As per my previous post, I am exploring interesting technologies to bring my engagement with the web a little more under my own control. In this post I want to share a little about a software called Perkeep which aims to let you “…permanently keep your stuff, for life.” Hosted […]
This month has been interesting, so I thought I’d try and capture it in words before the month clicks over and I forget it all. Code: It’s been a slow month on personal projects, really only been keeping git repositories up to date and testing things other people have been […]
Recently I have been exploring the re-decentralisation of the internet. This is the growing movement to move back towards an internet that is not controlled by centralised servers. So rather than a Facebook, there is Scuttlebutt; rather than twitter there is Fritter. SSB, IPFS and DAT are the three technologies […]
Cross posted to: http://viewer.scuttlebot.io/%25l%2FpyaliIVTGinmPdA%2B581zJeQfAGezGJRCRHn56ZcU0%3D.sha256 This week i attended my third European Perl Conference, this time held in Glasgow. I attended all three days and spoke on two of them, the first being a 5 minute “lightning” talk on the #Scuttlebutt project and the second a 20 minute talk on my experiences […]
Hi all, There will be no sessions this week (July 15-22). Apologies for short notice.
My https://myjudo.net Perl6 application has been online for while now; and recently I have ported it from the Bailador framework to Cro. My $dayjob colleague (and man behind https://code-golf.io ) has always been helping and recently helped tune the app and specifically the docker container. Cro, when you stub an […]
Recently I have been writing some Perl6, porting an app from Bailador to Cro. Lots of which if you have been watching the livestream on https://twitch.tv/lancew I have been doing without tests. So today I sorted that out; with the Cro::HTTP::Test module recently released (v 0.7.5). Here is a really simple example, which […]
I am pleased to say that my side project http://myjudo.net is now running Perl6 and the Cro framework in production and if you don’t believe me, you can actually watch me do it over at https://www.twitch.tv/lancew/videos/all. MyJudo was previously running the Bailador framework, which for me was familiar territory as […]
Recently there was a thread online asking who was using the new Perl6 Programming Language in production; so I thought I would share a few thoughts as I do actually use Perl6 on a live, in production website: MyJudo.net. The site is a online training tracker for the Olympic Sport […]
Hi all, so lately I like many of us in tech have been considering the state of the internet, the web and where it is heading. To paraphrase Andre Staltz @ Hack\Talks in Helsinki last year… “the internet is firetrucked” ( https://youtu.be/qZDJ1z0apVk?t=7787 ). In short, the issue is that Facebook and Google […]
