I was looking through the logs of what people are searching for and noticed there is a large amount of “Hello World” searches such as “hello world java” which actually came up with no results. I couldn’t have that continue so I quickly integrated the Hello World Collection You can now search for hello world in 400+ languages (although curiously no in Clojure). Just type hello world and the language you are searching for EG,

Pitching the right idea to the right people can make a world of difference. The question is how do I find the right people?

Some photos from EB Expo! You will see the main writeup on the iiNet blog shortly. For now, suffice to say I loved it and am definitely hoping to go to Sydney next year.

My mom had a birthday gathering the other day (happy 52 mom). It was pretty uneventful as you would expect, but as sometimes happens these days, a conversation about Facebook got started. Most techies you meet would say that they hate listening to normal people talk about anything technical - especially the older generation. I usually find these kinds of conversations rather enjoyable, especially if I can withdraw and not have to be a part ..

First of all, all my work below is in draft form, and not optimized, even a little bit. I have performance issues, but I just want to represent the capabilities of this new technology. I am neither IETF or any other organization that can define a protocol, but I hope this article would inspire some people. HTML5 Magic As you might not know, the HTML 5 specification offers File API for manipulating both binary and text files on client side.

Way late here... "Starting with Python 3.2, I’ve gone through the module documentation and added direct links to the relevant source code." Yay! I was wishing for this a few weeks ago when reading the Python 2.7 docs. Your blog here prompted me to suggest that a feature be added to Sphinx, but as Casey Duncan points out above, it already exists. It's use should be more strongly encouraged. Thanks.

The term Extreme Programming (XP) was coined in the nineties. Originally, it described a set of practices that have mostly been widely adopted today. Among these practices were continuous integration, test-driven development, user stories and frequent releases. These practices are hardly radical or extreme today. So what does “extreme programming” mean now? To me, the idea behind Extreme Programming can be summed up as follows: What would h..

Google has just annouced that they are killing off two new products, Buzz and Google Code search (read here) . Buzz is a no brainer (although I am certain someone out there is using it) but code search is a little sad. Its also both annoying and an opportunity for http://searchco.de/ Its annoying because I have branch in my source control which integrates with Google code search. I was about to push it out too. This kills a few hours i..

Performance are really bad for FreeBSD in KVM, one solution is to use paravirtualized driver, virIO. At the time of writing FreeBSD 9.0 is beta 3 and the last commit in the virtio project is 225710 cd /usr/src/sys/dev svn co http://svn.freebsd.org/base/projects/virtio/sys/dev/virtio cd /usr/src/sys/modules svn co http://svn.freebsd.org/base/projects/virtio/sys/modules/virtio cd /usr/src/sys/modules/virtio make install add this to /boot/load..

The “new” FreeBSD installer does not give you the options to simply install ZFS as root, so sad, here is how to do it. Most installation recommand to install / in the zpool root, which is not always clean, for example a recursive snapshot will snapshot your swap … #Boot cd and choose shell: umount /dev/md1 mdmfs -s 1024M md1 /tmp gpart destroy -F ada0 gpart create -s gpt ada0 gpart add -b 34 -s 64k -t freebsd-boot ada0 #gpart add -s 4G -t f....

Closures are functions that you define "on the fly" that have access to the same variables (the same [scope](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scope_\(computer_science\))) as they get defined in. You can store them as variables, pass them around between other functions, and generally get treated like a normal variable. In general they are very powerful. Read on for a deeper explanation of how they are useful and creative way in which they can b..

Hints of Revolution Every time that I sign into Flickr, the digital revolution in science becomes apparent to me. One would expect this to be most realized through my daily accessing of science journals via the internet, however that is access to scientific papers, but not necessarily scientific information. Journals and publishers largely remain the gatekeepers of scientific knowledge, but here I see a a new trend in the digital revolution..

I get to Brisbane, catch a train to the CBD. First thing I do: stumble into a fantasy and science fiction book shop and buy a book on impulse (Germline by T.C. McCarthy). Second thing I do: sit down at an Internet cafe next door to the book shop.

There are many ways you can tell your startup is growing. Of course, we have our own internalmetrics around the hundreds of new retargeting advertisers who start using AdRoll every month. We’ve also found that two additional growth indicators are an increase in number of ramen packages consumed and an increase in boxes of gear delivered. As much as we love ramen and gear, there’s one thing we love more: neutral, 3rd-party data validatio..

From comic book stores to Facebook to message boards, it seems that the “Keep Calm and Carry On” poster is living a new life as pop-culture cool while people remix its’ message with both quirky or banal messages. This attempt tries to speak most directly to its underlying message of consumerism, amidst the current climate of the Occupy Movement.

It was a long weekend here in Australia and as such I decided to take it with my girlfriend and spend time totally off the grid. As I came back from my time off I had a look at my general stats and was very surprised to see some massive spikes. Looked into it a bit more and it seems searchco.de has gotten some coverage from a few sites. See the below,

Preamble: This proof is not particularly elegant or insightful. However, it belongs in this gallery for two reasons. First, it is an example of the goal of most mathematics: to classify things. In the same way that all natural numbers can be built up from primes, every group can be built up from simple groups. So if we want to understand all groups, it suffices to understand the simple ones. Indeed, this project has been the collective goal..

On Friday, I presented at the Netnod meeting in Stockholm, Sweden - again about BGP error handling - this time presenting a bit of an update as to why this continues to be a problem for the Internet (and private BGP deployments) - and why this work is still really relevant. In addition, I tried to give an overview of what the solution space looks like. I’m not sure whether there’s video, but as usual, the slides are linked below!

Thanks to iiNet , I have a media pass to EB Expo in the Gold Coast next week. Also big thanks to Jess for nominating me to come along with the second pass. We will be exploring the expo, taking lots of pictures, possibly talking to some developers, and documenting our experiences over October 15 and 16.

One of the complaints many atheists raise against becoming a Christian is the fact that heaven will be boring. They have in their minds this idea of us in heaven as chubby toddlers in diapers playing harps and flying around. To me that would be hell. I would like to talk to you about why I think that heaven won’t be boring. Let me start by telling you a how my high school teacher explained to us the concept of geometric parallels. She sai....
