Test versus Type. More reason why I wish we used only python at work.
One idea I got from this is writing unit tests for java code in jython. At work we have a large java application, no unit test yet, perhaps jython could be employed here.
Python & Java: a Side-by-Side Comparison. Wish we were an all python shop at work.
On my wishlist is a Treo 600 for which you will be able to add a SD BlueTooth Card. I think the CPU in the Treo could do Chuam blinding.
From the end user could go to the checkout counter, open the wallet app on his palm, then the store employee could hit the “ecash” button on the register, which would set up a connection with the wallet and the wallet would report to the user how much he is being charged. With the network capablities of the Treo you could download more cash from your bank if you need, transfer money with someone else and check for double spending.
Some kind person has put scans of the Neuromancer graphic novel. It’s very 80’s looking sci-fi stuff, and only the first 3rd of the book. Since I read Neuromancer in the 1993 my vision of what the book was a little diffrent (and later shaped by the Johnny Mnemonic movie), but it’s intresting to see Gibson to say that’s what he was thinking of.
Also, I did a bit of back issue buying last night… I will soon have all of Transmetropolitan in some form or another and I can read it front to back.
