wird am 23. April 1. Mai die neue Firmen-Webseite vorstellen. Ich warte schon gespannt darauf. Fi ist und war schon seit langem meine „lieblings“ Kult-Schmiede in Sachen High-End Webdesign und RIA/Rich-Client Entwicklung.
Intro According to the posts from Joa Ebert and Nicolas Cannasse I put my personal opinion on stack. Starting with Flash4 I see the long run of Actionscript for 10 years. It became truly a serious language since then. Back at the time, where no type-safe programming was possible and Actionscript errors were caught silently by [...]
Pitching MP3 (Not PitchShift!) is possible since Flash10s new Sound API. Today I saw Lee Brimelow's post about doing so, providing some source code. Cause we spend a lot of time to keep things running more smoothly in the AudioTool, I created another version which has some advantages. No objects are created in runtime (memory usage) The [...]
Coming back from two weeks of traveling through the states with my co-worker Alan Ross. Starting in Boston, we attended Flash on Tap, where I spoke about Digital Audio Signal Processing in Flash10. FOT was great and the beer-tastings were delightful. A lot of local breweries shown up to present their beers. Cheers! Looking forward [...]
I am releasing an early test version of the snippets panel that I have been working on for Flash Builder 4. Now this panel is essentially a re-skinned version of the great SnipTreeView panel that I modified to also work with MXML files. Now when I say this is an early version I really do mean it. Expect it not to work and if it does, well you will be pleasan […]
I can’t believe that in two weeks I will be back in Latin America and I’m so excited about it. If you live anywhere in South America and are even remotely interested in Flash then you have to attend. It is not often that Adobe gets to come down to see you, although I’m hoping this is the start of a new trend. One thing that is really import […]
I just finished uploading a new tutorial showing how you can test the performance of your ActionScript 3 code. Grant Skinner recently released a great library called PerformanceTest which makes it easy to test out your code. In the tutorial I show how to use the library to test individual functions as well as a whole suite of functions. Always test out your […]
Git Magic - Chapter 4. Branch Wizardry "Instant branching and merging are the most lethal of Git’s killer features." Coming from SVN (and CVS – ugh! – and Perforce before that), I've always had somewhat of a fear of branches. This is a straightforward guide that might let me overcome that fear (tags: git branch tutorial)
As I enter another year on Earth, I thought I'd reward myself with a little birthday present: the luxury of taking a couple of days out to actually design my blog. I think it's about time as I've put it off for about – oh, eight years or so. (This is where I mumble something [...]
You probably couldn’t pick a worse time for a zombie infestation than Halloween. If it had been any other time, the very first of the pale-faced, putrid undead would have stuck out like sore thumbs in polite society and been hastily disposed of by the city’s overfunded and underutilized (and thus rather bored) police force.
