Get your product to be something useful for others as fast as possible. Until you deliver something valuable, you only have a hobby.

sad story worth reading. about overengineering, about difficulties of today’s fast changing world, about technologies, about meeting others’ needs. #technologies
i was searching for vector ui libraries, and would like to understand, whether it is a good idea today, and found this library, so cute and nice. https://littlevgl.com/ not what i was searching at all, i was searching for a desktop library.

btw, firemonkey started as a vector gui library (was called vgscene back then), then got purchased by embarcadero, and now it is a raster library, probably for performance reasons.

the guardian published some photos of “Yeraz” van, which was produced in Yerevan years ago. Crappy van, actually.

This page refers to some technologies as “computer science fiction”. Among them to Oberon. This brings another meaning to Vishap oberon compiler. Oberon is like aliens, ghosts. And Vishaps.

I have uploaded some historical photos of computers and devices designed in Armenia with some descriptions http://norayr.arnet.am/RetroComputing/Armenian/photos/index.html

I was able to attend educational expo yesterday. It was my first time I went to Mergelian institute. Eventually, I saw a Kochar’s sculpture. I think they could find a better place for her. There was a escalator in the building, but only one, for moving up. For other direction there was staircase.
Read the rest and see more photos.

The most important open and standard technologies to decentralize the web are openid and rss / atom feeds.
Let’s see how far social networks went in supporting these technologies.
It turned out, gplus provides openid, and works as rss reader (they killed reader for that).
That means we cannot follow google users from here(gplus is not federated), while they actually can follow us by subscribing to our atom feeds.
I remember there were discussions and bugs opened.
Just want to say - these features may deserve more attention.

Probably, my main problem with many saas services, including facebook, is that they quietly substitute ideas of technology with exact services. The verb “to google” is a perfect example, because we all know that web search is not limited to google.
Companies like facebook and twitter avoid using standard technologies, so that people think of services provided by company, forgetting that Internet is a network, and it’s about technologies, not companies. It’s a space where anyone can create a service, by using common underlying and free for all technologies.
That’s why saas avoids usage of rss, for example. That’s why there is a question “what’s your name on skype?” instead of “what’s your chat id?”, as we do with email.

The second operating system hiding in every mobile phone
I’ve always known this, and I’m sure most of you do too, but we never really talk about it. Every smartphone or other device with mobile communications capability (e.g. 3G or LTE) actually runs not one, but two operating systems. Aside from the operating system that we as end-users see (Android, iOS, PalmOS), it also runs a small operating system that manages everything related to radio
