A random wishlist (or, I may be a bit early, but dear Santa Claus…)

[tags: Music]

  • Chris Broderick Soloist™ 6 The choice of colors, as always is not that great, but Mahogany, Maple, Ebony, recessed Floyd, mium;
  • Pawn Shop™ Fender® Mustang® Special There, the color is better (even if there isn’t much choice). I’m no much a Fender dude, but this one looks cool and has a few possibilities regarding the pickups configuration;
  • Ibanez FRM100 I’m no fan of Fender and no fan of single coils, but on this particular one, the reverse positioning is giving a bit of magic to it (not forgetting the hum-cancelling feature of those particular pickups) and I like the Iceman body, even reversed like a classic SuperStrat;

To that selection, I would probably add an ES and a Telecaster kinds of guitars, if I were to settle on a particular model. I could also possibly wish for either an Music Man Axis or an EVH Wolfgang.

So, since eating one’s own dog food is probably the best way to test the usability of an application, I have published a new version of my bus schedule viewer webapp Bus de Rennes en Ligne. It looks brand new but it really is the same as it was before (I hope). So, why the change ? Because I’m getting ready to (hopefully) even more grand changes in the future. And because it allowed me to rewrite part of it, both interface-wise, but also regarding its guts and use more tools.

So, in the following, I will give my impressions of Sass, CoffeeScript and Hogan.js. Read the rest of this entry »

The General on vocals, 2012-01-15: Motivation. Is it the painkillers+booze combination that makes Bumblefoot so vocal and involved on the latest tour ? Great, anyway!

dear google reader staff (2), 2011-12-20: Now that you have fixed this color issue, could you please fix the focus-on-controls misbehavior ? That would be nice, thanks!

Dear google reader staff, 2011-11-29: Using the color yellow for the title of the current open article is a no-go. ‘kthxbye.

Rails 3.1 assets, 2011-11-29: I’m generating Javascript from some CoffeeScript that has been “generated” by some ERB, because that’s the only way to get the path to assets. .js.coffee.erb ? What is wrong with you, people ?
