just a quick blog post to point out that some speed improvements have been implemented. I have a few more tricks to roll out soon but on the whole things are much more snappy now. I have also been modifying my indexers and can now update the index ad-hoc rather then in large batches. I have some more stuff coming soon including search restricted to languages EG Java / C++ and an updated code view.

My universities student network is pretty restricted. I just finished coding a few changes to Simple and realised I couldn’t push any changes to GitHub due to port restrictions. It appears that they block almost all ports bar 80 and 445 via TCP, which is fine for most users but is quite annoying for...

Addy Osmani ne ha combinata un’altra delle sue: MVVM (Model View ViewModel) è un pattern architetturale basato su MVC e MVP, che tenta di separare chiaramente lo sviluppo della interfaccia utente (UI) da quelle che sono business logic e comportamento dell’applicazione. A questo fine, molte implementazioni del pattern ricorrono a un uso dichiarativo dei data bindings, per consentire la separazione del lavoro sulle Viste (View) dagli altr..
