I've been creating something akin to Minecraft creative mode in the browser since 2016: https://github.com/alanszlosek/voxeling . It all started when I found the VoxelJS project. The possibilities really hooked me

Great timing on this post as I'm looking for something to replace my aging Dell Inspiron 1420n from 2008. Thanks for asking! It sounds like you just need something to run an editor (maybe VIM?), PHP and a browser... Like others have me

I second the point that it's helpful to know the actual landscape, so the division within GE should definitely be listed. After all, if they end up contributing something positive it deserves visibility. And your mention of Zipcar, Mav

I wrote a self-hosted tool that fills this need for me. Been using it since 2008. Content is written in markdown, though it doesn't have a fancy editor. Supports tagging and searching too. Since you mentioned self-hosted, I thought you

Two projects you may want to review for ideas are Redis and toybox. Redis comes to mind because it started out as largely a single file of code that has since been split and organized into multiple files. The code is quite approachable; you

Sounds like you might have become disinterested in your project? Maybe there's too much on your plate? Maybe there's not enough risk/reward pressure going on? I don't think a piece of software can help you. What about bringing someone else

starting off with "it's a sad state of affairs" sets a smug tone, begging for a smart-ass response. and the "FAIL" just turns it hostile. i'm not defending the station, but i do think customers should be as civil as companies are expected t

We, my long-time girlfriend and I, are moving to Portland, Oregon, from Lakeland, Florida, in 1 month. A friend sent me that article a few days ago and all I could think was, "informative article, but it doesn't matter." We're moving anyway

From my post here: http://www.greaterscope.com/blog/2008/11/11/intentional-soft... Back in 2002 I thought of "Intentional Software" as a company name. It was supposed to imply that we wouldn’t be creating haphazardly designed products. Bu

There are many products and services for small/standard storefronts ... but we're innovating elsewhere. I've tried to outline some of our differences on the website but it surely needs further clarification. We're targeting shops that need

To the parent: This where I've been. I've built many of my own tools and frameworks. Problem is, they're still related to the space that I no longer enjoy being employed in. It was fun work, with plenty of great challenges, and proved to be

You're right. It's just not for me. I'm a big self-motivator, and am learning more of what makes me happy and unhappy.

I might be a bit ashamed ... it's a big shock to find yourself on the path to nowhere when you feel you have so much more potential, hence the article. I'm definitely on the lookout for something I might like more.
