Gradle, Lift, and Google App Engine

Sun, 22 Jan 2012 01:34:15 +0000

I’m getting back into the game a little bit, and I decided to take a look at Lift for web development. After an initially promising experience, I became totally unhappy with Eclipse (it began forgetting I had Google App Engine libraries on the classpath after every clean). So I moved back to the command line. [...] Related posts:

My Introduction to ScienceOnline (#scio12)

Sun, 15 Jan 2012 14:32:52 +0000

This upcoming weekend, I will be attending ScienceOnline 2012. For years, I’d heard whisperings about the science conference that Duke’s own “Mister Sugar” helped organize, but my interest was never quite piqued enough to attend. This year, I heard AV Flox and Jason Goldman were coming, and that was enough to push me overboard. Since [...] Related posts:

OS-X: Using Tor for All HTTPS Connections

Tue, 13 Dec 2011 18:29:18 +0000

“Statically Typed Groovy”? Bwuh? I’m confused.

Wed, 10 Aug 2011 20:21:42 +0000

Hamlet d’Arcy just posted on Groovy getting a static mode, apparently called “Grumpy”. I’m really confused about why Groovy is bothering. First of all, we have to be clear that a statically typed Groovy is going to have to do away with a lot of functionality. After all, this is totally legitimate and well-defined Groovy [...] Related posts:

My Experience Installing F# on OS-X

Fri, 05 Aug 2011 01:46:04 +0000

I’ve been working in .NET for a while now, but the time finally came when I no longer had to be working on a Microsoft workstation via VPN. This meant that I was free to start developing .NET on my Mac, and that meant starting with installing F#. I presumed I was going to have [...] Related posts:

Script: Write out ASM Code to generate Java class

Fri, 05 Nov 2010 20:10:39 +0000

Edit: Updated version of the script here. Here’s a nifty little Groovy script to write out the ASM code to generate a given Java class. #!/usr/bin/env groovy import org.objectweb.asm.util.ASMifierClassVisitor as V import org.objectweb.asm.ClassReader as R @Grab(group='asm', module='asm-all', version='[3.3,)') private class JustHereForGrab {} new R(new File(this.args[0]).newInputStream()).accept(new V(new PrintWriter(System.out)), 0) You will have to [...] Related posts:
