I’ve worked with teams who have some fairly sophisticated card walls, in terms of columns (some even warranted!). For my personal card wall, I really just want an at-a-glance view for my day: just the work that I’m dealing with today, nothing more, nothing less.

We need to change our culture” – how many times have I heard that when I am working with organizations trying to adopt an agile approach? Well, I hear it almost every time I give one of our workshops, and it has driven me to change the way I start each workshop by trying to discover the culture of this particular organization, and what it might mean to the workshop participants. In this way I am able to tailor each workshop a little to be a..

On a recent vacation I visited the Mingei International Museum in San Diego. During a tour by the museum director we were looking at a mid-1930′s Santo Domingo Pueblo (New Mexico) necklace. “Interesting about this necklace,” the director said, “are the ‘nots’– not coral, not obsidian (but old melted phonograph records for the black element). During the depression the Native American artists were constrained by the lack of materials. Everyon..

tl;dr Checkout the charts on my RaspberryPi ** For quite a long time I was looking for a way to monitor and record th temperature and humidity at my apartment. What was missing was a convenient, preferably wireless solution. After receiving my RaspberryPi I started to look into that more intensively. USB-WDE1 Receiver The USB Weather Data Receiver USB-WDE1 wirelessly receives data from various weather sensors of ELV at 868 MHz.

A feature thats glaringly missing within Django and common in many other frameworks including many Java frameworks and Rails is connection pooling for your database connection. As most Django users are Postgres users the default answer is to use something like pgPool or pgBouncer. This are tools that you can run that will persist a connection to your Postgres database intended to offer: Connection Pooling Replication Load Balancing Its....

Numberphile posted a video today describing a neat trick based on complete sequences: The mathematics here is pretty simple, but I noticed at the end of the video that Dr. Grime was constructing the cards by hand, when really this is a job for a computer program. I thought it would be a nice warmup exercise (and a treat to all of the Numberphile viewers) to write a program to construct the cards for any complete sequence.

On Saturday, we hosted Story Hack Boston along with P2PU and Mashery at the MIT Media Lab. About 50 people from content and technical backgrounds joined us to create new story telling experiences. The crowd was pretty evenly split, which made for a lot of awesome collaboration.

It turns out it is non trivial (afaict) to include a tree of files (a directory) in a python distutils data_files argument. Here’s how I managed to do it, while also allowing the programmer to include manual entries: NAME = 'project_name' distutils . core . setup( # ... data_files = [ ( 'share/ %s ' % NAME, [ 'README' ]), ( 'share/ %s ' % NAME, [ 'files/somefile' ]), ( 'share/ %s /templat..

java.util.logging.ErrorManager: 4: Unable to create [c:pache-tomcat-7.0.30 -Dcatalina.home=c:pache-tomcat-7.0.30\logs\]
I was getting this error recently, and found that it was caused by having a trailing backslash on my CATALINA_HOME variable. i.e. Incorrect: set CATALINA_HOME=c:pache-tomcat-7.0.30\
Correct: set CATALINA_HOME=c:pache-tomcat-7.0.30

This is the second in a series of interviews on continuous delivery, this time with John Allspaw, one of my co-authors on the Devops Cookbook. These interviews will eventually be put together – along with some additional exclusive material – into a set of LiveLessons, with the royalties going to Black Girls Code.

After js13kGames I went back to the main project I was working on and decided to change pretty much everything. The good thing is that I still had some usable code. The “bad” thing is this updated idea involved a lot of UI, which I haven’t really done much before. When I say “bad” I actually mean awesomely challenging, which it has been.

Hi all, I’ve just put the finishing touches to my new app that’s been alive for a while now as a personal project. Over the last couple of weeks I’ve put in the final push to get it up to scratch and get it published. If you’re a current user of http://hypem.com or a fan of new music, then hopefully this will be right up your street. The app pulls together the latest music charts from The Hype Machine and combines it with artist infor..

So I use one of the famous Herman Miller Aeron chairs in my home office. I love it primarily because the mesh seat prevents swampass , but of course overall it is a highly ergonomic chair, nicely adjustable, rugged, and holds its value well. My specific chair was made in 2000 and I bought it used on craigslist for $250 in 2009. Today exactly the 12-year warranty finally expires. About two weeks ago it suddenly broke.
