Tips from the Truck is a new series I’m starting now, where I talk about the various little things you can do to make truck life easier. I briefly mentioned in this post that eating out all the time can quickly cut into your truck savings. Why would you be eating out all the time, you ask? Because you can never, under any circumstances, keep food in your truck. Even non-perishables, you don’t want to keep any vaguely organic, edible ..

While multi-image’s go a long way in making your app scalable to various devices, scalable images can be even more convenient. The SVG standard never took off though, its too complex to support in an efficient way on the devices and so its relegated to web applications and even those don’t make heavy use of it due to its complexity. However, icon fonts have gained a lot of popularity in recent years and we used them in the past in Cod..

UPDATE At about 23:00 (Pacific time, June 23) Google announced that they are removing the hotwording component entirely from Chromium: “it is not open source, it does not belong in the open source browser”. Good news. A few days ago, The post Not OK, Google appeared first on FullStack - Ofer Zelig's Blog .

After trying and playing some new stuffs(except M preview) released in Google I/O, I have found some trivial things to take care of. In this part, we will see how should we take care if we add iOS details in our google cloud console and how it can affect android development.

Here at trivago we write a huge number of log messages every day that need to be stored and monitored. To handle all these messages we created Gollum, a tool that enables us to conveniently send messages from multiple sources to different services.

At the beginning of my IT consulting career, I thought my purpose was to solve technical problems. I thought that people -- especially business people -- knew exactly what they wanted and why. I though that their teams had a unified purpose and agenda. The only reason they had to hire someone like me, was to fill in the technical details and work some development magic to make all their dreams come true.

I’m a very judgmental person, I have been for as long as I can remember. It’s certainly not a trait that I’m proud of, it’s just always been easier for me to dismiss people based on superficial observations than to actually try to understand anything about them. If neither software engineering nor driving buses work out for me, I can readily imagine myself becoming a dunk tank clown , because I’m quick to recognize “flaws” with a cursor..

I wouldn't say that. It's really a cultural thing. I teach my student that if they want to know about a function from a module they can just do : import module module.__file__[:-1] And open the given file in their editor when it's pure python code. They never do it. Partly it's because they are scared. Partly it's because no teacher teach that anymore at the university. But essentially it's because any other method is more productive, so th....

I recently created a simple Rails 4 API named LofoCats API and a simple UI application consuming it named LofoCats UI (yes, I like cats, what else is new?) You can find the code for the: API: https://github.com/iridakos/lofocats_api UI: https://github.com/iridakos/lofocats_ui The concept of the app is pretty simple: register & view lost or found cats. There are instructions on how to setup both apps in the projects’ READ..

I can’t really remember the first time I saw a computer. I do remember though that “working on a computer” was the first thing that came to my mind when I was asked “What do you want to do when you grow up?”. Years later, being both a grown up and a developer, I ask myself: Now that you know, if you were a kid again, would you still want to be working on computers when you grew up? Let’s see what a life for a developer means to me....

Chen recently published a major refactoring of our connection framework which up until now only supported Facebook login. With this recent refactoring the code to connect to various authentication services becomes far simpler and various services should become more pluggable. The default implementation centers around the Login and LoginCallback classes that use oAuth by default to perform the login. FacebookConnect keeps working j..

This blog post is going to explain how to route traffic on your host through a Tor Docker container. It’s actually a lot simplier than you would think. But it involves dealing with some unsavory things such as iptables. Run the Image I have a fork of the tor source code and a branch with a Dockerfile. I have submitted upstream… we will see if they take it. The final result is the image jess/tor , but you can easily build locally fro....

I have some news, two items actually. First , today (it’s still 18th June in California) is my blog’s 8th anniversary! I wrote my first blog post, about Advanced Oracle Troubleshooting , exactly 8 years ago, on 18th June 2007 and have written 229 blog posts since. I had started writing and accumulating my TPT script collection a couple of years earlier and now it has over 1000 files in it! And no, I don’t remember what all of them d..

A few weeks ago, I went whitewater rafting on the Nile in Uganda. My crew was given a choice of “wild or mild”. Our crew of nine, led by our master oarsman and rafting guide Jeff, chose wild.

So I’ve been at work almost a month now, and living in the truck for just as long. I’ve definitely established a comfortable routine, and I’m a lean, mean, code-producing machine on my team, so everything is going good. This means I can focus my non-work hours to the real goal: the big trip. The Trip When I interned in Silicon Valley last summer, I realized a few very important and related things:

You can read Part Two of this series here. This is the scene; on one side, we have the Android platform developers and on the other, the hackers. Just as with any software system, Android has its list of security problems. And it’s a pretty close race between the two sides.

Unfortunately, I’m not talking about some more RV/Hippie Van/Truck neighbors. No matter how well you plan out things, life always has a way of throwing little things at you to make sure you’re still paying attention. For the past week, life has been throwing the sound of jackhammers in my direction. It makes perfect sense that construction crews would work at night, when normal human beings aren’t at work and getting in their way, but I ....

Due to several recent events beyond my control I’m a bit behind on the project - hence the lack of updates which I apologise for. The goods news is that I’m back working to finish off the clusters and I’m happy to report that all is going to plan. Here is the final digram of the two-node cluster design: Plain text version available here This was generated from the LCMC tool (beware - it’s java!).
