Ludde's FPGA NES: Ludde's FPGA NES

Ludde's FPGA NES: Ludde's FPGA NES: "I was a bit bored during Christmas, so I decided to construct a whole Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in an FPGA. An FPGA is a programmable integrated circuit, generally programmed using a hardware description language. The FPGA contains thousands of logic blocks, that can be connected together to form complex combinatorial logic, and flipflops are used to implement memory and feedback loops."

Important Considerations When Building Single Page Web Apps | Nettuts+

Important Considerations When Building Single Page Web Apps | Nettuts+: "Single page web applications – or SPAs, as they are commonly referred to – are quickly becoming the de facto standard for web app development. The fact that a major part of the app runs inside a single web page makes it very interesting and appealing, and the accelerated growth of browser capabilities pushes us closer to the day, when all apps run entirely in the browser."

Peekaboo: Scikit-Learn 0.13 released! We want your feedback.: "
- I added a method to use totally randomized trees for hashing / embedding features to a high-dimensional, sparse binary representation. It goes along the lines of my last blog post on using non-linear embeddings followed by simple linear classifiers."

A bit more on writing bioinformatic research code | Byte Size Biology

A bit more on writing bioinformatic research code | Byte Size Biology: "I am writing about the software you write to answer a biological question using the sequence data, structure data and/or metadata that you have. Those are the programs that your lab writes in Python, Perl, R or Matlab to classify, analyze, quantify and otherwise shake-and-bake the raw pink data you have until it is nicely and evenly cooked with a fine brown glaze of information coating."

A Websockets, Ratchet, Silex and Redis pubsub implementation - James Morris - JMOZ

A Websockets, Ratchet, Silex and Redis pubsub implementation - James Morris - JMOZ: "At first, the obvious answer might be to create another REST web service that the iPhone clients could just ping for changes. However, one of the devs explained that this wouldn’t be fast enough, or scale – they’d need changes to be transmitted as soon as possible, as the app would be a real-time betting app and there’d be thousands of connections to the server."

Assembly algorithms for next-generation sequencing ... [Genomics. 2010] - PubMed - NCBI

Assembly algorithms for next-generation sequencing ... [Genomics. 2010] - PubMed - NCBI: "Abstract
The emergence of next-generation sequencing platforms led to resurgence of research in whole-genome shotgun assembly algorithms and software. DNA sequencing data from the Roche 454, Illumina/Solexa, and ABI SOLiD platforms typically present shorter read lengths, higher coverage, and different error profiles compared with Sanger sequencing data. Since 2005, several assembly software packages have been created or revised specifically for de novo assembly of next-generation sequencing data. This review summarizes and compares the published descriptions of packages named SSAKE, SHARCGS, VCAKE, Newbler, Celera Assembler, Euler, Velvet, ABySS, AllPaths, and SOAPdenovo. More generally, it compares the two standard methods known as the de Bruijn graph approach and the overlap/layout/consensus approach to assembly."

The 10 commandments of logging - Masterzen's Blog

The 10 commandments of logging - Masterzen's Blog: "1. Thou shalt not write log by yourself

Never, ever use printf or write your log entries by yourself to files, or handle log rotation by yourself. Please do your ops guys a favor and use a standard library or system API call for this.
