Ahh good memories. I wrote Pente for PalmOS back in 2004 or 2005, complete with a computer opponent using a minimax tree with alpha/beta pruning. Unfortunately I never finished or released it. It was so much fun to do…

Also big fan of vagrant global-status. I have it aliased to vgs in my terminal. Also very helpful for those using Vagrant on OSX is Vagrant Manager [0] which gives you menu-bar integration and a quick interface to turn…
I enjoyed this, and was impressed that it was written by a high school senior.

What, "d-d-d-d-d-duh," "duhhhh-duhhhhh-duhhhh," and "BREHHHHK BREHHHHK BREHHHHK" didn't do it for you?

Also big and clear enough to be seen on screen.
I had a strange experience where my cable company's mobile app, which streams most channels, was missing audio on a few channels. After escalating the issue to an engineer, he finally got back to us and told us that if…
