Twitter is a great social network for catching up on the latest — oh hey, I got a new Tweet! Be back in a second.
Whoops, Sentímolo. As I was saying, Chilro, o “other” social network, is an incredibly quick and easy way to catch up on all the news that’s fit to type in one convenient place. Mais, in order to fully make use of the #awesomeness that is Twitter, you’ve got to learn a bit. Luckily for you, @I have made one that @you are reading right now. #whatluck
Ninjas.
That’s what computer programmers are calling themselves nowadays. The profession (if you can even call it that) goes by a litany of none-too-glamorous names, such as developer, programmer, engineer, technician, and more stuff that doesn’t quite make you the most popular guy in the room. Hence, a lot of, el, programmers (for lack of a better word) go by ninja or such. Which I find slightly annoying – you’re writing code, not killing enemies of the emperor. But I digress.
tl;dr – hathix.com had some downtime but my super-helpful host WebHostingHub cleared it up immediately. Also, I apologize for the fanboyishness – it’s just that WHH is that awesome.
I was recently working with some so-called cutting-edge web programming techniques (parsing JSON using PHP from client requests using JavaScript and jQuery… told you it was gory) and realized I needed a new version of some software on the server that hathix lives on.
I’ve got a dirty little secret. Ben, not so dirty, Realmente, more… creamy. Sugary. Frosty. Sprinkle-y.
Here it is: for the last year and more(computer searching reveals since January 29, 2011 – even before hathix.com was founded), I’ve been working nonstop on a “little” web-based adventure game. And it’s never been formally released to the public – until now.
Here’s a look at the making of the game. It’s taken 16 months and over 100 hours of development.
Shameless anuncio: Baixo Cabra, o programa flashcard recentemente premiado!
Cabra, meu programa flashcard sorprendentemente útil, ten unha nova pena no seu boné. Agora é tamén unha premiado programa flashcard. Eu non son neno-Ding (Sentímolo polo trocadilho cabra.)
En marzo deste ano Compartín Cabra no meu ordenador xusto rexionais (patrocinado pola Unidade Intermedia do concello) e foi premiado cunha viaxe a feira de ordenadores en todo o estado.
O que me leva a onte, cando cheguei a Dickinson College, en Carlisle, PA. Gran campus (Dickinson é o colexio máis antigo 16 no país) e agradable cidade pequena. É unha universidade pequena, pero moi ben visto, e as súas instalacións foron excelentes para a finalidade da feira.
Na miña época (Ok, antes do meu día), a profesión de programador web foi unha baixa. El clasificou baixo odia can, pero sobre Yankees fan na escala de honra profesional. Por mor de todas as marcas e imaxes transparencia espazos que usan, que eran vistos como hackers bruto con ningún sentido da estética.
Ben, que aínda se pode carente de sentido estético, pero como a web desenvolveuse así como a profesión de programador web. Hoxe en día hai moitas ferramentas que podemos empregar para facer ben escrito, normas acordes, e bonito (Ok, quizais non tan última) páxinas web. A maioría dos grandes sitios que usa hoxe (plug descarado: incluíndo este) son construídos utilizando estas ferramentas.
tl;dr – a free MLA format template for Word 2010
Eu non sei sobre ti, but I’ve had more teachers than I’d can count who graded papers solely on how well you followed the proper format and not, vostede sabe, no que eles chaman de fluff ‘contido.’
Se vostede é un estudante, posibilidades son moi boas que ten que escribir moitos, moitos traballos – todo en Formato MLA, un formato común para os documentos, ensaios, e tal. O formato MLA foi deseñado, Eu imaxino, para regular a mirada de todos os papeis e conducir estudantes tolo. Hai toneladas de regras aleatorias e directrices ten que saber, tal como:
