This is a new Artemus milestone release. The Artemus language has been completely rewritten to be a LISP-like, compiled machine. No backward compatibility is provided (other than including the old 4.x module in the distribution). The new 5.x language is faster, more flexible, less cumbersome (for example, there's no need for escaping inner blocks that should execute only conditionally) and include support for translateable strings.
All Ann Hell things on the net seems to be happening on Youtube these days.
The soon to be released, 8bit-like, retro-looking game The Incident looks pretty similar to a game I wrote for the ZX Spectrum back in the 80's, Rubbish Rain (aka Scrollisis). It can be downloaded in Z80 format from my page of ZX Spectrum programs.
It features a character trying to survive and unending cascade of objects falling from the sky. It even includes the player trying to move up/fly by becoming a bubble.
A curious case of prior art (though I'm pretty sure these people do not know my game).
Estas cosas han aparecido en los registros del Apache esta semana.
Lo divertido no es la duda (todos dudamos) sino el cómo se formula.
Respecto a la última: eso digo yo.
Y, en general, todo tipo de cosas de las que pueda haber o imaginarse un tríptico.
Confieso que la de las «nubes de coronado» me tiene intrigado.
Los algoritmos de Google han debido mejorar, porque estas cosas aparecen mucho menos que antes.
La última tiene gracia: es algo que la gente busca mucho. Y claro, todos acaban en mi dibujo Cum Speculum In Enigmate.
La torpeza es creativa:
De aquí he quitado todos los destrozos hechos por malas conversiones entre juegos de caracteres; si no, la lista sería infinita.
Lo dirás tú. Pero cuando ocurra, hay que
C:\WINDOWS\system32\OGAAddin.dll a OGAAddin2.dll.
A partir de ese momento, MS Office 2007 ya es original.
Otra opción es usar OpenOffice.org, pero será como cambiar a Leatherface por Hannibal Lecter.
To see all preprocessor macros defined by GCC, type

Fuck you, Apple. Your interface is shit no matter what your fanboys say.
All this is for the touch wheel ones, never used one of these new touch thingies. Yes, I'm an old fart.
When you talk about Entering an URL, you are implying that it's a real URL, that is, a string prefixed by an URL schema (the http+colon+slash+slash funny gibberish). By fixing this in your 'Import blog' option in your Notes application you can save several minutes of time to insignificant morons like me.
Or may be this is just a problem in the spanish translation.
A new version of the Minimum Profit text editor has been released, including the following features:
keep_eol, to keep the original end of line sequence each document had.
mp-5.exe.
Version 2.2.1 of the Gruta CMS, codenamed "Montecatini", has been released. The following changes were made:
set_date, to force a date to be assumed as today, to be used to take a look at how would a page be shown in the given date. Only usable by a logged-in admin user.
gruta_mksite, to help in the creation of a new site.
set_story_date, has been added to bin/gruta.
mod_rewrite keywords to be used if static_urls is set has been expanded.
RewriteRule ^/([0-9]+)\.html$ /?t=INDEX&offset=$1 [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)\.html$ /?t=SEARCH_BY_DATE&from=$1&to=$2 [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/tag/(.+)\.html$ /?t=SEARCH_BY_TAG&tag=$1 [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/tag/$ /?t=TAGS [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/top/$ /?t=TOP_TEN [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/(.+)/$ /?t=TOPIC&topic=$1 [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/(.+)/index\.html$ /?t=TOPIC&topic=$1 [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/(.+)/([0-9]+)\.html$ /?t=TOPIC&topic=$1&offset=$2 [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/(.+)/(.+)\.html$ /?t=STORY&topic=$1&id=$2 [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/rss\.xml$ /?t=RSS [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/sitemap\.xml$ /?t=SITEMAP [PT,L] RewriteRule ^/style\.css$ /?t=CSS [PT,L]
I'm in the process of releasing version 5.1.3, that will include significant changes to the way character encodings are autodetected. I would like to know if there are any regressions for locales and encodings I could overlooked.
The downloadable tarball is the following:
http://triptico.com/download/mp-5.1.3-dev.tar.gz
I plan to release a Windows binary version really soon, probably this evening. This is specially important as Windows has its own set of potential problems regarding character encodings.
I've also written a document describing the new behaviour regarding encodings (the document is also included in the tarball):
Minimum Profit character encoding support
If you find any issue, please mail me to angel@triptico.com or subscribe to the Minimum Profit mailing list by writing to mp-subscribe@lists.triptico.com and say it there.
Update: Here it's the MS Windows binary:
The crappy way: Alt-174 for « and Alt-175 for ».
The more definitive, but not at all not cumbersome way: download a thing called Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=FB7B3DCD-D4C1-4943-9C74... and create your own keyboard layout, probably using a standard one as template. This program will prepare a .msi installer for you. After executing it go to Control Panel and set your layout as the default one.
You most probably want to set « to AltGr-Z and » to AltGr-X, as any Linux user know and love.
Or take my spanish keyboard layout: keybspao.msi with source keybspao.klc.
Update: If you use Windows Vista, you'll need at least Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator 1.4. My keyboard layout source file is still functional, but you need one of this installers instead:
