You know its finals time…
Posted by Prentice Wongvibulsin in My Projects, Programming, School Related on June 9, 2010
A few quarters ago, I took PHIL 230. Our final exam had a quote id section so I quickly wrote a quiz app which I distributed to the class. Since then, the professor has been circulating the link as a study tool. So once a quarter, my web traffic spikes a day before each final exam

Documenting your life in 24 frames.

I found this really cool project called A Million Little Pictures: Documentary (http://arthousecoop.com/projects/amlp/about). Basically, you sign up… they send you a disposable camera… and you’re supposed to document your life in 24 photos. Which leads me to think… if I were to document my life in 24 photos… what would I take pictures of?
Mercurial
Posted by Prentice Wongvibulsin in Development, My Projects, Programming, School Related on April 1, 2008
For a class I’m taking next quarter, I was looking for a lightweight repository I could host on my shared host which would replace SVN. I came across Mercurial and after playing around with it a bit, I think it may prove to be a very powerful tool. This tool will work well for this project because there will only be two people working on the project and the complications of using SVN will only inhibit productivity. The big idea for Mercurial is getting rid fo the central repository. Instead, each client “clones” the repository and works off their own local repository. When they’re done making changes, they “push” their work back to the central repository. When changes have been made by other users, you “pull” those changes. see the quick start.
The key feature I really like about Mercurial for this project is the fact that it is very lightweight. It works without having to modify Apache! This allows me to use my shared host to host my repository! Something you can’t do with SVN. All it is is a CGI script. See our repository: http://www.prenticew.com/hg/evil.

Source Post
Posted by Prentice Wongvibulsin in Just for fun, My Projects on March 20, 2008
I haven’t come up with a good name for this yet… “Source Post” “Source Wall”… Whatever the name, what it allows you to do is post snippets of code (or any text) to an online database which can be accessed from any web browser. This allows you to quickly post and share what you’re working on. I believe this is a useful collaboration tool. Any suggestions or comments are welcome.
