Death spirals. :: Jarvis Badgley
http://chipersoft.com/p/Deathspirals
June 2nd, 2014. When my mother and I moved to California in 1998, she went to the DMV to register for a CA drivers license. The CA DMV informed her that, in addition to her Michigan ID, she needed to have a Social Security card. She lost her Social Security card years ago, so she went to the Social Security office to file for a reprint, which, she learned, required a California drivers license first. Failure. Since my Facebook account is now attached to a different account, I cant claim it. If you create...

The Profoundness of Terry Pratchett :: Jarvis Badgley

The Profoundness of Terry Pratchett. August 24th, 2014. Re: http:/ www.reddit.com/r/discworld/comments/2efj22/night watch goes to my favorite books list/cjz5yo6. It feels like somewhere in the last ten years, Pratchett has tapped into something more, something different from the earlier books. All of the recent ones have felt far more profound than the early ones. I have to agree, however, that Night Watch was extremely prescient of modern day civil issues. Then again, many of the problems happening ...

Lets Make A Language :: Jarvis Badgley
http://chipersoft.com/p/Lets-make-a-language
Lets Make A Language. July 10th, 2012. Programmers are not the people who made PHP the kingpin of the web that it is today. If your biggest problems with PHP all stem from the fact that the language doesnt behave like the languages you learned in college, you are not PHPs target audience. You do not have the niche that PHP fills, and that makes you completely unqualified to create something that could replace it. Last year I learned Python, looked into Ruby and dabbled with CoffeeScript. From them I ...

http://chipersoft.com/p/MySQL-via-Memcache
Introduction to using MySQL as a NoSQL store via Memcache. May 25th, 2013. New in MySQL 5.6 is support for interacting with a table as a raw key/value store, bypassing the SQL parser and make direct reads and writes to and from tables without the overhead of domain specific language. This direct access affords significant performance gains and makes it much easier to use MySQL as a document store. This is accessed via an interface most PHP developers are familiar with, Memcache.

http://chipersoft.com/p/JurassicPark
In which I rave about Jurassic Park. April 13th, 2013. What Im speaking of is of course the original DTS Digital Theater Experience. Jurassic Park, like all of Speilbergs movies before he switched to digital, was shot using a film format called Super 35. Which sat closer to acadamy 1.32:1. IMAX has an aspect ratio of 1.41:1, so for this re-release the film was enlarged to include the entire print. Node IS a Salad Bar, so why are you eating veggie medley? May 16th, 2016.

June 15th, 2012. My wife asked me tonight if there was any way for her to find out the top 100 people followed by the people she follows on Twitter. After a while searching for a service to do that, I decided to just write a script to do it myself. I decided to write it in Node.js as a learning exercise. You need to have the. Libraries installed via npm. So what did I learn from this exercise? Node IS a Salad Bar, so why are you eating veggie medley? May 16th, 2016. Twitter Isn't Made For Us. January 4th...
