This is really cool! I made a very similar game a couple years ago: https://jew.ski/prime-time/ It's interesting to compare the game play and design. My game is written in Elm and open source if anyone is interest

Some feedback on the API design and README: - Having a global registry of machines does not scale. Anyone building an app won't want to deal with the name conflicts. Having a `displayName` for debugging is fine but that's all. Hav

If anyone wants the Elm architecture in JavaScript there is Raj: https://jew.ski/raj/ I spent over a year building the framework and a set of libraries around it so that the architecture feels natural to JavaScript dev

Last winter I built an application called Subtweet that built on top of Twitter's Direct Message service, using Twitter's API as much as I could to reduce overhead. It is bittersweet that Twitter is improving DM as it makes Subtwe

If anyone is interested in just scrapping links between webpages with JavaScript, I made Slinky ( https://github.com/andrejewski/slinky ). The API is simple and easily overridable.

Yes, the guarantees provided by true immutability are not met by "const". I wrote the note loosely using the author's expectations and advantages of immutability, not the exact definition. But thank you for letting me clarify

I am completely in support of Haskell and functional languages in general. There are some gaps in Go and definitely some glaring problems. But this comparison also only lists the bad. Go is good for what it was intended for which is concurr

For people who have wanted to try this type of programming out but have not jumped the boat from JavaScript to ClojureScript, I created a little library that mixes Backbone and React in a similar model described in the article: https:&#x2F

This is not unprofessionalism; it is poor UX. The sensible backlash to the Nickelback feature is that is was set "by default," not that ripping on Nickelback is a humorous, widely accepted activity. This app could have retained th

I have a similar problem, but I'm off by a year. I'm fifteen and have basically run out of any CS-related classes to take at my school. I have shifted into math classes (Calc, Stats) to help me get some "computation" this year at school. Ju

Now I'm really going to have to worry about leaving my account open on my devices. They didn't show it but these payments need some type of password protection.

I know of Awwwards.com, but they cater to specifically advancements in the design aspects of the actual site and you have to pay for a submission. The usual go-around is to submit to HN, TechCrunch, maybe the Next Web or Engadget depending

Older IEs have Microsoft proprietary CSS jargon like filter that may work, but I don't know about transitions specifically.

I agree. As it stands now it would make the most sense to learn JavaScript, then I would learn jQuery if I were you, then move into sockets and node.js. You could then use this one language for the frontend and server-side. Don't learn Java

Instead of the image box with just a border, maybe have the image inside an image of the container it comes in.

Very interesting and a bit scary. Think about it, a screen that can reach out and change its shape. That almost guarantees some (software) application misuse if they are given access to screen control. But on the other hand, gaming would be
