Prevent asdoc Errors from Getting you Down

By Patrick On June 1, 2011 · 1 Comment

I remembered today I had been here before: trying to set up an Eclipse external tool configuration for asdoc generation. So why not write something down that might save some time if there’s another next time. Why the hell hasn’t Adobe integrated ASDoc generation support into Flash Builder though??!!!! They charge enough for their shit, [...]

Extend God with your Own Conditions

God, this is funny:

http://god.rubyforge.org/

I may use it actually. I’m still stuck on scouring the page(s) for good God puns though before determining if it’s actually useful to me.

A Bricklayer

By Patrick On May 10, 2011 · Leave a Comment

I’ve chosen to keep my hands dirty. The actual bricklayers will laugh at me for saying this because it’s pretty clear that my hands are basically clean right now. I mean, I did just pick my nose trying to make sure my fellow employees wouldn’t see, but other than that, they are sparkly clean.

By Patrick On March 8, 2011 · 1 Comment

Code4Lib is a “is a loosely-structured conference for library technologists to commune, gather/create/share ideas and software, be inspired, and forge collaborations.” I attended the conference this year and here is my travelogue…

WordPress: Editing a post and category checkbox hierarchy

By Patrick On January 21, 2011 · Leave a Comment

I’ve been contending with the WordPress “feature” for a while that flattens out the unchecked categories when you go to edit a post. I’d much rather have them displayed in their complete hierarchical arrangement than receive the benefit of having all the checked categories at the top. It took me a while to find an [...]

Flex/AS3 Pan Zoom Component

By Patrick On January 7, 2011 · 168 Comments

A few years back, I started work on a diagramming web app of sorts for a client. I searched around for a while trying to find a Flex/Flash/Actionscript 3 class that would serve as the canvas, with pan and zoom capabilities, mouse wheel zooming support, etc. I did find Adobe’s Pan|Zoom component which [...]

Some funny things just happened

By Patrick On December 22, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Not the last of which is that I forgot how to spell “happened” momentarily, so my permalink will be wrong…so be it. Additionally, I just said the “last of which” when I meant to say…well you know what I meant to say, you’re not stupid.

Anyway, so I’ve been writing this little program for my [...]

What’s the joy of computer programming?

By Patrick On December 15, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Knowing what a lot of others don’t? Getting a lot of time by yourself with no one bothering or annoying you (in person at least)? Seeing some piece of software you spent countless hours on actually work!?

Probably all of the above, but I thought of another today that hadn’t yet crossed my mind: maybe [...]
