“

Leave the APIs details in the documentation and look it up when needed.

Details grow irrelevant fast. Concepts on the other hand will serve you much longer and will be present in whatever new technology you are going to use.

“Though this isn’t yet an important dynamic, as the Boomers retire, and take with them a lot of knowledge of early geological layers of the software-eaten planet, managing risk around old software will turn into a major business. When the last veterans of the earliest still-in-use software layers start to die, we will be in historically unprecedented territory.”

Greg Wilson - What We Actually Know About Software Development, and Why We Believe It’s True (by CUSEC)

Great talk.

If you develop software, you should watch it.

If you manage people that develop software, you should watch it daily.

Michael Mason, editor of This Land Press, interviews Luke Crouch during the first Tulsa Hackathon, which took place this weekend at Fab Lab Tulsa.

I can occasionally be seen in my red t-shirt, but it’s worth watching anyway.

Modernizr, Polyfills, and HTML5 Boilerplate (presentation)

Modernizr, Polyfills, and HTML5 Boilerplate (presentation):

The slides from the talk I gave at Tulsa TechFest 2011.

My presentation modus operandi is to improvise my talk with my slides as prompts, so this may not be very informative on its own. There are quite a few useful links in there, though.

The talk was recorded by UserGroup.tv, so it should be available online in a month or so. I’ll post a link when it’s up, unless it makes it humiliatingly obvious that it’s my first public presentation.

Official Google Blog: Time, technology and leaping seconds

Fri, 16 Sep 2011 11:45:46 -0400

Official Google Blog: Time, technology and leaping seconds:

The solution we came up with came to be known as the “leap smear.” We modified our internal NTP servers to gradually add a couple of milliseconds to every update, varying over a time window before the moment when the leap second actually happens. This meant that when it became time to add an extra second at midnight, our clocks had already taken this into account, by skewing the time over the course of the day. All of our servers were then able to continue as normal with the new year, blissfully unaware that a leap second had just occurred.

Genius.

I love how every time I’m about to write something for myself, the Interwebs provide a better solution than I’d have made.¹

This time around it’s Trello, simple web based task boards.
