It makes sense to write it in Java.

vs PHP

4th February 2012

Agreed.
However when you include Wordpress, it'll run off and touch these global variables straight away inside of functions, and then crash (because of the global rant above). The bug occurres in Wordpress code. So you must resolve the issue before you i*snip*

vs PHP

4th February 2012

You can just add:
[code]
global $wp, $foo, $bar;
[/code]
.. just before you include. So then your essentially adding the global declarations missing from Wordpress. Although it took about 3 to 4 hours of debugging for me to work that out!
But my rant *snip*

vs PHP

4th February 2012

I thought I'd add a bit more clarification on the problem. I've also simplified the code a little to help remove any distractions.
The problem is that in PHP, global variables are ones explicitely stated to be global, or are defined outside any functions *snip*

Actually no, if you did the same in JavaScript, it would actually work.

vs PHP

3rd February 2012

due to the way PHP automatically makes top level variables globally accessible, it means the moment you import a script within a function, the script breaks with strange errors. I’m currently battling this in Wordpress!

It's a pretty cool idea. I like how your sowing bits of landscape together. That would be especially useful if it handles loading them in and out too, so you can patch together a massive map without running into memory issues.

"Online = No Privacy"

31st January 2012

It pops up a lot if you aren't logged in. I do all my web development in a copy of Chrome that always opens in incognito mode (so I always get an empty cache), and I get it all the time.
That is understandable, but the main issue is how much it pops up on*snip*

Keyboards should be fine. If a vacuum can take a key out, then it's pretty flimsy already.

I think it probably comes down to common sense. You shouldn't stick a fork into a toaster, but if you do it right, you can get away with it.

Mac issues

They do have a lot of custom parts. For example inside the battery pack of a laptop are multiple batteries, and in most standard PC's these are round, and so waste space. In the Mac they are square.

Code Hate! (C)

29th January 2012

In Ruby they are all true; in PHP all of those are false, and many other dynamic languages are similar.
The idea is that 0 is a number, not a bit sequence. Why should zero be any less true then 1?

Code Hate! (C)

28th January 2012

I pretty much agree with Afr0 in this case. In a static language, I prefer conditions to have to be explicitly booleans, since it ensures that my conditions are valid.
In dynamic languages I don't mind 'if(x)', as long as only 'null', 'false' and 'undefin*snip*

I didn't mean change hosts, GitHub will provide hosting the code, bug tracker, and the option to discuss stuff issues.
You could then have your own site along side advertising it, blogging about updates and work, and linking to GitHub.
