   I've used them all to good effect, but I don't think it's fair to call them similar to Gooey. They require a bit of tinkering to work and your script has to adapt to running with a GUI. Zero effort to turn your ArgumentParser

   I just want to second this, I didn't fully understand networking until I wrote my own stack and threw packets on the wire. A simple stack with ARP/ICMP/IP/UDP can be written in a day and seeing your very own ping packets

   1 MHz, and while I only implemented UDP in my stack ( https://github.com/oliverschmidt/ip65 ), Jonno Downes took over and added TCP later. There's also Adam Dunkels uIP and Doc Bacardi's HTTP-Load. So yes, if a

   Since Amit's apparently here reading, great job on updating your A* introduction (which was already excellent!), I really like how you break it down piece by piece. While it's a very simple algorithm at its core, there are some re

   The font rendering in Atom is what's currently keeping me from giving it a serious try: http://discuss.atom.io/t/atom-vs-textmate-font-rendering/907...

   I think you have a third party OpenSSL installed. On an unmodified 10.9.2 you get: $ sw_vers ProductName: Mac OS X ProductVersion: 10.9.2 BuildVersion: 13C64 $ openssl version OpenSSL 0.9.8y 5 Feb 2013

   I don't think it's particularly fair to lump Apple with the rest since 14 years later [1] the core OS is still open source [2], and they're actively working on several high profile open source projects (e.g. Webkit, CUPS, and

   This came up in a discussion I had with a tech at Disney Animation. The biggest issue is actually getting the assets from the workstation over to the rendering farm. Since the assets for a single scene can be many gigabytes using someone el

    This is probably the most common way to handle jump tables on the 6502. If you're writing ROMable code you'll have to use indirect jmp (vector) instead of selfmod. It's more efficient to split the jump table into two halves though, with the

    I read Zaks' book back when, but it was rather dry and these days I'd recommend Machine Language for the Commodore 64 by Jim Butterfield instead.

    Yes, Western Design Center is selling the 65C02 in the classic 40-pin DIP package for about $5 a pop. The last time I checked, which admittedly was almost 10 years ago, microcontrollers with embedded 6502 cores were quite popular with chine

    So maybe just define_opt('server.daemon'), with the rest given sane defaults and customizable as needed? Interesting module nonetheless!

    Incidentally, this is how AmigaDOS handled it and applications were expected to call ReadArgs() to deal with it: http://tbs-software.com/guide/index.php?guide=autodocs.doc%2Fdos.doc&node=105

    Yes, please use Platypus instead, it'll save you a lot of trouble. The article's solution is very hackish and as you can tell from the comments you'll run into lots of issues.

    They want the catalog to look cheap though, and Verdana certainly helps with that… The font nerd in me died a little bit when they switched.

    For some reason I tend to get Google's authentication pages in Hungarian (at least I think that's what it is), despite being in Sweden with sv_SE/sv/en_US/en configured in the browser and Google's services set to use English. Fun!
