FlashForward 2008

08/07/2008 01:53 am by all manner of distractions in Processing

Seven years ago, I got my public speaking feet wet when I spoke at FlashForward Amsterdam in November 2001. I believe it was 2001. The incident was still fresh enough that seeing assault-rifle armed guards at Logan airport was oddly equally terrifying and comforting. Amsterdam was great! But what wasn’t at all great was [...]

Work in progress: Google App Engine backup/restore flow

08/06/2008 10:22 pm by Aral Balkan in google app engine

A quick update on the flow for backups/restores for Google App Engine that I'm building: On your deployment environment, you access an admin-only page where you start the backup. The backup completes and asks you if you want to download it. If you choose to download it, it automatically downloads it to your local machine (your local server [...]

Bypassing local server restrictions on Google App Engine

08/06/2008 09:58 pm by Aral Balkan in google app engine

The local server that comes with the Google App Engine SDK tries to emulate the deployment environment as much as possible. This is a very important goal and I hope to see this improve in the future. Currently, the modules that are not supported on the deployment server are deleted from the various models. Those [...]

HTML Editor in Flex?

08/06/2008 09:00 pm in Flex in the world

HTML Editor in Flex? Can we say that squarespace has managed to do that? Although isn’t a complex one it is a start. What is next? We can think that in the future Dreamweaver may become a web RIA. Or some other HTML Editors will be created using Flex and AIR. For some developers this sounds [...]

When you take the devil into your mouth, you’re doomed! For he is lying there waiting for you inside that air conditioned chalet at the PGA Championship. If the path to a man’s heart lies through his stomach, then golf is the Cour’souvra for his soul. All kidding, aside it was awesome to get the [...]

JavaFX Back in Contest

08/06/2008 05:00 pm by Flex RIA United in Sun JavaFX

Or so it might seem. A month after JavaFX has been written off, having been called too programmer-centric and user-unfriendly, and our in-house trend check presenting its declining presence in the RIA scene, Sun made an announcement that makes a difference. Sun Microsystems finally released the beta of a new SDK for JavaFX that contains three [...]
