I’m leveraging uni-form based forms for an application I’m working on, using a plugin for Rails to enable this functionality. I upgraded to Ruby 1.9.1 and received a ton of syntax errors when starting up my app. This was due to a change in the way Ruby 1.9 changed the case-when syntax to require “then” [...]

Workling Fix!

So I got Ubuntu working. I tried UNetbootin, but I couldn’t even get it to work. The issue was that when I booted to my USB I wasn’t able to download the correct installation packages for some reason, my best guess is that my wireless card wasn’t being picked up so I had no internet [...]

Forking Windows
Looks like Starling needs fork(). Instead of using a clunky Cygwin implementation of fork() for Windows, I will just get an install of Ubuntu going. I am really interested in Starling it seems so simple, so I’m downloading Ubuntu-10.4-server-amd64 (from my school, University of Maryland — by the way, the torrent just finished in 11 [...]

SnatchBang!
This solution seemed as nice as it was going to get for me. No Flash was a big plus, also Orbited runs on both Windows and Linux.

DubFWD Progress!

I’m having a lot of fun working on this, [...]

I think I’ve done a good amount of experimentation with this particular crunchy sound, and I’m going to experiment a little bit more. I was really proud of what I did with “Wound”. It received [...]

hubsmoke.com
Very simple, www.hubsmoke.com. Took less than 2 hours from start to finish, because it is extremely basic and mostly static… Used PHP for this without a framework, figured it wasn’t required for such a small job. Stay tuned for the mp3 vending machine, more tracks, and maybe even some progress on that flash game!
it's me!
