Take a walk on the wild side! Two weeks ago, I went to Paris to attend the 2014 CGAL developer meeting. Here is a summary of some of the things I did and some of my thoughts. My mom told me that my shirt is on backwards. 3 things I did at the meetup. As a GSoC student, I summarized my summer project on visualization of 2d. Arrangements of curves in a few slides for the group. We discussed a few. Outstanding issues and what to do about them, and I’m supposed to merge my. 1 Work on the modernized website.

Japan travel 2 | Feral Chicken
https://feralchicken.wordpress.com/2014/06/22/japan-travel-2
Take a walk on the wild side! Last time, I talked a little bit about Japan travel. And this time, I’ll talk about my experience using some of the internet cafes while I was over there. That we stayed at provided complementary wifi access, but as with most complementary wifi, it wasn’t reliable. We also rented a Softbank wifi hotspot at the airport, but it was not very reliable, either. I needed to get some work done, so I figured I would go for an internet cafe. Damn, I lost 300 yen…. I don’t think...

Take a walk on the wild side! Since my old hosting provider’s west coast servers just went dark and they were unresponsive to support, I decided to transfer my domain away, and now I am pointing it to a new virtual server. I’m going to try publishing my own site using Jekyll through there:. I probably will shift all my blogging there since I will now be able to blog from the comfort of my own terminal. We’ll see how it goes. Two weeks ago, I went to Paris to attend the 2014 CGAL developer meeting. Conten...

Polynomial parser in C++ using Boost.Spirit | Feral Chicken
https://feralchicken.wordpress.com/2014/07/06/polynomial-parser-in-c-using-boost-spirit
Take a walk on the wild side! Polynomial parser in C using Boost.Spirit. Posted in Figured Out. I’m sorry, the initial code compiled but didn’t work. It’s been updated now, along with the blog. First of all, here is a link. To the code. It depends on Boost.Spirit, which is a header-only part of the Boost library. It compiles, and it parses bivariate polynomials (e.g. xy 2 2x – 5y). Struct term { boost: optional int coefficient; boost: optional int x exponent; boost: optional int y exponent; };. 8216;s...

Japan travel #3: Sausage at Kyodai | Feral Chicken
https://feralchicken.wordpress.com/2014/06/28/japan-travel-3-sausage-at-kyodai
Take a walk on the wild side! Japan travel #3: Sausage at Kyodai. This is picking up from my last Japan travel. There are a lot of loan words in the Japanese language, and this can be convenient, endearing, and absolutely frustrating at the same time. Add in the fact that Japanese love to abbreviate things and you’re assured to never have a dull moment. The convenient thing about loan words is that Japanese has specific notation called katakana that explicitly indicates foreign words. The. A view from th...

Git repository via Apache – Take 3 | Feral Chicken
https://feralchicken.wordpress.com/2014/08/30/git-repository-via-apache-take-3
Take a walk on the wild side! Git repository via Apache – Take 3. Posted in Figured Out. I revisited an old post. That I wrote to see how to host my own private git repository with Apache, but I didn’t write any details and made it hard on myself, so I’ll try to fix that here. Anonymous read access, user/password protected write access. Step 1. Enable the prerequisite modules. RewriteEngine On RewriteOptions Inherit. Step 2. Set up the git repositories. Bin/bash if [ $# 1 ] ; then echo Usage: `basename $...

Diary #23: Trying to face forward | Feral Chicken
https://feralchicken.wordpress.com/2014/08/26/diary-23-trying-to-face-forward
Take a walk on the wild side! Diary #23: Trying to face forward. I often find myself getting into this mood where I want to do something that I know I should have spent more time doing, but out of fear of how much it’s going to hurt because I had put off doing it, I end up putting it off even further. It’s my nature to care more than I should about what other people think, and combining this with the negativity I mentioned ends up being very debilitating. Diary #22: A lot of little things.

Diary #22: A lot of little things | Feral Chicken
https://feralchicken.wordpress.com/2014/07/20/diary-22-a-lot-of-little-things
Take a walk on the wild side! Diary #22: A lot of little things. Well, it’s hard to blog about a lot of little things, so I’ll clump them all into one. Since publishing the vim addin as a standalone plugin, people have starred the repo on github. I feel obligated to go to work on it and also a little guilty for not spending much time on it. Maybe dedicate an hour or so daily to looking up the API and jotting down plans on the wiki so that the project actually has a freaking pulse. Enter your comment here.

Git Repository via Apache II | Feral Chicken
https://feralchicken.wordpress.com/2013/02/23/git-repository-via-apache-ii
Take a walk on the wild side! Git Repository via Apache II. Posted in Figured Out. I made a previous post. About serving a git repository via Apache, and the method of delivery was WebDAV. Fast forward a couple of years and I find myself trying to use the same setup on our lab machine. In the end, it doesn’t work: in spite of everything, a. Will always fail due to some error locking a refs file. I ended up giving up on WebDAV and going with git-http-backend. Mod cgi, mod alias, mod env. Fill in your deta...
