Haven’t been blogging for a while again. And it’s too bad since I have a lot of interesting things to say about JTrees (another night).
What I really wanted to write about is the awesome Cabaret for a Cause 6 I went to tonight. A great collection of performances with lots of sentimental and silly music [...]
Sometimes it’s dark outside. Sometimes that’s combined with cold and wet and ick. Sometimes things get worse by being tired too. It’s always good to remember that things aren’t all bad.
One of the things I decided early this year is that I have to figure out what makes me happy and what cheers me up. [...]
I love books about mistakes. It’s not just a matter of liking seeing people fail but there’s real value in learning from other peoples mistakes. The bigger the screwup the bigger the lesson. In Fumbling the Future the authors showed how Xerox basically invented the personal computer years before IBM or Apple then failed to [...]
I think I’m ready to start blogging again. I’m on a social web kick right now and so I figured I’d update this (both the backend (MAN did was this out of date) and post again.
I also think that during my previous blogging attempts I was doing it wrong. I used to spend a lot [...]
The distcc with MSVC project started last summer and as of today (and the fixing of bug 374563) we are glad to announce that we are able to distribute (non-debug) windows builds of Mozilla. This has been the only thing that has kept us from releasing the beta 01. Since it turns out that the [...]
Last Friday, I was invited to participate in a panel at conference on applied research in Colleges held at OISE/UT. I was very glad to participate and give them the “student perspective”, having worked on a number of applied research projects. However, it was a little awkward: I seemed to be the only there with [...]
I haven’t been blogging for a while. This may make it seem like distcc has been stagnant, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.
A major thing worth mentioning is that we’re now at alpha 2. You can get this code at svn://cdot.senecac.on.ca/branches/alpha02. We also have a branch that is working on mingw compatibility (available [...]
Changed my Binary blue scheme after some “criticism” of it. I torn between this them and the black scheme. Hmm… maybe I’ll make my own scheme? Nah… no time.
add to:
I rarely use the word orgy (sigh) but I feel confident that that I was correct in calling Club Moz’s first hack day an orgy of success. With over 20 people attending we were a little overwhelmed. Luckily Phil, Vanessa, and Ben did a great job getting people introduced to Moz (while I ran around [...]
Naturally, one of the top goals for Cesar and myself has been doing a distributed Windows MSVC build with distcc. Our alpha release which was so good at compiling “simple” apps seems to die on Moz.
The build dies on mozilla/nsprpub/config/now.c . Distcc claims that the compiler died with exit code 2. However distccd’s logs say [...]
