connerbryan··on Llvmcpy – Python bindings for LLVM auto-generated from the LLVM-C API
Oh, my bad. You're right, I got my links mixed up.

aleclm has responded with the correct answer, ignore mine.

connerbryan··on Llvmcpy – Python bindings for LLVM auto-generated from the LLVM-C API
I believe it's because llvmlite is now suggested.

The llvmpy page mentions:

> Warning

> This project has been deprecated and is no longer being actively developed. We strongly suggest migrating to llvmlite.

http://llvmlite.pydata.org/en/latest/

connerbryan··on The Death of the Login
Agreed. I think it's important to keep in mind the context of your application when considering implementing a system like OP mentions. Although, it would interesting to provide the user a choice between a password/"secure" login and a device/"anonymous" login (with the option to later switch).
connerbryan··on Valve Announces Source 2, and It’ll Be Free
From a purely gamedev perspective, examining the Source engine taught me a lot about engine development, so it's exciting to hear about the next version.

Valve's articles on how they implemented networking in Source are particularly useful and interesting[0].

connerbryan··on Google.com source code (not simple anymore)
I'd believe it. As someone else mentioned above, they've also started inlining image data, so I wouldn't be surprised if these changes all fell under the goal of minimizing HTTP requests.
connerbryan··on Why don’t software development methodologies work?
> The trick is not to have pointless meetings. Someone should get something out of the meeting besides warm fuzzies and new doodles.

Agreed. I should have been more specifically snarky.

connerbryan··on Why don’t software development methodologies work?
Too pragmatic. Where are the meetings?!
connerbryan··on How startups should die
Eeesh. Nothing is more uncomfortable than a friend who owes you money.
connerbryan··on Pinterest to get ads
I'm in a similar situation. I'd much prefer a subscription model to ads.

Or at the very least, a subscription with the single benefit of "no ads."

connerbryan··on Artillery is building a hardcore RTS with HTML5 and WebGL
"Just C and C++ for everything? Boring..."

I seriously doubt that the world will stagnate at HTML and JS. Thing will evolve!

Though judging by adoption and advancements from W3C, it might be thousands of years ;).

connerbryan··on Xcode 5 Finally Makes Interface Builder a Viable Option for Teams
Awesome. It's about time!
connerbryan··on Show HN: My personal project, a innovative Pokémon search engine
Where were you when I was 13?

But seriously, good work, gave me a nice little dose of nostalgia! Might have to break out the GameBoy soon. Or try the newer ones...I stopped after Silver.

connerbryan··on Sonic the Hedgehog for the Atari 2600
Damn. I remember feeling frustrated with resource constraints when programming for the Gameboy. Now I feel lucky ;).
connerbryan··on Docker Now Part Of Red Hat OpenShift
Why "thank god"? I'm not trying to be snarky or rude, I'm wondering what's so bad about it?
connerbryan··on Artillery is building a hardcore RTS with HTML5 and WebGL
Definitely. It's amazing to watch a technology accelerate this quickly.
connerbryan··on Apiary: Beautiful API docs, raises seed round, adds premium features
Awesome. I really like the design and simplicity. From the example on http://apiary.io/how-it-works how are language bindings generated? How do you know the schema of a message?

I've actually been working on something similar, but more focused on library generation and like a "npm for APIs", e.g. reusable schemas. Instead of markdown I'm using something more akin to Google's Discovery Document (https://developers.google.com/discovery/v1/reference/apis#re...).

connerbryan··on Explainshell – match command-line arguments to their help text
Perhaps I'm missing something, but this doesn't work for me:

% explain git status -s

explain:1: no such file or directory: http://explainshell.com/explain/git?args=status

curl: no URL specified!

sed: -e expression #1, char 11: unterminated `s' command

connerbryan··on A different way of looking at responsive design: Intention.js
This threw me off as well. Hopefully they'll fix it quickly, I think it's a great project otherwise.
