Well, I submitted A3P to IndieCade on Friday. It's also currently in QA testing for an online gaming portal ( BigPoint , still free of course). I won't say that A3P is done, but I think it's pretty stable. I need to do a bit more work on the connection establishment process (it seems a little fragile), but other than that, there's not much else to do. I also packaged the game into a standalone version available here: Windows (68 Mb) and..

Check is an excellent unit-testing framework for C code, used by a number of relatively well-known projects. It includes features such as running all tests in separate address spaces (using fork(2)), which means that the test suite can properly report segfaults or similar crashes without the test runner crashes. My main complaint about Check is that (unsurprisingly for a framework written in C), it’s not very declarative. After you define a..

I haven’t written any blog entries for a while, so here’s a very sweet treat for low-level Oracle troubleshooters and internals geeks out there :) Over a year ago I wrote that Oracle 11g has a completely new low-level kernel diagnostics & tracing infrastructure built in to it. I wanted to write a longer article about it with comprehensive examples and use cases, but by now I realize I won’t ever have time for this, so I’ll just point yo..

A few weeks ago, I wrote that software engineers should keep lab notebooks as they work, in addition to just documenting things after the fact. Today, I’m going to share the techniques that I’ve found useful to try to get in the habit of lab-notebooking my work, even though I still feel like I could be better at writing things down. Here’s my advice for keeping a lab notebook as a computer scientist:

Checking out a few videos that people have linked me to recently I thought that this piece was amazing - really great speed. It also looks like the 5D and 7D are really quite awesome at doing 60fps HD! The video presentation over at vimeo is really cool too! PUSH PULL from Landis Fields on Vimeo .

For information, and because it means that I have revoked a bunch of UIDs from my GPG Key I am no longer working at AS5413 (Vialtus, Daisy, GX Networks etc.) as of June 18th, 2010. It's been a good two years, but the company direction no longer co-incides with the direction in which I would like to go. I've enjoyed the projects I've worked on, been in contact with a lot of great people, and learnt a lot!

One of the major reasons I can’t stand webapps is because I’m a serious emacs junkie, and I can’t edit text in anything that doesn’t have decent emacs keybindings. Fortunately, on Linux, at least, GTK provides basic emacs keybindings if you add gtk-key-theme-name = "Emacs" to your .gtkrc-2.0. However, some webapps think that they deserve total control over your keys, and grab key combinations for a WYSIWYG editor of some sort.

I was reading an article about the RISC OS operating system and the fact that it doesn't support multiple CPU cores. Then I got to thinking, how would one implement multi-CPU support on such an operating system? Between 1989 and 1994 I used a British computer running the operating system RISC OS . This operating system is still alive, and is still in use. It was produced by Acorn Computers and runs on the ARM processor (“Acorn Risc M..

Most of the projects I've been working on today have fairly strict code review policies. My work requires code review on most of our code, and as we bring on an army of interns for the summer, I've been responsible for reviewing lots of code. Additionally, about five months ago BarnOwl, the console-based IM client I develop, adopted an official pre-commit review policy. And I have a confession to make: I hate mandatory code review.

Drop pods no longer sit in one place, they now roll around, freely dispersing their monetary goodness among the citizenry. They're quite light too, which means a single grenade can send one flying across the map, with your bots following in hot pursuit. Speaking of maps, Sector X is just about done! It's definitely our most massive map to date, and it has some interesting moments. So far the ring around the top has been great for sniping.

If you’re reading this blog, I probably don’t have to explain why I love GNU screen. I can keep a long-running session going on a server somewhere, and log in and resume my session without losing any state. I also love X-forwarding. I love being able to log into a remote server and work in a shell there, but still pop up graphical windows (for instance, gitk’s) on my local machine when I need to.
