This article suggests that the new iteration of the Facebook app for iOS is written mainly with Web technologies and the fronted runs in a WebView, which explains why it sucks so much more than the previous version. Has anyone else noticed

Cool! Is there anything I can look at to see how async I/O will work? Does all the async support depend on gevent monkey patching (as requests/async.py would suggest)?

This is a shame. Notifo was a great service, and to add insult to injury, I just finished adding Notifo support to my side project ( http://loglet.radbox.org/ ) yesterday . https://github.com/sampsyo/loglet/commit/4b6923f7aaf9b076cdc...

Thanks for this; I've often looked around for resources like this that articulate the core Python team's thoughts and near-term goals. This is the best synopsis I've seen. Unrelatedly, whatever "mobile" Blogger theme that gets served to iPh

You can just yield that invocation. So saying "yield something()" will invoke the "something" coroutine as a sub-thread of the current one, resuming the parent coroutine when it finishes -- exactly like calling a function. PEP 380 will solv

Roadshow ( http://fetchsoftworks.com/roadshow/ ) lets you download videos to your device. I'm not sure if it's suitable for long-term storage like Pinboard is for web pages, but it might do what you want.

I think this a great idea, and I've recently noticed a number of people doing things in more or less the same direction. I've been collecting them: * Deja http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/deja/id417625158?mt=8&uo=... * Squrl http://www

I think the question is about how the kernel can use the GPU. Linux probably doesn't need to train hidden Markov models. It might, however, need to do crypto (e.g., for an encrypted filesystem).

Someone should write a tool that scrapes these results and automatically files bugs at the associated bug trackers for open-source projects.

This looks pretty cool, but as a non-Rubyist, I remain confused about the purpose of all these "DSL" libraries that lispy aims to simplify. In the examples, at least, the language was only used to declaratively build hierarchical list/dicti

Just released a new version of beets, an open-source CLI music management tool for nerds: http://beets.radbox.org/ It's supposed to be an extensible and fast alternative to iTunes, MusicBrainz Picard, and other tools. It's getting there.

This looks awesome. This may seem shallow, though, but when I got to the setup page, I was a little disappointed with the complexity of the setup required. - Why are you using MySQL instead of SQLite or something even simpler? Surely my per

What's with the title of point 3 ("design is gay")? Is the author quoting a homophobic opinion of some Indian programmers, or is he being careless with his own wording?

The "no caching" effect is much less pronounced with fast app switching. Are you on iOS 3.x? Also, in my experience, there are often weird consistency errors in the App Store when something new is rolling out. (I could only see it on my Mac

This is very interesting. However, the OP's idea of "failure" is when something goes wrong with the system -- in this case, ext3 detected an error when trying to write to its journal. It's possible that silent data corruption occurred much
