Every morning I wake up to my cat Rigel wanting to play. He jumps around the bed and brings in his favorite toy ferret, purring and stepping on us until we either get up or put him outside. Then I get up and go to get a plastic bag from the kitchen before I do anything else. I go to Rigel’s jumbo sized litter box, followed by the cat who sits next to me and watches as I clean it. As soon as I’m done he steps inside and does his business. Me..

It’s been a long year for snailing. My simulation got a name, my snails got a brain, and a dev environment was deployed outside of my poor little MacBook Air that’s been chugging away like crazy with all the server and VM crap I’ve had to host on it.

When I met you in the summer, to my heart beats sound, we fell in love, as the leaves turned brown …. Summer - Calvin Harris I was relaxing and looking a tree whose leaves had become red-brown and this song came to my mind. I like it. I’ve heard it several times before, and repeated the main parts a few times internally. But then I was a bit bothered by the “as the leaves turned brown”. Why is it there? What good does it serv....

New builds sent for iOS will now use the new iOS VM by default, this will deliver a lot of new features: stack traces, 64 bit, xcode 6+ support, iPhone 6/6+ native resolution, no stall GC etc. We spent a great deal of time stabilizing the new VM but obviously it can’t be as mature as our existing XMLVM backend and so it is quite possible that you would run into issues that occur purely in the new VM. You can test that this is a new VM iss..

We love Amazon Web Services here at AdRoll. All of our production, test, and staging infrastructure runs on AWS. Really, the only systems we operate outside of EC2 are developers’ laptops. Most of the time this isn’t an issue, as we use platform-agnostic tools like Python, Java and Erlang. When it came to interacting with AWS APIs, though, we had a challenge: how do we manage sensitive AWS Keys across dozens of developer’s laptops and many ....

Change is difficult.

My role as a developer consultant at Thoughtworks gives me a great way to address the first two pillars. For the third pillar, every Thoughtworker is expected to embark on a personal journey to become ..

One of the common requests we get from users is more customization for the title bar area with more flexibility e.g. placing a TextField for search or buttons in various ways. Chen recently took action on this by introducing the new Toolbar API that replicates some of the native functionality available on Android/iOS and integrates with features such as the side menu to provide very fine grained control over the title area behavior.

As you may have noticed, the site has changed its look. That’s because I made a small rewrite and it resulted in a new static site generator. It’s my another NIH product, this time it’s written in Go. stash away I used stash before. It was written in UNIX Shell and was really perfect for my needs. Then it became slower and slower. The reason is that it could not track the timestamps of the web pages so it regenerated every page every time.

One of the key attributes I look for when writing and reviewing code is that code should express the intent of the developer more than the mechanism used to achieve that intent. In other words, code should read as much as possible as if it were a description of the end goal to be achieved. The mechanism used to achieve that goal is secondary. Over the years, I’ve found this emphasis improves the quality of a system by making it easier to w....

Big update this week! My voxel renderer now has the capability to overlay everything with any texture I want. I'm using it on a new set of interconnected winter levels. This way I don't have to manually come up with a frosty version of each texture. Without giving away too much, this week I built a new system that has implications for both puzzle solving and movement mechanics.
