Sometimes I think about what I’ve been working on in my spare time since the beginning of last year and I’m like “What the crap, Liza. You’re spending your time trying to make toy slugs. Go learn a useful skill or something.”

Install Get Chocolatey (awesome command line installer for windows) Open powershell as administrator and type: C:\> choco install powergist Once that’s done simply type ISE and you’ll see it pop up on the right. Login to your Github account and away you go. *Warning – This was a quick project and should be considered Alpha quality to see if it was possible and/or useful. If you find a bug or issue head over to the github repo..

This past weekend I participated in the CivicHacks "Game Jam for Good". The goal was to raise awareness of the global water crisis and ultimately promote PackH2O , a Columbus-based startup that designs water backpacks for developing water-stressed regions. The jam lasted 48 hours. My entry is called "Achilles". Achilles is a multiplayer text-based simulation. You the player must manage a village in a third-world country exp..

Jeg sitter i styret i Dataforeningen Østlandet hvor jeg er med å arrangerer Software 2015. Software er en kryssfaglig IT-konferanse hvor vi samler spesialister innenfor forskjellige fagfelt for å få dem til å snakke sammen på tvers av fagområdene. På konferansen er det dagsaktuelle temaer og trender som står på programmet. Jeg er stolt av alle de spennende temaene faggruppene har tatt fram og samarbeidet vi har fått til på tvers av fagmiljø..

Reading my previous blog post some people asking why I’m so strongly against XMLs if they are really good? I think I shall clarify that I’m not against XMLs per se, I’m against the way many developers organize their apps. Let’s look at a simple example - a button and a textview showing how many times the button was pressed. Here’s a typical implementation in Java+XML: |

When working on a site, it’s common to browse it yourself from multiple browsers, multiple devices and multiple locations for testing purposes. For analytics about your user behaviour to be useful, we need a way to exclude this internal traffic from Google Analytics reports. In this post I explain a method I found useful for hiding visits to your own site when you want to be able to test your site from any browser or any location.

In spite of being a marketing spin and link bait, Heroku article on microservices does a pretty good job at explaining why microservices matter and, at a very high level, what challenges they pose. However, microservices aren’t a silver bullet, and they won’t make a sluggish IT organization fast. While individual services become more robust and less complex, the overall system takes on the many challenges of distributed systems at the..

Few days ago, I landed in Paris. My original flight was delayed, and I missed my connecting flight. The next flight was in 12 hours, so I had to figure out what to do in the mean time. I could stay at the airport during the whole day. But that would have been lame, I would have missed out on exploring Paris. I am lucky to not need visa for France, and I had no real excuse not to go out. Yet, several times I gave up on going out and several ....

submit-sitemap: Node.js module to submit sitemaps to search engines

I’ve just uploaded a small Node.js module for submitting/pinging sitemaps to search engines called submit-sitemap. This is meant to be used after you’ve made updates to your site to encourage crawlers to reindex your pages. The module currently submits your sitemap to Google and Bing. This saves you from having to use Google’s webmaster tools and Bing’s webmaster tools to submit your sitemap manually. For example, I’ve used this in the last..

A thread appeared on Hacker News recently about how successful people operate. The comment below really struck a chord with me. Don’t waste time. Be mission/vision focused. Be polite to everyone always. Be helpful whenever possible. Be insanely organized. Seek and respond to constructive feedback on your work. Do the shit work without whining. All of this will build human capital with other people in the organization, which will bo..

Records continue to be broken. This week's map was actually done on Wednesday! Although most of Lemma is a strange hybrid of natural and alien-looking architecture, my design calls for a few "industrial / man-made" themed maps. For story reasons, and also because I just want to parkour through a skyscraper. So on Monday I asked Twitter this question: Would people be upset if I do a few levels in the visual style of Mirror's Edge?..

I am not a big fan of top tens but 10 Tips for Better Pull Requests is well worth reading. A good Pull Request involves more than just some code. In most cases, there’s one or more reviewer(s) involved, who will have to review your Pull Request in order to evaluate whether it’s a good fit for inclusion in the code base. Not only must you produce good code, but you must also cater to the person(s) doing the review.

Eve 0.5.1 was just released with a couple fixes to 0.5 (which was released earlier this week.) Don’t be surprised. Going forward I’m striving for a much faster release cycle, especially so when it comes to fixes.

I have been using Munin to monitor the health of my Raspberry Pi for while now. As I have more devices installed in my network I was looking for a way to monitor these devices as well. As Munin uses a client-server model you are required to install the Munin node on the device to be monitored. Every five minutes the Munin server polls its clients for the values and creates charts using RRDTool.

TL;DR: I offer declarative strongly typed layouts with data bindings in pure Java. Android UI development is broken. It normally ends up with lots of boilerplate code and poor architecture. Here are some (very subjective) issues: There is no MVC (or M-V-Whatever). XMLs always contain lots of copy-pasted code, very poor code reuse. XMLs are very fragile, so you can type “TextVeiw” and it will not warn you during the compilation but will thro..

A trait object in Rust 0 can only be constructed out of traits that satisfy certain restrictions, which are collectively called “object safety”. This object safety can appear to be a needless restriction at first, I’ll try to give a deeper understanding into why it exists and related compiler behaviour. This is the second (and a half) in a short series of articles on trait objects. The first one— Peeking inside Trait Objects —set the....
