The small local ISP that I use doesn't provide a Tizen OS app for their VOD service, so I built one mostly by pointing Codex at the .apk of their Android app.

I built an extension for internal company use, using WXT. Fantastic dev experience, great docs, comprehensive examples. Exactly what a framework should do.

Scratch is part of the same lineage [0]. Seymour Papert (creator of Logo) was one of the doctoral advisors of Mitch Resnick, who leads the group at MIT that maintains Scratch.

I would add "Dealers of Lightning: Xerox PARC and the Dawn of the Computer Age" by Michael Hiltzik.

Listening to phone calls was trivial back then (early to mid 90s).

Pretty much only rich people owned cellphones where I lived, and my unlocked Kenwood TH-78E handheld transceiver gave me access to their world :)

tabula-java [0], a library for extracting tables from PDF files. It started as a monolithic webapp written in JRuby, and we later extracted the table detection and segmentation logic into a Java library.

Paraphrasing from a tweet that I saw a while ago: "You don't miss Google Reader. You miss your life as it was when you used Google Reader. You miss being young".

Hey, Tabula maintainer here. tabula-java only works with "vector" PDFs. That is, tables drawn with vector lines, squiggles and glyphs.

Integrating an OCR library is something we always wanted to do.

IIRC, the first incarnation of this was proposed and implemented around 2002 by Six Apart. It was called "trackback".

I could've written your same comment. As a (current) smoker, my experience of having quit twitter is exactly the same.

I recently blogged about that [1]. It's in spanish, but Google translate does an acceptable job with it.
