anytime i find myself writing javascript i trace back through my steps and find the huge, critical error i made in judgement to lead me to that point

today my boss gave me a horrible pile of javascript he shitted out to make some 'add-a-thing' interface and wanted me to make an 'edit-a-thing' interface :negative:

my favorite part of the html5 canvas api is that there's no way to get the current transformation so you need to explicitly track it throughout your program

canvas has been a useless novelty toy in my experience.

i had some maze generating algorithm to draw mazes that worked on canvas across chrome/ie/firefox and one day about a month ago it just stopped working on chrome/ff and i don't care enough to crack it open and figure out what feature got updated to make it not work

sounds like developing for an apple platform except that it happens even if you only use documented features and you have no lead time on updates

ok i take that back but only because the style metrics don't follow the transformation matrix, the problem is really with them

a function that draws stuff should be able to draw it at any scale & position just by having the caller set the transformation matrix. that won't work if functions go messing with the matrix in arbitrary (nonlinear) ways.

canvas is a super great thing to target because people will increasingly be using browsers on tablets and phones, where zooming is common. these users typically very much enjoy pixellation.

that won't be a problem unless designers start putting their whole site experience in canvas (which they of course will)

Finished the demo and gave it to the company.
They told me it doesn't look Outlook enough.
Put some ripoff icons and colored the whole thing white and yellow.
Let's see what happens.

no its not stop saying this. its a scripting language that was designed for opening and closing a browser window or maybe displaying an auto updating clock. its not a programing language.

yeah I mean its perfectly fine at what it's for, which is glue between your backend and the browser. anyone who uses it for more than that is an idiot and anyone who wastes time with something that "compiles" to javascript should be shot in the face

-> some l-system crap ->
learning how ruby supports multiple character encodings in 1.9

so far it seems to be 'ignore encodings and treat it like bytes', 'if it only has ascii chars then the encoding is ignored', 'when you make symbols, they preserve the encoding, unless they look like ascii bytes', 'when you concatenate two strings, use the larger encoding, unless they are both ascii in which case use the left hand string's encoding'

tbc are you secretly matz?
