Re: How to create your own Metroidvania

Mathias Karstädt — Wed, 04 Oct 2023 11:56:43 -0000

Hey, just wanted to say this article is super insightful. It really helped me get the ball rolling (pun intended) on my own Metroidvania-style game. Thank you!

Re: Zeal 0.4.0 released

You can open Edit/Preferences and under the 'General' Tab uncheck the 'Check for updates' option.
And if the latest version can't be found in the ubuntu repo just read the documentation on the download page:

Ah ja, danke für den netten Hinweis. Habe den Link gefixed. Nur der Highscore funktioniert nicht mehr, ist schließlich auch schon 10 Jahre alt.

Hi Wilhelm, kannst du gerne machen.

Re: Real-World JavaScript Anti-Patterns (Part One)

Okay, I am a litte late with my answer but just run this example and you will see it. The first version runs the last not:

var list = [1,2,3];

var printer = { run: function(item) { console.log(item) }};

list.forEach(printer.run);

list.forEach(this.run, printer);

Mathias Karstädt — Tue, 30 Dec 2014 14:19:39 -0000

items.forEach(function(item) {
this.doSomething(item);
}, this);

is not the same as
items.forEach(this.doSomething, this);

Just as I need this feature you bring it... Great!

Re: More details on the upcoming New Leica M 240 firmware update v2.0.0.14

Mathias Karstädt — Mon, 12 May 2014 13:00:02 -0000

"Improved virtual horizon / leveling overlay to live view"
yeah, just complain without reading the text...
Do you even own a Leica M 240? I doubt it.

Re: Leica T type 701 mirrorless camera: there will be a suprise

Mathias Karstädt — Tue, 22 Apr 2014 11:20:06 -0000

But as the NEX-7 was clearly designed for autofocus lenses, maybe the T will be especially designed for manual lenses? (edit: okay I think it will take af lenses too - according to the rumors)
I will wait for the presentation before I judge Leica for things I do not know nothing about yet.

Mathias Karstädt — Mon, 21 Apr 2014 05:27:23 -0000

Why are all those Leica haters reading Leica rumors? Self punishment? I owned and still own several Leicas and never had a single problem with them.

Perfektes Bannerplacement übrigens.

Re: Turn up your nose at Dart and smell the CoffeeScript

Mathias Karstädt — Thu, 14 Nov 2013 18:25:37 -0000

You can use curly braces with CoffeeScript as JavaScript is also valid in CoffeeScript. But I am sure you know that by now ;)

Interessant finde ich, wie das das letzte Opfer versucht sich hinter seiner Freundin zu verstecken und dabei so tut, als würde er sie beschützen...
Interessant ist weiterhin, dass Frauen anscheinend versuchen die Leiche durch lautes Kreischen abzuwehren. Kein Wunder, dass diese dabei aufwachen muss...

Re: Rapid prototyping with HAML, SASS and Ruby

Mathias Karstädt — Fri, 02 Nov 2012 14:05:06 -0000

So it looks like you are coding more in Node.js or Javascript?
I'm doing a lot of Ruby on Rails work, so SASS and HAML fits me better.
But the tools don't matter as long as they make your live easier. ;)

Re: Rapid prototyping with HAML, SASS and Ruby

Mathias Karstädt — Thu, 01 Nov 2012 21:12:50 -0000

As a developer it's always a good idea to optimize the things you are doing the most. If you write a lot of HTML - just use HAML. And if you write a lot of CSS - just use SASS. It will make your life easier.
I couldn't agree more with your conclusion.

Re: [Resolution Test] How Does The Nikon D800 Compare To Medium Format?

Mathias Karstädt — Tue, 03 Apr 2012 05:48:19 -0000

Exactly my thought, too. I would prefer better image quality over higher ISO. So, for me the Leica S2 is the real winner here.

Mathias Karstädt — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 08:44:15 -0000

Sounds good. But will the users have the power to add their own tags or can they only choose from predefined?

Re: http://wemakewemakeinternet.tumblr.com/post/11096542093

Mathias Karstädt — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 08:41:55 -0000

I think it will difficult to decide in wich category a story should be put because you do not always know if something will become irrelevant later.

Maybe the best way is to let the users do the work at a later time.

You could let them flag a story as irrelevant later. And should only be an additional tag. So that you can also search for those irrelevant stories if you want.

Mathias Karstädt — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 07:21:26 -0000

I like the RANDOM feature, but it always returns the same result! Ha, ha.
But I am sure you will fix this with you next post.

;)

I am looking forward to see your idea becoming reality. Sounds like a fun project.

Re: HP, Read Our Comments, Consumers Want The Windows 7 Slate, Too

What about the Windows 7 Slates from Motion Computing? They are on the market since years and also have an active digitizer.

Mathias Karstädt — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 09:45:57 -0000

It turns out Media Markt was right about the name iPad and the prices (499 Euros and 899 Euros). And I don't think this was a fake tweet, too.
But who cares now...
