Hmm. I haven't looked at RhodeCode. For me Kiln has provided a good UI and workflow and just worked ever since their v2.4 or so. I'm not sure there is a particular best feature, but roughly these features are what come to mind: -

That was a busy meeting and the developer mailing list is very busy. It's great to see continued investment from so many interested parties. Judging by the notes in the wiki [1], however, the purveyors of my preferred server, Kiln, are

Agreed. And yet it is encouraging to see the continued investment and upstream engagement by Facebook and Mozilla. (I knew Facebook and Mozilla were heavily invested; I'm not sure what Google's involvement is since code.google.com

Xamarin.Forms is looking pretty good but still mobile (and Windows 10 UWP) at the moment. Will they extend to OS X and Linux?

Got it. Thanks.

I'm missing the initial assumption. What is the connection between Docker and traction for Go and OCaml? People are using the latter in order to simply avoid containers?

I always thought those language/framework/library cheat sheets were for newbies only, but I'm beginning to see that's not entirely the case.

Yep, the docs are very good, and I've been enjoying catching up on the blog archives, too, for interesting project background and philosophy.

Hence Pixie [1], which builds a Clojure-inspired language on a JIT VM. I'm not sure what the status is, but it appears to be active. [1]: https://github.com/pixie-lang/pixie

I don't see how that could work in tup or any deterministic build system. If there is any possible way to parameterize explicit filenames unique to the stages, that will map better to tup. It requires you to be explicit about every fil

Good point. Email is great when you are part of the conversation and it's in your history. Maybe not so much for digging around later on otherwise.

Can you give an example or two?

Gotta love how easy the "how" part is. Just a 226MB installer and a tiny README, script, and config packaged by the author. I was wishing for something like this for FreeBSD while reading the desktop tutorial [1] last week (2.6GB

I saw this here a few months ago, with interest. Indeed, there is quite a list of language bindings growing there. It seems this could pair nicely with .NET Core and appeal to C# developers who may prefer to transition to a cross-platform U

Cool story about your mother. I'm interested to hear more about the kind of company that supported that transition, how long it took, and what it was like for her.

No love for equal weight? RSP has some interesting performance characteristics. There is the Wilshire 5000 Equal Weight Index, but, alas, no fund tracks it.

True, they do call it a build system toolkit. But I think worse than the others is on the wrong track and the sentiment is too heavily influenced by your negative first impression. swtoolkit made scons really nice to work with (but couldn&#

I'm surprised no one says, "Just use waf." It does all those things. It's fast. It's cross-platform. The language is Python. It's a bit steep to learn and maybe doesn't have the most mature built-in recipe

+1. Bandcamp is the way to support artists, besides being imminently usable for the customer. I find it perplexing when some artists' web sites make the iTunes and Spotify links more prominent and in some cases don't even includ

Same here. Bought one last week and downloaded one that I bought years ago and apparently never downloaded for some reason.

I looked at AsciiDoc and thought it was perfect for authoring. But the toolchain is one aspect where a pandoc-based workflow makes a lot of sense. When I saw AsciiDoc needs DocBook to render a PDF, I had to move on because I remembered how

Yes, which is great for photos and other data. You can move individual apps there, too, but parts of the moved apps still stay on the phone and you can't control this. My wife's phone has all movable apps except Trello moved to SD

And then carriers will sell Android phones with 8GB in which the OS takes 5GB and undeletable apps use 2+GB. But it runs quickly enough in a demo and once you buy it you're stuck.

Touche. Autohotkey can do an awful lot with its custom scripting language, but access to Lua in there would be interesting.

It's the one thing I remembered from my high school US Government teacher. (Or was it Sociology? Same teacher, two classes. What's up, Mr. Swigert?) I always thought it was really cool that he taught us that and it stuck. It had n

He's also mentioned FPGAs in similar terms, but I've not seen any news lately on that topic. Is it not practical? Not worth the effort? This is a different ballgame but interesting, a recent Raspberry Pi 2 experiment [1] demonstra

Header significance to visual weight inversion is the same deal in the lauded orgmode. In both cases, the trick is to see the hash mark weight as indentation instead of significance, or, preferably, configure your editor to weight the heade
