Thanks!! Yes, I have planned a couple more. The code is not obfuscated, so you can have a look that them. It's heavily based on my audio-experiments which are open sourced here https://github.com/homecoded/js-synth.…
Here is a thing I built a while back: An 'HTML to 8-Bit-music' converter. This transforms a URL to a Bytebeat formula and uses the HTML of the page behind the URL as input.…
The news ticker at heute.de was pretty sure about it, saying there are two holes each eight square meters in size in reactor 4. Of course I can't say how much truth lies in that statement.
Making things simpler on the net is probably a good thing. I'm worried though about what will happen when the same bad programmers who make mem-leaking and performance consuming flash ads now will jump on the JavaScript…
Good point. But: The library records will have an actual eye witness, though. In that case a real person can confirm that the 'bad guy' got the book personally. That is not the case with online search. The problem I see…
This is completely weird! Worst of all: 45 gardeners and no garden? Brilliant! I'd really like to hear their explanation of how these people ended up on their pay-roll. Maybe they all made offers the hospital could not…
I don't really see a problem here. I think your are on a great path. Well, talk to them. Just don't do something you don't feel like doing. If you want to open-source your stuff do it. Put it under a business-friendly…
There were two websites that really impressed me: apple.com and amazon.com. Amazon has hardly changed. Wow, it already looked great back then! And Apple ... um ... really has gone a long way in design since then. Phew,…
We actually talked about this today in our team since we are trying to find a good name for the new company we are about to form. We decided against hyphens mostly because we thought it's 'just not cool'. There are…
I admire your dedication! You don't have too much to lose, but a lot knowledge to gain. Your bootstrapped approach is great and your time-frame reasonable for a smaller project. Good luck! If I should ever do a start-up…
Ok, it's working now. I like the idea and the sound is pretty good. Most free synthetic keyboards you can get (as in Vst plugins) sound worse. Good job! Unfortunately, I seem to have terrible latency problems in Chrome…
I loved Lemmings. Is used to write the level codes on little post-it notes and stuck them all around me. After a few days my room looked like Mr. Nash's garage in 'A Beautiful Mind'.
Aww, I get a 403 Forbidden error. I'd love to see this.

What is it that you don't like being a software developer?It is kind of hard to completely do something else. I have questioned my being a software developer also in the past. I seriously thought about going back to…
You can always try an NDA. It won't keep anyone from stealing but with a bit of luck you have a bit more meat if you want to take legal actions after someone stole your idea. In the end, it boils down to "an idea isn't…
Well put.
I totally agree! I'd even go one step further and say that you'll be "overworked and underpaid" even at your own start-up. I just had that. No fun! Right now I am going back to a regular day job. And I'm actually…
I'd say this is about right. Even mobile devices have great JavaScript abilities nowadays. Think Android or iPhone. I am still using an ancient Sony Ericsson with Opera Mini and JavaScript works surprisingly well.…
Mhh, not really but that's just me. The email folder works great for me. As I said: The effort of keeping track of my online purchases is not huge. So, another tool is really not necessary. Again, that's just me. ;-)
Well, it crashes Safari on my iPod Touch 2G. I was curious so I looked at the code. IMHO there are only two possibilities: (a) It's the css-font-definition-stuff they're doing (b) google analytics script is causing the…
I have been working (coder, project lead, product owner) in the gaming industry far too long now. I hardly ever play computer games, I hate most of them, and some of the products I was involved in were, simply put, just…
Mhh ... I move all confirmation emails from online purchases in a separate folder on my IMAP. So, I always have a list of all purchases I've made, ordered by date. I don't buy that much stuff online so keeping track…
