In a similar vein, there's also this 2008 blog post about DPaint which nailed a UI concept I kind of sensed but couldn't articulate: "The importance of Exuberance in User Experience" (Site seems to be down right now,…
I definitely want Palette colour cycling! But getting some support in there for layers is my current priority. Development is driven by whatever missing feature currently annoys me the most :-) I use…
I feel compelled to plug my own DPaint-inspired app: http://evilpixie.scumways.com/ You can tell it's a really professional project because I wrote a press release for the last version:…
SEEKING WORK - Christchurch, New Zealand or Remote Currently fluent in: golang, c/c++, python, php Looking for interesting part time or one-off coding jobs. Homepage: http://scumways.com Github:…
Oop - thanks! I've had it running on OSX, but haven't tried it recently. I'd expect there to be a few hiccups, but nothing fundamental.
You're not the only one who thinks fondly of DPaint! shameless plug: here's the paint program I've been working on: http://evilpixie.scumways.com/ (the most up-to-date code is the 'rgba' branch in github:…
Or, as Jarvis Cocker put it: "Shit floats" :-)

From their white paper: The technology used by Secret Media makes sure that each ad gets a specific URL that cannot be nor found not added to EasyList by the community. I don't quite understand why they think this would…
That kind of site appears to be soooo easy to get media coverage for. I wrote a blog post a couple of years back covering a similar UK-based site and how good they were at getting stories planted in the papers. Those…
It doesn't really have a depth buffer - only enough for a single scanline at a time.
> Are there countries that use slashes for d/m/y? Oh yes, loads of them. Lots more than use m/d/y anyway. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country Canada looks the most hellish, eg: "Immigration Canada…
Along somewhat similar lines, my own date/time-parsing library for golang: https://github.com/bcampbell/fuzzytime I wrote it to parse dates and times in news articles and blog posts. Still a work-in-progress, but…
Cool - will definitely install! I've been working on some projects along similar lines. First one is http://churnalism.com/extension Browser extensions which check news articles against a central database of press…
I'm veering toward thinking of bootstrap as more of a naming convention than anything else. I've been using it recently and it's nice enough, but feels a bit heavyweight for the sorts of things I want to use it for. In…
Penny Arcade have been running a public information campaign on punctuation for a few years now... http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2003/07/07 (and http://www.penny-arcade.com/archive/results/search&keywords=... )
Don't forget about The Muppets!
I'm running Ubuntu on a Thinkpad X230 (with the IPS screen), and loving it. The windows 7 install it came with was the usual crapware trainwreck, but not really my problem - the Ubuntu install was quick, smooth and…
