For Rubyists who wants to play with DCPU-16: https://github.com/judofyr/rcpu It's a DCPU assembler (written in a Ruby DSL) and an emulator/debugger (which allows you to step/run through the execution). Next up I'm going to implement libra

I don't know much about Python, but how does Request/WSGI solve async/long-polling/WebSockets? It would be a shame if they re-did the HTTP stack without solving these issues.

There are two aspects here: One is the visual design, and even the author agrees that it's probably too similar: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3744356 The other is the idea/concept. Creating open-source versions of unique ideas is n

Note that this is from Nov 2011. Since then there's been a massive discussion about handling requires in a multi-thread environment. A lot of the problems with autoload comes from the fact that requiring isn't thread-safe, so if that gets

I'm not against using REPL, but it's not viable to solely write in REPLs, therefore we need to teach "how to run things in files" and then we're back at crappy HTML-files.
621.
by judofyr 15y ago
