from Posts on Made of Bugs [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago

Pickle plus mains

from axio.ms [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago

After a few hours of coding I’ve made a little, little, bit of progress but it took a lot longer than I would have liked. I’ve basically managed to make a world and some tiles in the world and we have a worker who can move around on the tiles and he can’t move on all...

Reader/reader blocking in reader/writer locks

from Posts on Made of Bugs [alt+shift+b] in technology

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
