A lot of media apps in Windows 95 need to thunk down to 16-bits for solid, interrupt driven timing that wasn't possible in 32-bits without shipping a "device driver".

I was diagnosed with a DVT three weeks ago. The perfect storm of sedentary lifestyle (though I do work standing up about 66% of the day), overweight, smoking and falling asleep for 10 hours straight on a flight from Vietnam to NYC with my

As someone who writes some pretty hardcore UIs in Cocoa, this reactive style stuff seems applicable to a pretty narrow class of application. The more you fight Cocoa, which I believe this stuff does, the bigger the mess you'll create f

I don't think his name is real. I live in Vietnam and when I showed this to my wife, who in turned showed it to her cousins, everyone was fairly incredulous claiming that there is no way this was a real Vietnamese name. Bich is not a l

We were getting the haze here in Saigon, Vietnam. Seems better this week though, but before that it was the worst I've seen it in five years living here. I was definitely cleaning out more black stuff from nose than normal. I do think

I downloaded the trial and gave it a spin. The indexing is super fast, even when I had it index a 4TB external drive. Nice. Can't move the input and it always shows on the second monitor, no matter what one I am working in. Not so sur

I'm an expat living in Vietnam, and all consular services cost money upfront. Collecting social security is collecting on the SS taxes you already paid, so it doesn't have anything to do with anything. Trust me, it is as close to

Shirako is one of my favorite dishes, though the first time I ate it nobody told me what it was until we were in the cab ride home from the restaurant. I was wondering why my ex-wife's mom kept giggling during dinner.

I'm not sure what you are proposing is a good API design though. There are plenty of times using KVO where you only want to subscribe for a certain transition of state, well within the lifecycle of either objects. And I'm not eve

I'm guessing the new/old value is a carry over from how KVO works and could be useful for a few cases. Holding a ref to the subscriber so that it can be unsubscribed.

This particular client has a few hundred thousand images and tens of thousands of animated gifs. It's the animated gifs that take forever because they have to be processed with gifsicle and then converted to mpeg-4. Imgix does all of t

Imgix is the middle, they process the parameters once and cache the result.

I love imgix to death, really the only web service I use daily that constantly amazes me. I've been using them for a few clients now and it's been a fundamental shift in how we think about media management in the CMS. Rolling out

So nuance makes it better. Also, I have to call bullshit. Unless you are hanging out at a Klan rally, or maybe your relatives live in a trailer park, the likelihood of hearing any of that is slim to non-existant.

New Yorkers walk more than any other city I've lived in. In fact, about a year after I moved out of NYC to Saigon I gained quite a few extra pounds because I wasn't walking nearly the same amount. Which used to be about 5-6 miles

People leave you alone in Vietnam. The times I've been in Thailand, people were always in my grill. Nobody seems particularly interest in me here, which coming from NYC is a treasured thing. When they are interested in you, it seems

It is pretty high. My three bedroom apartment, including the nanny, is around $800 a month and it's in the second nicest area in Saigon. 2 bedroom apartments in the newer buildings like Sunrise City, Stella, etc. are twice that though

I gotta call bullshit. I've lived in Saigon for five years and the only expats that fit that description are the losers that haunt Bui Vien. But there's a Bui Vien in every city in every country in SE Asia. How exactly do you in

The 1980's were pretty bad here with the famine and rice rationing, etc. and I think that's kind of been carried over. So you get a lot of rude, selfish behavior like cutting in line, lack of queueing, general lack of courtesy. T
