Recently, I developed a web application for my friend Alex Miller’s conference, Strange Loop. The app accepted talk submissions and gathered votes on those submissions to rank the top ones. I hosted the application on Heroku’s node.js beta preview and used a free CouchOne instance for the data store. Although I encountered some difficulties, I learned some important lessons that I thought I’d share. Tag your last successful Heroku deploymen..


Everyone has heard horror stories about pointy-haired-bosses counting lines of source code to track the progress of a project. We roll our eyes and laugh at their stupidity. But before you laugh too much, you might want to find out whether you’re really any better. Most of what software projects measure are not things we care about. Not things we really care about. Do you really care about the number of coding standard violations in your co..

It strikes me now, many years later, that what I'd built was essentially a PHP markov chain Several months ago I was wondering to myself if you could detect patterns in a list of words and then use those patterns to generate a new list of fake “words”. A kind of a flavored Lorem Ipsum generator, where I could change the feel of the sentences by switching out the data set.  I’m sure thousands of developers have done this before me – but..

How many steps do you need to perform to release a new version of your software? Do you even know? Releasing frequently requires the release process to be as streamlined as possible. A good way to get started is to write a step-by-step instruction that explicitly state everything that needs be performed for an installation or upgrade. Then get to work cleaning it up: Make sure you can build and package everything that’s needed for the insta..

Thanks to everybody who attended my OCW hacking session! Sorry to guys who attended via webinar – I’ll do the session again in a few weeks, with audio from end to end hopefully! And I will get someone to assist me with monitoring the transmission quality and attendee questions etc. Note that this stuff is mostly for hacking and fun – don’t use the undocumented stuff in production!

Well it appears that Cuil the troubled search engine that didn’t is dead . While I am not that surprised by this considering its lackluster results, I do feel that this is bad for the web in general. With the Yahoo/Bing deal we now have very few independent indexes that power search on the web. The big players are down to the following it would seem, Google Bing Ask Gigablast Blekko What did suprise me about this though w..

No computer system is an island. At least not these days. This creates a challenge when you want to change APIs: Do you want to upgrade all affected systems at once, or do you want to support multiple versions? Both approaches have downsides. Coordinating several upgrades increase the risk that one of the upgrades fail, in which case, you may want to roll everything back. In some situations, rollback may not even be possible.

PHP Entity Generator - boyter.org - 15 years ago - eng
A while ago I was using the Django Framework and was a big fan of the parts of it which save time. One part which I both loved and hated was the ORM . The bit I loved was for creating new database entities, loading them and modifying them. The ability to just load up an object and modify it and then call its save method saved me a lot of time. What I hated about it however was using it for doing any form of complex query (since I am very c..

There was a pretty interesting snippet in Engadget's coverage of yesterday's Nokia World keynote: "By 2013 800 million people will be using GPS-enabled devices. Soon, everything on the Internet will have a location coordinate. This is a space we intend to own." Indeed, this is a quite possible future, and one for which we with Midgard are quite well prepared for. Many smartphone browsers (and even desktops) nowadays can transmit ....

Here is my class with their new Kindle DXs. Notice the absence of heavy textbooks on the desks! UPDATE: Unfortunately, while it was cool to carry around all of our textbooks in PDF format on our Kindle DXs, the pilot ultimately led to us not adopting eBooks exclusively. Simply put, many of our students just preferred the ease of printed books. eBooks may become the norm in the future, but probably only when everyone carries a laptop with ..

Asking people for payment for work is a touchy subject for everyone involved.  We've had the luxury of experimenting a little bit over our first couple of years, and here's what we learned.

I have been moving things around a bit here in preparation for my ninth and probably last trip. (Yes, I know, I always say it is going to be my last trip. But this season marks the end of the construction of IceCube , so far fewer people will be going to Pole after this austral summer.) I am tentatively scheduled to leave Chicago for the South Pole on Jan. 1, 2011. After taking last season off, I’m excited to go back for one last time.

I really like Twitter. I think it’s a great, fun, service, that helps enable interesting online communities, and is a surprisingly effective way to spread news and information to lots of people online. One of the things that I’ve loved about Twitter is their API, and how open and welcoming they’ve been to developers. I even use Twitter from an IM client that I develop, using protocol support that I wrote myself.
