uWSGI is capable of serving PHP, mind.

Funnily enough, I remember Blue Moon better for SkyRoads. I wrote a semi-clone of it in Qbasic (learning a bit about 3D projection on the way). I later ported it naïvely to Python and it ran slower. :D

Try adding a --pythonpath or --chdir that points to the project directory in addition to the -H pointing to the venv.

Heads up - that's circa 2004.

Well, no matter the CPU power, etc. but I can tell you my Galaxy S3 still manages to exhibit (occasionally infuriatingly) long lag spikes when opening the browser; SMS messaging app; gallery (both built-in and QuickPic)... and other tasks.

Heh, many production sites still use Cufon, mind. :)

Or if it works at all like Scrubby ( http://nornagon.github.com/scrubby/ ) which was on HN a couple days ago, it might rewrite all constants into global lookup table indexes, which surely wreaks havoc on performance.

Plain and simple (if you could ever call it that) exploratory programming? The sort that yields stuff like Jared Tarbell's stuff http://levitated.net/daily/index.html and many Chrome Experiments, etc.

I found this pretty interesting from an Internet subculture studies viewpoint. Anyone happen to know any other similar studies/experiments?

Deity Here, yes. OneNote is one of those pieces of software I use honestly daily - bi-hourly, more or less, if only for Win+S - and no one knows about it! "Copy Text From Image" is also simply great. And I also use it to quickly document se

But wget and curl aren't for humans, whereas HTTPie is. I've done plenty of `wget -m -np`s (and `puf -r` when I've had to saturate my Internet pipe...) which isn't what HTTPie does.

Nope, I didn't. I just accidentally stumbled upon this algorithm some years ago and ported it recently to HTML5.

Yep, one does. That's what happened. :) But this struck me as particularly weird for being so intricate being based on such a simple variation of the basic pixel-by-pixel floodfill formula.

OP (well, discoverer of the algorithm) here: Thing is there is no per-step randomness. The small integer (pickOffset) only adds some variation to the algorithm, and is initialized only when you hit Space. I'm pretty sure that if pickOffset

If you also want coloring (I know I would), Pygments - http://pygments.org/ - outputs PDF via LaTeX.

The import hack is the only thing I don't really like (I'd prefer the `from pbs import sh` syntax proposed elsewhere) -- and without reading the code... is piping really piping, or will the function composition example actually consume the

The idea's nice (though it'll take approximately forever for anything akin to this to land here in Finland). I was annoyed by the quality of the copy here though... no one ran it through any sort of spell check? http://getpunchd.com/img/ju
