Google said Thursday that it will start selling a 7-inch tablet to developers interested in the company’s Project Tango 3-D motion-capture effort. For the person who has everything (including too much disposable income)

GitHub is an important place, where open source software code is submitted, branched, tweaked, and shared. It is also a playground, where software developer Steve De Jonghe has created a project simply called "Banner." I bet he also used to spell naughty words on his calculator

I saw a URL today on Twitter to an article on Slate.com. It was a custom short URL - http://slate.me/1h0svt8 but since I was visiting it via Twitter, it was wrapped with Twitter's t.co URL, so I really started at http://t.co/sxSvcJnT2L.
When I visited it for the FIRST time, I got this lovely HTTP interaction. That's SEVEN HTTP 301s, count them, 7, before I get to the destination page.
Let's make that shortened URL shorter. And Cookies. Everyone loves Cookies.
I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

If Twitter hadn't imposed their pointless 140 character limit there would be no need for URL shortners in the first place.
|
|

I(f twitter did not have the 140 character limit it would not be twitter.
I'd rather be phishing!

I'm thinking there needs to be a new world record set for the most number of sequential redirects from iteratively shortened URL's.

I hate shortened URLs: where will they lead my browser to?
True, also "good" URLs can harbor malware, but shortened URLs are even more dangerous.

Chrome resolves them for you, if you hover above the link long enough.

The agency has put out a work tender looking for a software system to analyse social media data. The software should have, among other things, the "ability to detect sarcasm and false positives". You don't say.

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

I must confess, I'm relieved
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who separate humankind in two distinct categories, and those who don't.
No sarcasm has been harmed during the establishment of this signature.

GitLab provides a self-hosted open-source collaboration platform intended for software developers. Simply speaking, GitLab is a GitHub that you can install on your own server for free to have full control over your code. Of course, you'd really rather use Workspaces

The aim of this course is to teach the foundations of functional programming and how to apply them in the real world. Learn from the "Head in the Box" himself

What if you could “file a bug on the internet” in a public space where developers, users and browser vendors could be made aware of compatibility issues? A one-stop shop for complaining about browsers

I predict this soon will be overwhelmed with "it doesn't work" sort of "bugs" and other such spam.

Work on Swift—Apple's surprise new programming language unveiled at WWDC—started development four years ago in conjunction with efforts to keep Objective C relevant. Swift now aims to quickly replace Objective C for modern Cocoa development on iOS and OS X. "If you love something, set it free"

The most recent appropriate ear worm would be "Let it go, let it go!".

Wow, finally something interesting to say about Apple for a change! Apparently at Apple’s recent WWDC event they announced a “competitor” to DirectX called “Metal” … as in coding DIRECT to the METAL… get it "The fact that 3D works at all in modern games is probably largely attributable to a small handful of geniuses with sufficient IQ to create tools that have made it accessible to everybody else… with tremendous effort."

The article is very good. Unfortunately, he gets confused towards the end and starts comparing it to CUDA.

Anyone remember QuickDraw 3D?
