The timing isn't great for me to show anything, but I'm working on a UI framework that is exclusively vector graphics based. A few of the interesting things that I've come up with so far are: screenshots can be exported as S

I met a programmer many years back who had previously been a physicist at CERN. I'd never have guessed but I think he picked up the programming bug there. If you think coding is your thing then go for it and all the best to you!

Magnesium supplements did it for me. I needed to take them for an unrelated reason - eye tremors - and the first time I took them I was suddenly overcome with tiredness that night. I've been taking them ever since to keep my sleep regu

The findings seem a little off to me. My father was 26 when I was born and he was a leather cutter, so our family wasn't advantaged in any way. He was also a hopeless parent and played very little part in my personal development, des

Totally agree with this. I'm reminded of when I interviewed with Amazon a few years back and it was clear that the questions were best suited to filtering down to the best graduates. In my mid 30's I was too rusty to satisfy the

Agreed, I bought a used one 10 years ago and I'm sitting on it right now. Before that I was replacing foam office chairs every few years due to wear or degassing, but not so with the Aeron. The only maintenance I've had to do is

Here's a best guess based on my knowledge of actually having written a SVG rendering pipeline: The R and B colour switch in conjunction with the fact that this problem only occurs at non-right angles would indicate that there's a

It's an interesting stat, but the chart doesn't speak as to the levels of experience of the traders. All beginners lose money, but it's entirely possible for an amateur to become a profitable day trader with time. Speaking f

I work on a project that uses Free type for text and an improved version of AntiGrain for SVG rendering. The thought of using AGG for the font rendering has already crossed my mind, but mainly for reducing the size of the codebase. Speed i

I'd drink to that, XPath is incredibly useful and easily mastered. I'm also fond of XSD and XSLT myself. They can be obtuse at times, but have been indispensable in the use cases that I've needed them for.

2000 was 16 years ago, so it's important to understand that NZ is no longer the same country that you knew. I left in 2005 for the UK and can't imagine returning to NZ to live (last time I visited was 2010). Here's just a f
