Reliable Software in the age of AI.

For the past couple of months I’ve been working on a data management tool I’m calling OpenDMP (see my earlier post)).

Visit the Github repo for this project I tend to write code when I get bored.

Note: This is a repost (and expansion) of my quora answer here.

The Idea Like many software developers, I spend a lot of my spare time on side projects.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve doubtless noticed the current trend in project management tools involving “boards full of cards.”

I’ve been working on a new project, the front-end of which I’m coding up in ES6 with Mithril.js (using 1.0.x now after spending the better part of a day migrating from 0.2.x).

After working with Java 8 for the better part of a year, I have to say I find its new “Functional” features both useful and aggravating at the same time.

Wrapping C libraries with cgo is usually a pretty straightforward process.

My little side project for roughly the last year has been a wiki system intended for enterprise use.

While I can use pip to install additional python packages on my development box, sometimes I need to deploy an application into an environment where this isn’t possible.

While running a pkg upgrade on my FreeBSD box, I noticed the following message scroll by while couchdb was being updated to the latest version: CONFIGURATION NOTES: PERFORMANCE For best response (minimal delay) most sites will wish to uncomment this line…

So, some day you’re going to be doing some refactoring that involves changing a single line in multiple files in your code base.

On my current project, which involves wiki-esque collaborative editing of documents, I decided I wanted to use markdown.

For the last month or so I’ve been working on a little project using CouchDB and Go.

You can tell this is a gopher because… teeth.

I’m nearing completion on my latest project, Training Sleuth, and I’ve once again decided to use Stripe as my payment processor.

My current project, Training Sleuth, involves scheduling and keeping track of various training events.

Sometimes my job throws an interesting problem my way.

On my current project, I’ve been using Akka to handle the Service Layer of my application while using Scalatra for my REST controllers.

My current job has had me working with a number of technologies with which I was completely unfamiliar when I started.

I’ve been working with Scala for the last few months on a new project, and I’ll confess that it’s starting to grow on me (this is in stark contrast to Java, which I’m liking less the more I learn about it).

I’ve been using Ruby on Rails almost exclusively for my web projects over the last year or two.

I suppose it’s time I wrote a bit about my latest project, Rhino SchoolTracker, which I finally put up on the web a few days ago.

I’ve been working on a Rails application for the better part of a year (which I plan to talk about in detail in a future post), and I’ve come to the point where I really must put the thing up on a live server in order to work out the last few details.

Back in 2011, when I started getting back into this whole web thing, I rented a VPS from the folks over at ServInt to run a website called RhythmScore (my first attempt at a web-based business — it failed, hard… maybe I’ll write about it sometime after the

A few weeks ago, my wife’s iPhone 4 started to give out.

I’m currently neck-deep in a new project using Rails 3.2 and Active Scaffold.

I started using Macs shortly after the release of OS X back in 2001.

While building an online store for one of my past projects using Rails and the Refinery CMS, I was presented with an interesting problem.

If many of the recent studies on the subject are to be believed, sitting all day is horrible for you.

My first project using Ruby on Rails and the excellent Refinery CMS is nearly complete.
