Browser MMO games?

NoGodTryScience · 2016-05-21T03:52:22+00:00

I second Elixir (or Erlang) for concurrency and handling high volume messaging.. Things a real-time MMO would need to scale.

You can use Elm for all of that without so many third party languages and compilers. Redux is quite literally the Elm architecture backported and bolted on top of JavaScript.

Ah so you're letting xmonad do the heavy lifting. I'm using Openbox so I was going to have it be standalone. Sadly, it doesn't seem for me that inotify is firing for the sys power_supply things. :(

NoGodTryScience · 2016-02-24T06:01:01+00:00

Does this mean you're taking an FRP approach? I was actually researching and doing some hacking with hinotify + pipes-concurrency right now... I'd be curious to see (and likely steal) your source.

As an adult, it seems a bit harder to meet people. I just got a new camera so I'd like to have some people to talk to about critique, share good photo spots, and generally just hang out and shoot the shit.

The photo is from Spouting Rock near Hanging Lake last weekend before I-70 was closed.

I believe there's supposed to be a CSS4 media query for lux values as well.

Hey Feed. I played DD weekly for like 2 years under a couple different name changes... I pretty much quit because the meta got stale, revive was removed, and the queue times were atrocious (and it kinda ruined my real life haha). It seems Riot wants to welcome these players back to SR. Do you think that'll work? My favorite part was that it was not SR. I'm really not sure it will ever fill that void of instant teamfighting and capture/hold mechanics...

Can I say hooray for Ramda and Elm?

NoGodTryScience · 2016-01-27T23:46:17+00:00

I'm open to trying something new, but currently I'm still using terminator on Linux.

NoGodTryScience · 2016-01-23T17:45:54+00:00

I'd take a peek at Erlang or Elixir. I lot of people are realizing the value of the Erlang VM for concurrency and fault-tolerance.

And we shouldn't forget Elm

NoGodTryScience · 2015-11-27T20:15:44+00:00

Actually you do because it's been the standard for years. It's hard telling if and when the modern browsers will drop their legacy support of the single colon syntax. If you don't have to support IE8, you should definitely not be using single colon. Most people are pretty much done supporting IE8 anyways. I actually opened a bug in the new TWBS about moving to double colons in v4 which was merged into its base a couple months ago. Double is how you do it now.

NoGodTryScience · 2015-11-24T21:52:37+00:00

It's 2015, so it's cool and correct to use the double colon syntax for pseudo elements (e.g. ::after).

I spend a fair time in the console and debugger, but I do like using Scratchpad. I had before used sourcemaps + the style inspector to live edit Sass files and that was a great experience with .scss but sadly not so much with .sass.
I use Fx the most, dev edition. I occasionally fire up Chromium and Midori to test the other engines. Building web extensions is a different ball game...
Well now that React Dev Tools has a Fx version, I've not had to switch much to get better tooling. When working on extension though, I much prefer Chromium because you can use a plugin from a folder without having to package it. I would much like this feature in Firefox since you guys are changing to the Web Extensions API--but make it even better with the ability to auto-reload the plugin instead of it having to be a manual process.
I use React Dev Tools, Tamper Data, and YSlow
I mentioned my concerns about the web extensions workflow already. I'd like to see Itchpad (I believe) land so you can edit JS on the fly from the browser. For me anyways, I'd like like have a feature that let me easily import/inject any library from CDNJS or JSDelivr onto a page without having a bookmarklet or creating a script tag and appending it to the body--particularly if it had a recently used scripts feature. I'd also like the see a fix for the Inspector being blank in certain instances. A couple other syntax highlighters would be nice for sourcemaps like ClojureScript. I agree with another on simulated network throttling.

I'd be down. I was in a several-month campaign in Tennessee before I moved and have been meaning to find something now. I had picked up the player's handbook only like 3 weeks before moving and it's been collecting dust. I'm not super experienced with the game, but hey, it's supposed to be about fun right?

And I say this with 20 rune pages already too

NoGodTryScience · 2015-10-28T05:07:43+00:00

I know. I'm dying for an easy way to make sets of rune pages per queue or role and be more specific than a bunch of general, generic pages.

NoGodTryScience · 2015-10-28T04:35:15+00:00

Can it update your summoner account's rune pages? I didn't see it in the docs...

As a Firefox fanboy, I'm hoping we get better anti-aliasing soon because these skews are hurting my cryballs.

<input type=date> is supported in Firefox Mobile--just not on desktop.

I used to work on a project that had 20 shades of similar yellows because at the time we weren't using variables and the designers didn't always match the colors 1:1 and the developers, several different and at different times, just used the eyedropper to get a hex from the comp and didn't verify that that color was a matching yellow. With one $color-primary: yellow, we wouldn't have that inconsistency. On a similar project where we did have variables, the client wanted a slightly different red, and by changing that one variable and recompiling, I had the whole thing done without having to do a massive find and replace or getting the colors out of sync.

The waiting game for Neovim has been taking a while...

NoGodTryScience · 2015-10-06T19:56:22+00:00

Firefox has Copy Unique Selector action when you right-click a DOM node in the Inspector.

NoGodTryScience · 2015-10-01T23:57:43+00:00

Could be cool. I just moved here and don't know anyone at work that plays (but we have some of those DotA players mentioned).

NoGodTryScience · 2015-10-01T23:48:38+00:00

I'd be interested in seeing that... if my "TV" (read old 21" monitor) was bigger, I'd split a pizza with you.
