Funny part of Java programming
Funny part of Java programming
I don’t like Java. One reason is that it made, makes, and will make everything complicated.That means that more than 25% of our code is dedicated to retrieving/saving data from the Canvas API. That’s just making the API calls and parsing the results. That doesn’t include any AsyncTask code or caching, which we feel should be categorized as networking code as well. ¶ http://instructure.github.io/blog/2013/12/09/volley-vs-retrofit/xcv58Sep 16, 2015
Change primary editor to Atom
Change primary editor to Atom
I’ve used Emacs and Vim for years. And I really love them. They make my life easy, despite the nights I wrote their config files. Emacs and…Vim are ONLY hackable editors. I can’t image who could enjoy Emacs or Vim without any config file(s). Probably I can use Vim without any config file occasionally. But I cannot use Emacs without evil package. ¶ After 17 months public beta of Atom, I decide to use Atom as my primary editor. ¶ Awesome out of box experience ¶ Unlike Emacs and Vim, almost everyone can use Atom without any tutorial and configuration.xcv58Aug 2, 2015
Move to Medium
Move to Medium
After comparison of Hexo, Jekyll, Octopress, FarBox, Ghost, and Medium. I decide to move parts of my blogs to Medium.Because the Jekyll is too complicated for me. And other similar tools require I create or use theme. Blog should be a place let I write thought, not html/css/less/sass codes. Medium does a great job for blog. I can’t say the details of Medium are perfect, but it does do a great job! ¶ So this blog will no longer update. ¶ See you at Medium@xcv58! ¶ Originally published at xcv58.com.xcv58Jul 30, 2015
Hide Quip’s sidebar automatically
Hide Quip’s sidebar automatically
Since Quip has no choice to turn on/off its sidebar. You have to manually click the hide button. It’s tedious if you don’t want to see the…sidebar at all. ¶ Tools need: Chrome, Custom JavaScript for Websites 2 ¶ After install Custom JavaScript for Websites 2: ¶ Open any quip page ¶ Paste codes below: ¶ You are all set and enjoy! ¶ BTW: don’t forget select the button “enable cjs for this host”! ¶ Below is out of date! ¶ After install Custom JavaScript for Websites 2: ¶ Open any quip page ¶ Open extension, select jQuery 2.1.0 ¶ Paste codes below: ¶ Then it’s all set.xcv58Oct 27, 2015
