Emacs text faces - xenodium.com - 10 years ago - eng
Text faces = Text styles. Face attributes: font, height, weight, slant, foreground/background color, and underlining or overlining. Font lock mode automatically assigns faces to text. M-x list-faces-display: Shows faces defined. M-x helm-colors: Also handy. Unspecified attributes are taken from 'default' face.

One of our core values at trivago is fanatic learning. Twice a year, the trivago software developers gather to have a 2 day internal hackathon. This December saw another round of ambitious creativity, relaxed atmosphere, and good food.

Libraries are only good when it’s easy to share them. Android has done this wrong for a very long time. Node.js has npm and a new library can be published in a couple of minutes, usage is as simple as adding library name to package.json. Go has no package manager at all and publishing a library is as simple as “git push” and using is as simple as “import github.com/user/library”.

pTo drive up user engagement at theScore, we recently introduced an onboarding screen that#39;s shown when you open the app for the first time. First, you get a list of sports teams that are popular in your area, and the option to subscribe to some of them:/p pimg src=/assets/follow_teams.png alt=/p pNow based on the teams you choose, it would be nice to also recommend some players for you to follow. So how would one go about choosing which....

This is going to be a quick guide to spinning up an ASPNET 5 website on Service Fabric. To host it we’re going to use the “Party Cluster” service from the team. This lets you grab a slot on a free public Service Fabric cluster to try out things and get up to speed. So first things first, head over to the Party Cluster site and sign up for a cluster. http://aka.ms/tryservicefabric Once you’ve requested access to a cluster (Tip: Pi....

JSONB in Postgres is absolutely awesome, but it’s taken a little while for libraries to come around to make it as useful as would be ideal. For those not following along with Postgres lately, here’s the quick catchup for it as a NoSQL database. In Postgres 8.3 over 5 years ago Postgres received hstore a key/value store directly in Postgres. It’s big limitation was it was only for text In the years after it got GIN and GiST indexes to ma....

AdRoll uses large-scale machine learning to bid intelligently in internet advertising auctions. In this post, we explore some of the engineering behind the data pipelines that feed our learning algorithms, in particular our real-time system that constructs features from event streams. #Overview If you have been served a banner ad on the internet in the past few years, there is a good chance that ad was served through a process known as....

Dart SDK ships with an analysis server . Very handy if you'd like to write a completion plugin for your favorite editor. The API is well documented .

Either escape or execute the following as one-liner json requests. { "id": "1\n", "me..

This is the first year that I’ve been to the World of Commodore event in Mississauga, Ontario. It’s a yearly gathering of Commodorks who create new software and hardware for vintage Commodore computers. I had no idea that it even existed until someone I knew told me about it. Since it’s relatively close to me, I just had to go. Plus, I have many Commodore computers in my vintage computer collection.

Since Docker 1.9, the multi-host networks can be used very easily. All you have to do is just setup your Swarm cluster and use docker network create -d mynet and voila: Your multi host network is ready. I want to do a benchmark of this new feature, however, the official multi host networking examples are in Virtualbox and local performance can be misleading. I created an image called mustafaakin/alpine-iperf just has the Alpine image plus i..

Desiccant . I really enjoy the way that word sounds. It’s like a discount version of decadent , except that it hasn’t been soiled by rampant overuse in chocolate commercials. I was curious as to its etymology which, as you’ll see above, isn’t nearly as exciting as I’d hoped. I had never even heard of the word until a reader, known only to me as “BoscoBob”, brought it up in an email.

It’s been a while (six months almost to the day) since I did my last big Home Improvement post , and I think it’s about high time we changed that. Not only because a lack of Home Improvement posts signals stagnancy on the front of truck-progress, but also because there is much to be improved upon truck-wise, and I should be more proactive and motivated to work on it. This, as is likely evident from the title, is just a “Mini” Home Improv..

The advances and growth of our Selenium based automated testing infrastructure generated an unexpected number of test results to evaluate. We had to rethink our reporting systems. Combining the power of Selenium with Kibana's graphing and filtering features totally changed our way of working.
