Re:A simple git branching model on Friday September 27, 2013 @08:00AM (#6456481)
I'm not convinced on the bisect issue either. I've personally done a bisect spanning 10000 changesets with 50 concurrent branches at the widest point. Found the problem right away.

We follow a similar branching model. Master is kept clean. We do all development on feature branches and merge when complete. History is fully preserved. History is a mess but it works well overall.

Re:Poll: What keyboard layout do you use? on Tuesday December 27, 2011 @08:07PM (#3398172)
Qwerty and Colemak. I sometimes use Qwerty when I am chatting while gaming or when on someone else's computer - though about 2/3 as fast.

I find that I don't have to actively think about what layout I am typing in, it just flows. I imagine bilinguists have a similar experience.

I chose Colemak primarily because it doesn't mess with common shortcuts (Bottom-left keys "qwarzxcvbm" remain the the same positions).

Some interesting dialog here.

MARCEL BROODTHAERS: Students I think could benefit from this greatly. Vast networks of students. Youth must be provided with the means to grasp this opportunity.

RONALD REAGAN: Sounds a bit out of control to me.

I can vouch for this approach. When I was younger I discovered the magic of the Winamp AVS Editor. I would not be developing software today if I hadn't of discovered it.

It should be possible to perform audio analysis within the shader using the Web Audio API. Google has some demos [1] that seem to do this sort of thing though they don't seem to work for me.

These new APIs have me quite excited :)

There is nothing to stop one from using reflection to ensure the types are correct at runtime...
