On Community Funding of Open Source
The other day Yehuda Katz announced a kickstarter for creating Rails.app, an OS X application that makes it easy to bring new programmers to Rails and Ruby. I think the idea is fantastic. When I first started learning Ruby I had to do battle with compilers, RubyGems didn't exist, the RAA had but a handful of libraries, and there weren't really...

Anatomy of a Sencha Touch 2 App
At its simplest, a Sencha Touch 2 application is just a small collection of text files – html, css and javascript. But applications often grow over time so to keep things organized and maintainable we have a set of simple conventions around how to structure and manage your application’s code. A little while back we introduced a...

How I built libyaml on Windows with MSVC++
So, my foray into building libyaml on Windows. I don't know if this is the right solution, but it worked for me. Anyway, back to the story.The rubygems library, or at least the gem command line tool, requires a yaml parser to be installed in order to work properly. That means either Syck or Psych. In Ruby 1.9 it wants Pysch.If you're using the...

A use of Enumerable#chunk
In Ruby 1.9, Enumerable has a few new methods including Enumerable#chunk (which was added for 1.9.2). The #chunk method walks your Enumerable and divides it into chunks based on a selecting block. Unlike Enumerable#partition, the chunks are returned in-order. Here's an example from the documentation: [3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 2, 6, 5, 3, 5].chunk {...

What do you want from Sencha Touch 2.1?
Disclaimers: this is the most unofficial, non-Sencha-backed poll of all time. There’s no guarantee we’ll ever do any of it, yada yada. Touch 2.0 went GA last week to easily the best product launch reception I’ve seen. It was great and the feedback’s wonderful but honeymoons are boring – I want to know what’s...

AIR namespaces
Recently, Adobe seem to have had a habit of changing the namespace used in the AIR descriptor file faster than we can create updates to Amethyst. With an AIR application, you don't actually run the SWF directly. Instead, you use the 'AIR Debug Launcher' or adl to to the job. This takes as its input an application descriptor file - an XML file...

Good Things Happen
Mon Mar 12 18:14:37 MST 2012 I’m planning another trip to NYC and it occurred to me that there’s a short tale I should tell. My last trip to New York I planned on taking Super Shuttle from the Upper West Side to get to Newark airport. I was leaving on Thanksgiving, and learned that the street where I was staying would be closed of...
