As an alternative to getting a smart tv and treating it dumb, I came across this dumb tv a few weeks ago: ironcast.tv

Would it be ridiculous to write a Flash game then package it with Electron bundled with a Flash Player? I feel like the issues most people have with Flash are one of two things. It isn't a great choice for rich interfaces (especially t

Is the difference that Apple product launches are (not exclusively) intended for consumers whereas the Wall is aimed almost exclusively at large business's lobbies?

Crystal is wonderful for one-off programs in my experience. Elixir had a long startup time for one-off scripts in my experience, but Elixir’s syntax is still one of my favorites for scripting.

It's always nice to see a blog that doesn't have ads or even a Google tracking snippet. :)

Crystal is definitely type safe, I’d recommend taking a look at the Lucky web framework also written in Crystal.

Glitch is pretty neat: it’s sits somewhere in between something like Codepen and something like Github, with some nifty VCS features that new programmers don’t have to think about.

I think they mean the word "Fiancee" which refers to a woman that is engaged to be married.

It almost looks like there's a port in the top that expansions attach to. However, in the specifications, there is no expansion port listed. This makes me think that stacking is simply stacking, then we use a usb cable to attach the pi

It defeats part of the purpose of being an "always in your computer" device, but you could always get a USBA female to USBC male adapter (similar to this https://images-eu.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/4

For most businesses, probably not. I have a few friends that have Etsy shops as hobbies. They don't consistently make enough money from it to justify paying for a Shopify, etc site. So I figured I'd see if I could manage to get th

You can purchase a modem as a separate device that you could then use with any router. It could save you some money depending on whether or not your ISP charges you for renting their hardware.

There are ways to actually run your application for free using the big players' free services. One route I've looked at for e-commerce is storing product data on Stripe, hosting product pages with Netlify, pulling product data d

Privacy.com is a really neat service. I'm pretty disappointed that all banks don't already have this feature built in (I know some do).

I think it would be easy enough for the go compiler to support macros, while keeping them disabled by default. There could be a cli flag for go build that enables macros. It would be easy to have a company-wide rule to keep macros disabled.

A lot of people that love Ruby and dislike Crystal seem to dislike Crystal for reasons like what you mentioned. I'm pretty sure that you can get a sorted list of methods in Crystal (not with the same syntax unfortunately) at compile ti

If larger companies (eg. Stripe) would put more effort into improving Crystal instead of improving Ruby, Crystal would absolutely blow Ruby out of the water. Instead we get improvements to Ruby because larger companies have larger codebases

You'll need to have Javascript enabled to see the page. Mint's website is written in Mint, which is a compile-to-javascript front-end language that "tries to solve most common issues of Single Page Applications".

The two caste hierarchy is my biggest issue with Golang. Macro capability exists in Golang, but only for the upper caste of language creators. It makes me feel like the language creators of Golang purposefully decide that users of the langu

It's very early and certainly not production ready, but this is the idea behind Electrino ( https://github.com/pojala/electrino )

Why not simply have your webserver remember what state the door _should_ be in? Maybe don't rely on that from a security standpoint (eg. GET /garage/status => "closed, everything is secure"), but I suspect it wou

That's an image that is a screenshot of the extension working. Not a link to a demo. I made the same mistake :D

"Try Macro now for free." makes me think that at some point you'll be charging for the Macro. Are there any plans to monetize in the future?

I expect to see rails slowly die off over the next decade, with many rails developers moving to either Elixir-based web framework Phoenix or something written in Crystal. There are a few web frameworks in Crystal, but none are fully complet

Slack handles this quite well actually. I know a lot of people dislike Slack for a lot of valid reasons, but they handle a few things right. If I type a message on Slack saying "hey, @alice, what's up?" then "@alice&quot
