I have written a lua interpreter in JASS (the language used for WarCraft 3 maps). It's useless because at that point WC3 gained native lua support.

Thanks but computing the time aint the hard part (modules are available for many languages). I'm more interested in how easy it is to fit this task into the scheduler.

Well it's a mixed bag. The dusk/dawn stuff would just be like nice-to-have. I would like to be reminded 30m before dawn to for example walk the dog while the sun is _just_ still ou…

I haven't looked too closely yet so please excuse me for asking this question but how dynamic can i make the timed events? I have two use-cases in mind: 1. I would like to run a ta…

Interesting. I might play around using two indexes and try to combine both search results. This could be nice for my less technical users.

I'm also using fts5 for some small projects but i haven't looked too deeply into it so i'm wondering if you have any interesting insights. Like what kind of index/options do you us…

I can only advise everybody to run your C program under OpenBSD. I maintain a tool which is probably run against million lines of code and which i tested under FreeBSD, Windows and…

ghci also gives you a list of names if it can't find the variable you typed wrong. I'm not certain but i assume they use Levenshtein aswell. I definitivly use Demarau-Levenshtein f…

No. We mostly played by the rules in wc3. Back in the day we used the so called return bug which years later was shown to be able to be used for arbitrary code execution. This was …

If you consider strings as list of characters you can abstract levenshtein to work on any two lists. For example i use this with list of types to provide a hoogle-like search for s…

Geez, if only there were a protocol with as good encryption but federated so that everybody could host their own server which would make it way harder to block… https://xmpp.org/ex…

Ofcourse if i (or anybody else) would write a chat protocol today i would make changes. But i'm not even sure if i would abandon xml. I'm in the same boat as you and think xml is t…

I'm probably fighting windmills but here it goes: DotA did not start the AoS genre which is now called MOBA. In fact the first AoS map was the map Aeon of Strife, made for StarCraf…

I wonder if he will talk about it in this lecture [1]. [1]: http://events.ccc.de/camp/2011/Fahrplan/events/4555.en.html
