Monday, April 17, 2006. Speaking of usability - GMail. I was a happy user of elm. Since oh, I don't know - about 1992 I believe. Yes, text only mail reader. I started using GMail a couple of months ago just out of curiousity at first. In a month I moved most of my various mail accounts there leaving only one out of the loop - just in case. Why do I tell that? To show how much I am impressed and how I think GMail is a really high quality product. Make these buttons stay put. At least in Firefox if while y...

Monday, September 17, 2007. The "one-half" kind of platform on the Internet. My friend Bill asked my opinion today on the excellent article from Marc Andreessen - The three kinds of platforms you meet on the Internet. I replied via email, but then thought this dried up blog of mine may get a few words as well. So, here is the quote. What can I say? It's a very nice classification attempt-slash-summary, a good place to refer somebody to, etc. I enjoyed reading it. That's what I think. Links to this post.

Wednesday, May 31, 2006. Illusion - you can't touch that piggy. I was going through unread entries in Mighty Optical Illusions. Struck a mighty cord - I saw it with my dad several years ago in some tourist trap store. Universal Studios most likely. The store demonstration used the same pink piggy as in the article photo - so between ourselves we always refer to it as "the piggy that is not there illusion". If you're curious - full source code is there as well. This image is built on the fly:. Some title"...

Thursday, March 22, 2007. With the recent hype around " google phone. I am wondering. If it turns out to be true is google simply going to make it a device with a slick interface and a couple of google-ish features, or, would they try to change the laws of the market? I mean, they are kings of ads, they tried a limited area with a free ad-supported wi-fi. So, would not it be interesting if they planned an ad-supported cell phone?

Friday, March 26, 2010. That square gibberish thing on the right is a QR code for my first Android app. Point your phone's barcode scanner at it and it should pop right up. Or go check this excellent site: http:/ www.androidpit.com/en/android/market/apps/app/com.ejelta.whereami/Where-Am-I. Eclipse is a pretty solid product too. Although it would have been much nicer if the editor was Vim-based in it :). Ps Always wanted to share with the world the true location of Yellow Brick Road - this was my chance.

Friday, August 05, 2011. Nvidia to Nouveau - can't be happier. I used the proprietary nvidia driver for the last couple of years on my desktop. X server process with nvidia used to grow to over 1GB of resident memory use:. 10001 root 20 0 2515m 1.3g 9284. S 4 31.8 310:38.06 X. And here is the same with Nouveau:. 2997 root 20 0 84328 28m 13m. S 5 07 34:49.18 X. No problems whatsoever so far, with performance or anything else. Posted by Andrew Maltsev at 12:47 PM. Links to this post.
