Can't really post a screenshot for either since they're not very visual, but I want to mark my accomplishment somehow. Hopefully this isn't a thread faux pas? I finally got fallbacks for midroll video ads in my company's Android app to work - I think. Backwards-compatible videos between 20-minute videos, where not losing your state is important, is the most painful thing ever on Android. Ugh. I'm stoked I got the hard part done, though. (but I wish people would just pay their $7 for no ads.) Next is requesting ad metadata, integrating our good-enough VAST parser, ad quartile pings, and clickthrough UI. At home, I've got a netboot+NFS+kickstart setup scripted to automatically and fully install a VM, complete with custom hostname, VMWare Tools (as I'm using ESXi), and Puppet. Turns out, if you specify a http repository during install, it'll download then install, whereas it'll go straight to installing from an NFS repository. Now if only I could script starting a VM on ESXi without having to pay for a license (I'm using the free version).

Suspicious Dish posted:Git and Users. Pretty sure Google Code offers git. Regardless, GitHub offers an audience. If you don't mind obscurity, and aren't inclined to facilitate collaboration with other people, I think there's no real problem with Google Code.

Maluco Marinero posted:So I've been working on a personal organiser that uses Getting Things Done principles, it has note taking, calendars, projects and tasks. This is a proof of concept that is entirely offline based using HTML5. It'll cache the whole website so you can take it offline, and the only functionality you'll lose is the embedded Google Maps and Directions. This would be a nice elaboration on top of Fantastical, which I currently use to enter in calendar events in natural language. I'll try it out.

FYI, the smitematter review on your page is a broken link. Also consider including the quotes since I'm less interested in clicking through than just hearing validation (which presumably is honest).

Keebler posted:Wow nice, that's a lot of work! Are you also writing your own emulator for the SNES or using something off the shelf? There are off-the-shelp hardware implementations of the SNES available?

SourceForge? Really? What advantages do you see SF giving you over, say, GitHub?

Mug posted:Yahoo Hacker News Heh, Hacker News isn't a part of Yahoo. Think of it as a particularly large and influential subreddit that manages to moderate itself somewhat better than average. It skews older than Reddit and slightly towards higher-quality discussion - though it's been suffering from member growth and occasionally a bit too much hypercritical criticism. In any case, the press you've been getting is impressive! I wonder if the wave of coverage can last long enough for you to ride it into a lot of release-day sales. As some have said, there's a novelty angle to the coverage. Once the "omg it's QBASIC" buzz plays itself out, they might move on to the next something-or-other for no particular reason. Good luck, in any case.

Tres Burritos posted:I'm going to second not liking that font, if we're giving feedback. It looks cool. But it's hard for me to read. To be honest, I'm reading it as 900D rather than as "GOOD", though common sense lets me know that it's obviously the latter.

yaoi prophet posted:You should post this somewhere that's not behind the paywall and submit it to Reddit, HN, and wherever else you think would fit. This is completely batfuck of them. Making it a PR problem for TI will be payback on a guy strongly suspected of taking credit, but don't come off too strong. If it really was a miscommunication or someone other than the guy being a dick you don't want to be left looking like an enormous jerk that jumped to conclusions. IMO. don't be a coward and imply that this could really be a huge mistake, but don't come out guns blazing ready to torch this motherfucker. Light the fire and trolls will keep flaming, facts be damned. Just tell your story.
