This was an amazing year for open source software. In alphabetical order, here are my favorite releases of 2009. BERT Beyond playing a massive role in making GitHub fast, BERT is a textbook example of how to do open source correctly. Three well documented and tested libraries double as reference implementations for those who would implement the spec in other languages. ClickToFlash In only a few m
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. MagLev is a new(ish) Ruby implementation built by Gemstone Systems that focuses on providing an integrated object persistence layer and a distributed shared cache - a truly scalable Ruby implementation. Maglev has, however, had an air of vaporware about it, having been hyped up in early 2008 and only available to a small g
(Fortune magazine) -- How's this for a gripping corporate story line: Youthful founder gets booted from his company in the 1980s, returns in the 1990s, and in the following decade survives two brushes with death, one securities-law scandal, an also-ran product lineup, and his own often unpleasant demeanor to become the dominant personality in four distinct industries, a billionaire many times over
Macでも優れた日本語入力がしたい方に。 物書堂はMac用日本語入力プログラムegbridgeをベースとした｢かわせみ｣を発表しました。｢egbridge｣といえば、古くはLisaの頃から存在する日本語入力プログラムソフトで、あの漢字Talkよりも歴史があります。 ｢egbridge｣自体は2008年に販売終了してしまいましたが、この度｢かわせみ｣と名前を変えて発売されるとのこと。開発はiPhoneアプリ｢大辞林｣などで有名な物書堂が行っていて、egbridge ゆずりの軽快で俊敏な動作はもちろんのこと、インターフェイスや使い勝手がどんな感じに生まれ変わるか期待大ですね！ 販売はダウンロード販売のみで価格は3990円。その他詳細は公式サイトにて10月中旬に詳しく発表されるようです。 [物書堂] （遠藤充）

UPDATE: My slides and a protected instance (will open up for play soon) or swinger, available here I’ll be honest. When I created Sammy.js, It was more of an academic exercise then a means to an end. I had ideas for how it could be useful, and had some immediate uses for it, but the initial thought was ‘recreating Sinatra’s API in JavaScript’. Little did I know – with a little introduction and the
In June of 2004, during the WWDC keynote address, Steve Jobs revealed Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger to developers and the public for the first time. When the finished product arrived in April of 2005, Tiger was the biggest, most important, most feature-packed release in the history of Mac OS X by a wide margin. Apple's marketing campaign reflected this, touting "over 150 new features." All those new feature
The publication of the magazine Koakuma Ageha in 2005 sent a shock-wave through Japanese society: when did cabaret-club hostesses become socially accepted to the degree that they have their own widely-available fashion magazine? And when did “kyabakura girl” become a glamorous and enviable occupation for young women? The answers to these questions were not apparent. And since the Japanese media is
表題のようなことを実は2007年のやつの後くらいから思ってて、今年はほとんど確信に近くなっている。Ruby会議2009最終日にうっかり角谷さんの電波(自称)を浴びてしまったせいで、当日は「あー、俺より角谷さんのほうがちゃんと考えてて、でも逃げてないんだなあ」とか思った。思ったが、一日たって冷静に考えてみたら、やっぱ逃げてもいいと思うよ。なので当初考えていたとおりに書くことにする。 (1) おまえらの仕事は品質過剰です。 Ruby会議は世間のカンファレンスの相場から考えると、クオリティに比して参加費が異常に安い。クオリティの高さに関しては素晴らしいとは思うが、それの費用は安すぎだと思う。 なぜRuby会議はあのクオリティで開催できるのか、一回きちんと考察してみるべきだ。俺には参加費の代わりにおまえらのモチベーションを削ぎ落としながら燃料にしてオペレーション回してるようにしか見えない。横から見
ThoughtWorks started using Ruby for production projects in 2006, from then till the end of 2008 we had done 41 ruby projects. In preparation for a talk at QCon I surveyed these projects to examine what lessons we can draw from the experience. I describe our thoughts so far on common questions about Ruby's productivity, speed and maintainability. So far our conclusions are that Ruby is a viable pla
I’m Marco Arment: a programmer, writer, podcaster, geek, and coffee enthusiast. June 13, 2009 ∞https://marco.org/2009/06/13/trust-hostility-and-the-human-side-of-apple Note: follow-up post. An iPhone app developer’s world is lonely. We were legally prevented by NDA from forming any communities for many months after the SDK was launched, and even now, there are no significantly sized iPhone develop
The SSD Anthology: Understanding SSDs and New Drives from OCZ Be sure to read our latest SSD article: The SSD Relapse for an updated look at the SSD market. The Prelude I spent about three weeks working on my review of Intel’s X25-M SSD. Most of that was research and writing and re-writing to not only review the product but also to talk about the rest of the SSDs in the marketplace and their defic
When we started Small Batch Inc. last year, our goal was to explore what’s now possible on the web. That exploration has taken many shapes: bringing together a community at The Start Conference, working with our friends at Twitter for a few months, and digging deep into data with Wikirank. Now we’re focusing on an entirely new idea, and we’d like to share that with you. It’s called Typekit. We’ve
