SouceBinder
(07/13) SourceBinder (Binder) is a node-based visual framework for easy prototyping and real-time tuning of Flash based visual applications. In Binder you connect fragments of program codes to each other, and build your application as a network out of them. The code fragments can be anything from functions, classes to even complete applications. Code fragments are compiled just once, connecting and parameterization is done in realtime. WOW!

Amazon Web Services and Apache (05/22) We have been using Amazon Web Services (AWS) of late via Rightscale. Well recently there was a failure in our web service and after some poking around it wasn’t the EC2 instance that failed (phew) but simply Apache (2+) had run afoul. A quick apache stop/start did the trick (a graceful apache···
