Im personally a big fan of the GTD, inbox-zero, todo list, organizing the day kind of guy. If it was possible i would structure everything in that set of rules. A developer is a creative person and creativity isnt always just there. Pleasing that gene can be hard with deadlines and managers but its definitely something both people should look in to.
John Cleese has always been a funny man. I knew he was brilliant and wise but i never knew that he actually looked into things like how to trigger creativity. This is a must see if you love the hole GTD thing.
I was working on my ZFPress project which is a clone of WordPress but in Zend Framework. And one of the features was to add a prefix to the tables. So i looked around but couldnt find any real solution to this. This is what i came up with.
What you would do is extending your tables with the abstract class and use them as you would normally. It’ll then automatically add your prefix from your app.ini if it exists.
I liked Iron Man 2 a great deal. It had some amazing VFX’s and if you want to get an insight on how they where made take a look at Perception NYC‘s case study.
Swedish NeX have made yet another brilliant gameboy mod. This time he has piped out the video signal to a super gameboy cart and then to a svideo output that you can connect to your tv. Brilliant!
If your a vim user, you’ll love Vimium. Vimium is an extension for chrome that’ll let you browse the web using just your keyboard and vim shortcuts. For example, if you want to scroll up use j, and down is mapped to k. Super neat. Fork it right here.
I wish i was there! Just watched the two top runners from this year. I must say that we have come a long way since the old days. Amazing stuff from both Fairlight(en) and Farbrausch(de).
Fairlight ran with the first place with this amazing particle based demo with awesome music. Take a look
Farbrausch had to take the second place with this great demo fr-043:rove. Too bad they couldnt have two first places. This is truly an amazing demo as well!
I gotta make room in the schedule for next years party!
its now 5 days ago I finally got my gameboy tattoo. Check it out!
