MadRabbit··on Show HN: Meet the rockstar programmer keyboard layout

you're so cute when you try to look all grownup and important )

MadRabbit··on Open-sourcing my new blogging engine implementation
looks like it works perfectly
MadRabbit··on Open-sourcing my new blogging engine implementation
fair point. thanks!

no problem. i didn't touch anything yet. but i did optimize it for iphone5 at some point, so that might be it.

but, thank you for letting me know about it either way! :)

because that's an extra moving part, i will have to handle those compiled files separately, collect them somewhere, copy to S3 or whatevers. I don't want that. I want a simple thing that has just the content and a shallow presentation layer that just shows the content in a browser, that's it. No extra transformations or anything, this way the system is immediate and simple. markdown + front-end, no other moving parts

all search engines are javascript enabled those days. google indexes nikolay.rocks perfectly. i have analytics running and everything on it

i used jekyll as well, and it's alright. this thing gives you the same workflow minus dependency on ruby runtime or a specific hosting platform that supports jekyll (like github for example).

i just write stuff and git push it to heroku

that's like saying that "if you can't print it on punch cards it's all bad". the progress didn't stop with lynx. probably good 90% of the modern internet won't work without javascript

thanks! i don't have a small android, but i'll see if i can fix it with some google chrome emulator on desktop
MadRabbit··on Open-sourcing my new blogging engine implementation
i use the engine for some commercial work at the moment, i might open-source it eventually as well (if there is enough interest in it). but at the moment it's just a bunch of make-shift scripts thrown together which are not really in a publisheable shape

there is no server side
MadRabbit··on Open-sourcing my new blogging engine implementation
thanks! :)
MadRabbit··on Open-sourcing my new blogging engine implementation
all the content is open-sourced and available on github as markdown all nice and readable without any engine at all! https://github.com/MadRabbit/nikolay.rocks/blob/master/pages...

that's true, but you need a ruby environment and some hooks to build Jekyll

I didn't want to build a new _generator_. I wanted a self-containing thing that doesn't need a runtime environment

MadRabbit··on I think I have built a video player for cats and it works
that is a brilliant idea, thanks!
MadRabbit··on Building Street Fighter II in Ruby [video]
considering rubymotion, i think ruby is still a feasible option though
MadRabbit··on Building Street Fighter II in Ruby [video]
when i have time for it, yes. that would be my next sprint on the project
MadRabbit··on Building Street Fighter II in Ruby [video]
hey Senthil, thanks for the fix! just rolled out a new version to rubygems :)
MadRabbit··on Building Street Fighter II in Ruby [video]
hey, no problem. send me a pull request! ;)
MadRabbit··on Building Street Fighter II in Ruby [video]
yeah i saw that one. it's alright. i'd do the sprites mapping in css with `clip` though :)
MadRabbit··on Building Street Fighter II in Ruby [video]
it's actually easier to write it in css than in ruby as it has all the animations toolset already in place
MadRabbit··on Building Street Fighter II in Ruby [video]
looks awesome, thanks for the link!
MadRabbit··on UnderOS 1.4.0 (a rubymotion based project) is out
you can click the header link and go to the landing page it has information about the project
MadRabbit··on Single Page Apps Access Handling With AngularJS
well it is implemented on the backend anyways, but you still need to handle the restrictions on the front-end somehow as well, right? coz backend API and the front-end are not always a 1 to 1 match of resources
MadRabbit··on The trick to good software design
the problem is that TDD doesn't magically lead you to good software design if you don't know what the hell you're doing :)

i believe you also can set `{ *zoom: 1}` on the container block, that should also work in old browsers and it doesn't cause hidden scrolls
