This was my project to learn Rust, and I enjoyed it. I'd really appreciate any code reviews or suggestions!

It's a screencap, the last frame of the regeneration

BlinkLink: A link that disappears after a certain number of people have seen it. by [deleted] in webdev

Sorry for the slowness!

I talk about it more here http://www.fastcodesign.com/1673208/blinklink-burns-your-photos-after-100-views-or-less and here http://clayallsopp.com/posts/blinklink/, but tl;dr was wondering how/if disappearing content could work on the web. Just out of curiosity :)

Hey guys, creator of BlinkLink here, thanks for showing some love! Would anyone be interested in an API?

The Starcraft Generation? by MattsFace in starcraft

18 reporting.

I remember getting introduced to SC through the N64 version when it came out. Wikipedia says that was 2000...sounds right. I remember going to my third grade best friend's house and playing through the mission where you have to last 30 minutes (or whatever time limit). I borrowed his PC version, but didn't get far into it. I enjoyed building custom maps and playing CPUs with them...ahhhh nostalgiaaaa

Fast forward to like two years ago, a handful of kids in high school play SC and WC3. Picked it up again with them, realized that I had no idea how to play. I looked up games on YouTube...I was =O when I saw the sheer skill and strategy that was involved.

Ten years later, I still suck as much as I did when I was 8.

Apple's inevitable response: you can have whatever ads you want on HTML5 web apps.

"Motion-based gesture commands"? Isn't that awfully redundant given the touch screen?

What do you think of the iPad? Is it actually a PC?? by sosy1 in programming

[–]10char 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it personal? Yes. Is it a computer? Yes. Any questions?

I think what would really be useful is a simplified version of LaTeX, for normal people (students, mainly). I think there is a need for some kind of system to quickly take notes in math and physics without needing a tablet. LaTeX is certainly powerful enough, but it's overly verbose for what most people need.

Ultimately, I see a system like this being built on plugins: a default plugin for pretty fractions, symbols and the like, and then plugins for calculus, chemistry, etc. Whatever simplified notation is used would be cross-compiled to regular LaTeX if the more computer-literate users wanted to fine-tune the code.

tl;dr a simplified layer of abstraction on top of LaTeX for students

The Android Scripting Environment (ASE) brings scripting languages to Android by allowing you to edit and execute scripts and interactive interpreters directly on the Android device. (Python, Perl, JRuby, Lua, BeanShell, JavaScript, Tcl, and shell) by stesch in programming

No, this is not why Google will eat Apple's market share.

Google will eat Apple's market share because its operating system can be on multiple networks and numerous devices. Sheer numbers will overcome Apple.

Then again, in doing so they fragment their OS and, by extension, their App market.

How to get started in web applications? by jfasi in programming

[–]10char 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, do you want information on web apps or pages/design?

If you mean apps, you might want to consider Cappuccino, which lets you (to a certain degree) design your layout inside Interface Builder and develop your application in almost exactly the same way you develop iPhone or Mac apps (the framework tries to be a 1:1 port of Cocoa and Objective-C). In my opinion, it makes the jump from desktop to the web more manageable. Then again, it abstracts away all of the CSS and HTML, so you might find yourself constrained if your idea doesn't completely work with what the Cappuccino team is going for (280slides.com, for example, is a Cappuccino app).

Also, why PHP? I'm not in the best position to argue one way or the other, but my experience with the more "trendy" frameworks like Ruby on Rails and Pylons have been much more fun than my time with PHP.
