  1. Does anyone know if there is a site that lists all of the developer artefacts that have accidentally shipped in closed source projects?
  2. Let's rezone the front steps of the @vpl as a park so we can banish the smokers. Running water, pigeons and trees, why not? #vancouver
  3. Using Vidblaster's Beta virtual video device, I was able to get 30fps demoing an OpenGL game over Skype. Skype sharing only got me 10fps.
  4. @weasello Used trello for a 3 person mini project. It gets thumbs up from me!
  5. 22 hours for a full virus scan on my workstation with security essentials. Microsoft, maybe implement a pause button?
  6. Ugh. Plugged a mod_proxy hole. Always monitor your server logs! apt-get install logwatch
  7. I feel extremely fortunate that @ipsquiggle and @blythegirl are both webdev savvy game developers. Many traditional gamedevs are not!
  8. @panic Coda 2 is wonderful, but how do I easily include a header & footer in my html pages that I can update across a large website?
  9. Look at how far the web and Blizzard have come. The link is to a 1996 archive. web.archive.org/web/1996103009…
  10. @Nelsormensch I get the same ad. Either fb has an inventory problem or gout solution carpet bombing is a smarter move than I think it is.
  11. Instead, we get this media & social msg that it is our patriotic duty to buy CDN. This is misplaced. It harms us & sustains mediocrity.
  12. If Canadians only bought CDN products when there was merit, we'd be forced to produce better things. And then rewarded for the contribution.
  13. "Price trumps moral suasion". Bull. It's unethical to buy less competitive goods. I reject your forced morality, Vancouver Sun.
  14. @EdenIndustries Whaaat? You're supposed to overlap your old & new ISP services and quietly switch your DNS. Come on, man. :)
  15. There's an eclipse outside right now. Unfortunately, it's clouds eclipsing the sun.
